pea e pai te rangi ina tae ki taua wa; ina hoki kai
e kore e pai i tenei wa, e ai ki ta ratou. Kua kore
e puta te karanga ki nga tangata kia haere ki taua
hui; kaore hoki e mohiotia ana te tangata mana e
karanga—ko wai ranei, ko wai ranei. Ko Tawhiao
raue ko te Whiti, ara nga tumuaki mo taua hui, kai
te kore e hohoro ki te whakaoti i nga tikanga. Ko
nga manuhiri anake pea ka tae ki reira, ara a Ta
Hori Kerei raua ko te Hihana, kowai ka hua e tae
nga tangata whenua ki reira. Aue! me pewhea ra ?
E maharatia ana e puku riri ana a Tawhiao mo te
whakanuinga i a Rewi, mo te whakaitinga hoki i a
ia. Akuanei ka pewhea ra tona whakaaro ina rongo
ia ki te moenga tahitanga o te Hihana raua ko Rewi
i Waitara, i Taranaki ano hoki; te kainga tahitanga
hoki a Rewi raua ko te Mea (i Taranaki) i te ti ma
raua, a, muri iho haere ana a Rewi ki te whare
purei; noho tahi ana ratou ka nga rangatira Pakeha,
korero atu ana, korero mai ana. Me he mea i hae
te Kingi i mua ai, katahi rapea ia ka tino riri rawa
—katahi ia ka ngakau kore rawa ki tena hanga, ki
te hui whakangahau, ki nga mahi whakamarie hoki.
Tena kua raruraru etahi o nga tikanga mo taua hui
o Maehe i kiia ra ma reira e oti ai nga tikanga
katoa, e tau ai hoki te pai ki te motu katoa—kua
mohio ano hoki te Hihana inaianei.
Tena hoki a Hiroki raua ko tona kai-whakaora, a
te Whiti, me pewhea he tikanga mo tena taha ? I
puta te patai ki a Kanara Witimoa i roto i te Kauni-
nera ki te take i kore ai e hopukia taua tangata e te
Kawanatanga kia whakawakia; ki mai ana taua
Witimoa, ' ka mau noa atu taua tangata te hopu e
nga pirihi i te ra e hiahia ai te Kawanatanga kia mau
ia. Tena, he aha i kore ai ia e hopukia ? E ki ana
te Hihana he mana nui tona i runga i nga tikanga
Maori. Ina ra, ko te tohu tenei o tona mana. I
tata ia ki Parihaka, te pa o te Whiti, i tona haereta-
nga mai; e kiia ana hoki kei reira a Hiroki. He
aha i kore ai e whakaputa i tona mana i reira ai, a
ka hopu i taua tangata ? Kaore ano matou i rongo i te
tono ia kia tukua mai taua tangata; ko te tono kau
noa iho nei, kaore rawa. E ki ana nga tangata
mohio ki nga korero a nga Maori o Parihaka e kore
rawa e tukua mai ki runga ki te ' mana tangata ' o te
Kawanatanga. Kua he katoa taua mahi. E ki ana
a Ta Hori Kerei ' katahi ano te rongo ka mau, kua
houhia nei. ' Kei hea koia te tohu o te rongo mau ?
Ina ra, oma atu ana tetahi tangata kohuru kino,
whakarihariha rawa nei, oma atu ana kei whakawa-
kia ia e te Ture, tae ana ki tetahi o nga rangatira
Maori nana nei taua rongo i hohou, a tiakina ana,
whakaorangia ana. Muri iho haere ana te Minita
Maori ma reira, wehi ana ki te tono kia homai taua
tangata. He houanga rongo wairua kau tenei; he
taha tahi anake. Me he moa he tangata Maori
tena i kohurutia e tetahi Pakeha, a oma mai taua
Pakeha ki tetahi o nga taone Pakeha hei oranga
mona, kia hia koia nga rangi e kore ana e tonoa e
nga Maori? Kia hia hoki nga rangi e waiho ana e
te Pakeha, e kore ana e kawea ki te Whare Here-
here?
