THE MAORI KING.

HIS ARRIVAL AT ORaKEI.

KlHa Tawiiiao, accompanied by his suite, arrived by train from tho Waikato at Green Lane Station at 4.20 yesterday afternoon. Amongst those present to receive him were His Worship the Mayor; Mr W. Swanson, M.H.R.* Messrs C. O. Davis, T. Jtf. Hill, J. Ci Young, Keesing, Burtt, Dufaur, Lodge, Vickers, and Dr. Purchas. The King was accompanied by the Government Native Agent, Major Mair, and the follow ing natives: —His wife.sister.and three sons, Tamaii Ngapora Manuhiri, Wahanui, Tc Wiwini, To Honiara, Te Tuhi, Honana, Aihcpeue, Pikia, Te Httki, Whitiora, Tuata, and Ttitatn. The Maori potentate was attired in dark tweed coat and waistcoat and black trousers, while a white bclltopper adorned with a band of crape and some huia feathers completed his outfit, Major Mairbaving introduced Tawhiao to Mr Clark he shook hands with the other gentlemen on tho platform. Conveyances being in wait ing, the regal party started for Orakei amidst loud cheers. During the drive the natives frequently gave vent to their astonishment at the changes that had taken place in the country about Auckland. Arrived at the hill overlooking 'lullacre's picturesque kainga the conveyances drew up, and the party proceeded towards the Orakei on toot, Tuhaere's natives were drawn up on the confiucs of the village, with two men of prominence, Te Hera and Hemara, the latter a Mahuranei native, standing in front to perform the offices of reception committee. The] Orakei natives "haere maied " lustily. Amongst other demon strative evidences of welcome was a great waving of shawls and other garments, and the discharge of a volley of musketry. When the noisy congratulations had sub sided somewhat, Tawhiao motioned his party to be seated; and advancing between the two bodies of natives signified that the tm»i should commence. During the "weeping match" the King remained standing and with head covered, while his "subjects" crouched in attitudes of the greatest despair. The tangi lasted about 20 minutes, after which Tawhiao walked over to, and took his place in front of Paora Tuhaere. Home minutes elapsed, and the King walked back and sat down amongst his people, when the formal speech-making took place. Te Hera, who officiated as principal spokesman for the Orakei natives, said a few words of wel come, referring to the fact that all the old people of the settlement were dead, con cluding by chanting a song in honour of the visitors,

At tho request of Patara Te Tnhi, To Hemara also spoke. Tuata having briefly replied for tho King and his party, it was announced that the speaking was over for the day. The visitors were then regaled on a sumptuous repast of dried shark, trash Bchnapper, beef, potatoes, and other do. scriptions of food dear to the aboriginal palate.

Reception Committee.

The adjourned meeting ot the Tawbiao Reception Committee was held at the Chamber of Commerce to-day, His Worship the Mayor presiding. The offer oi tho Artillery Band to play at the reception and at the dinner for £10 was accepted. Messrs Dunningham and Kin", of the Governor Browne Hotel, offered to billet the natives at 6s per head per diem. It was decided to accept the offer. A letter was read from tho Devonport ferry Company offering to provide a steamer free of cost to convey Tawhiao and suite from Orakci to Auckland from three to five o'clock on I hurs day afternoon. The question of arranging for the steamer was finally left in the hands of Mr J. Lamb. Some discussion took place regarding the torchlight procession and pyrotechnic display, it being stated that the cost would be at least £40. Tho Mayor intimated that the natives wanted to be billeted in the same hotel. The names of Messrs J. C. Firth, W. J. Hurst, and J. M. Shera were added to the committee. Mr Dallen's tender for the dinner at 6s per head was accepted. It was decided that the price of the tickets to the dinner be 10s Oil, and that gentlemen be admitted to the gallery and orchestra at ss; lads, 2s 6d. A communication was received from the com mittee of thejrailway employe's' picnic, invit ing Tawhiao to attend that gathering. The committee returned thanks for the invita tion, which would be accepted if their guests were agreeable. After some further uuim portapt business had been transacted, the meeting adjourned till to-morrow.

Tawhiao at Orakei-A Council To-Day.

(PKK CAUKIER PIGEON.)

