Pekhaps no event in Maori history, from which groat result! were expected, has excitodsolittiepublic interest a3 the present visit ot. the Native Minuter to Tawhiao. People have become so thoroughly wearied f with great Maori Koreros that promised a revolution, and on^ed in twnddle !: imiMMiifiii ; ' mms gt v gullibility :

have b:en exhausted. It may 1 happen, therefore, that tho crowning / ncbievement of Maori diplomacy will como just when people least expect it, Those who are most intimate with Maori affairs, however, declare that no phenomenal penius is requisite now to attain every thing the colonists can reasonably desire in the opening of the long-o!oacd toiritory between Alexandra and Taranaki; that already the desire for fiee inter-com municatipn with the colonists is bo strong ■among the landowners ot the Kiogite party, that only channels for its easy flow are necessary to make tho current run steadily in the direction of peace and progress j and that unless Mr Brycc dots something to dam back the waters, their issue, in full steady

volume, is a cortainty, The_ things still wanted to remove the remaining obstacles

to free intercourse, tailways, telegraphs, roads and settlement, also seem to be pretty well agreed upon, There isiirstof all a suitable provision for Tawbiao and the landless Waikatos j and next, the a«sur ance to the natives of some system of leas iDg under conditions that will prevent one or a few owners from alienating their interests in lauds, unknown to the rest of the owners of a block. We presume that Mr Bryco had these objects iv view last session when he brought down the hll extending the tirno duriug which reserves of land may bo made under " The Wuikato Confiscated Lands .Act, ISSO," and when hn fought to the end his "Native Reserves Act." By the former measure he is empowered to set aside laud for the occupation of na'ives who sull'crcd through confiscation, and by the latter he can offer tho natives about as good a system of management as any system by a Government can bp. If we interpret tho Native Minister's Parliamentary preparations correctly, these two Acts will form the basis of bis negotia tions with Tawhiao, 'J hero is, however, within the covers of these Acts a very wido range, and we shall bo curious to know to what extent Mr Bryco proposes to use their powers. It seems not improbable, judging from tlio Native Minister's reputation, that be would consider it tho triumph of genius if he could secure Tawhiao's assent to the immediate survey of the railway liae for half the price that was offered by Sir Donald McLean aud Sir George Grey. In all likelihood be may now be able to do that, for Tawhiao has re pented his refusal of the terms of former Native Ministers, literally in sackcloth and asbes, and meets Mr Bryco with a moro chastened spirit, and fewer anti-European prejudices tlian he ever met any of his pre decessois witb. Still the business is one of too gisautic importance to the whole North Island for the negotiations to be approached in the huckstering spirit that distinguished Mr Bryce's bargain with the City Council for the o'd a rmonry and bis transaction with the Thames Volunteers. Hia over-ridden hobby-horse, " Firmness," which oven admirers admit lapses occasionally into boorish obstinacy, might ba put out to grass for a short season. Our special cor respondent to-day telegraphs hopefully on tbis subject, when he assures us that Mr Brjce was in such a melting mood yesterday that he shook hands with a con siderable number of natives without wincing, Though Me Bryce msy have little interest in knowing what public feel ing happens to be on tbo subject of the pending negotiations, it is nevertheless just as well to place on record tlio current belief that there is now no real difficulty to prevent tho immediate commencement of the survey upon which the construction of the North Island Trunk Railway depends, and that if Mr Bryce fails in carrying it out, the reason will not be because the feat was impossible, but because it was ap proached in the wrong way.

The quoollon of tho f'equent absences of city school teachers from duty, on tho pleisof 'ill-healtb,' 'sickheadaches,' 'colds,' and "indisposition,'' came up for considera tion at fhe meeting of the Board of Kdiica tion yesterday afternoon, npon motions (previously published) of which Messrs GolHie and Laishley had rcjpcc tivply given notice. They did not actually conflict, and so after somo discussion they were both withdrawn in favour of the followiug resolution,which is a blending of the spirit aud intention of both, viz. :—" That, for the periods of absence of teachers, pay be stopped, unlcsi a medical certificate bo produced of serious indisposition ; and that a record be kept of such absent; s with a view to replacing those teachers, whose health will cot per mit themt o perform their duties, by o'.hers as oppottunity oflers." In the courso of some remarks which he made npon the sub ject, Mr Laishley claimed that phytical enervation presupposed, and was associated with mental ilaccidity, and that, conse quently, physically weak teachers should not be employed by the Board, The reso lution was passed,

THE V.R.C. DERBY.

