RETURNING TROOPERS.
Of the troopers whose return has been so anxiously looked forward to, Trooper B. Reed is the only one who has returned up to the present. He was entertained at a social last week, and is looking fit and well. Troopers Frith and Peakman expected by the steamer yesterday, but did not arrive. Very general regret is felt at the sad death of Trooper McKechnie just as he landed in New Zealand, and much sympathy is felt for his parents. THE BAR.
