Moarjanui then said : I will send out my own constables and destroy your house. Rika Raka left for Shortland to take out summonses against them. At n meeting the murder of Sullivan was declared to be perfectly right. The natives are much divided amongst themselves. The Advertiser states on good infor mation that immediately upon recep tion of the first telegram announcing the murder of Sullivan, the Superin tendent either waited upon or 'or saw Mr Vogel, and suggested that instant steps should be taken. He proposed to oft'er are ward of '£1,000 for the murderer, and to muster the avail able force in the Waikato for instant pursuit. Mr Vogel returned to Mr Gillies a prompt and decisive answer, equivalent to " mind your own business." The wound suffered by Mr Mackay •in the scuffle is very slight: a mere abrasion of the skin. Some natives believe that Euru was instructed by the chiefs to enter Mackay's tent and go through a sham attack, in order to show Mackay that he was there on sufferance, and his life was in their hands. It is believed that the native did not actually intend to take Mackay's life, as ample oppor tunity was afforded during the night for doing so, if he had chosen.

GRAHAMSTOWN.

This day. A. little girl named Marshall was playing on a truck at Tararu, when it ran over her chest, injured two of her fingers, and tore off one of her hands. Her thigh was much crushed.

COROMANDEL.

This day. The Tramway cage has been" re paired. The Whakaroa battery is at work on Buffalo specimens. On the foreshore to-day the men secured eight tons of debris, which shows even better prospect than yes terday.

TAURANGA.

This day. Th Southern Cross returned to Ohiri yesterday. She was detained by bad weather until to-night, and will sail again for Auckland at six o'clock. The natives here are docile and amicable, and have no sympathy with the murderers of Sullivan.

Wreck of the Brig Moa.

All Hands Saved. Insured for £1,500. OAMARTJ. This day. The brig Moa, Captain Robertson, loaded with grain for Auckland, has gone ashore. She left Lyttelton for this port on the 29th ultimo, and after taking in cargo was awaiting a fair wind to sail for Auckland! when heavy gales set her ashore. All hands were saved. The Moa belongs to Captain Robertson, and was built at Auckland in 1849 by Mr Niceol, of the North Shore. She has been connected with the Auckland trade more or less ever since. She was insured in the office of the New Zealand Insurance Com pany for £1,500.

The trial of the Tichborne claimant, for perjury, has commenced. Mr Hawkins, Q.C., opened the case for the prosecution. In his address he said they would rely mainly upon proving that the claimant is Arthur Orfcon. Abbe Latiero and Piere Lefevre will be the first witnesses examined. Several Australian witnesses have arrived. The notes of the claimant's examination a the previous trial will be read over, and will occupy three days. Mr Norwood, a shipowner at Hull, has ob tained a rule mat for criminal information against Mr Plimsoll, M.P. for Derby, for cer tain libels written and published by him in a recent work, in which he endeavoured to show that many shipping disasters were caused by vessels being sent to sea in an over loaded or unseaworthy condition. The owners of the wrecked steamer At lantic have obtained a fresh inquiry. The wool sales are proceeding briskly. Last quoted prioes continue to rule. Washed wools are rather lower, but wool in grease advances a half-penny.
