-V«t of <he party were treated. When ««t saw th-em, I found jNewsham dismoup ted and in charge of two natives. I dn not see my hor.o again till a quarter of ai Cr afterwards whoa it was being 1-c tVwards the village by one of Mahnkii iinnls There was a macintosh strappec £ ™bi saddle, and a tether rope, aftei T was dragged from my horse, I was takec * mile to one side of the track and helc forMbly, having previously been nearlj choked by the way they dragged. I saw that Timi Hamilton was ono of those who held me; there might have been 4or a dozen of them. I was then led a dibtnuce okflmie 20 yards to a flat open space and halted there. Three men now held me, and one stood behind. Tiini ordered me to take my coat off, but I did not do so. When he law that I made no i flbrt to do as lie wished he laid " You can do it with that liana/ Minting to my right band. I still made nc response, and he be s an pulling open my coal tearing off the buttons as he did so. 1 then unbuttoned the remainder or it, being in bodily fear at the time. My coat coutained atthe time a gold watch, which had cost me 40 guineas, a steel watch guard, a rocket-book, a pipe and tobacco, and a railway pats. J«st before they toi'k my coat off they unstrapped and removed a havresack that was across my shoulder*. It contained a prismatic compass, an ane roid barometer, hair and tooth brushe*, and about a pound of tobacco. Ma'juki then ordered lue people who were holding me to t«ko us to the water and cbain us tightly, and to be quick, I did not tee any water then, but I know now that there is a stream there. [The witness then gave Mahuki's own words iv Maori] ihey started with us down the hill, forcing us aloDg towards the water. Mahuki appeared very ex-cited when he spoke, and gesticulated violently. I thought they were goiug to chain us and chuck uj into tho crock. They led us along duAvn the hill, Newsham being jusi in fioot of me, bat I do not know who had charge of him, became they changed two or three times. While they wtre taking us down the hill, the rest of tbe people—in cluding tne women aud children—danced ronndu?, yelling war songs or ngcris— songs of exultation. Mahuki was inciting them to do tins, and once when they stopped he called out, "Why is the ngeri stopped?" He (Uo Baid, " This is the fit st day in w bich I am without thought," meaning that ho had thrown off authority [The witness, at Mi Barl'i request, repeated Mahuki's exac words.] The interpretation of it was that whe gave up all rule and power for that time, leaving the people to do as they chose wiih us. [Mr uarl objected to the witness's intetpreiation of the meaning of the words going down on the depositions ; that should bs left for the interpreter. Mr William-on contended that it was perfectly legitimate, the witness being skilled in the Maori language, and His Woiship held that he was at liberty to state what be un derstood of Mahaki's language.] They then danced some more ngeris, aud j nst then Wetcre Te Kerengi aud his people having caught their worses again, overtook us, and demanded our release from Te Mahuki. A verbal warfare ensued between the two parties, and lasted until we reached the village, when Mabuki told his people to take " tnem " (meaning X^ewsham and myself, to the whare, eating us, and chaining us. as soon as he said that, how ever, he appeared to change his mind, and said, "No; take them into the maiao (an open space in tbe pi used as a meeting place), that the women and daughters and yonthi may be amused." We were accord ingly taken into the marae and kept stand ing there some quarter of an hour or twenty nnnntec The women did not seem much amused. Meanwhile the verbal waifaro con tinned between Mahuki's and Wetere's party —the latter chief stilldemandingour release, and calling upon the Waikato to stand a side to that they might retake, us. We were taken from tho marae to the "whare kal" or cook house, where we were ordered to eit down white our boots were taken off and our feet cbaiued together, our hands teing tied together betiind our backs. Hamilton was with us all the time, and he was ,the one who took off my boots, and helped.to put the chains 00. While our hands were being tied, I heard an angry noise outaids, and they said to one another, "Be quick; be quick" As soon as they had finished, they ran away to the marae, I snppose leaving two or three men jra charge ot us, i.e., New aliam and myself. About two minutes afterwards Te Haire (one of Wetere's natives) was brought to the door of the whare asd thrown in. We were kept con fined and chained in that hut for 41 hours, us near as I can gutss. On the morning Mowing our being tied, they brought some potatoes in a dirty kit. 1 usked liiem to untieonr hands, but they made no answer. Te Hake's mouth was bleeding, and he asked for and got some water, wiih which he washed off the blood. Subsequently I asked for water, and they did not speak, but nodded towards tbe water that Te Uaire had used. Te Haire asked for some wood with which to make a fire, and they brought him four pieces of wood, which lasted till 10 or 11 at sight. Next morning Tohirangi came in and took away from me ten £1 notes, a lialf-sovereigD, and 16t or 17s in silver. Towards the evening and all night we were greatly tronbled with the mosquiios, whicb we could not drive away, as our hands were bound. We asked our captors t < tie onr hands in front of us instead of behind our backs so that we might drive away the tormenting iasects. Jlioy would not do 80, We also suffered from the 'constrained posture in which we were obliged to lie. In ths morning they brought ss ordinary Maori food, but that which they gave us in the afternoon was pigs' iooa, dirty even for Maoris. One Maori took up some potatoes and | kumokumo leaves and placed them beside my head, >nd he did tbe same for Te Hairi. I asked that our hands might be untied in order that we might eat, but no notice was taken of the request. The offering of such food was an insult. I slept upon a floor, that on which I had sat down upon when I entered the hut. Ihere was very little fuel, asd the night was bitterly cold., Te Haeri alter getting a piece of wood, asked for some more, and ■was told to be quiet while the embers of the fire were put ia in the evening. I have reason to believe that the people were Incited to treat ns in this cruel way by Mabnki (1) because of his order to tie us Up, and (2) because, when we were In the marae, he pointed to me aud said that I was his enemy, that had come from Parihaka, and that he wonld bruise me. [Words given in Maori.] I had known him at Parihaka,' having been there when the natives were taken from that place. He was one of Mem. Te Haeri is not here to-day, because he was_ not sufficiently recovered mm the injuries he received both PMr to hia lodgment in the whare fata tig, and during the time he Jfas confined there. I know that he is ill. Uutbe > afternoon of the second day Te "ahoki came near the whare wherein we *He confined, and addressing the people jw> were keeping guard over us, said,'' Be ™W, be. brave, be stout-hearted, O ye *Men people, The laws of Jehovah have J°t yet been completed (or fulfilled) which "MntfromHeavcn." Ithoughtat thetime ™rt the law which remained to be fulfilled Was that ■we should be saciiflced. I don't ■rove that now. They immediately opened the door, which wo,s chained,, took fi fipp out of my mouth (firßt telling me g give it to them); they snatched Te toe/is pipe out of Mb mo,utb. \wthout fcyng anything to him ; and they W tfewsham's P'pe from where if was jyiDg beside them, as well as his knife and Mbacco. These pipes had been taken back j° is after they had been temoved in the winstance, the man who gave them to us ™ag the one who.brought Te Maeri the too. We did not sen him agaia, and { have «aaoa to bslieve that be was put in prison j™ his kindness. About 8 o'clock on the JjoiMnjt'pf the 22nd we were rescued by ttie under the leadership of iwo, and by Te Kooti and his people. m received back most of tbe things that rßll been taken from us, but not all. J Jo' bacK toy horse, saddle and jnaie, macintosh and watch, the Ngati ffl&niapoto having recovered them for |t . I think it was Te Kerenga .■™obande.d them back to me. During the waoie period of my captivity I was under SE? guard of sentries. I identify Pu, Hono Wiikato, Te Waiu, Ngatinahira, Kite, Te WJunotabi, Hori Hohepa, Taniora, ;™ahi, Tarua, Hoihipa Tukuteroa, Nga «aarau, Hori Turiroa, Toroa, Hone, ..° ta>&"d I 3\vear that they were con }*™eain my detention in the hut, and I tt™ ißwear that Tohirangi direcetd wem fa some way or another.

