TE WANANGA.
KOTAHI PUTANGA I TE WIKI.
HATAREI, 16 OKETOPA, 1875.
I TE WA i korerotia ai te Pira mo nga Mema mo Te
Paremata. I korerotia ano hoki etahi kupu mu nga
Mema Maori mo Te Paremata. Na tetahi o nga
Rangatira o Te Kawanatanga taua Pira i tuku ki te
Paramata. He Komihana aia no Te Katimauhe.
A koia nei te taui o nga upoko o taua Pira. " Ko nga
taane katoa, kua tae ona tau ki te rua te kau ma tahi,
a mehemea ia, ki ano i he noa i nga Kooti te whakawa,
a mehemea he tangata no te Iwi o Ingarangi me ona
Taro, a mehemea kua noho i tenei whenua i Nui Ti-
reni, i nga marama katoa o te tan kotahi, a kotahi
ano takiwa i noho ai, i ana ra, a mehemea kua tuhi-
tuhi i tona ingoa ki te pukapuka Pooti kia tika ki to
te Turu e tohutohu ai, penei e tika ano kia Pooti aia
mo nga Mema mo tana Takiwa."
Kua korero ano matou i enei korero mo taua Pooti
mo nga. Mema Maori, i roto i te Wananga i taia i te
marama o Akuhata. E kore ano taua Pira e whakaa-
etia hei Ture. Otiia ko nga korero a e tahi o nga
Mema o Te Paremata i korero ai, me whakaatu e
matou ki te Iwi Maori kia kite ai ratou i nga whaka-
aro o aua Mema. I penei nga kupu a Te Hepata.
"He tika ano pea ia, i nga ra i mohiotia ai me tuku mai
he Mema Maori ki te Paremata nei, ara me mahi te
tikanga motuhake mo te Maori e tae mai ai he Mema
ma, ratou ki Te Paremata. A e koa ana matou te
Pakeha, i to mea o noho nei hoki nga Mema Maori i
tenei Paremata. Otiia e mea ana ahau. He iwi kua
mohio te Maori, a kua nui he taonga ia ratou, koia
ahau i mea ai, kua tae mai nga ra e mutu ai to mahi
Ture. motuhake mo te Maori anake. E mea ana ahau
me mahi te Maori i o ratou ingoa ki nga pukapuka
Pooti, kia pera ai ano ratou me te mano o te Pakeha
o Te Kuini, a ma ratou te rapurapu, e iti ai ranei, e
nui ui ranei he Mema Maori ki Te Paremata. E mea
una ahau e kore pea nga Maori o etahi takiwa e pai
kia tukua mai e ratou Ue Mema Maori ki te Pareina tu
nei. Ranei pea, e mea aua Maori, me Pooti e ratou he
Pakeha hei mahi i a ratou whakaaro ki te Paremata
nei, Otiia e mea ana ahau ki te mea ka mutu te
mahi Ture motuhake mo te Maori anake, ma tenei e
noho huihui ai te whakaaro a Te Maori ki te Pakeha,
u e whakakotahi ai ratou ia ratou hei tino Pakeha,
koia nui nga whakaaro Taiaroa mo taua Pira, mo
nga Mema mo te Paremata. " Tenei aku kupu mo te
Pira a Te Komihana o Te Katimauhe. E he ana i
au te kupu e mea nei, kia kotahi ano tau e noho ai te
tangata i tenei whenua, kua Pooti rawa aia mo te
Mema Paremata. He aha te pai kia Pooti noa te
tangata, i te mea heoi ano te take e Pooti ai. ko tana
nohoanga i roto i te whare anake, i nga. marama te
kau ma rua. Waiho te Ture, kia man ana i una tika-
nga e mau nei, waiho ma te nui o te taonga a te
tangata, aia o mea kia Pooti aia, ki te mea me Pooti
nga tangata noho tau kotahi i konei, heoi ra me Pooti
katoa te Iwi Maori. E rua take e kiia ai me Pooti
te Maori. He nui no ana whenua tetahi. A he nui
ano hoki ana taonga ka run, koia ahau i mea ai koia ra
nga take e Pooti ai te Iwi Maori. I whakahe ahau
ki to upoko tua 8 o te Pira 5 tera tau, whai hoki e
waakahe ana ano ahau ki taua upoko ra ano i roto i
tenei Pira, Tena koa whakarongo mai koutou e nga
Mema o Te Paremata kia korerotia atu e ahau te 19 o
nga upoko o te Ture i te wahi te 11 i kiia ai tatou hei
i mahi i enei mahi i te Paremata mo tatou ano. Koia nei
nga kupu o taua Ture. " Kaua e kiia he tikanga ki nga
Maori, e kore ai hoki e tika kia kiia e te Ture hei tika-
nga ano e mahia ai ano, e te Pakeha." E mea ana

WHEN the qualification of Electors Bill was under
discussion, the question of Maori representation
cropped up at some length. It will be remembered
that the Bill was brought in by the Hon. the Com-
missioner of Customs, the member for Dunedin City,
i and contained the clause which we again recite :—
"every person of the full age of twenty one years not
subject to any incapacity, if he shall be a natural-born
or naturalised subject of Her Majesty, and if he has
resided in New Zealand for twelve calendar mouths
next before the last registration of electors, and in one
and the same electoral district during the said period
of twelve calendar months, shall, if duly registered,
be entitled to vote at the election of a member or
members for such electoral district." This subject
was reviewed at some length in these columns in an
August issue. The Bill of course will not become
law, but its discussion affords an opportunity to show
our readers some of the thoughts of the representatives
of the people on this most interesting question. Mr.
