Kotahi Putanga i te Wiki.
HATAREI, 26 MEI, 1877.
KUA tu ano te mahi whakaahuareka a te iwi mo te ra
whanautanga o Te Kuini. A kua tata te wha-tekau
tau o Wikitoria i noho Kuini ai mo te iwi o ona
whenua. A ko re mana ona ki tana iwi, e hara i te
mana anake o to kaha uri Kingi anake, engari he pai,
he aroha no aua iwi ki aia, i tino mana ai tana kupu
ana kiia ki ana iwi katoa. He pono ia nei, ko nga
mahi i mahia e te ao nei, i nga ra o Wikitoria e Kuini
una, nga tino tau mahi nui i puta at he pai ki te ao.
i nga mahi o nga Kingi o te ao nei, o te timatanga
mai ra ano o te tangata, i hangaa e te Atua. I te tau
1830, ki ano he Tima kaipuke i rererere noa i enei
moana i Hawaiki nei. A ki ano enei Motu, i kiia hei
Koroni ma Ingarangi. A kahore kau he Taone, ko
Kororareka anake ano te Taone i Tokerau, i Ngapuhi.
a kahore kau he Kura o aua ra hei ako i nga tamariki
kia mohio ki nga nui, me nga mea o to ao nei. He
akoako ano ia ta nga Mihinare o aua ra i nga tai-
tamariki o te iwi ki etahi o nga ako, kia ahua marama
ai nga iwi o Aotearoa nei. Kahore kau he hipi, he
kau, he hoiho i aua ra i noho noa i enei Mota, kahore
kau he kaipuke a te Maori, kahore kau he witi. He
whawhai anake te mahi a nga iwi o aua ru. E ma
whawhai a Ngapuhi ki Waikato, a ko Waikato ki
Tauranga, a he nui noa atu, e kore e pai te korero o
enei mea kino o aua ra te korero, he mea hoki e
korero ana nga kau-matua i nga whawhai o mua, a
pouri ai te whakaaro o te kupu nana nei i heke ai te
toto o iwi i ana ra. A no enei ra te pai i horahia ai
kia tatou. He mea hoki, ko nga tino tangata pai i
haere ki te kauhau i te Rongo-pai a te Atua, ko Te
Wiremu kau-matua, ko Te Hapimana, ko Te Ropiha,
ko Te Waitere, ko Te Paki, ko Te Pihopa Wiremu,
ko Te Pihopa Herewini, ko Te Pihopa Harawira, ko
Te Paraone. A he maha noa atu aua ta tangata maia
ki te kauhau i te aroha a te Atua, a he tangata tino
aroha aua tangata ki te Atua, i mana ai ta ratou
kauhau i ana kupu, he mohio pu hoki na ratou ki te
pono o te Atua, me aua mahi katoa. A na aua
Minita i mariri ai te ngakau a te iwi. a na ratou i tau
ai te rangimariri ki enei Motu katoa. Mei mau tonu
pea te Maori ki te ako a aua Minita, mei karakia tonu
te Maori ki te Atua i akona e aua Minita, penei
kahore he he e tau ki iwi. Otiia, i tae mai nga ra i
kiia ai he atua ke, a ua reira te rara raru me te he,
me te pouri ki te iwi. A no aua ra o te he, i kitea
ai te mahi kino, a te kohuru, a ko te Waitine. Koia
i kiia nei tona ingoa ko Te Pai ko Te Aroha, i mate
kohuru, koia i kiia ai te kupu whakatauki a Te
Karaipiture ki nga iwi mahi he. ''Ko ta tetangata
e ngaki ai, ko tana ano tena e hauhake ai." I te mea
hoki heoi ano ta nga atua he. e mahi ai, ko te mate
ko te rangi ko te kino. A kua pahuri aua tau o rana,
he tau ke enei, he tou hou me kore era tau me ona he.
Ko te pai anake ta tatou e mahi tauira ai, a me ako
e tatou te iwi kia nui ai he mohio pai He
nui te pai mo tatou kei nga tau e haere ake nei. Me
hoki te iwi Maori ki te karakia pono ki Te Atua
pono, i karakia ai nga kaumatua, i nga ra o te oro-
kotaenga mai o nga Minita o Te Atua pona. A
ma reira ka rite ai te Maori ki te nui, ki te mohio,
me te mana a nga Pakeha mohio o te iwi Pakeha.
