Details: Death of two Aboriginals.-On Saturday afternoon Tommy, a well-known aboriginal of the Maitland tribe, was skylarking and joking with several persons in High-street, when he unfortunately ran backwards against a dray horse and was knocked down, and before the driver could stop the dray, the wheel had passed over Tommys right leg, inflicting very great injury on his knee, and tearing the flesh off the lower part of the leg. He was immediately picked up, and the serious injuries being observed, was taken to the hospital, where Dr. Street soon after saw him. Tommy was then suffering in-tensely, but being at the same time labouring under the effects of drink, any operation was necessarily postponed till reaction took place, and indeed it was evident that there was scarcely any probability of saving his life. Tommy continued to sink in spite of every endeavour, re-action only partially taking place on Sunday evening, and on Monday morning he died. An inquest was held on his body the same afternoon before J. S. Parker, Esq., coroner, and a verdict of accidental death was returned. It is remarkable that on Sunday morning Sally, the gin of Tommy, was found lying dead m the stockyard opposite the Rose Inn ; she was found lying wrapped up in a blanket, the first person who observed her being Nanny, a gin of the same tribe ; Nannys wailings soon brought other blacks and several whites to the spot, and it was found that Sallys head was completely beaten in, as if by several heavy blows with some blunt instrument. On Monday an inquest was held on her body, when it appeared evident that her death was inflicted by a black, but no proof could be found of how or when it took place. The jury returned a verdict of death from violence, but that there was nothing to show who inflicted it. It is supposed by the Maitland blacks that Sally was killed by some of the up-country blacks who are down with drays. On Monday afternoon poor Tom-my and his gin were both buried.