J. Shephard when speaking of this matter said,
"There was a time, probably, when it was desirable
to have a special representation for the Native race :
and we aro glad. I am sure, to see members of that
race sitting here among us, and taking part in our
I Councils. T cannot but think, however, that the
members of that race are now sufficiently intelligent,
i and have sufficient property to enable us to do away
with the special representation. I think they should
register themselves like other subjects of Her Majesty
in this country, and should take their chance whether
less or move of that race being sent to this House.
No doubt in many of the onstituences, a large pre-
ponderance of the Native race would be found who
might return a member from among themselves, or
elect oue from the Europeans as they thought fit.
But however that might be, I cannot help thinking
that the continuance of this special representation

Te Wananga.
would remove one of the greatest lines of separation
and almost the last between them and their European
fellow subjects." Taiaroa's views on one clause of the
Bill we quote at length.
"I have something to say on the Bill brought
forward by the Commissioner of Customs. I object
to this principle about people being only resident in
a place for one year. What is the good of allowing people
to vote having no qualification beyond simply living in
New Zealand in a house for twelve months ? Let the law
he as it is at present ; let property qualification continue.
If this qualification were allowed to extend to people who
are only here for one year, let the Maoris have votes on
that ground as well as their own. The Maoris have here
two reasons why they should bo considered qualified—
property qualification as regards Iand, and also goods. I
objected to the 8th clause last year, and I object to it now,
as it appears in the present Bill. Will you allow me to
redd a clause on the Constitution Act ? Clause 19, sub-
section 11, is as follows:—" Inflicting any disabilities or
restrictions on persons of the Native races which persons
of European birth or descent would not also be subjected."
I think that, if persons coming to New Zealand, and only
being resident for twelve months, should bo allowed to
vote, then we (the Maoris), should be allowed to vote on
the same principle."
The result of the discussion on this matter may thus
be summarised. No change will be made in the re-
presentation of the Native people during this session
of Parliament, and probably not until 1877, when the
Maori Representation Act lapses. When the later
debates on this matter come to hand, the subject will
be more fully discussed in our columns.
He mea atu tenei ki nga tangata e korero aua i te nupepa
nei i TE WANANGA. Ko te Kooti Whakawa Whenua Maori,
ka ta i te Wairoa a te 28 o nga ra o Oketopa, hei whakawa
i nga whenua e mau na nga korero kua taia hei apiti mo TE
WANANGA o tenei putanga o TE WANANGA.
We again remind our readers of the sitting of the Native
Lands Court at Wairoa, to be held ou the 28th instant, as will
be seen by advertisement in this issue of our paper
Ko nga Whakawa i kiia kia Whakawakia nga whenua i
pa ai a Karaitiana Takamoana, raua ko Henare Tomoana,
e Te Kooti Whakawa Whenua Maori i tu i Nepia i He-
petema i Oketopa, o tenei tau. Ko aua Whakawa i kiia
taihoa ano o Whakawa hei tetahi tunga o taua Kooti i
konei.
The cases in which Karaitiana Takamoana and Henare To
moana were concerned in the Native Lands Court, were ad-
journed until the next sitting.
Kua tae te Pira whakakahore i nga Porowini ki te
Runanga Ariki, a kua inaina e ratou, i te inane tata nei.
He nui ano ia nga kupu o taua Pira kua whakaahuaketia e
ratou. A tera ano pea e mahia nuitia ano e ratou, kia oti
rawa ake ta ratou mahi i taua Pira, kua tino rere ke te kano
o te korero o taua Pira. A kia kiia rawatia ake taua Pira
hei Ture, kua kahore te nuinga o nga kupu tawhito o taua
Pira i mahia ai e Te Kawanatanga.