Me he mea ko tetahi Kawanatanga ke atu, ka
marama matou ki tona whakangawaritanga i te
korera mo taua tu mea. Tera pea ratou e whakaaro
he tika kia pera; e ahei ano hoki ratou te ki, he
rere ke te ahua o tenei mea, he tika kia whakanga-
waritia te Whiti, kaore he tikanga o te mahi kaika,
katahi tonu ano hoki ka mau te rongo ki tena iwi,
me whakamanawanui tatou ki etahi kohurutanga rua,
toru ranei, he mea noa ia, e pena tonu ana te ahua i
etahi kainga Pakeha, a ka pena haere te ahua o te
korero. Otira e kore rawa e tika ena tu kupu i roto
i te waha o te Kawanatanga o Ta Hori Kerei. • Kua
roa noa hoki ratou e korero whakahi ana ki to ratou
were to bear fruit, and peace and prosperity to be
for ever established. Here also there seems to be
some hanging fire. The weather will perhaps not be
Ine then; at all events, it does not seem to be favor-
able now. The cards of invitation are not yet
printed: nobody seems to know who is to issue them;
the gentlemen who would be likely to take the chair
and vice-chair, Tawhiao and Te Whiti, seem in no
hurry to make the arrangements. There seems some
chance that though the guests may be there in the
persons of Sir George and the Native Minister, the
hosts may not. What is to be done ? There are
suspicions that Tawhiao is in the sulks at Rewi
having been made so much of, and himself ' be-
littled. ' What will he say when he hears that
Sheehan slept with Rewi at Waitara, and Rewi slept
with Sheehan at New Plymouth; that Rewi had tea
with the Mayor, and afterwards went to the play;
that he hob-nobbed with the civic authorities, and
made speeches and was speechified. If he was
jealous before, the King will be rabid now, and in
ao humour for jollifications and pacification. There
is evidently a hitch about this great March meeting
that is to settle everything and bring on the millen-
nium, and Mr. Sheehan has found it out.
Then what about Hiroki, and his protector Te
Whiti ? Colonel Whitmore, when asked in the
Legislative Council why the Government did not
bring him to justice, replied that ' they could have
him any day they pleased, delivered at the nearest
police station. ' Why is he not delivered at the
nearest police station ? Mr. Sheehan goes in for
' personal Government ' in Native affairs. This is,
we presume, a specimen of it. He must have passed
within four miles of Te Whiti's pah, Parihaka, where
the murderer is supposed to be. Why did he not
exercise ' personal Government, ' and go for him ?
As far as we can gather he didn't even ask for him.
Those who know the councils of the Parihaka
Natives do say that he would not have been given
up for all ' the personal Governments ' that could
be brought to bear. But what a failure the whole
thing is! ' Peace is at last made, ' says Sir George
Grey. Where is the evidence of it? A cold-
blooded murderer flees from justice, and takes re-
fuge with one of the leading chiefs, who are sup-
posed to have made this peace. The Native
Minister passes by and does not dare to ask for him.
This is a kind of peace which seems rather hollow;
slightly one-sided. If a white man had murdered
a Maori and taken refuge in one of our towns, how
long would he have been unasked for by the Maories,
and how long before he was lodged in jail by us ?
We could very well understand how any other
Government than that of Sir George Grey might
have thought it wise to temporize in such a case as
this. They might have argued that the case was
peculiar, that Te Whiti must be humoured, that
it was no use hurrying, that our friendly relations
with those people were not recent, and we must put
up with a murder or two; it was no worse that what
happened every now and then in Tipperary, and so
forth. But such excuses do not lie in the mouth of
Sir George Grey's Ministry. They have boasted too
long and too loud about their superior fitness to
manage the Natives; they have paraded too often

Tetahi; hei kuaretanga rawatanga ia mo Ta Hori
Kerei ki te mea ka whakarerea e ia tona turanga i
tu ai ia i runga i tenei tu mea. Ina hoki, i te tau
1876, i kohurutia tetahi Pakeha i Akarana e tetahi
Maori, ko Winiata tona ingoa. Ehara i te kohuruta-
nga i puta i runga i nga tikanga nui o te motu; he
pera ia me te kohuru a Hiroki, e ai ki ta te Kawa-
natanga e ki mai nei. I honea taua Winiata; i
maharatia kua tae ia ki a te Kingi, he penei me
Hiroki i oma nei ki a te Whiti. Muri iho kaore
ana a Ta Tanara Makarini kia kite i a te Kingi,
kia korerorero ai raua mo nga tikanga Maori o te
motu nei. Kaore ia i kite i a Winiata, kaore hoki ia i
mohio me he mea i reira ranei taua tangata,
i whea ranei. Me te mea kaore ia i tae ki te pa o
te Kingi, tona ahua. Kihai a te Makarini i
tono kia homai taua tangata, kaore hoki i korerotia
he korero mo taua tangata. Heoi, i te Paremete i
muri nei, ara i te 6 o Hurae, 1876, ka korerotia e Ta
Hori Kerei taua mea i te aroaro o te Whare Pare-
mete; korero kino rawa atu ana a ia i reira ai mo Ta
Tanara Makarini, he korero whakarihariha rawa ia
mo te haerenga o te Makarini ki reira, ara ki
Waikato. Tetahi; kaore i mutu tana mahi i te
korero anake; ina hoki, e mahi ana ano a Ta
Tanara ki te korero ki a te Kingi, tuhituhia ana e Ta
Hori Kerei tetahi reta ki nga Maori Kingi, he reta
whakakino mo Ta Tanara mo tona haerenga kia kite i
te Kingi i te wa e tiakina ana e ia etahi tangata kohuru.