ORAKEI, 1 p.m,

Your reporter visited Orakei early this morning, and found the Maori King (Tawhiao), Honana, Te Maiho, To Tutai, and Paul Tuhaere assembled in the house of tho latter, and holding a Cabinet Coun cil to discuss their future movements. Your special had the honor of shaking hands with the Maori King, whose bearing was most corteons and friendly, Towhiao was at tired in dishabille, in a white shirt and a white sheet wound round his royal person, and his head surmounted by a white bell topper decorated with huia feathers. He was barefooted. He also shook hands with a lady wno was present. One of the King's wives was also intro duced, she was tastefully dressed in the latest fashion. We were regaled with raspberry, sherry, and otber refreshment. The chiefs appeared to be anxious to know what was the feeling among the townspeople as to the objects of their visit, and were assured that the visit was regarded as the final burying of the hatchet between the two races, and the prelude to future amicable relations. Uonana said : "The sun of peace is shining, and the land and sea are at peace. We shall all live as one people." Your reporter was then conducted by Tv Tawhiao, tho heir apparent, to a new house, a short distance from Paul's resi dence, where most of the Waikato chiefs were reposing on mat*, in their blankets. A pile of potatoes, kumaiau, cooked meat, and bread, lay in the centre of the whare. Here I was introduced to the, famous fighting chief, \Yi Komiti, or Whitiora. The old warrior is specially got up for this visit, having shaved off bis whiskers and got his noble countenance perfectly' tattooed. Old Manuhiri^lay in a corner near the dopr, but rose up and shook hands. A quantity of cooked food was placed before your special, who ate spar ingly of some of the kumaras. It appeared from the conversation that the natives attach more importance to the meeting with the Ngapuhi tribes at bewito, Kaipara, than to the intended reception in Auck land. In reply to a question one of the chiefs said that there were altogether 51 in tho party, all chiefs. Te Wahanui sat outside with some of the leading cniefs of his hapu. The natives are anxious to know whether Mr Btyce or Mr Rolleston is coming np from Welling ton. Wabanni has brought his little grandson down, with some idea of placing him in one of the schools. _ There appears to be no intention of visit ing Mhngere at present. Amongst the visitors hero this morning are Mr Bardington, Captain Anderson, and two officers of the Wanaka, who came over from Manukau to get a glimpse of the King. The Naval Training School boys also visited the settlement and were sup plied with food. Tawhiao's two sons are well dressed, and, except in close scrutiny, would be taken for Europeans. Tv Tawhiao has iuet informed me that the reception In Auckland will take place to-morrow. There appears to be a slight tiff between Wahanui and the Waikato party. Kewi, Tv Potahi, and other leading Ngatimania poto chiefs are not likely to come down. Te Ngakau is also absent, and there is a atrong current amongst the Wahanui party that Te Ngakau does not quite approve of the present proceedings, and would hare preferred that tho meeting between Wai kato and Ngapuhi should take place at Hiknrangi or Te Kopua. I am, however, convinced, from all I can gather from the chief, that they are more anxious than they care to show that the isolation in which they have been

living should come to an end. Even Waha nui in the course oi conversatian expressed a wish that the relations existing before the war should be resumed, but he and others expressed the strongest condemnation of the action of Mr Bryce in destroying the culti vations at Parihaka. I'bey were also anxious to learn what wonld be the proba ble fatfc of Te "Whiti, Titokowaru, and Hiroki, but expressed no sympathy with the last, t There Will be no korero this afternoon. The natives appear to be spending their time in eating and sleeping. Major Mair is not here, but is expected back this ovening. . Some of the chiefs are anxious to know where they are to sleep when they get to Auckland, and were informed that an in iluential committee, containing all .the wisdom of Auckland, were making every possible preparation for their comfort and enjoyment. I think a gathering of all the school children would greatly impress the visitors, as many of them expressed some surprise at the large number of Europeans, whom they saw on their way from WaikatO to Eller slic, no doubt the spectacle of thousands in Auckland \vill produce a salutary effect on their minds, and further convince them of the utter hopelessness of resistance to civilisation. There is nothing further worth reporting.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

