UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT.

A Bnnftway Stood Drownod In

£ho Harbour.

Onf, result of a severe hailstorm this after noon was the loss of a valuable mnro and buf'Ky, belonging to Mr Freeny, of the "Railway Department, Tho marc, with vehicle attached, was left standing alongside one of tho sheds at tho ond of tho Railway Wharf, when suddenly a heavy fall of hail occurred. There being no person in charge of tho nuimal,-she took fright and bolted down tho wharf. Going too near one sido of the pier, she stepped clean over, and fell into tho water dragging, the vehicle behind. There appeared every prospect that the mare would bo drowned, and several persons put oft' in order to render any possible assistance. Unfortu nately, tho blinkors came of, and t'.iis caused tho mare to plunge, and she con sequently narrowly escaped drowning. Eventually she wns got clow1 of the vehicle and brought ashore, but she died soon after, The buggy, which is much damaged, lias not yet been recovered, and tho total loss to Mr Frceny is a serious one.

ASSAULT IN VULCAN LANE.

Some sensation was caused in Vulcan Lano and its neighbourhood this afternoon by an assault on Mr J. D. Wickham, news paper proprietor, by Dr. Harrison, agent for Mm Dr. Potts. The circum stances as related to our reporter by Mr Wickham are as follows:—Ho was in his office shortly beforo four o'clock, when Dr. Harrison came in and enquired if he published the " L'Entre Acto" in connection with the Theatre, and being answered in the affirmative, inquired the price per inch of an advertisement. Some conversa tion ensued concerning the insertion of the notice in question, and Dr. Harrison then asked the name of the writer of a^ letter signed Figaro published in " L' Entr'Acte.' Mr Wickham declined to furnish tho infor mation required, when Dr. Harrison recom inoruled him to take oil' his coat, as he would have to tight him. Mr Wickham explained that he had no desiro to make a blackguard of himself, whon he was made the recipient of a sudden blow from bis interviewer, and tho next moment his face was corered with blood. Mr Wickham immediately locked the doors, and, sending for a policeman, gave Dr. Harrison into tho custody of Sergeant McMahon. The scene had at tracted numbers of friends of both parties, and they proceeded together to the Police Station. Some difficulty then ensued as to whether Dr. Harrison was legally m custody, the law providing that before an arrest can bo made tho officer must have witnessed the assault, or it must have been committed with some other weapon than the fist. Dr. Harrison asserted that the blow was with his closed hand ; and if it is true, proceedings must be in tho form of a summons. The injury to Mr Wickham had not been examined at tho time of which we write, but there was a nasty cut on his head, while his hair, face, and clothes were bepactered with blood.

Arrest of tne Assailants.

The facts having been placed before Supt, Thomson, he ordered the assailants into cus tody, and George Edward Harrison, Kiehard Cole Aspinall, and James Millet were accord ingly locked up on the charge of unlawfully assaulting John Dickson AVickhara by striking him on the head on the 11th mat.— Aspkall and Millet, it is assorted, kept the door closed, and held Mr Wickham while Dr. Harrison assulted him.

E.S.]

When the Helensville 4.30 train from -Auckland wan within a couple of miles of Henderson's Mill on Monday afternoon last a man fell from the first carriage, nearest the engine. Ono passenger who saw the accident expresses surprise that the guard did not stop the train to look for him, although the engine-driver shut off steam and put on the break, because of a signal from tha passengers, until he wui " waived on" a<*ain by the guard, who, when he arrived at Henderson, went on without taking notice of the matter, except saying that one of tho line-men would go back and see about it. On tho other hand, it is stated that the train was going very slow at the time, that the man fell off whero several platelayers were working, that he was observed to stand up, evidently un hurt when the train passsd, and that he went on to Helensvillo by the next train. -He stated that he had accidently fallen off the train while engaged in conversation with others. The fall was short, and he sustained no injury whatever. The circum stance calls for some inquiry. Unless very good reason indeed is shown, tho tram ought to have been stopped. —A Galveston child, little Charlie, was hiving a wordy war with his nurse. His fither sang out, " Now, Charlie, are you going to be quiet, or shall I come with a switch?" Never mind the switch, papa," responded the y-ungster ; "I can set her right without your help." An intelligent farmer being asked if his horses were well matched, replied ; ' Yea; they are matched .first rate; one of them is willing to: do all the work, and the other Js I filling that he should. ~,-. ■

LECTURE BY MRS DR. POTTS.

Tne lecture by Mrs Dr. Potts on " Hus bands and Wives " last evening, was thinly attendod, the announcement that no gentleman would be admitted unless accompanied by a lady, having, no doubt, hndftdotorrent effect. The lecturer reviewed tho obligations of the marital condition and the different duties which nature and custom have assigned to each of tho sexes. The greater portion of her lecture, which was delivered with groat fluency, was occu pied in speaking of the uterine diseases to which women are liable, and tho means to be adopted for their prevention and euro.

Tho wind, which had been blowing from tho south-wost for soveral days, suddenly chopped round to tho westward about eleven o clock this morning, and during tho day soveral severe squalls wore experienced from that quarter. Vessels in harbour were very slightly affected, however, Uiemnioiity being woll shultcred. lho Mystery, a small ketch, loaded with shingles, drifted from her mooflwgs and came up against the Queen-street Wharf. She was, however, soon hauled oir" into a safer position, tho only apparent damago being the loss of a portion of her bulwarks. Tho cutter Evening Star, which was lying off Freeman's liay, also came down before a heavy squall, but, after losing her bow sprit through coming in contact with obstaclas during tho trip, ahe drifted into a position of security to lcoward of the dock, where sh» was made fast.