Ki atu ana ia ki a ratou e kore rawa tetahi iwi ranga-
tira o te ao katoa e tuku karere ki tetahi iwi o huna
ana i etahi tangata kohuru i a ratou tangata (ara, a
te iwi e kore nei e tuku karere); a i tino whakahe
rawa ia ki a Ta Tanara mo tana mahi whakakuare
i te iwi Pakeha ki ro paruparu, ara mo tana haere-
nga kia kite i a te Kingi i te wa e huna ana ia i a
Winiata. Otira e mohio ana tatou katoa i wareware
a Hori Kerei raua ko te Hahana ki taua mea; i haere
ano raua kia kite i te tangata e tiaki ana i aua ta-
ngata kohuru; i pura hoki o raua kanohi ki nga ta-
ngata kohuru kino rawa, tokowha, tokorima, i uru
ki roto ki nga hui whakangahau i haere ai raua,
i kakama hoki aua tangata kohuru i roto i aua hui.
Tera hoki a te Kooti e tupekepeke noa ana
i reira, kei te hope anake te kahu, a e karanga ana,
* Ko au te tangata i kiia kia utua taku upoko ki te
moni ko Tapihana tera e manaaki nui ana i a Ta
Hori Kerei, e mea ana mana (ma Tapihana) ia e
arahi haere; tera a Porikoruti me ona kakahu
hoia whakapaipai nei, ko ia te rangatira o te hunga
whakatau i nga Minita i te taenga atu ki reira, ko
etahi e tu ana ano i reira e matakitaki ana. Katahi
marire te hanga whakakuare i a Ta Hori, ko te horo-
manga i ana kupu ake ano ! Ko ana kupu whakahe
kino rawa katoa mo Ta Tanara, kua hoki taimaha
rawa ki runga ki a ia ano hei tino whakakuare i a ia.
Tena pea te whakama; tena te pouri me te mana-
wapa mo tana korero kino i korero ai ia mo Ta
Tanara i runga i te ngakau mauahara i te tau 1876 !
He tika ano ra i totoa marire ano te marire te kii i
roto i te Paremete kua taha ake nei, kaore rawa a
Ta Hori i mohio he tangata kohuru i reira, (ara i aua
hui i Waikato). Otira kaore rawa a Ta Hori i toa
ki te kii pera he kupu mana ano; e kore ano hoki e
tika te kii kaore ia i mohio—i mohio ano, i kite ano
hoki i ana haereerenga ki reira. Ko taua kupu a te
the wonderful negotiations between themselves and
Tawhiao; they have declared to posterity that peace
has been at last made by them; and they have pro-
mised too great things from their personal Govern-
ment ' Besides which, in this particular matter,
Sir George Grey has committed himself to an extent
from which he cannot retreat without considerable
humiliation. In 1876, a similar murder was com-
mitted on a European at Auckland, by a Native,
called Winiata. It was a non-political murder, as
the Government tells us Hiroki's was. Winiata es-
caped, and was believed to have taken refuge with
the King just as Hiroki has done with Te Whiti.