A special meeting of the Chamber of Commerce was held this afternoon in the office, Insurance Buildings. Present— Messrs C. C. McMillan (chairman), L. D, Mathan, J. Lamb, F. Larkins, Oppen heimer, Milne, Heather, Upton, Donald, T. Henderson, jnn., J. Phillipps, Lodder, H. B. Morton, Take, A. Stewart, Hull, Dargaville, M. Clark, Aickin, J. M. Clark, Harper, Geo. Fraser, Bennett, and liatger. The Chairman explained that the busi ness which the Chamber bad been sum moned to consider was a project which the P. and O. Co. had of inaugurating steam communication between New Zealand and Australia. All that was wanted was an expression of opinion, and if they were favourable it might help on the realisation of the proposal. It had bectt'hoped when the Union Company was established, or rather when it placed boats on the Austra lian trade, that it would prove itself a truly colonial concern, but it had since then shewn itself to be one of a strictly pro vincial character, whose chief object \. as to centralise trade at Dunedin. By disregard ing the requirements of other ports dis satisfaction had been engendered from Lyttelton northwards, and there did not seem to bo any immediate promise of relief. Tho freight charges were unequal, for, at present, the charges for carrying cargo between Dunedin to Taranaki were no hl"hcr than from Auckland to Taranaki, 1 while a more serious iuequality was disclosed by the fact that while four steamers lett ' the Bluff every month, and|sometimes two extraones aa well for Australia, while Auck land was made dependent upon one boat (the Hero), which ran onlyjonce in three weeks. The P. and O.JCo. had shewn a dis position to enter the trade, and with the

| object of encouraging the project he begged to move—" That this Chamber has heard with satisfaction the probability of the Peninsular and Orient Steamship Com pany commencing a steam service between Sydney and New Zealand) connecting with an English line, cordially sup. port the movement, and pledge themselves to do all ia their power to support theservice.'' The gentleman also complained of the delay which took place in the conveyance hither of the goods brought by the Orient, Company's steamers. ! Mr Lamb seconded the resolution pro forma, and in doing so took occasion to complain of the manner in which cargo was discharged at this port. Mr Heather said that he was indisposed to pledge n msclf to support a P. and O. Company's line, The Union Company had reduced the freight charges to, and had im proved tho means of communication jwi h Australia, Mr L> I>. Nathan and Mr Harper ex pressed themselves to a similar effect; Thb Union Company was a New Zealand don cern, and it had placed jiitu and commo dious steamers Iti the trade.

Mr Henderson (local agent of the tjmon Company) explained that the delays which had tdken place in connection with the Australian service, of the Union Co. had been caUsed by Sydney, being declared ah infected port. At present the trade1 wris not sufficiently large enough between Sydney and Auckland to justify the trips being hiade at shorter intervals, but at any rate steps were now being taken to achieve that vory object. A number df new steamers had been ordered from Home, and on their arrival a weekly service would be initiated.

