CORRESPONDENCE.

THE PARIHAKA QUESTION.

(To the Editor.)

But,—Having carefully wad the leading article in this morning's issue of the "Herald," I beg to state, for the informa tion of the water ot that article and the public in general, that until the Govern ment made their present warlike movement, it was apparently unnecessary tor any person to go into the matter further than bad previously been done. I endeavoured, as Special Commissioner, to make the position of affairs clear, and without any leaning towards either European or Maori. I accuse the Royal Commissioner of viewing the case through Taranaki spectacles, and of acting inadvisedly and injudiciously by commencing to investigate the Woimote and Parihake question before in quiring into the outside alleged wrongs and grievances of those natives who had no interest whatsoever in either the Parihaka or Waimate districts, and who could have been removed with ease from the influence of Te Whiti. With respect to Mr J. C. Firth's letter, he is a fentleman who, in despite of very strong laori opposition, acquired a large estate at Matamata, but he did not attain his ob ject without losing large numbers -of his stock. When the late Mr William Buck land, M.H.R., advocated war, and went so far as to request the Colonial Secretary to take up the cudgels on their behalf, and to rescue their cattle from Hauhau custody, Mr Firth objected, and nobly said he would sooner lose the whole 300 head than plunge the country into war. The Government, under the pressure of his advice, held their band, and that portion of the Waikato and Uppsr Thames was benefitted by the action then taken. Some persons say that Mr Firth once,. advocated war. He did—but it was under very different circumstances to the present. In 1863 it was quite probable that if we did not cross the Maogatawhiri swamp and stream to attack the Waikato trib.es-who had their con structed fortifications at Rangiriri, they would have been the aggressors, therefore I have no hesitation in asserting tbat he then took the right position] the same as he has done on this occasion. Te Whiti doubtless is at present suffering from a semi-religious mania, but at the same time "there is a method in his madness," Hour forces march to Parihaka without, resistance, and the natives under their firm belief in his supernatural powers allow him to be arrested, it is very questionable whether we should reap any benefit by Oar action. Te Whiti told me that he would be the Saviour of New Zealand, and that when he, by crucifixion, became the atonement for the sins of his people, all the Europeans.and th-Queen and King natives wonld vanish from the face of the earth. This having been accomplished lie would rise from the dead, and simultaneously with his resur rection all natives who lived in these islands before the advent of the Europeans would also return here, and then the millennium would fellow. Assuming that Te Whiti is successfully arrested without bloodshed, wiil not his followers, when they ascertain that his predictions are not fulfilled, and that he has throughout been deceiving them in order to keep peace with the Pakeba— be very likely to turn against us and commence hostilities. Te Whiti has done more in preventing war on tha West Coast than all the Govern ment officials who from time to time have interfered or acted in the matter—in cluding myself among the number. If our forces are resisted by Te Whiti and his foi lowers it means a two or three years struggle—and as there are from eighty to ninety miles of dense forest in the rear of Parihaka, it will be rather difficult to prosecute a snccessful campaign, against these Maoris, who are well acquainted with the whole of that portion of the country.. It required a very large force to conquer the Waikato district, which is, compared with Taranaki, a very open find accessible conntry, and with the history of onr former reverses on the West Coast, It maybe well to pause before assuming an aggressive position—even though the writer of th .leader in the "Herald '.' should be of opinion that it is impolitic to rip up the unhappy past, and only right to act promptly against Te Whiti. Why should those who counsel a peace ful solution of the present difficulty he con demned 1 It is only recently that the Go vernment in Cabinet and in the Executive Council scouted Mr Bryce's warlike proposals, and he retired from the scene. Now, we find this heaven-born Whanganui Cincinnatus coming from the plough at the request of his late Ministerial oppo nents, and assuming the supreme control of a colonial question of great magnitude underJTaranki-cnm-Whanganuiauspi_es.— ; I am, &c, JAMBS MACKAV.

MR FIRTH ON THE PARIHAKA DIFFICULTY.

(TotheEdltoh.