The Abolition of Provinces Bill passed the Legislative
Council in Committee on Monday last. It has undergone
some considerable modification since its first introduction,
and will probably assume a still more modified form before
coming into operation.

"Tauranga.'Oketopa 11, kua tu te hui nui a nga Ranga-
tira Maori o Ngaiterangi i te ra nei. He mea na aua Maori
kia tukua kia keria e te Pakeha nga whenua Koura i
Tauranga. A tino whakaae ana taua hui kia tukua tana
whenua Koura kia keria e to tangata te Pakeha e te
Maori. A tukua ana te pukapuka a taua Hui ki to Hupe-
retene kia Ta Hori Kerei kia mahia nga koura o taua
whenua.
The Tauranga correspondent of the " Hawke's Bay
Herald" sends the following message :—" Tauranga, 11th
October.—An important meeting was held this morning
by the principal chiefs of the Ngaiterangi tribe, to consider
the subject of opening the Tauranga auriferous districts
to prospecting parties, when a unanimous assent was
given, and a written application forwarded to the Super
intendent to that effect."
No te 5, o te marama nei i mutu ai te whakawa o te
Kooti whakawa whenua Maori i Waipaoa. I whakawakia
te whenua a Te Tarata i te takiwa ki Maraekakaho, a e
500 eka o taua whenua. A mea ana te Kooti kia Reihana
Te Ikatahi ma taua waahi, ratou ko Te Hapuku. A ko te
whenua ko Te Wi, i te takiwa ki Patea, i kiia taihoa tera
e whakawa kia tae mai te mapi ki Te Kooti. A kiia ana
taihoa ano te Kooti e mahi whakawa i Nepia a te 11, o
Oketopa l875. A ko a te mane te 11 o Oketopa tu ai ano
he whakawa i Nepia.
The sittings of the Native Land Court at Waipawa, con-
cluded on Tuesday, the 5th instant. The investigation of
title to the Tarata block, situated near Maraekakaho, con-
taining about 500 acres, was gone into and completed, the
Court awarding the memorial of ownership in favor of
Reihana Te Ikatahi and party, including Te Hapuku. In
the case of Te Wi block, situated in the Patea district,
pending production of the map, it was adjourned till the
11th instant, when it was heard at Napier. The Court sat
at Napier on Monday, the 11th instant.
Nei nga korero e mohio ai te Maori, ki a te Pakeha titiro
mo tenei mea mo te Hoiho. E hara ia i te whakaaro na
nga tangata noa o te Iwi. Engari na nga tino tangata
nunui, me te hunga whai moni o Ingarangi. He Hoiho
Reihi te mea nana i puta ai te utu nui e kiia nei e matou.
Na Te Tiuka o Wehiminita i hoko te Hoiho Reihi a Te
Tokata, a ko te utu i utu ai taua Tiuka, kotahi te kau ma
tahi mano e toru rau Pauna (£11,300) mo taua Hoiho.
As an illustration of the high prices given by our
wealthy aristocracy in Great Britain for fancy articles,
the purchase of the racehorse Doncaster for the sum of
£11,300 by the Duke of Westminster will suffice.
Koia nei te korero a Ta Hori Kerei i mea ai hei take
korero ma Te Paremata. He mea naana kia rapua nga
tikanga e mau nei i enei kupu aana. " Ko nga whenua e
hokona ana, a e Riihitia ana e nga Apiha, ara, o nga.
Pakeha e utua ana e te Kawanatanga kia hoko whenua
ratou mo te Kawanatanga, ki te mea ka hoko ranei ka
Riihi ranei aua Pakeha i te whenua a nga Maori mo etahi
Pakeha ke atu, penei, ko aua whenua me riro i te Kawa-
natanga. Otiia me utu nga moni e to Kawanatanga i utu
ai aua Pakeha mo aua whenua." Ko totahi o ana kupu,
he tango i nga whenua kua riro i te Pakeha Maori, kia
riro hei whenua ma te Kawanatanga.
Sir George Grey has placed on the Order Paper the fol-
lowing motion :—"That the purchase or leasing of native
lands for, or by private individuals, through the instru-
mentality of paid officers of the Government, or by such
officers on their own account, is contrary to the public
interest, and that it is desirable that the subject should be
considered next session, with a view to enacting that all
such lands so purchased or leased since the date of the
passing of the Immigration and Public Works Act, 1870,
should be taken and deemed to be prut of the public estate,
the colony refunding to such purchasers all suras proved
to have been properly expended by them in the purchase
of such lands." Its object of course is to take over on
behalf of the Government, the lands acquired from the
Natives by private individuals.

