Two men, named John Cook and Eric Wickstriam, in the employment of Mr Hutcheson, of the Shag Valley coal-pit, near Moeraki, were drowned by the upsetting of a boat on the I9th inst. A cure for chilblains la given in the Waikouniti and Shag Valley Herald of Wednesday last. u lt is simply to moisten chilblains,, when unbroken, with strong sulphurous (not sulphuric) acid, and if continued morning and night r or whenever troublesome, they will nover bo severe, and will probably soon disappear. Sixpence worth will last several weeks, and will thus bo cheaper as well as more effectual than any of the advertised cures ; at least it has beeu found so by one who was a sufferer. ”