Sib -The Btate of affairs at Parihaka and the Watmate Plains demands the earnest attention of every colonist. In 1860 the fires of War lighted on the West Coast Spread intoevety dis trict ot the North ftland south of the city of Auckland. For many subsequent years the King natives of the Waikato frontier kept aloof in a sullen and isolated condition. Murders were committed, oattle were killed or drlyen off, and peaceful .oßOapation of various pieces of land On the frontier was Impossible. For A long time a feeling ot insecurity prevailed, developing fet Intervals into panic, more or less severe. DUring all that time, not one murderer In the Waikato district ha? been arrested, h.r has redreßS been ob tained by the fiettlera for the losses they have sustained. But a brave patience has at last conquered. Some months ago Tawhiao, the Maori King, occompomed by four hundred of his followers, ot his own accord visited all tho Waikato set_bments, whore he was hospitably entertained by the settlers. In the opinion of thofio beat able to judge, this alienation Ond iso lation of the Maoris in this part of the colony were at an end. and a lasting peace On the point of being established. In consequence of these happy relations every disputed piece of land on the frontlet has been hano cd over by the King to the European claimants, and the moat amiC-ble relations have been established. Whilst this happier state of things has been developing in the Waikato oountry, Unpleasant relations be tween the west Coast Maories and the settlers have been developed. Uu'der the leadership of Te Whiti, the West Coast natives hove con stantly assorted that they woro not fairly dealt with, bat except by fenolng and cutting down tenoes, they have not only hot Committed any act of war, but have refrained from cOmmlting any aot ofviolenoe which could not have been dealt With by the ordinary courts. The extra- Ordinary influence of Te Wbiti over the Maories IS an enigma diffloult to explain. ThatlnflUence, With the excoptionjlof his famous pakanga Bpeech.haß been constantly exerted on theside of peace. That he Bbould have been able to control the most turbulent set of Maories in the island is most marvellous. Ond for us most fortunate. Mors especially when we take Into account the fact that the Maories had graVe Cause of com plaint, ub shown by various Blue-books, and again by the letters of Mr James Mao. ay, in your columns, and those of the "Herald a day or two a .0. That these grievances were a foot, is Bufficien tly shewn by the appointment of a Royal Commission to inquire into and remedy them, after twelve years of unavailing Complaint. Under the Influence of Te Whiti the West Coast Maoris have endeavoured to assort their rights by ploughing, eroding ond cutting down fences, and when arrOßted hundreds ot them quietly Went to prison. During all these arrests and Imprisonments not a shot has been fired, not an act of war has been committed by them, with the single e_Oeptlo_ of tbe murder of Maclean. Government has now deolded to take active measures to destroy To Whiti's influence. Under certain contingencies, it is proposed within tho next few daja to arrest To Whiti at his settlement of Parihaka. Should tbis arrest ba made with or without bloodshed, Te Whitl's influehoe Will, of course, bo at on end. And what then} His mantle will probably fall on Tohn, a leader of a very different tohiper, or, if TohU be captured or killed, a large body of turbulent natives will And themselves without a leader and without hope of redress. Under such circumstances, tho Maori demooreoy may be expected either to be completely cowed, or, under the fierce stimulus Of a wild despair, driven to oommit the atrooltieß usually attendant Upon Maori warfare. In that oase, what shall web aYe gained 1 Would it not be wiser to carry out the policy so BUoceßSial in Waikato? In the meantime, the Government is collecting Its forces from North end Houtta. and Maori contingents are Rooking from Waikato and elsewhere to To Whiti's standard. The fern is apparently on the point of being lighted. When ones the conflagration begins, it is hard to say where it may end. Even now, When we are Within a " measurable distance Df civil War," Would it not be a wiser and a nobler polioy for the strong white race to hold its hand and redress acknowledged grievances, rather than by rashlng Into War to destro. the rem nants of a race, which. Whatever its faults, Is not Without many nowe qualities. If war once be_i_3, this will probably be one of the results, but It will not be the only one. For, let the colony plunge into War now, and wo may bid good-bye for many a year to the prosperity already dawning upon Us.—l am, &0., J»c. Firth.

MAJOR MORROW AND THE VOLUNTEERS.

