Dr. Nives' has commenced practice at the Teviot, and accepted the position of. medical; attendant to the Oddfellows' Lodge at Rexburgh. Joseph William Jones was' J yesterday brought up before Mr. Stratford, on a charge of selling a horse said to be the pioperty of Mr. Thomas Logan, of Cromwell. The examination was continued' all day, and ultimately, at about half-past four, ori request of the Sub-Inspector, who nas conducting the case for the prosecution, it was remanded till Monday morning, at 11 a.m., to enable other witnesses to be brougl t. The <' DußStanvTimes' of yester-dav records the death of Mr Rodi-rick; titroniiel) ■ (brother of D stronaeh, linj., manager of tl.fi Ida Yalley Station). Llie full pirticuiars have not.reflched us; but from what, we are able t<> gather it appears that on Friday, the 6th instant, the deceased and his brother William were at. tlie Teviot, and proceeded to leturn home to Swil z«'r"s; that 011 reaching the saddle of the range the brothers parted, each tilting separ.ite tracks Willijm arrived home safe y, but the deceased di 1 not. The following morning search parties were formed, and i strict search w:ls made ; but.without effect, until 'the -following Wednesday,when lieceased was fomni v -on Mount'Wliitecombe, his horse Jyii g to him, both dead. The remains were conveyed to Switzer's, where they were interred. The ' Tuapeka Times' give's a more probable version:—'J he younn man Stronaeh, referred to by us in our last issue us being missing from Hyde Home Station, was found d>':id in a cave in the neighborhood of the Whit combe on Thursdny last. He had evidently 'lost his way and got benighted, and taken shelter in the cave referred to. TYere was plenty of timber olosis nr. hand, and lie ; had lit a tire, which was not quite extinguishedwhen lie was discovered, ilis horse and dogs were found alive near to him.

' The sale of dppasturing runs in the Wakatijj, which has been anxiously looted forward;: to thi'oughout the disl rict, took place on MOll- - last. .. .So large avas the - attendance : of actual buyers and spectators that the place of;; bale lind to be removed from the mart of . the aucticjneei's, M'Ardt-ll and Go., to thecomuio-/ dious'Town ilall, was well filled. Of • course keen • competition was: expected, but, nothing like the spiriied bidding lor every- lot ■.■which l avhs exhibited durmg the sale. > We com-' plunent the G-overninunt upon the business tactuisplajed in the whole transaction.