No te korero i te kui i Omaha, he tini nga rangatira

TE WANANGA.
Maori i korero i te tino korero mo te karakia pono ki
Te Atua, a kotahi o aua rangatira Maori i korero i
ana kupu, a ko aua kupu a Paora Kaiwhata, me ta ki
te Perehi, kia tino kitea ai te pai o aua kupu e te ao
katoa. I rapurapu hoki nga whakaaro o Paora Kai-
whata ki nga pai o nga ra o mua, i nga ra i karakia
ai te iwi Maori ki te Atua pono. I mohio ano aia,
na te whakapono o te iwi Maori i aua ra, i mutu ai te
whawhai o te Maori. A i mutu te kino, i ako te
Maori ki te pai o te iwi noho pai. I mohio a Paora
, ki te rangi e whiti aua te ra, a ki te rangi
e poruru ana i te kapua o te kino o te mate. A i
mahara ano a Paora, ki nga ra, i kotiti ke ai te iwi
Maori ki te karakia ki nga atua ke, a na te kore
whakapono kia Te Karaiti, i tau ai te pouri ki nga iwi
Maori. A na reira i pa ai te mate, me te kai kore
ki te Maori. Otiia ko te tino he, i mahia nukarautia
te Maori e nga Pakeha mahi maminga, a na nga pai
a te Maori ki nga mea he a te Pakeha, i raru ai te
Maori i ana Pakeha mahi he, a na ana mahi he i riro
ai nga whenua a te Maori i aua Pakaha. Otiia nei
ake ano te wa e ora ai, a e hokimai ai nga mea riro
he ki te iwi nona nga mea i riro i te mahi nukarau.
E kore hoki e kiia kia kore ano te tangata kino e
hoki ki te pai. He mea hoki, rae titiro matatu te
Maori, a ka kite aia, he pai kei mua o tatou e haere
mai ana. Ma te iwi Maori e mahi i te mahi pai, a ka
tautokona taua mahi pai e te Pakeha. He tini nga
Pakeha e titiro atawhai mai, ana ki nga iwi Maori, a
e aroha ana te Pakeha ki te Maori. He tini ano ia
nga Pakeha e pai ara kia nui he taonga ma ratou i
nga mea riro he ia ratou o a te Maori mea. Na te
Maori ano ia te whakaaro kore i raru ai te Maori i nga
tangata mahi he. Me hoki te iwi Maori ki nga mahi
pai o te karakia pono ki Te Atua, me mutu te kai
waipiro, me tiaki ratou i a ratou whenua, a ki te mea
e kore ratou e tino mohio ki te whakahaere i nga tini
tikinga o aua whenua a ratou, a me rapu i te Pakeha
pai, Pakeha mahi tika, mahi pono, a me utu aua tu
Pakeha e nga Maori, mo ta ratou whakahaere i ana
whenua ma nga Maori. Me tuku nga tamariki Maori
katoa ki nga kura, kia tino akona nga tamariki Maori
ki te reo Pakeha, ma reira e kite ai te Maori i nga
mohio nui, i roto i te mano mano pukapuka reo
Pakeha a te Pakeha, a e mohiotia ai nga mohio nui o
te ao katoa. A ma te mohio o te Maori ki te-
reo Pakaha, e kore ai te Maori e raru i
nga mahi nukarau o nga Pakeha mahi mami-
nga. A me pera he mahi ma te Maori, me te mahi o
nga iwi o Iharaira o mua, me hoki pono ki te Atua, a
me inoi ki te Atua, kia homai tana kupu whakaora
mo ratou. Mate Atua ano hoki e homai he mohiota-
nga ki te Maori, a ma ana e whakakaha, e tautoko te
Maori kia tika ai a ratou mahi, a kia whiwhi ai ratou
te Maori ki te tino mahiotanga marama. \_\_

TE WANANGA.
