AUCKLAND.
This day. The Alleged Murder at the
Thames.
A correspondent who was formerly a mate of E.ed Bill's at the Thames in the Albion claim, on the day previous to his death, says Bill was a deserter from the 70th Eegiment, and his real name was William Mather. He was drowned in one of the forsaken prospectors' shafts on the Karaka, at least a hundred feet deep. He says Mather had no money, and thinks the statement of Lowe confounds Eed Bill /with a man named Brown, one of the first men drowned on the Thames. ;
