CLASS VII.—NATIVE DEPARTMENT.
Salaries and contingencies, £16,887 5s.
Mr. SUTTON asked the Native Minister whether he did
not think the Natives might not very well be expected to
pay for their own medical officers. Nearly all the medical
officers provided for in the estimates might be struck out.
Mr. Sheehan would rather increase the number than
strike any off. When the bulk of the Native people
were able to read and write English, these officers might
be dispensed with ; but at present it would be impossible
to do so.
Dr. Henry called attention to the salaries of two Asses-
sors in the Waikato District, one of whom received £400 a
year, while the other only got £50 a year. Why was this
difference made ?
Mr. Sheehan—Because one had little or no work to do,
whereas the other was about the most trusted and useful
officer of the Government in the Waikato.
Mr. Gisborne wanted to know why the interpreter to
the Legislative Council got £200 a year, when the inter-
preter to the House of Representatives only sot £80 a
year. There did not appear to be any provision for the
employment of the former officer during the recess. He
was also desirous of obtaining some explanation as to the
duties of the Civil Commissioners. There was one at
Auckland, and another at Taranaki but none at Napier,
although there was a very large Native population there.
Were these gentlemen merely Native agents of the Go-
vernment at these places? If so, could not they be done
away with, or put under some other title which would re-
quire a smaller salary ?
Mr. Sheehan replied that the interpreter of the Legisla-
tive Council worked in the office during the recess, and
received nothing additional to his salary for his special
duties in the Legislative Council, those duties \_
ceedingly small. With regard to the Civil Commissioners,
that was a title which ought really to be obsolete, as the
law under which they were appointed bad censed to exist.
They were purely Native agents. He might say, with
regard to the Civil Commissioner at Auckland, that that
gentleman was also a Resident Magistrate, and travelled
to districts north of Auckland, and there heard European
as well as Maori cases. If it was possible to make a sav-
ing in this respect, the Government would do so.
Mr Bowen said the Commissioner at Auckland was
supposed to travel to the districts north of that place, but
in reality used not to do so. His (Mr. Bowen's attention
had been drawn to the matter when he was in office, and
a great desire had been expressed by the people of those
districts to have visits from a Resident Magistrate.
Mr. Sheehan said when he came into office objections
were made that this gentleman did not travel through the
districts referred to, but he was doing so now. He ac-
knowledged it was a question whether some reduction in
the expense connected with this officer might not be made,
and he would take the matter into consideration as soon
as the House rose.
Captain Russell would like to know why no salaries
were put down for the schoolmasters at Pakowhai and
Omahu this year, although there had been last year. He
was aware the schools were closed at present, but it would
be well to re-open them.
Mr. Sheehan said the school at Pakowhai had been
sed for two years, and that at Omahu for a year. He
had that day taken steps to re-opon the former, and if he
succeeded he would make provision for the salary of the
schoolmaster.
Mr. Kelly would call attention to the fact that no pro-
vision was made for the establishment of schools in Tara-
naki, which was thickly populated with Natives. It was
very desirable that an attempt should be made to estab-
lish Native schools there. He hoped the Native Minister