i puta ano nga kupu tika a Taiaroa ki te Paremata mo taua
Pira, Katahi ra ano a Taiaroa ka korero ki te Paremata.
A he tino tika pu ano no aua kupu koia matou i whakapai*
ai ki ana kupu. I penei ana korero "Me tuku taua Pira kia
mahia i tenei Paremata a taihoa e tino mahia e te Paremata
meake nei tu a te tau a muri ake nei. He aha te pai kia
mahi rora tatou i enei ra mo te Pira nei, me mutu
to korero, waiho te Pira, taihoa e tino korero nga
take o taua Pira ana tu te Paremata hou. E kore hoki
nga Porowini e mahi, a kia tu te Paremata hou, ka whai
takiwa tatou ki te korero i nga tikanga katoa o taua
Pira." Ae, he tikanga kupu a Taiaroa. E hara hoki i te
Pira tino whakakahore i nga Porowi, e ngari e haere ake
ana ki taua mahi. A taihoa ano e tino mahi nga korero
kia oti pai a te tunga o te Paremata hou. Tukua taua
Pira kia waiho i enei ra, a hei aha i mahi hoha noa ai tatou
i enei ra, i te mea hoki e takoto ake ana nga ra e tino mahia
ai, koia nei hoki nga whakaaro a Taiaroa mo taua Pira.
E mea ana matou koia nei te tino korero tika o nga korero
katoa i turia ki te Paremata. A e tika pu ana nga kupu a
Taiaroa.
The Christchurch " Weekly Press" of the 2nd instant
in its leader on the Abolition Bill, makes the following
remarks :—" One does not often seek advice on political
questions from the Maori members ; but in this instance
the most sensible counsel offered to the House of Repre-
sentatives during the recent debates came from a Maori.
We refer to Mr. Taiaroa's speech in Committee—the only
time, we think, that he did speak—which was uncom-
monly to the purpose. "It is agreed," he said, " that this
Bill should be passed this year, but that its final passing
into law should be next year. What is the good of bothers
ing about the Bill any more ? It is agreed that it should
be passed, and let it be passed now. Let further discus-
sion of the matter be taken next year in the new Parlia-
ment. . . . The Provinces will not be able to do any-
thing in the meantime, and next year we shall be able to
go into the matter more fully." Exactly ! This Bill if
not meant to be an operative measure. It is not a real
Abolition Bill, but only a first step towards one—a sort of
rough hewn block which will be shaped out next session.
To be particular about the details of such a Bill is ridicu-
lous. Pass it, if you have agreed that it shall be passed,
and have done with it. To keep " bothering" over it is a
waste of time and trouble that might be turned to much
better account. This is Mr. Taiaroa's view of the matter.
and we must say that we entirely agree with him. We
call the above speech the best that was made in the
House, after the postponement of the Bill was conceded.
I te ra i korerotia ai te Pira whakakahore mo nga Porowini
e te Runanga Ariki. I korero ano te Tumuaki o taua Runa-
nga mo taua Pira. He kapu tana mo nga Motu nei, kia noho
Kawanatanga tetahi, tetahi, a, kia rua ano Porowini mo
tenei whenua. Ko Aotearoa teiahi, ko Te Waipounamu
tetahi, koia nei te kupu mai o te Waea o aua korero. " I te
mea e korerotia ana te Pira mo nga Porowini kia whakaka-
horetia, ka mea a Te Onarap Hone Ritihana, i korero ai a ia
i ana kupu utu mo te korero a Te Orarapa Te Rata Porena.