Natives, but even in these cases the Natives have
themselves to blame. Let them now go back and
walk in the old paths. Let them give up strong
drink. Let them be careful of their great estates,
and if they cannot manage those great estates them-
selves, get skilful and honest Europeans to manage I
them for payment. Let them put all Maori children
to school that they may learn. Especially let every
Maori child learn to speak and write English. For
without that he cannot become wise in the books
which contain the knowledge of the world. Nor can
he without being able to speak English defend him-
self against those schemers and selfish men who are
looking out for foolish people to cheat. And above
all let the Maoris go—as the people of Israel went in
olden times—humbly to the footstool of God and
there ask for mercy and wisdom.
NGA RONGO KORERO.
TE WHAWHAI KI TE PA A TE TAKE KI
PATOAMA.
E ki ana te korero a te Tuke. He mea whakaeke
e Te Ruhia, te Pa i Poatoma. A e wha te kau mano
o te Ruhia i mate, ko to Pa kihai i taea.
Ko nga kaipuke Manuao o te Ingarihi, kua kiia kia
tu aua kaipuke i te takiwa, ki Ihipa, hei tiaki i nga
mea o reira.
ATTACK ON BATOUM.
Turkish, official accounts state that the Russion army
corps unsuccessfully attacked the entrenchments near
Batoum, but were repulsed with a loss of 40,000 (?)
men.
The British, squadron is ordered to Port Said.
HE KUPU E KIIA ANA.
I te takiwa i tu ai te Kawanatanga e tu nei, i kiia
e koro e roa, ka tu a Te Roretana, hei Minita mo taua
Kawanatanga, a kua kiia ano taua kupu i enei ra. E
kore matou e mea be pono taua rongo, otiia e ahuka-
huka ana ano ia taua korero ki te pono.
IT IS REPORTED.
It will be remembered that on the reconstruction of
the Ministry there was a report that in a short time
Mr. Rolleston would join the Government. That re-
port is now revived. We do not know how much
weight may be attached to it, out the rumor does not
seem to bo without foundation.
TE ARA ATU I TOROKA PEI KI TE KOHE-
KOHE.
E kiia ana e te rongo korero mai i Turanga, e mahia
aua te ara atu ano i Te Kohekohe a tae noa ki Toroka
Pei e te Maori. A ka nui te pai o te mahi a aua
Maori i taua ara. A kei te mahi ano toki te Maori i
te ara atu ano i Makiore, ki Toreka Pei, a e haere atu
ona taua ara ma te Wainui.
ROAD BETWEEN TOLOGA BAY AND KOHEKOHE.
From the Coast we learn that the natives engaged
ia the formation of the bridle track between Tologa
Bay and Kohekohe have completed their task in the
most workmanlike manner. They have commenced
cutting a similar track over Makiore, the first point
between Wainui and Tologa Bay.
TE WHAWHAI TUATAHI A TE RUHIA KI
KAA KI TE PA O TE TAKE.
He korero na te iwi ki nga mahi a te whawhai o
era tau noa atu a Te Ruhia ki te Take, koia matou i
mea ai me korero e matou te whawhai o aua tau a Te
Ruhia ki taua Pa a Te Take ki Kaa.
Ko taua Pa ko Kaa, he Pa i te taha ki te marangai
o te moana mangu. He moana tuawhenua taua moa-
na. A, te matara o taua Pa ki Ararata, ki te maunga
i tau ai te Aka a Noa. i tae ki te rima te kau maero,
ko Ararata kei te Tongo o taua Pa.
A ko nga tangata noho o taua Pa i enei ra e tae
ana kite 15,000 (te kau ma rima mano). A i nga ra
e mua i whakaekea ai e Te Ruhia, e whitu mano
whare o taua Pa i aua ra. A i enei ra. he mea mahi
taua Pa e Te Kake kia tino pai, kia kore ai e taea ana
whakaekea ano e tana hoa riri. A he mea ami ho kai
ki tana Pa, hei o ma te Pa e tae ai ki te kotahi tau e
kai ai te Pa i ana kai ka pau ai, he mea hoki kei noho
karapoti ano tana hoa riri i taua Fa. e whai kai ana
hei kai, e tatari atu ai ki te ope whakaora mona ki
haere atu i etahi Pa o Te Take.
