CHRISTCHURCH.
This day. The criminal statistics for the year 1882 show that during that period 2990 offences were reported to the police, as against 2008 in 1881 ; 2714 persons were arrested, as against 1927 in 1881. There was a very heavy thunderstorm atWekaPass, near'Waikari, last evening. Immense streams of water flowed down each gully, and the train had to proceed very cautiously. Some damage was done to the ballasting, and a portion of the formation was carried away. The rain was confined to a small portion of the district, and as most of the crops are in stack at the particular spot, it is hoped the damage will be small.