l korero a Te Ritihana i nga mahi Kawanatanga a Kawana
Kerei i mua. a i tino whakapai pu a ia ki aua mahi a Kawana
Kerei, whai hoki i mea ano a ia, he mahi tika ano te mahi a
Kawana Kerei i enei ra, e mahi nei a ia. A i mea ano a Te
Ritimona, waiho ma nga uri o nga tau i muri i a tatou e ko-
rera nga kupu, a, ko nga kupu a aua uri o tatou, e penei a
ratou kii, i timataria e Kawana Kerei te mahi tika, whai
hoki, e mau tonu taua ahua a tae noa ki te mutunga. E ki
ana, e pai ana te Iwi kia whakakahoretia nga Porowini, ki
ano a Te Ritimona i rongo noa i taua kupu a te Iwi. Kahore
ano hoki a ia i rongo noa i taua kupu a te Iwi mo nga Porowini
kia whakakahoretia, kia kiia e tetahi tangata kotahi ; no te
mea e kore te Iwi e mohio, e, he aha te mea hei tu i te tura-
nga o nga Porowini, mehemea e whakamutua ana te mahi e
mahi ai nga Porowini. Amua, ka mahia e ia etahi kupu hei
kupu apiti ki roto ki nga korero mo taua Pira whakakahore
mo nga Porowini, a ko aua kupu ana me penei. " Me mahi
etahi Porowini kia rua. ko aua Porowini me tu. A ko te
ingoa o aua Porowini, ko Murita tetahi, ko Urita tetahi, a
ko te moana i Raukawa te tau arai o aua Porowini." B ki
aua a ia, na te ahua wehewehe o nga Motu nei i kiia ai kia
rua Porowini, a hei Kawanatanga mo tetahi, hei Kawanata-
nga mo tetahi. E mea ana a ia, ki te mea ka tino korerotia
taua whakaaro nei ki te Iwi ; i nga ra e pooti ai te Iwi mo
nga Mema hou, mo te Paremata hou, penei e kotahi ana te
whakaaro o te Iwi. ko taua kupu aana ka whakaaetia e
ratou. A ki te mea ka whakamutua e ratou nga mahi Ka-
wanatanga Porowini te mahi, kua arohatia nei e te Iwi. A-
hakoa kua ahua hoha te Iwi ki aua mahi Parowini i roto i
enei ra ou ou nei. Tena ano te Iwi e mea kia noho Porowini
ano ratou, a ko aua Porowini kia rua, ko aua Motu nei, ko
I Aotearoa ko Te Waipounamu, hei Porowihi tetahi me tetahi,
a kia kotahi ano hoki Kawanatanga.
In the Legislative Council, when the Abolition Bill passed
through Committee, the Honorable the Speaker reviewed the
idea of insular separation. The following is the telegraphic
report of his utterances on this matter:—" In the Legislative
Council, in Committee on the Abolition Bill, the Hon. Mr.
John Richardson spoke in reply to Dr. Pollen. He gave a
history of the past administration of the colony, and spoke ia
high terms of the conduct of Sir George Grey while acting as
Governor and since. He was quite content to leave it to the
verdict of posterity, which he felt confident would be that as
Sir George Grey commenced so would he continue and end.
With regard to expressions of opinion favorable to the Abo-
lition Bill, of which so much had been said, he must affirm
that he had heard nothing of such unanimous approval of
abolition. He had heard no such utterance from a single, in-
dividual simply because the people could not see what was to
be substituted for the institutions which it was proposed to
abolish. He should, on a future occasion, move for the intro-
duction of a clause, or part of a clause to this effect:—' That
there shall be two provinces created which shall be called
the Provinces of Munster and Ulster, and which shall be
separated by Cook Straits.' Nature be thought had appointed
that such a system of Government should exist in this colony
by its insular description. He felt sure when that was fairly
put before the colony during the general election, which Was
shortly to come on, there would be but one response. If they
were to do away with the local form of government which
they had learned to love, though estranged from it for the
moment, the voice of the people would be unanimously in
favor of insular separation and a federal form of government."

teeth? But when, and not until then, when I have di-
vulged all my claim before the law, so that justice may
see all my right, then after that, I will have time to admire
your teeth ? Why do you not take (he block Otamakapua
before the Native Lands Court. It is, that you are afraid that
you may fall in Court. And hence you act in secret,
thinking it may be kept hidden, but it cannot be kept un-
known; and in regard to the post you say you put
up at Pikitara, it was burnt by Ngawaka. But a post was
put up by Ngatiapa and Whanganui Natives, which was.
when erected, called by Aperahama (/Tipae), after the
name of my child of Marererihe Rangi. This was put up
at Pikitara, and that place was a Pa iu which men lived
belonging to my ancestors, and called Pikitara. I called
the meeting to put Ngawaka down, as that land was mino.
Friend, to you will not go the greatest portion of the
money ; my strength has been acknowledged, and Sir
Donald M'Lean has consented that the laud shall bo passed
through the Native Lands Court, so that all the rights of
purchase or sale may be clear to the Government. Let it
it be known unto you, that Sir Donald M'Lean has not
made myself and people very small. Do not mistake those
four words in my first letter, in reference to Sir Donald
M'Lean. Those words did not mean anything in respect
to him, "but my object was to frustrate you in your con-
cealed act in regard to the £2,000, and also in regard to
your statement, that you saved myself and tribe on our way
\\ from Taupo. What ancestor of yours sent back Rangi-
whakaau to Motu Opuhi at Rotoaira,—so that she could
give birth to her child Tairapanga, in her own country,
and so keep alive her offspring and his descendants? Was it
Tuhotoariki; perhaps not, maybe she went there of her
own accord ? And then she came back to Rangitikei to
live, and exterminated the people of Otamakapua, so that
not one should remain of the whole people, and rats alone
lived there. My boundary is at the Kawatau river. Yes,
you are right in respect to Utiku Potaka, but I am doing
the work of a fatherless child. No, I am guarding the
rights of my people, whom you have slandered, and you
have wronged Aperahama Tipae and myself. We two
can, and will now act for ourselves with Sir Donald
M'Lean, and not let you meddle again, as you have done
wrong. I am not acting in any way by which wrong can
come on my people, but you are making slaves of your
tribe (the Ngatiteupokoriri), and its influence may even come
on to part of my children. Why do you mention Returoa
Te Ota, and Ngapapa. Do you think of them as chiefs?