A ko nga parepare o taua Pa i Kaa, he mea mahi
ki te pu repo, e 350 o aua pu repo i kawea ki taua Pa,
Ko Kaa te Pa i tino tata ki te rohe tauarai o te whe-
nua a Ruhia raua ko Take, ki te taha ki te marangai
o ta raua whenua e noho ai. A koia noi te korere o
te whawhai i Kaa i era tau. He mea tuhi tuhi e te
tahi Apiha a te Ingarihi i whawhai i taua whawhai",
ko Tinuara Wiremu te ingoa o taua Apiha Pakeha, a
me mohio noa ki te ahua o te Take i kaha ai tana ako
i taua iwi i nga ra ona i ki ai kia whawhai. He iwi
maia te Take ki te whawhai, otiia kia maia, a kia
mohio nga Apiha hei arahi i te pokai o te riri, ka maia
ai taua iwi. He iwi manawaroa ano hoki ratou. A
ko te ingoa o te Tianara o te Ruhia ko Morawi. A
he men mahi e Te Wiremu te Poa Kaa kia tino kaha.
He tino kore ano huki te Hoia noho hoiho a Te Take.
A be kino nga pu rae nga mea katoa a aua Hoia i nga
ra i turia ai taua riri. E toru te kaa mano o te ope a
Ruhia i turia ai te riri a ratou ki taua Pa ki Kaa. A
ko te Take i noho i taua Pa te kau ma rima ano mano.
A no te 7 o Hune i whakaekea ai taua Pa a Kaa te
rua te kau ma rima mano a te Ruhia, roa noate
whawhai, mate ana ko te Ruhia, takoto iho o taua
taua i te taha o te Pa 1000 tupapaku. Katahi ka
tino awhina taua Pa e te Ruhia, he mea hoki kia
mate te Pa i te hia kai. A ka pua he marama, ka
mate, ka pua te marama, ka mate, me te noho tonu te
Pa ra. Ano ka pau nga kai ma nga Hoiho, he mea
patu era e te Pa hei kai, ka iti haere te kai i te Pa, ko
te matao o te Hotoke tetahi nana i paru te pa. Ano
Ka tae ki te marama o Oketopa, ka paingia te Pa e te
mate kino e kiia nei tona ingoa, he koroni, a 1000 o
te pa i mate i taua mate. A he mea ki e te taua ka
haere a manu kawhaki i aia, ano ka kite te Pa aru-
mia ana, katahi ra ano ka whakahokia e te Ruhia, ka
turia te riri, a hinga iho o te Ruhia e rua mano e rima
rau, e whitu rau o te Take i mate i taua parekura, I

TE HUI KI OMAHU.
Hori te Huki : Ka tautoko au i te rarangi nei, mehemea
pea ka tika, me tono tatou ki te Kawanatanga.
Tikawenga : He kupu pai tenei, he tono taonga hoki
tenei mo tatou. I mahia i mua te Kura, tu ana he Minita
karakia. Koia pea tera, he mea kia tu he Minita, i mahia
i ai nga Kura o era rangi, inaianei, me mahi kia mohio ai
tatou ki te reo Pakeha. (Waiata,) kia tu he Kawanatanga

i kei te pakanga tonu mai kia tatou.

i karakia, me mahi hei ora mo tatou inaianei, a mua ake
i nei hoki, ko te taonga tenei mo tatou, ko te Kura, mo ia
wahi, mo ia wahi.
Henare Matua : I tu ake ai au ko te kupu a Tikawenga,
he maha aku kupu, engari kaore e korerotia e au ki taku
mahara he mea kino te Kura e kore hoki e tukua e te
Pakeha kia uru te Maori ki nga mahi nunui, ko te Pakeha
e tupu ana hei iwi nui, mehemea e pera ana tatou, tera a
tatou tamariki e uru ki nga mahi nunui. Ko te kupu a
Tikawenga te kupu e pai ana, ara, ko te waiho i tenei mea
mo te tunga, o tetahi Kawanatanga ka mahi ai. Engari me

Tikawenga, me waiho i waho tenei kupu.

engari ko tahi ano to Ture, na konei ka pai ka ora ratou, J
mehemea e penei ana tatou, kanui te pai, ka mutu taku; he
oi ki muri ko te whakapai ake ki te rarangi nei.