Although In point of pnbtlo interest the V.K.O. Derby does not bold a position In the oolonlei rolatlra to that ei-joyod by tho Kig ish Derby in Great Britain, it is to Australasians ot importanoA only aeoond to the Melbourne Cup. The great three-year-ild raon takes place on the Fleming ton oourae to-day, and will probably bo witnessed by thousands or porsonr. The soeeptanoes. eighteen in number, are published In another portion ot this lsuuo, and, tntween such horsoi as Navigator, Begenhos, Standard Bearer, Gnoeswork. Frying Pan. and Boolka. there should be a most exclttog race.

MR BRYCE'S VISIT TO WAIKATO.

Mr Bryce's Reception.

(BY TELEGRAPH.— SPECIAL CORRES-

PONDENT,)

ALEXANDRA, this day. Tiibke were'not more than a dozen people at the train on its arrival, and when we drove into Alexandra there wa<3 scarce a sonl to be seen in the ttreet, a few people only being collected on ttic verandah of Finch's Hotel. There were a few Maoris in the Uwnsbip, congrfgated above Mr J. D. Hill's store, and these were all the signs if welcome or of signification that the hist act in the Maoii drama was to be played, but those who looked on could not help thinking that comedy had succeeded the tragic part of Maori history. Mr Brycc, with hU inter pteters, Messrs Butler aud Wilkinson, ac companied by Mr Mosi, went over to Gas coignc's to meet Tuwhiao, whoro the Kirjc; said, "At last I have seen you, and I wel come you to Whatiwhatihoc to meet the children, the women, and the old people,'' Some other slipshod expressions followed, when it was arranged that Mr Bryco should go over in tho morning. Mr Bryce wanted 'I'awbiao to come over early in the morning and accompany him over, tho pair driving over the bridge together, but it being Maori etiquette tur the langala whemia to meet the visitor* on his own soil, of course this proposal could not be accepted. 'J'awbiao gave Mr Bryce two kiwi niata and departed, Taus tho iint part of tho performance terminated, Comment on the Interview. Tawhiao had arranged in the morning that he should do no more than utter a few words, telling Mr Hill and others so. All this was a common-placo every day occurrence, but there were two things connected with this comparatively unimportant interview that deserve notice. One was patent to everyone-only Tawhiao and bis tail were presented—none of the landowners or Maniapoto, They are all holding very suspiciously aloof, but whether they are doing so from the direc tions of Tawbiao, as some assert, or keep ing to themselves until they hear what Mr Bryce has to «ay, I don't know. They say themselves they have no need to run after anyone. They havo all they want. Tawhiao has not. The other matter worth notice waa that even at this day powerful Maori influence was exerted to prevent the meeting of Tawhiao and Mr Bryce taking place. It was represented to him that being a King he should again stand on his dignity and allow Mr Bryce to come and see him. One could not help noticing the vwt difference between the.tnceting now and that atJKopua in 1879. Then scveial thousauds people were present, Tawhiao tbon had a following oi hundreds of men—many of them armid. To-d«y he ua* fallen so low that there was none to do him reverence, and he had only his own immediate friends and rclationo to follow in bis wake. Then he refused generous offers; to day he teems almost in want. An impression has gone abroad that Mr Brycc want; the Waikato tribe to be provided for by the Manlapoto in land, and hence the land owners fctund aloof. The lust time 1 was here every person asked me when Mr Bryco waa coming up. Now every person one meets ask* mo what Mr Bryce is going to do or to say. There has been no mys tery man lika unto this one, He disbes bis charms and philtres in secret, and allows no one to look at his prescriptions. The opinion v that something should be aiven to Tawhiao, but Mr Bryco it evidently in a conciliatory mood, as he shook hands with over a fcore of natives one after ano ther, without wincing -a thing he never did in hU life, I suppose, before. What will happen will be this, the natives tell me : They will hear what Mr Bryce has to say and think over it carefully. If he odors some feasible plan tor Bottling tho land they will be Rlad; if not, they will follow tho ordinary coarse. But all hinges on the Tawhiao question. What will be dono for. Tawhiao ? And Tawhiao now stand* nearly alone. Tho natives are opposed to companies, aud this new com pany is not rogarded with favour by land owners.

