* . — L-J An Auckland telegram to the Post of Saturday says: — A man named John Ross, a native of Columbia, United States, was brought up at the Police Court charged with being of unsound mind. He had been working for Mr Dargaville iv the bush, but left without any reason, came to Auckland, went to the office of Brown, Campbell & Co., and exhibited a quantity of notes, saying he suspected his bank was not secure, and he had drawn them out with the view of taking a ship for his own country. At the same time he commenced tearing up a £50 note. This excited the suspicion that he was not sane, and Detective Jeifery, when sent for took him into custody On searching him one pocket was found to contain gold to the value of £202 iOs. In another pocket were notes amounting to £70 making £272 10s. He had also a watch and Albert chain estimated at £30. He has been a considerable traveller having engaged in fishing expeditions and been a farmer. He had also made a good deal of money as a digger and in mining speculations. Ross had been drinking heavily for some time past, and was suffering from delirium tremens. His Worship remanded him until the 26th inst, wheu he may be sufficiently restored to give an account of himself, and have possession of his money.
