PEDESTRIANISM.
Metcalfe, the, tailor, started yesterday morning at Shepherd's
Rush, to run a mile in four minutes and fifty-five seconds. The
race was over a half-mile piece of ground, and although the man
did the task well within the time on trial, yet time was backed at
two to one before the start. In running the Sest•balf mile the pe-
destri4n broke down, and he was six minutes doing the mile.
