NELSON.
Accident by Drowning. — We regret to have to announce the loss of another life by drowning. Yesterday a young man named Lynes, while bathing somewhere in the Waiiti, got drowned.' We are not in possession of the particulars. Discovery of the Body of one of the Wairau Sufferers. — By a whale-boat from Cloudy Bay we learn that the skeleton of a man was lately found in the bush, near the scene' of the lamentable massacre in the Wairau, by a party of persons who were pig huntting. Around the body was a belt on which they were able to decipher the word"Maline." This v was the name of the chief-constable, who fell on that occasion, and, as his body was not found at time, there is doubt but the skeleton was his. — Nelson Examiner.