Manahi : E mea ake ana ahau ki te kupu a Paora e mea
nei kaore moka te rarangi nei (whakamutua ana e Renata
Kawepo te korero a Manahi).
Renata Kawepo : Kaore aa e whakatika ki te rarangi

katahi an ka whakaae, ka mihi hoki ki te rarangi nei.
Horima Katene : Taka he whakapai ki te kupu nei, ki
taku mahara me tuku tenei kupu ki te WANANGA, kia
kitea ai e nga iwi katoa o te Motu nei. Ma ia iwi e kotiti

he whakapai tonu ki te kupu nei. He maha nga Hahi

Haare Paraone : Mo tenei taha katoa, Turanga mai rano,
a Whanganui tena taonga.
Wiremu Wanoa ; E wkakapai ana hoki au ki te Rarangi
nei. E rite ana tatou ki nga tamariki o Iharaira, to ratou
rarurarutanga, na te Atua ka ora. E noho pai ana tatou
i mua, no te putanga mai o nga Atua hou, katahi ka mate
tatou. He tika rawa te rarangi nei, me apiti mai hoki te
Ture, kaore koe e tangata ware, e kuare i tenei rarangi.

THE NATIVE MEETING AT OMAHU.
[CONTINUED FROM 12TH MARCH, 1877.]
Hori te Huki said : I support the motion before the
meeting, and if it is agreed to by this meeting let us send
it on to the Government.
Tikawenga said : This is a good word (the point being
discussed by the meeting), as it is asking for good to be
given to us. Schools were instituted here in former times,
also ministers of God came, and perhaps schools were
opened in those days so that we might also have ministers
of the Gospel. And now in these days let us act so that
we may learn the language of the European (sung a song).
When a new Government comes into power we may send
this request to them (the request contained in the matter
being discussed by the meeting). The Government of
these days are iu continued contention with us.
Haare Paraone said : Let us support schools and public
worship (sung a song). Let us do this so that we may
get life from them now in these days and for the future.
The great property for us to possess is schools in every
district of these islands.
Henare Matua said : I rise to speak, because of the
word of Tikawenga. I have much to say, but I will not
utter all my words now. I think schools arc evil, as the
Europeans will not allow the Maori to learn the great
things of knowledge. The Europeans are growing in
greatness (in knowledge), and if we (the Maori) were (to
do) as they are doing, our children would obtain the great
knowledge also. The word of Tikawenga is the right
word. That is, that we leave the matter now under dis-
cussion till another Government is in power, then we can
take action on this matter. But let the tribes collect
money for themselves. Tikawenga was right when Le
said, let this matter (the question now before the meeting)
stand over.
Noa Huke said : Yes. Let this stand over, as we do
not, or have not seen the Government to which we can
forward this matter. If we send it to the present Govern-
ment, they may not agree to it.
The Chairman put the question to the meeting, and the
meeting agreed to forward it to the Parliament.
The meeting adjourned for an hour and a half.
The meeting was again opened at 3 p.m.
Henare Tomoana in the chair.
The twenty-first subject was read and put to the meet-
ing for discussion.
Noa Huke said : I agree to the words of this subject,
and the point we are to look at in the matter now before
this meeting is the Supreme Court.
Henare Matua said : The Parliament of last year had
this matter before them. It was brought before the Par-
liament by those Europeans who had bought (Native)
land. And even iu these days the European say, do not
let the Supreme Court try the cases in which land is
involved, which were wrongfully bought by them. I
condemn this action of the Europeans of this district.
But if they send petitions to Parliament, we must do the
same.
Hanita said : I am also one who condemns this action
of the European. Let us also send a petition (to Parlia-
ment).
Takarangi said : I ara also one who thinks the same. I
agree to the object of the words of the subject now under
discussion. I have suffered harm. Let this matter be
sent to the House.
Te Katene said : Let us be strong to do this.
Tikawenga said : I agree with the last speakers, do not
let us agree with the European petitions, but let this
meeting send a petition. If they send a prayer to the
Parliament, let us also send a prayer to Parliament.
