A REMARKABLE DREAM.

(From the "Kumara Times.") One of thoao singular and remarkable dreams that we sometimes read about but rarely are able satisfactorily to prove, transpired a few days ago. In all dreams, there are two parties directly concerned the dreamer and the dreamt of. In this case the former is a miner working at Reefton, named Mathew Walker; the latter was poor Win, M'Levie, whoso existence in this world terminated last Wednesday morning. M'Levie waa injured, and as it proved, fatally on Thursday, September 5Lh, in a claim on the Kumura goldlield. Walker, an intimate friend of M'Lcvie'a, and at the time living at Reefton, dreamt on the Friday night following that M'Levie was killed, and that he had no mark on his body showing the immediate cause of death. So 'concerned was he about the dream, that he told all his mates of it, who, of course, rogarded it not. But it proved to be true, or nearly bo, and M'Levie's body remained until aiter death without a mark to show the injury he had sustained by the accident. The two places are apart ub the crow Hies not less than 50 miles, if we give the most direct route by road thoy are (JO miles distant. Walker had no means of knowing of the casualty which hud hefcdien M'Levie, for death not being immedijate, and, in fact, the injury not boinjj considered at the time even more than, a severe shaking, no telegram was anu either to Preso. Agency or to M'Levie's distant friends. A day or two before hia death, which took place at the Q-reymouth Hospital six dajs after he had sustained the injury, a telegram was sent to his friend Walker, who lost no time in hurrying to Q-reymouth ; but before his arrival the spark of life remaining in his now deceased mate hud quitted it 3 mortal shell, and the two friends npuke to each other no more.
