A lively runaway took place ON Second street,
about halfpast O'clock yesterday afternoon.
A double team, evidently from the country,
came up from the direction of NJ street, at a
furious pace At X street they turned towards
the Bank Exchange Saloon, and would have
wrecked the place had they not collided with a
large telegraph-pole, which put stop to their
mad career Both horses were thrown down,
the neckyoke, whiiiie-trees and harness broken
but otherwise no damage was done. The crash
was a terrific one, ana those who saw it were
surprised that both horses were not killed.

you in the Strand, not he added, but
what I'd give it back to you for you've
been very kind to me. Would you like to
know how to prevent your watch being
stolen p he continued; just let me have
it for minute" Curious to learn use
full hint, | was about to draw my watch
from my pocket, when | found it was
already in this experts hand, without my
experiencing the slightest touch. He
then explained to me that the most APP
proved method Of detaching watch from
its owner was to hold the ring to which
the chain was attached firmly between the
finger and thumb, aud theu, with sharp
twist, snap the steel pivot connecting
watch and ring, leaving the ring ON the
chain and the watch free in th. thiefs
hand. \ dead loss' (fhe ring, he added,
with cool efirontery, " to US of six shill-
ings." He then showed me that, if the
ring ard watch were connected by swivel
joint. the difficulty Of watch stealing
would be increased so much as to make it
scarcely worth the risk London Standard.