! Henare Matua said : The Europeans of Ahuriri
(Hawke's Bay) have long since asked the Government to
confirm the mortgages they hold from the Maori. Also
that the Government consent to the purchase of the lands
which they bought previous to the year 1873. That is in
regard to the lands which had passed through the Native
Lands Court previous to that year, which were bought
and mortgaged by them the Europeuns. The Europeans
ask the Government to make a new law to this effect.
That all these purchases or mortgages are correct, and not
one is wrong. And now in these days they are doing even
the same, but Mr. Whitaker and the Parliament are fully
acquainted with that which causes the erritation in the
sale or purchase of these lands.
Pirimona said : It does appear as if this matter were
fully passed. So it appears from the words used by the
speakers who have spoken on this point.
The Chairman explained this matter. He said the peti-
tions of old (the petitions sent in days past) were from one
man, that was from Mr. Williams, but the Europeans per-
! haps of these days are sending a petition from all.
| Karaitiana Takamoana said : Sir D. McLean made a law
for himself, that the Government alone could buy land.
But the Opposition caused this to be opposed, and it came
| to an end so far as Turanga is concerned. This I read
iu the House. The petition from Mr. Sutton in respect to
the Omarumu case was opposed by the Opposition, also
the petition which 1 now hold in my hand, was opposed
by us, and these were put out. But the Europeans of
these days are still acting in the same way. and they
wish a]l the wrong purchases to be confirmed, as if they
had been correctly brought. This is being done at Te
Wairoa and on to Turanga. All that Mr. Sutton is going
to Parliament for is to take his wrongs there so that it may
be said they are correct as they now stand. The reason
the European now act is, because of the Kakiraoa, and
the Awa-a-te-atua blocks. The Europeans know that they
are wrong. And demands have been made by the lawyers,
that the Europeans must pay up back rents now due.
Hence the Europeans have been startled, and they are
now looking for some plan by which they may be saved.
Do not let us agree to these things. But let as shew to
the Parliament the wrong of making any laws, but let the
Supreme Court act in the matter.
Henare Matua said : I think this point is settled, and
may be put to the meeting.
The Chairman put the question to the meeting, and it
was carried without one dissentant voice.
The meeting then adjourned till 10 a.m. next day.

TE WANANGA.
Tuesday. March 13, 1877.
The meeting was opened at 10 a.m. Henare Tomoana
in the chair.
The Chairman read the twenty-second subject.
Manahi said : I do not rise to shew my knowledge, but
to say I agree with the request made in the subject which
we are now discussing. As my thoughts tell me, we are
not living in knowledge in these days. And the purport
of the subject now under discussion is to this effect. It
asks the chiefs and the learned men to act and to think.
It will be well if this is made clear, as given in ihe sub-
ject now being discussed.
Takarangi said : I agree with the subject now being
discussed. I will hold to the name of God for ever. But
I am standing at a distance. This is a very good thing,
that we be active and powerful to put evil down, and
extinguish it. There is not any other matter so good as
peace and quiet, and that we obtain them.
Tikawenga : The point now being- discussed is good, as
it calls on all the great men of these islands, as they are
the men to work. I belong to all the various meeting of
these islands. These are the various meetings. The
King movement is one. prophets are another. Now. while
I speak of these matters do not be offended with me.
There is only one faith in these islands and that is the
root of the King (or Kings are ordained by God). When
Potatau was alive he said, hold to the faith (Christianity)
and to the good. (Here the speaker told a fable). You
have the road now (the power to lead is with you), but do
not lead us back to the road of old, to evil and death, but
rather let us go on in the worship.
Paora Kawhata said : The matter before the meeting
speaks of good for us. This subject is for us, and for
European men. It is not for you, U Manahi, as you are
with the Ministers of God.' This subject speaks to all the
people of these islands. It says that they are all to return
and worship the true God. If I were to speak of the good
that the worship of God did for us iu former days you
would see how great was that good. The men of those
days (when we all worshiped the true God) were like
fathers to each other, or acted like brothers to each other,
though they were not related in body. yet they were in
kind acts, as though they were relatives.
The Whanganui tribes are petitioning the House
on this subject. The Minister of this place committed
adultery, and it was talked of at all places.