West Coast, brought this matter before the Natives at
every meeting he held with them. The fault lay with
the Natives themselves that there were no schools in the
district ; but he believed they were arriving at a better
state of feeling now. Although there was no sum placed
0:1 the estimates, he would take upon himself, with the
consent of his colleagues, to establish schools should an
opportunity arise ; and he had no doubt the House would,
next year, sanction the expenditure.
Mr. Sutton asked whether " General contingencies"
covered the expenses of the various meetings between the
Native Minister and Premier and the Natives in the
Waikato and at Waitara. He found, on looking over
the document which purported to contain an account of
what took place At those meetings, and which had been
laid on the table of the House, such items of expense as
thirty dray loads of provisions drawn by two hundred bul-
locks. Then the House was given to understand that the
Government had erected the buildings in which the meet-
ings were held, and went to considerable expense in other
ways. Did all this come out of " General contingencies"
as he saw no other provision for it?
Mr. Sheehan replied that in this respect the present
Government had not departed from the practice of their
predecessors. The vote to which the honorable gentle-
man referred did cover these expenses. Ministers were
bound to meet the Natives, and did so as economically as
they could, but of course had to incur some large
expenses. If necessary, he would be prepared to
submit the details of the whole of this expenditure
to the House, when he knew that the House would
give him a dean sheet. The dray loads of provi-
sions to which the honorable gentleman referred were
supplied, by the Natives themselves, and not by the
Government. Of course the Government gave their con-
tributions in this way, and also erected the buildings in
which the meetings were held but that at Waitara was
BO cheaply put up that Rewi declined to meet in it, saying
•he was not accustomed to being received in a fowl-house,
and indeed a great part of it fell down on those who were
inside.
Mr. Taiaroa wished to know what provision was to be
made for a correspondent at Dunedin to the Native Office,
as he saw the item was struck out this year.
Mr. Sheehan said it was intended to send an officer
from the Native Department down amongst the Natives in
the South, and with him, some Native lads, who were
now being taught in the office, and were rapidly picking
up the English language. The officer sent down would
assist Mr. Watt, the Resident Magistrate, who. he might
take the opportunity of had never drawn a salary
for doing this work, althought the House had voted it.
Vote, £16,887 5s., agreed to.
Native Schools, £14,500.
Mr. Murray objected to the increase in the capitation
allowance to these schools, and wanted to know why it
was that, while the House deprecated religious teaching:
in European schools, it should contribute to that class of
teaching in Maori schools. He referred more particularly
to the Te Aute School, which had very valuable endow-
ments in land. The administration of that Trust was
enquired into by Committees of both Houses last year,
and it was found that it had not been conducted iu a satis-
factory manner.

TE WANANGA,
NATIVE LAWSUITS BILL.
A motion for adjournment being negatived on a
division, the House then went into Committee on the
Native Lawsuits Bill.
Mr. Stout said the Government agreed to insert in the
Bill the names of Messrs. Cook, Mansford, and Higgin-
botham as Judges, and also to limit the period during
which actions could be brought forward to two years.
This appeared to satisfy the Hawke's Bay members, but
Mr. Moorhouse created an unexpected diversion by pro-
testing against these private arrangements between in-
terested parties, and saying that Mr. Stout's proposal was
an insult to the Supreme Court Judges.
Mr. Stout said that Judge Richmond had once himself
publicly remarked that it was impossible for the Maoris to
get justice in the Supreme Court.
As it became evident that in this temper of the House
nothing could be done, progress was reported, and the
House adjourned at 3.20.—Daily Telegraph.

Ko te take kaore tenei whenua i Kootitia, Kaore i Ka-

Notice by me, by Te Hapuku, respecting the Lake
Poukawa, that it shall not be Drained after my
Death.
The following is a law made by me, by Te Hapuku, which
shall be an unalterable law for my lands at Te Hauke which
have rot passed through the Native Lands Court, and this
law shall be a law to all future generations.
Friend, the Editor of TE WANANGA, publish this, my
notice, to all the world, and let it go over all the world, so
that all the tribes who live oa these islands may see it, that
is. all the Maori and European people. Let it appear in the
Maori and English languages.
Now, this is my word : That the Poukawa Lake shall not
be touched or meddled with by European or Maori, nor shall
anyone dig or make a drain, by which the water shall escape
(from the lake), and thereby cause the lake to dry up. I
will not be right or just if any person whatever assume any
right or authority over my lands. I have a name ; I have
authority over all the lands which I own, and this portion I
now hold is very small—it is Te Hauke only—so that this
portion shall be left as it was ia days gone by, according to
Maori customs and rights. And let no Crown grant, no inves-
tigation by the Native Lands Court be made or held for this }
land, Te Hauke, and on to Poukawa Lake, which is now held
according to Maori right, so that this, my Maori Law, shall
take effect ou it, as such law was the law of my ancestors for
ages past and even down to the days iu which I, Te Hapuku,
have lived.
Friend, the Editor of TE WANANGA, send my law to Sir G.
Grey, that he may approve of this, my Maori law. But I
have power over my own lands. Let this notice be published
each Saturday of the months of all the year 1878.
This is the word of the meeting of old chiefs in support of
the words of Te Hapuku, and it is true that we heard his
words that not any European should meddle with or cut
drains, so that the water of the Lake Poukawa could escape,
and thereby drain that lake. And the reasons for his words
are these : This land has not been passed through the Native
Lands Court, there has not been a Crown grant issued for it,
and it is held by Native title, as he, Te Hapuku, is the sole
PANUI KI TE IWI NUI KATOA.
HE mea atu tenei na maua na TEREINA, rana ko KAHI-
TANA, kua tu ta mau Toa Hoko Kakahu i Nepia, i
