Gasoline. Auckland. —The Lunatic Asylum has been lighted by gasoline process. Stabbing. Dunedin.—A settler named Smith, of Tuapeka West, has been committed for trial on a charge of stabbing. He was proceeding home with a fellow settler from a meeting, when they quarrelled, and during a struggle Smith stabbed the other with a pocket-knife in the neck and thigh. Wreck Inquiry. Tiraarn.—The magisterial enquiry into the wreck of the City of Cashmere was concluded to-day. The Court found the vessel was lost through the parting of cable and shackle-bolt coming out. The nautical assessors thought a certain amount of negligence had been shown by the second officer in not discovering that the ship was adrift sooner than he did. All the certificates were returned.
