DUNEDIN.
(From our own Correspondent.) This clay. Insurance Company Losses.
By the Sandridge fire the New Zealand Insurance Company lost £1500 ; the South British, £1500; the National, £1000 ; and the Standard, £10,00.
The Northern escort now comes down only each second month. There are comparatively small gold returns, which is attributed to bad roads. Goodyer, Beird, and Logan, proprietors of the Cromwell Company, divided £1600 since Christmas. The last crushing yielded three ounces to the ton. Choked with a Piece of Meat. At Queenstown a man named Smith, proceeding to Kingstown, was eating meat on board the Antrim steamer, when a piece stuck in his throat choking him. At the inquest it was statei that the piece was two inches broad and one thick.
The "Satirist." A paper, to be called the Satirist, is to be published here shortly.
