William ADAMS, who was brought before the Court last week on a charge of lunacy, his hallucination being that he received guidance and general communications from a spirit or some spirits, was again brought up on remand yesterday morning. After hearing a statement as to defendant's condition the R.M. discharged him. Hastings - We regret to record a sad accident which happened to a poor fellow named George PORTAS, who was attending to a reaping machine. It seems that he was standing in front of the cutters, when the horses went on, and cut the tendons of one of his ankles in a terrible manner. He was brought into Hastings and sent off to the hospital by the afternoon train.
