Yesterday afternoon a blacksmith named 1 Egan, at Matawhero, had his leg broken just ’ above the ankle, through indulging in a scuffle with a man named Tobins. From , what we can learn a Maori endeavored to prevent the rpiarrel, and Egan smacked him. The Maori then shoved Egan, who fell, and , in the fall had his leg bro Ken. He is now an inmate of the Hospital. Just as we are going to press we leasn that Captain Tucker's petition, as entrusted to Mr P. E. Richardson, has been “ burst up ” by Mr E. P. Joyce signing it with the little remark that he “ disapproved of the petition 1 and its object” written as an accompaniment. 1 Mr Joyce has a few remarks to make on the ' subject, but we regret that we have not space for him in this issue.