I cannot speak Maori, bul from the way in which Mahnki spoke, 1 should judge him to bo the leader, Hamil t n was the man who caught me by the leg and tried to pull me off my horse. f looked round and saw Mr Hursihouae wiih half-adozen round him. My coat and wautcoat were taken off me, aud I was removed to the whare, aud confined there with Mr Hurathouse, in the same way as he was confined.

BAY OF ISLANDS COAL COMPANY.

THE half-yearly meeting of the above Com pany was held to-day, Mr J. C. Firth pre^ siding.

The report for the half-year ending 31at December, 1882, waspresented asfollows: — Iv laying before the shareholders tbe usual half-yearly report and statement of accounts, the directors have to report that the sules for coal lor the half-year ended above, have been 18,352 tons; the action of tho fault roferred lo in last report haviDg been still ft-lt and tho area of available coal thereby reduced. Continued elforts have been put forth to open up tho upper portion of the workings, where tbe Beam was again cnt, and these the directors expect will bo still ftuthcr developed, The Diamond Drill has, since last report, completed No 2 JLSoro Hole, and has partially put down >o. 3 Dole. In No. 2 Hole two small seams were proved, but being within the region of the fault no winning operations have been undertaken in tbis direction, iho lease of a large block of land (with a right to purchase), lyiDg towards the dip of the seam, has been acquired, and steps will at once be taken to prove the same by boring. Should it be found that the seam of coal extends over tbia block, tne value of the company* pro perty will bo greatly enhanced thereby. The statement of accouuti is presented herewith. In view of further probable ex plorations being necessary before an efficient and regular output is secured, the directors do not recommend the payment of any dividend from the balanco at credit of profit and loss account, and propose that the whole sum should be carried forward. —For tho directors, J.