Te JVgaknu Idle mo that Mr Shoohaa is cowing hero to-morrow, Dr, Suller and othcra boiug also expected.

The natives are very much amused at the nmiionary character of the Cambridge Native Land Oourt—Mair, Williams, Lowrie, Duller and Grace—all of inieslonary oxtruction, -^plications are to be mnde by private surveyors bore to survey lands, but tho Government will object, I am told, as they havo done in thc^aseof the Mokau lca«o.

There is a slight subsidence on the other side of the new bridge which should bo attended to at onco.

Tawhiao ban tuiucd over a now leaf, the publicans say to their sorrow, oschewing even tho appearance of evil.

The«o prospectuses of tho Fnplißh Maori Land Company havo betn tcattered all ovor tho place. I was told to-day that Manga received a loug letter with his prospectus, setting forth the merits of tho ecbeme, sigocd by Mr .Larkworthy. How true, of course, the statement if, I cannot say, but it comes from a reputable source.

To-day's Meeting.

ALEXANDRA, noon,

Mr Brycc has ordored flour and su«ar, tea, biacuitp, and beef as a present for tho King. Un natives asking how it was that no gifts weio given to Sir George Grey or Mr Sheehau at Kopua when Mr iJryce got a present from Tawhiao of mats, adorned with kiwi, feathers, 1 was told that tho nativus now meant pcacs, and tint then they 'irereundecided whatto do. There are not more than 500 natives here, and they are divided ■ into two camps—the Waikatos being by themselrcs and the Maaiapotofi by themselves—on a rising •pot selected for its dryness as a ground fo squatting on. The natives assembled at II o clock, but Mr Bryce did not come till 11, About a quarter to that hour, Tawhiao stood up, and said that Bryce was coming there that day to soe the pesple, but tha no talking as to business would take place, After they had seen and known one another, then thoy would fix a day when talking should commence. This was only a friendly mooting of a preliminary character, ahe Interview, Mr Bryce, on arrival, went end shook hands witk Tawhiao, and sat down before him, silence being observed for »ome time, Tawhiao then went back and welcomed them, saying: "It is good to como and see us ail. This was a day for seeing ono another. We will pick out a good day to settlo business. We want a warm day, so that our blankets can be thrown oIF. He had a word to aiy about the Land Conrt, but it would bo spoken at another time." To Vfhooro sat by hi 3 (ide, prompting him. Mr Bryee rose and eaid : ' I greet you :u you have greeted mo, for all our peoplq. I reciproeato your good Avishes. Let this be a day of greetUg—a day of good-will. Let us not in future look back on tbis with rOßret." He tktn «aid that he was ready to speak of other ma'tcrs besides greeting. Two ways there were >vf speak iog—one optn, the other keeping something back. If this were a day of greeting, then he should let it be jo, that when the time came to speak of tribal buiiness he would rpeak plain, as he always did, and he hoped Tawhiao would also speak plainly. If he did so, all tbo clouds would disappear. He stood there as the friend of Tawh:ao, if he would accept him as soch. With his help he could do much—without it he could do littlo. He was prepared to bs his friend. Tawhiao said, in reply: "Listen; I'll speak straightly, and you mint do the same. You have been dead and now you are a'ivc." He then came out and sat down beside Mr B yce, and the people then beg;n to disperse. Mr Bryce went over and shook hands with Wahanui, and the public business of Iho day was thus over in half, an-hour. Railway Pass for Life. This Afternoon. Liter in the day Mr Bryce presenlod Tawhiao with a gold railway pass for the whole of tbe New Zealand Ka'lways far lifo or, as he said, " So loog as you live," Tawhiao simply replied that he would take it. The pats has two fern leaves on one side and "Free Railway Pass," and on th« >ther the word " Tawbiao." The presenta ion took place a little after one o'clock, and Mr Brycc le'umcd to tho Eeltlemcnt bofore two;. he and Tawhiao seems to gtt along very well together.