Paora Kaiwhata said : It is not night (we shall not
gam any power) by speaking evil of our Minister.
Waikato people came here, and they introduced evil
speaking, but if we are to be led by evil speaking let it be
the power to make us worship the true God.
Karauria said : The subject before the meeting is good.
I am one who has been hit by the blow given by the sub-
ject now under discussion. I was a member of the Church
in days past. I now am a Hauhau. I agree with the
subject now being discussed, which calls on us to go into
[ the Church again. The object of the subject being dis-
cussed is not in regard to the Hauhau only, but it is
spoken to all people.
| Katene said : I rise to say the subject being discussed
is good. I will not go from the point, but speak direct to
the subject. It (the object of the point under discussion)
calls on the chiefs and the men who caused evil to come
on us, and to the men of little note amongst us. The sub-
ject is good.
Wiremu Te Ota said : The subject under discussion is
good. I agree with what Manahi said. This subject ia
exceedingly good and clear.
| Henare Matua said : I agree with the subject under
discussion. It asks us to go back to the worship of the
true God. I say what this subject says. It speaks to all
ia these islands, and to us. This is my great word. Let
us have one law, and let it be the one law of these Euro-
peans who worship the true God. There are many sec-
! tions of the Church, but only one law. Hence they (the
i Europeans) are saved (protected). If we were to follow
their example it would be good for us. I will not say any
more than that I fully approve of the matter contained in
the subject now being discussed.
Manahi said : I have but one remark to make, and that
is in respect to what Paora Kaiwhata said. That the
object of the subject which we are now discussing does
i not apply to me. (Renata Kawepo requested Manahi to
. sit down).
Renata Kawepo said : I do not rise to speak on the sub-
ject now under discussion. If the King and Taranaki
accede to this proposal (that contained in the 22nd pro-
posal) then I will consent to it. I will then praise it.
Horima Katene said : I approve of the subject now
under discussion, and I propose to send it to TE WANANGA
that all the tribes of these islands may see it. and if they
will go their own way that is for them to decide. But do
not let them bear malice. I fully agree with the word.
i That there are many sections of the European Church,
i but the root of all is God.
Haare Paraone said : Let this (the subject now under
i discussion) be for all this coast, and for Turanga, even up
to Whanganui. Let this good be for all.
Wiremu Wanoa said : I agree with this subject now
under discussion. We are like the children of Israel, who
i were in confusion. but it was God who saved them. We
were living in life in the former years (when we worshipped
! the true God), but when strange Gods were introduced
amongst us, then death came to us. True, o true is the
words of this subject now under discussion. But let the
law (English laws) be given with the law of God. You,
o poor man, can not be ignorant of the purport of the sub-
ject under discussion.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE WANANGA.
The following few words may be amusing to the peo-
ple of these islands. On the first of the days of the month
of January last, ira the year 1877, a meeting of the Ngati-
porou took place at Whiritoa, in the Tauranga district.
The cause of the meeting taking place was to feel sorrow
before God. There were all the tribes called to come to
that meeting, and that the tribes were to meet on the first
day of January without fail. Then the tribes began to
collect, viz., Te Arawa, Ngatiawa, Ngaiterangi, and other
tribes. There might be at that meeting 150 in all. This
meeting felt the want of food. They had flour only, may
be it was only half a ton, and it was made into porridge.
But they had not any dishes. The dishes they had to use
were the shell of the mussel from the sea, and the plates
were of the same. The cups were the mats oa which
children had slept and messed. Seme of the child-
ren, the boys of Te Arawa tribe, said there are no dishes
in which to hold the bergoo for us, that is for him and his
young friends. He lifted up his head and took his hat
off, and bailed the hat full up of bergoo. And he and all
his young friends eat out of the hat. The Ngatiporou
tribe said the hat had cursed God, and that the hat should
not be taken to the house of God. That boy said in answer
to them, this evil originated with you (you caused me to
act as I have done) in your not having given a dish to
us. You gave (instead of dishes) mussel shells in which
to hold the flour for me and my young friends. Now this
meeting of hunger ended on the 20th day of January,
1877, and all the tribes went to their places. From
HARE HIRA,
Of Te Teko Rangitaiki.
