LIE STREET RADwAY.-The cars have been run
ming on the Wentworth and Rutlodgo street line
for some days, and have only addod to the general
satisfaction with which this enterprise has been
greeted by~every citizen. The distant localities
are now brought within easy communication with
each otier and business men have time to
digest their meals and take pleasant ride instead
OF toiing through the dusty streets foot, While
all Of the conveniences are gratefully appreciated
and the institution well patronized by the travel
ling public, yet it appears that the labor Of pulling
car load Of passengers is rather hoavy work for
one horse, and although the cars are triae small
er they can BE- made to hold the same number, for
their capacity is elastic

Ma. EDITOR: regretted much to see in yonr
issue Of this morning letter, signed by one oi
my patients, who, without my knowledge or con
sent, gave to your readers an expression Of her
thankfulness for benefits received. Such comnau-
nications through the public journals are rightly
condemned By the profession as tending to char
latanism, and are always annoying to the persons
named. Patients who adopt this method OF giving
vent to their feelings of gratitude, however good
their motives may be, do injury, and not benefit
TO their medical attendant.
