BALCLUTHA.
Monday.
The cash-box extracted from the Postoffice here on Thursday night was found this morning by the police in a waterhole, close to the office. It contained upwards of twelve pounds in cash, and about fifty pounds in cheques! Fiftyfour pounds in cash are missing. It appears the cash-box* was' nerer kept locked, and not placed in a safe on Thursday night. With the exception of the large water-holes, Balclutha is now pretty clear of water. Inchclutha is still very much covered, although the river is not above the height of ordinary;£ood.