Shortly afterwards, Sir D. McLean visited the King,
for the purpose of friendly negotiation on the gene-
ral bearings of the Maori question. He did not see
Winiata, nor had he any certain knowledge where he
was He did not seem to have been at the King's
pah. He did not demand his surrender, nor make
his case the subject of discussion. In the following
session, on July 6, 1876, Sir George Grey brought
the subject before the House of Representatives
and in doing so, made one of the most severe and
vicious attacks on Sir Donald that ever was made by
any one on a political opponent. But he did more.
While Sir Donald's negotiations with the King were
going on, Sir George wrote a letter to the King
Maories, denouncing Sir Donald's conduct in visit-
ing the King while murderers were under his pro-
tection, and telling them that no civilized nation
would send an ambassador to any other which was
guilty of screening murderers of its fellow-country-
men; and he denounced Sir Donald in unmeasured
terms for having degraded his country and dragged
it through the dirt by visiting the King while he pro-
tected Winiata. Last year, however, we all know
that Sir George and Mr. Sheehan found it con-
venient to forget this; they not only visited the pro-
tector of the murderers, but they shut their eyes to
the fact that at least four or five of the worst of
them were present at the festive gatherings which
they attended, and took an active part in the pro-
Sines There was Te Kooti dancing about with
no other clothes on than a breech-clout, singing out,
'I am the man on whose head a price has been
set; ' Tapihana, thrusting his personal patronage on
Sir George, and offering to lionize him about; Pori-
koruti, dressed up as a generalissimo, and heading
the guard of honor which received the Ministerial
party while others were looking on, or taking a
part more or less prominent in the procession
What dirty pudding poor Sir George was obliged
to eat! All his bitter denunciations of Sir
Donald recoiling on his own head with tenfold
severity and under circumstances of the most
oppressing humiliation. How he must have wished
S his wicked temper had not impelled him to
make that cruel speech against Sir Donald, which he
did in 1876! It is true that Mr. Sheehan had the
audacity to say last session that Sir George did not
know that any murderer were present But Sir
George has never dared to say so himself; and it is
impossible but that he must have known it, and seen
the murderers many times during tae several visits.
This is merely one of those reckless assertions for
which Mr. Sheehan is too noted when pushed into *
corner and nobody does or can believe it. Even
if it were possible to believe that Sir George did not
see the murderers, and know who they were he
knew that they were one and all not far off, in
exactly the same position as Winiata was in 1876
that is, under the King's protection. And now the
Nemesis is redoubled by the Hiroki case. This cold-
blooded, murderer is protected by Te Whiti, one of

kaore i tawhiti ratou katoa e noho ana; e

TE HAPI.
TE WHAKATUPURANGA ME TE MAHINGA.
(He whakaotinga. )
Ko tona wa e whawhaki ai nga puawai ko Pepuere,
mehemea he raumati kino ka tae atu pea ki te
mutunga o Pepuere; otira kia nui te kakara o nga
puawai, kia tataki ki te ringa, ka mohiotia kua
pakari, kua tae ki te wa hei kowhakitanga. E
peneitia ana te kowhakitanga o nga puawai, ara: —
Ka hangaia tetahi mea i te wahi pai e le maara,
ano he taiepa tapawha te ahua, ara me pou i etahi
pou e wha ki te whenua, kia rua i tetahi taha kia rua
i tetahi taha, kia hangai te tu etahi ki etahi, katahi
ka whakakapia nga taha me nga piro ki te papa,
rakau; ko te roa o taua mea kia waru putu, ko te
whanui kia toru putu, ko le teitei kia toru puta.
Ka oti tera katahi ka tango mai i nga tangata wha-
whaki, hei te wahine hei te tamariki, ka whakaturia
kia tokotoru kia tokowha ranei i tetahi taha i tetahi
taha o taua mea. Na, ka tapahia nga hapi i le
putake rawa, ka hapainga mai me nga pou ano i
mau ai, ka whakatakotoria ki runga ki taua taiepa.
Katahi ka timata te whawhaki i nga puawai, ka
hoatu ki roto ki tetahi hiti, aha ranei, ho mea hanga
ki te rakau, pera me te amo. ka whakatakoto ai ki
ranga ki taua taiepa. Kia ki taua hiti i te puawai
the great chiefs of the West Coast. The murder
we are told by the Government, had no political
significance, it was a simple act of vengeance for
some private offence. And yet Sir George Grey's
Government dare not even demand him of his pro
tector, and the red-handed murderer escapes the
gallows, which is his due.
