BOWES, of Purimu, Taradale, to Annie Martins, eldest daughter of John O'DOWD, Esq., of Coogee, Sydney. The proprietor of the Eastern Coach Factory in Dalton-street is Mr J.P. THOMSON. At the R.M.Court on Saturday, before Mr TURNBULL, R.M., the notorious Thomas LONG was fined £1 and costs for drunkenness. The alternative was seven days' hard labor, and defendant elected to go to gaol. Danevirke - A man named CASTLES was acciddentally chopped on the back of the right forearm yesterday through his mate's axe slipping, the tendon of the arm being nearly severed. It is expected that with proper care his arm will not be disabled. The case of Patrick FRAWLEY has been pretty freely commented upon here. So far the evidence taken is in his favor, and it is likely that when the defence is heard FRAWLEY will be found more sinned against than sinning. Some disclosures are expected. Waipawa - Fifty acres of what is known as BOWDIN's estate were yesterday sold by Mr E. LYNDON to Mr A. M'MASTERS, at £13 per acre.