No, your acts degrade them ? You are very full of con-
ceit, and it is to me you show your pride. But I can
afford to trample your pride under my feet. Yes, I am
the child of Hakeke. Am I your child ; am I your bastard
son ? Do you know my age, or the day on which I was
born, and where my parents baptised me with water, and
gave me the name of To Rarao-o-to-Rangi ? Waitapu is
land belonging to me. That is, that is the land of my
birth.

This is in answer to the letter of Aperahama Tipae and
Kawana Hunia Te Hakeke. Also an answer to the letter
of Renata Kawepo, winch were inserted in the WANANGA
newspaper of the 18th September, 1875, who slate in those
leeters I was a survey or employed by them to survey this
land. Hearken O all the world ? I am living within the
circle of the law, and I was born within the influence of the
law ; I was born on this block of land called Otama-
kapua ; and it is on this I claim protection from my point
of the law. Those lands are mine. And the words of
those people in their letters arc wrong. This land is mine,
even from my ancestors, and I am still living on it.

To THE EDITOR OF THE WANANGA.
SIR,—Not the least interesting: of the problems that have
attracted investigation, is that which relates to the rise and
fall of nations, and the decadence and disappearance of races.
Nor have the researches of scientific men stopped at the en-
deavor to discover the causes which have led to the extinction
of so many families of the human race whose places are now
occupied by others. All creation appears to be constantly
undergoing changes, in some cases, so slowly that it requires
the lapse of generations before the mutation is complete.
Evidences iu abundance, are to be found scattered over the
face of the whole earth, that incontestably prove how greatly,
and how completely has the world altered since it left its
Creator's bands. In the heart of the almost untrodden forests
of America are to be found the remains of ruined cities, the
evidences of the existence of an ancient and highly civilised
race of human beings. No record is left of these people but
moss-grown stones : they have gone, and their place knows
them no more. We should have had no knowledge that they
had ever lived, and had grown into large, wealthy, and in-
dustrious communities, did not the vast remains of their hand-
some habitations tell the story of their death. They have
gone, and where they once filled the air with the busy hum
of toil, now lurks the wild beast hiding from the painted and
savage Indian. The bones of the Moa tell no truer tale of the
extinction of a former creation, than doth carved, stones in
the heart of the American forests. Passing onwards, and
coming clown to the times of which records are to be found in
history we still find that race supplants race ; and peoples
migrate, over-run, new countries, flourish for ages, and have
themselves ia their turn to give place to others. As it is with
the human, family, so it is with the " fauna" and the " flora."
The survival of the fittest is the law of nature. The great
question then that each nation and people has to solve is, how
can we so fit ourselves to the circumstances of our condition
as to survive 1 To survive at all, it is necessary to cope suc-
cessfully with present difficulties, and to ever progress onwards
so as to be prepared to meet future dangers. To stand still is
to die. Wheti two races of unequal strength and civilisation
are thrown together, however friendly and well disposed
towards, each other they may be, the experience of ages teaches
that the weakest gradually declines and finally disappears.
Had New Zealand never been trodden by the foot of man, the
Moa would still have been the lord of the land. The stately
bird would never have had to drown itself ia the water to
escape a more cruel death by fire. Admirably adapted to
flourish in a state of unmolested nature, it could not survive
when mau entered his domain. The present race of Maoris
supplanted a less vigorous people, and now the European con-
tends for the mastery. The lessons that both Natives and
colonists have learned since they have been thrown together.
have plainly taught them that which it is impossible to hide.
The two races cannot preserve their distinctive features, and
continue for long to subsist side by side.. Either the European
must descend to the level of the Maori, or the Maori rise to
the standard of the European. It is better for each one of us
to recognise this truth, and to profit by it, than to try and put
it on one side. However unpalatable the reflection may be,
it is nevertheless true, that unless the Maori strives—and
strives successfully—to take his place side by side with the
European, his race is doomed to extinction. It may take
many generations before this unhappy destiny ia fulfilled,
while, on the other hand, it may take very much less time for
tae Natives to prove their mental and physical ability to rise
superior to the fate that has befallen so many other people.