Mr j, M, Clark supported the resolution. The Union Company, although nominally a New Zealand, was to a considerable extent a foreign company. It was peculiarly, how ever a Dunedin concern, and by the manner in which it was worked the directors showed that they considered the interests of that city paramount. Their object was not so much to piy dividends as to foster the Duiiedin trade, and that fact was con clusively shewn by the way in which the Canterbury coasting trade was being centred in the metropolis of Otago in stead of at its natural centre and dejjQt, Lyttelton. Competition at any rate was an advantage, and besides it would be de sirable to give the Pi and O. Co the pre; ference in orders for England and Australia as they would then be responsible for the prompt and careful carriage of goods through eVery stage of the journey; friJrh point of departure to destination. After soma discttssion the resolution was put and oarried.nem con. A NEW COMPANY. Xhe following letter was then read :— "Karangahapelioad, Auckland, Jannary 14th, 1882, C, C> McMillan, Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce. Dear Sir,— The Auckland Chamber of Commerce having been convened for Tuesday to dis cuss the subject of a direct steam service to JNew Zealand, the opportunity is thus afforded to submit for the information of the Chamber, in pursuance of such object, a brief outline of an intended service, which promises to be complete and in operation at the end or the present year of 1882. The Tehuantepec Inter-Ocean Railroad Company, duly incorporated in the United States of Mexico, and also in the United States of America) commenced operations in 1879> and, when complete, Will afford, by an almost undeviating line between Queenstown and Auckland (trans shipping across the Mexican Isthmus) the shortest possible mileage for New Zealand to adopt, A harbour for iirst-nlass ships is now built at the month of the River Gont zecoalcos, in the Gulf of Mexico, and, from thence, the railway is finished past the town of Tehuantepec, on the Pacific tide, towards the harbour being now adopted near Salina Cruz, in the Bay of Chipequft] The harbours (containing lights of the first class), the railway and telegraph lines are being constructed by and under the con* trol of the Company, together with the Ocean lines of steamships. The Ocean lines from Qaeenstown, New York, and New Orleans will converge at Gontzccoal cos, and passengers and cargoes be conveyed across the isthmus, and correspond with the Pacific lines to £ uckland and Sydney j also to San Francisco and Yokohama; thus saving upwards of 2,000 miles naviga tion south-about by way of Panama, The line estimated by the Company between. Queenstown and Sydncv will permit the northern port of call at New Zealand to be within one month's communication with Home, liy a reference to this route on the ;hart, it will be teen that direct lines can be maintained with shortest mileage, and through the smoothest regions of both hemi spheres. It will also be appurcnt that the Auckland port-of-call by the Tehuantepec main line can be availed of by the present steam services of New Zealand to distribute traffic to and from the adjacent islands of the Pacific. By the Mexican grant to the Company you will perceive that no duties will be levied upon through merchandise and passengers. — I am, &c, H. M. Jekvis. P.S.—Tho in ducement for large capitalists to embark in this cnterpriae is the saving of distance by way of Panama through the objectionable navigation of the Caribbean Sea. The Hue will also intercept, or afford interocean rail way correspondence with the great Mexican and tnitcd States Eastern railways of America, now in course of construction. — H.M.J."

Mr Oppenheimer pointed out that other companies besides tho P. and O. Company, and notably the Messagcrics Muritirnes of France, were likely to enter the New Zealand and Australian trade,

Mr Morton, while supporting the resolu tion, regretted that the name of the Union Company had been dragged into the dis cussion, inasmuch as it had served us well. Mr Nathan blamed our imperfect shed accommodation, rather than the Union Co. for the delays and inconveniences connected with the transport and debarkation of cargo.

Mr Donald complained of the difficulties placed in the way of shippers of cargo by the Union Co., and also referred to the shortness of time allowed for loading at this port. Mr Aickin also spoke ia support of the motion.

On the motion of Mr J. M. Clark it was resolved that Mr Jervis should be thanked for his letter.

Fumigation of Mails,

Mr J. tiamb moved, " That the Govern ment be requested to erect a proper build ing for the fumigation of mails when re quired at a convenient spot away from the city." The arrangements fortfumigating so far had been imperfect, and had caused mostjvexaticus delays. Mr L. D. Nathan considered the blame in the matter was chargeable to the Harbour Board, aa the Government had not been able to get a site. Mr Aickin said that the Government had applied for a site, and that the Board had not an available one to offer.

Mr J. M. Clark explained that tho Local Board of Health bad suggested to the Government th.it a fumigation station should be erected on piles near the Bean Rock Lighthouse. The motion was then put and carried. THE BKINDISI MAILS.

The Chairman drew attention to tbo (ardy way in which letters via Brindisi were forwarded and delivered in this colony. They were invariably sent round by way of the Bluff.

It was agreed that the Chamber should represent the matter to the Government.

RAILWAY CHARGES,

Mr J. Lamb moved, " That when altera tions are made in the railway rates, intimation of the same be forwarded to the Chambers of Commerce throughout the Co'ony, and a copy of the altered charges tent to each Chamber." The motion was seconded and cairied, BAILWAY SPEBD. Mr Nathan complained of the slow rale of speed at which the Waikato trains travelled. He thought some action should be taken in the matter. Mr Clark thought it UDdeslrable to have the rate of speed increased, as that would tend to increase the charges also. The real grievance was the bad traffic management, a noticeable exhibition of which had been given during the recent holiday season, 1 Mr Larkins and Mr Waymouth attributed this to to the fact of their being only a single line of rai). Eventually on Mr Waymouth's motion it was agreed that, "This Chamber urges on the Government the necessity of having two lines of rails as far as Penrose."—The motion was carried, This concluded the business.
