ARTHUR CLAMPETT. Wellington, July 15.
Arthur Clampett was a passenger by the Ruapehu, which arrived last night. He goes on to Christohurch. Clampett writes the following letter to the editor of the Evening Press :— " Sir,— My sole intention is to make a public apology in the near future.. For this reason I have crossed the ocean, and hope by my life and ability to prove to the community of New Zealand an advantage in my own profession. I shall return the amount of my pa«sage to the gentlemen who have been so anxious for my return, with many thanks. I regretted leaving the colony, and I trust that the future will tell better things. God forbid that I should ever experience a repetition of the past. — Yours respectfully, Abthub G. Clampett alias G. T. SDLT.IVAN." Chbistchukch, Jnly 15. It is stated that a gentleman of this city is prepared with evidence which he considers sufficient to justify proceedings being taken against Clampett for false pretences, and intends to institute proceedings immediately upon Clampett's arrival here.
Frederick Brown, on a charge of garotting a Chinaman at Auckland, has been committed for trial.