No te 9 o Hepetema i tu ai te Hui i Pau i te mou-

ratou l<o ana rangatira Maori, kia Te Kawana. Ko nga
mahi o taua Hui i mahia ki o ratau, tikanga Maori, i
o nga Iwi Maori o taua whenua, Ano ka tae a Te
Kawana, ki taua hui, a noho ana aia i te nohonga, i
kiia ai mona. Ka kiia kia mahia te wai e inu ai nga
Ariki i taua Hui, i te Kawana. Te take i inu ai
nga Rangatira o taua hui i taua wai Kaawa,
ratou i nga korero e whakaae ai ratou i taua Hui.
Ka oti taua wai ta mahi na te he ki pono na
Kingi na Takupau, i kawe, i hoatu kia inu Te Kawana,
Ano ka inu iti nei a Te Kawana, ka Umeretia e te Iwi,
ara, he mea whakataamaa e ratou, a papaki ai ano hoki
nga ringaringa o te iwi nui, e noho matakitaki ra i
tana mahi. Ka mutu te inu a Te Kawana. Ka inu te
Kingi a Takupau, me nga tino Ariki a taua Kingi, a
Maahu a Tui-Kakau, me etahi atu o nga rangatira
Ariki. He Inu whakanui i a Te Kawana. Ka mutu
tera, ka korero a Te Kawana ki Te Kingi me aua tini
Ariki. Ko Te Kare Pakeha te kai whakamaori, ka
mutu to korero a Te Kawana. Ka haere te Kingi a
Takupau ki te taha o Te Kawana, a korero pono ana
aia hei tangata whakamana aia i nga Ture o Kuini
Wikitoria o Ingarangi. Ano ka haere aua Ariki ki te
kii kupu ma ratou e whakamana ai i nga Ture o Te Kuini
korero aua a Te Kawana i ana kupu ako ia ratou, ai
Ariki me nga kupu ako a Te Kawana moona, ai a
Ariki me kupu ako a Te Kawena moona. Ka mutu
tera na Te .Kawana ano i whaka Kakahu aua tini
Ariki ki nga kakahu e mana, aia aia Ariki, mo a ratou
turanga o tu ai i roto i nga mahi nui mo te Iwi. Ka
mutu tera. Ka tahi a Te Kawana ka tahuri ki nga
Rangatira o te Iwi e noho noa iho ra, a hoaatu ana e
Te Kawana nga Kakhu ma taua tini, hei koha aroha
maana ki te tini o te Iwi. I whakapai pu taua tini
ki te oha a Te Kawana kia ratou. A haere ana a Te
Kawana, a marara ana te Iwi.
Tenei nga Ture i kiia e Te Kawana mo Whiti
"Kua mea a Te Kawana, a e whakaae ana ano hoki
taua runanga, koia enei Ture i kiia ai hei Ture, kia
kaua ai e hokona nga Whenua o enei motu o Whitii,
o tenei Koroni. A kua kiia e Te Kawana, kua wha-
kaaetia ano hoki e taua Runanga kia kiia enei Ture
hei Ture. I ko tenei Ture, me whakahua hei Ture mo
nga mahi katoa e kore ai e tika kia tuku whenua te
tangata a ko te Ture nei no te tau 1875. ÎI. ko nga
puka puka hoko whenua, me nga Riihi, me nga mahi
katoa e pa ana ki te hoko whenua, me nga mea katoa
o te mana o te whenua, ki te mea ia he hoko ta teta-
hi Maori ki te Pakeha ka kiia nei e Tenei Ture he
tino mahi taua naahi e hengia ana e Tenei Ture, a e
kore rawa taua tu mahi e kiia hei tika, e kore taua
mahi e mana. A e kore rawa rawa e tika kia kawea
kia whakawakia te tangata Maori hoko whenua, ki te
Pakeha naana i hoko taua whenua; i te mea e kore
taua whenua e riro i te Pakeha. ( He tika ano ia nei
kia kiia enei kupu e matou. He mohio rongo korero
pea na Te Kawana o Whitii, ki te mahi maminga nu-
karau, me te mahi tahae a nga Pakeha, ki nga Maori
o etahi whenua, i riro huhua kore nei a ratou whenua
a koia nei pea te take i kiia ai aua Ture nei mo Whitii).

ex-King Cakobau being present. According to native
custom—and we may here observe that native customs
were strictly followed throughout the whole of the
proceedings—the chiefs were seated upon the ground.
