A shocking tragedy occurred at a spot on the bar.ks of the Murray, near Yntyner Station (Victoria), Donald McDonald, a fisherman, was discovered shot through the bead. The discovery was made by a station hand, who was riding down the J river. He called at deceased's hut to i^et some cartridges, and on entering found McDonald's body lyiug across the buuk, and covered with bed-clothes. He moved a coat from the upper portion of the body, and to his horror found deceased's face terribly riddled with shot, and presenting a shocking sight. bo far there is no clue to the murderer, who had ransacked the place, and stolen deceased's watch, money, and bank book. The murdered man was very industrious, and is said to have done very well at fishing, earning as much as £5 and £6 per week. Richards & Co. have just to hand several varieties of the very earliest Potatoes, among which will be found the Chicago Market, Fidler's Victory, Giant King and the Bruce. This extraordinary Potatoe is now on sale for the first time in New Zealand, and with a limited quantity, should not be missed by gardeners. Full particulars can be had from Richards &Co.
