reidin" This Bill and two others before the House dealing with matters affecting natives seemed to have been drawn up by different persons, asthey were in opposition to each other. These technical matters might seem to the majority of members of tnvial import ance, but in dealing with these reserves and the natives lands in Auckland it was a question to them of life and death. He then proceeded to criticise the provisions of the Bill in detail to show how injudicious Comm3ne Cr was absolutely entrusted with more power than a. judge of the Supreme Q onr t An important point was omitted altogether, viz., providing for an intention on the part of native owners to settle and cultivate the land. Why, when the colony had a Native Lands Court competent to deal with every question likely to arise in connec tion with native reserves, should they create distinct machinery by sending a commissioner round the country to do the work of the Native Lands Court, and find owners for himself? Why practically supersede a system which cost them so much to estab lish by creating another of wliich they could not say how it would work, though any one acquainted with the probabilities of the case would not be sanguine of its success. He pointed out many other sections which raised important issues which were retrogressive steps in dealing with natives. After the Bill provided for the payment of Native Com missioners and salaries of Chiefs who would assist them if it were found even then that they could not do all the work required to be done. Taking the various clauses of theßill, •ad applying them'to the measures as a whole, he submitted the Bill was very incoherent. The system, the Bill proceeded upon, was radically wrong. He regretted that the Go vernment did not see their way to placing the administration of these native reserves in a Nativo Lands Department. Not as it was now, that when any revenue was derived from them it went principally to pay the salaries of the officers who administered them. How incongruous was the course adopted by the Government in the case of large blocks of native land and small re serves. The natives were supposed to-be able and wise enough to dispose of blocks of four and five hundred thousand acres, and yet were treated as childfen when they had the management of a few acies. He trusted the Government would withdraw the Bill.

Mr Tairoa opposed the Bill. He did not understand it, and was at a loss to know why it was introduced. If the Government were: anxious to legislate on the question of native reserves, he hoped they would see their way to introduce some simpler measure. The Bill was like a Native Councils Bill. If one was wanted the other waa not. He would oppose the Bill if he stood alone. Mr Gillies strongly objected to the Bill. He said the sooner the House ceased to separ ate legislation and treat the natives like children the better. Mr McLean's views had become stereotyped from long habit. The Bill contained nothing|giving the natives con trol over reserves which were given by natives themselves from their own lands. The natives were quite able to look after their own interests, and would chafe and writhe at the. Government keeping them in leading strings. He considered that European reserves had been grossly mismanaged. There should be no interference by Govern ment. The same law should exist both for the Maori and the European. Mr Shepherd differed entirely from the sentiments of the hon. member, and com mended the action of the Government in a long speech. »: Mr Fitzherbert dissaproved of the Bill. There was a general tendency npw to raise the natives. This Bill was retrogressive, and was taking from natives reserves made by themselves. The natives were suspicious of this tendency. Great care of interests on the part of the pakeha should be taken. If natives are equal to making laws Europeans are able to manage their own trusts for Maoris. He objected to large powers being given to the Governor in per son, and would confide in the worst Ministry rather than in any Governor acting irrespon sibly out of Council. He had suffered enough from the exercise of such irresponsible powers. Mr Fox agreed with giving more power to natives, and would support the Bill. Mr Rolleston urged the Opposition and native members to induce Government to withdraw the Bill. Mr T. Kelly supported the Bill. Mr Maclean replied at some length, offer ing to postpone all important clauses. The House then went into committee, when clauses one to eight were passed and nine to sixteen postponed; also clause twenty-four, regarding the appointment of native chiefs on the Board of Advice. Progress was reported on the motion of Mr Sheehan. The House adjourned until 12.20.

THE EVENING STAB, TUESDAY, AUGUST 19, 1873



[Advertisement. ] " Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judg ment." (To the Editor of the Thames Advertiser.) S IE,—The publication of Mr Thomas Crr'g's letter in your issue of this morning has caused me to submit the following unvarnished state ment of facts to the unprejudiced criticism of the public: — When I built the Scotia in Grahnmstown in 1868 I was deficient in money to pay Mr T. W. Brown, timber merchant, Auckland, to the extent of about £144. for material to that amount obtained by me from him. and I then promised to make over the property as securityforpa'vmentto him ; subsequently I did so, but on the understanding that whenever the sum above-mentioned should be re-paid Mr Brown would re-convey to me. Instead of re-conveying as above, and giving me some little time to pay, Mr Brown sold the property to Mr J. S. Macfarlane, if not for a song, for the latter again sold to Mr Dornwell, the present owner of the property, for £850. I did not acknowledge the validity of the last sale, and therefore paid Mr Edwin Heaketh, solicitor, Auckland, £5 to enter a protest aeaiust the sale of the property by Mr. Dornwell This Mr Hesketh, for some (unexplained): reason, failed to do, and Mr Dornwell, by judgment . of the Supreme Court, ejected me from the property, thereby leaving me and my family homeless. .The case between Macfailane and my=elf therefore stands thus :— £&50 received by Macfarlane from DornweJl; £144 due by me : balance due to me, £65(5. In answer 'to my demand for account of balance I was coolly informed that Mr John McLiver was indebted1 to Mr T. W. Brown in the sum of £500, which, it was stated, I promised to pay. This I emphatically deny, ■ and, moreover, I do not believe that Mr John McLiver was ever one penny indebted to either Macfarlane or Brown ; perhaps the reverse is the case. I write this not for my own boneflt, but for that of my creditors (up to the time f f my insolvency) who are entitled toreceive, out of the estate, 'the 'amount , equitably and legally due. The present Trustee In Banl'ruptcy would certainly not exceed his duty were he j for the benefit of his clients to thoroughly investigate' the truth of my statement more closely and m'ore thoroughly than he has hitherto done. I was. on the day of the forced sale, »ffered £1,200 in the room in which the sale took place for the property, which offer I'declined to accept. Even a day or two after such sale took place I was, by Mr Brock, solicitor, (who wa» employed by me in the matter), offered £150 to close, the affafr. and this I refused to accept, he evidently at the time acting on behalf of Mr Macfarlane, who now holds the money. I now ask the puh"c to judge —■Where J'esthe responsibility?— Yours, &c, Alexander Giiaan. Grahamstown, August 15, 1873. AUCKLAND COLLEGE AND GRAMMAR SCHOOL.