When the Governor had taken his scat the order was
given to prepare the yagona or kava. for the purpose
of solemnly pledging his Excellency the Governor of
the country in ancient and binding form. The first i
bowl was handed by Cakobau to the Governor, who
upon tasting it was saluted with loud and prolonged
" tamas " from all present. Cakobau, Maafu, Tui
Cakau, and other chiefs in proper succession, then
drank to " gunuva'd," the Governor. After this
ceremony His Excellency, through Mr. Carew, ad-
dressed the chiefs for about ten minutes, and at its
conclusion they individually stepped forward and took
the oath of allegiance to the Queen, and were by the
Governor—who spoke a few solemn words of friend-
ship and advice to each—invested with the official
staff or symbol of rank. The strictly official part of
the meeting having terminated, His "Excellency now
made the assembled chiefs a large present of cloth and
other articles, which were received with many marks
of appreciation and respect. The Governor then
retired from the rara with his suite. The guards
presented arms, and the crowd of natives broke up and
dispersed.
ORDINANCES.
His Excellency the Governor with the advice of the
Legislative Council, has been pleased to enact the
following ordinances :—To prohibit the alienation of
land by natives in the colony of Fiji. Be it enacted
by His Excellency, with the advice and consent of the

THE GREAT EARTHQUAKE IN SOUTH AMERICA.
| AN extra edition of the Barranquilla (New Grenada)
Shipping List of May 29th, publishes the following-
account of the occurrence and effects of the terrible
earthquake in the Andes :—
The steamer Isabel, which arrived yesterday from the
interior, neared our city with her flag at half-mast,
indicating that she was the bearer of unwelcome news.
I The information which has reached us on the subject is
contained in a letter dated in Salazar, seven leagues from
Cucuta, the 19th of the present month, from which we
extract and translate the following: :—At ten minutes past
eleven o'clock a.m. yesterday (18th,) a severe earthquake
| visited this city and region. A large part of the churches
fell, several houses were destroyed and some people killed.
The city of Cucuta is entirely destroyed ; only a few
families were saved. The Botica Alemana (Greman drug
store) was set on fire by a ball of fire which was thrown
out of the volcano, which is constantly belching out lava.
This volcano has opened itself iu front of Santiago, in a
ridge called EI Aito de la Giracha. San Cayetano was
destroyed. The Greater part of Santiago has been des-
troyed. In Grama lote there was great destruction.
Arboleda, Cucutilla, and San CrIstobai, are nearly des-
troyed. The four last named places are almost obliterated.
The population of these towns is estimated by a person
well acuqainted in that region more or less as follows :—•
San Cayetana 4000 persons ; Santiago, 2000 persons ;
Gramalote, 3000 : Arboleda, 5000 persons ; Cucutilla,
5OOO persons ; San Cristebal, 16,000 persons. The section
of country above referred to embraces the regions around
about whero Colombia and Venezuela join, the Colombia.
portion embracing the State of Santander. It is in some
respects the most productive part of this Republic, and
the coffee of this section is famous all the world over.
San Jose de Cucuta, the city of the most importance of
any iu that section, was situated on the boundary of the
Republic. It was a port of entry, if an inland town can
be called a" port," and here was the established Custom-
house. The population of the city at the time of the
disaster is estimated at about 18,000. It had a large
commercial business, and vvas the great depot for coffee
and cocoa, for shipment either through the Venezuelan
ports or down the Magdalena to this city.

Maori, ko te whawhai me kore rawa a enei tau a muri ake
nei. A ko nga Maori e hoko whenua ana, ma ratou atu
tena e mahi. E mea ana a Te Whiti, e kaha ana aia ki
te whakaora i nga tupapaku Pakeha kua mate, ara o nga
Pakeha tawhito o te whenua nei. A kia mahia taua ma-
hi e Te Whiti, ko reira te kitea ai te mahi e miharo ai te

The " Taranaki Budget" is responsible for the follow-
ing :—" For feeding purposes at the late Parihaka meeting,
a visitor who took a lively interest in the " grubbing"
department, says that 10 bullocks, 127 pigs, 12,700 kits of
potatoes, besides a large quantity of flour and sugar and
so on. Grog was retailed by Natives at from 10s. to 15s.
per bottle. Tito Kowaru is reported to hare made Te
Whiti a present of blankets. To a query put by a white
man to a Native who was on his way back from Parihaka,
as to what was the result of the meeting, it was replied
that there was to be no more fighting. Natives who sell
land will have to do the best they can with the buyers.
Te Whiti said he was able, and intended to bring to life
all the old white settlers who had died, and there would
be a great to do, as God himself would appear and set
all things right."