(To the Editor.)

Sib,—Having obsef Ved in your issue of yester day, the following paragraph having reference to my enuoavou-ito raise a company for active BerVice, from amongst the variouß Volunteer curps, viz.—" Still there must tiafi. bsen some other cause at work, to account for Major Mor row's complete failure to enlist recruits for a month's picnic, because, while he faffed to en list more than a dozen men out Of the 230 present at the last meeting, 20 members of Auokland corps have actually accompanied the Thames contingent. This looks as though there was some objection to rally ing under Malor Morrow's command." You _«. I _ssUme, unaware of the fact, that in addition to the 12 who offered their sarvioes on that evening, seven of th« Artillery were pre pared to enrol on the following day, a Btatement to which at least one of their own officers will testify, and this latter number, together with the original 12. formed the greater part of tho Auokland contingent alluded to by Tttu. In addition to which, the 5 men OX the Auokland Soottißh Company who went, formerly belonged to tho Thameß, and It was only reasonable to suppose that they Wou! d be anxious to attach thetoselveß to their old corps. Now, I feel, in defence of tho position I hold amongst the volunteers, bound to ask. If your statement is a conclusion .drawn by yourself, as this inferenoo implied Is so palpable aa to malign my charac ter as a volunteer officer; and suoh being the case, I challenae you to make a direct statement, whioh will be more manly than tbe subterfuge to whicti you have already resorted. It not your own conjeoture, but an inspiration Of another, or others, then, regarding you in the position of amanuensis, yon will, perhaps, be good enough to _sk your Informant, or inform onts, to adopt that erpedien .bearing signature, of course. This will then place me In a proper light before volunteers ond public In either cane, the onus of proof will rest with one or the other party, as I Bhall Beck an opportunity, if neces sary for Buoh, before a fall meeting ot the vari ous corps In the distrlot, in whose bands I shall placa myself for an expression of opinion, as to my fitness or otherwise, for the position I hold, being in a measure responsible to them and not to you. I trust your "motto" will oot as your guidance in reply to this. And if what you have so strongly insinuated remains without proof, then tho sense of honotir which one man expeots at the hand of his fellow will impel you, I trust, to adopt the course which will plainly BUggeat Itself without further com ment, If on the contrary, I -shall consider your present action to have been justified by facts, Of Whioh I have been hitherto altogether unaware. —I am, sir, yours, &c, „*.-_■ ARTEtra Moerow, Malor N.Z V.

[We have no hesitation in accepting full re sponsibility for the paragraph, although we must take exception altogether to the Inference which Major Morrow has placed upon the sen tences quoted in his letter. No reflection was either Implied or intended upon " his oharaoter as a volunteer officer." Major Morrow has been too long conneoted with volunteering in Auokland. for any suspicion ot hiß fitness for the office he holds to be seriously entertained. Our statement was simply one of fact, resting on Major Morrow's own letter to tbo "Herald, complaining of his inability to raise more than a d ozen men out of the entire force. H further explanation of the causes at work Is required, however, our correspondent will find it readily enough in the feeling whioh his action excited among his brother officers, and the resolution of the men to go undor then own officers should the Government requlro their, services. While we believe that Major Morrow was animated by a genuine desire to Bee Auokland repreeented with the other volun teers of the colony, his zeal carried him beyond pro oor bounds. Upon finding that a maj orlty of officers and men were averse to the course which commended Itselflto his sense ot duty, he ought to have rested satisfied with the public efforts he made to alter their de cision. In rushing into print to assail the action of the men whose honour he was in duty bound to proteot, he committed Bn indiscretion, whioh was alike unwarrantable and uncalled for under the circumstances. To our mind the decision of the force was a most sensible one. Major Morrow's letter tends in no woy to remove our former impression that In holding up to publio admiration the twelve men who agreed with him, and in casting reflections upon all the rest of the force, he acted injudici ously and In a manner that will only be too readily taken advantage of by others to heap undeserved opprobrium on our volunteer force. Tbe flrot duty of a volunteer ia falthfalneas to his Qaeen-the next loyalty to his comrades.— Kd. E.B.]