It is possible, however, that under the system of
'personal Government, ' which Mr. Sheehan claims
as his prerogative, there may be some secret negotia-
tions going on with Te Whiti. Rumour says that
Hiroki's protectors are trying to make capital out of
him; that they make out a sort of Dr. and Cr.
account between themselves and the Government, in
which Hiroki's murder is put on the one side, and
the confiscated land on the other: and thus they
strike an even balance, the result of this Maori
book-keeping being that the confiscated land is to be
returned to them, and Hiroki to be let off. We
hope this is not true, but it is exceedingly unsatis-
factory that under this ' personal Government' the
public should be kept in the dark, and the inhabi-
tants of the West Coast, who are so deeply interested
in the matter, should have no more authentic source
of information than such common rumour.
THE HOP
ITS CULTURE AND TREATMENT.
(Concluded. )
The season of picking the hop is usually the be-
ginning of or during the month of February, accord-
ing to tae season; the period may be fixed by the
flowers of the hop acquiring a strong scent, and being
sticky to the touch. The manner of performing the
work of picking is this: —
Frames of wood are raised in the most convenient
part of the plantation; these frames consist of four
boards nailed to four upright posts, the whole frame
being about 8 feet long. 3 feet wide, and 3 feet high.
Six, seven, or eight pickers, generally women and
children, are placed at the same frame, three or four
being on each side. The plants being cut through
at the root, the poles are lifted up and laid on the
frame with the hops upon them. The pickers then
carefully pick off the flowers of hops, which they drop
upon large cloths which are attached to two poles
stretcher-like, and are laid across the frame. When
this cloth is full the hops are empted into a wool-bale
or large sack, or may be carried direct to the hop-
house, and there shot into bins to be ready for the
kiln.

aua kowhao ki te rahi o te waha o te peeke; ka
kuhua ake te ngutu o te peeke ma roto i te korowhiti

tika tenei mo te hoko nga hapi. Ko nga hapi e piri
ana ki nga pou me tangotango, ko nga pou me wha-

Na, ka kitea i runga i tenei korero o te mahinga o

tera e waiho apopo ake nei hei taonga homai i nui te

. The hops are then kiln-dried, which is done by
placing them upon the kiln either on hair cloths, or
the floor of the kiln must be covered, with finely per-
forated wire gauze; the hops should be 10 or 12
inches deep. The heat is gradually increased, so
that the hand, when plunged into the hops, will only
just bear the heat. This temperature should be
continued steady eight or ten hours; they are then
taken from the kiln and laid in a large room or loft,
until they become cool.
The next process is packing the hops into bags or
pockets. In the floor of the room are round holes
equal to the size of the mouth of the bag. The mouth
of the bag is then turned over a strong hoop, which
is made to rest on the edge of the hole, the bag being
let through the hole, and the packer goes into it; a
child or woman puts the hops into tae bag in small
quantities at a time, and tae packer tramples them
firmly down, till it is full, when the bag is drawn up,
and the top sewed down. The hops are now ready
for sale. In the meantime the poles have been
stripped of the stems attached to them, and piled iri
stacks to await the following year.
From this general account of the manner of culti-
vating the hop, it will be seen that the cultivation of
it is attended with considerable care and attention;
yet it is so remunerative a crop as to amply repay the
greatest attention. The reasons why it is not more
generally cultivated in England are: —1. The large
outlay required for poles. 2. Prom its liability to
disease. At the first stage of its growth it is attacked
by an insect of the flea kind; at a more advanced
stage it is attacked by numerous lice, as they are
called, the young of a little green fly; and plants of
the mushroom family grow upon it, forming mildew
or blight.
The kiln and packing-room are constructed under
one roof—the lower or ground floor for receiving
bins and kiln, the upper floor for cycling and pack-
ing. The construction of this building is very simple,
and comparatively inexpensive, but would neverthe-
less require plans and specifications to thoroughly
understand its construction. One such building
would do as the depot for a whole district, where
the hops might be brought to be kiln-dried, packed,
and shipped.
If hop-growing is remunerative in England, how
much more should it be in this country, where the
cost of poles is only the labor of cutting them, and
where there is no insect which attacks them. With
a little care and attention, the hop might be one of
the largest and most profitable exports of New
Zealand.
