THE WHANGAREI NATIVE DIFFICULTY.

Settled For £20,

TilK Hous. J. Bryee .-mil YT, llolleston relumed last evening, by the Government steamer Stella, from a visit, to the North, tiiu immediate p)it of dopaituro being Whangjrei. Tho two Ministers met by arrangement ia that district tor (he purpose of enquiring into tho cause of the native disturbance ia Decem ber last, and which at one t; me thientencd to cntminntc in bloodshed. By the recalci trant natives thcivselvcs their grievancel? were referred to a Maori cormnitcce at fie Bay of Islands, bat *!ic Ministers, without uny reference to this au'hority, tr ok thj j investigation juto their owa hand-. M?| Bryca took the trouble on Snndav ri v'lt the scene of :1. tho trouble, nad inf'ua* d , t-ht he would bo prepared lo go •■ to fie matter on t'.io following day. »n j Monday ace rdingly, ho wr.s interviewed l>y the old chief Tautau (who, although clrcf i of the bapu which owns the hnd is not mtei • | csted io it) and by the ringleader ia tbo disturbances—viz., a man who eDJoys tho sobriquet of "Dick the Devil." Tho n-< tive3 setrned to have been thrown into a state of consternation by tho Ministei^al visit, evidently iegarding.it as a prelude to some form of summaiy chastisement, and therefore they were both submis. sive and peaceably disfoscd; the re doubtable Dick, of internal notoiiety, being especially mild and respectful, j Mr Brjcefouud the-whole difficulty to bo ! contained within a nutshell. It appeared that the natives owned two paddocks on the line ot the proposed road from Whan garei to Maunu, which Mr Simpson was (mploycd to autvey. One of them was partially fouced, but the feuce of the other ! Had iallen into such a conipleto state of disrepair that only tho semblance of a fence remained. It seemed that the Surveyor, acting upon the belief that it was optional with him either to cany the road through the fairly fenced paddock, or to tkirt the corner of it, resolved upon tbe former course, and hence ths tronblo, tho real intention being that the road should bo diverled so as to pass the corner of tho paddock. The natives at once opposed the ppi?a»e of the road through their paddock, no com pensation .being promised for interference with fences, etc., and out of th's opposition tho disturbance arose. Mr Bryce a:-certrined that, by ,the exercise ot a little tict oq the part .of the Europeans n'.l this unpleasant ness might have been avoided, and tho consent of the natives obta'uc d by an ex penditurc of about £10. Be saw that the latter had some show of right in their demands, and, therefore, afcer a full consideration of all the fait?, he olFered cither to pay £20 f u r fancioc; both sides of the road through the paduock, or else to divert the road to the corner of the pad dock, in which case no fencina wiU be x< quired. The natives have not jet sig nilied which alternative they will accept, but no doubt ia tnteitaiucd as to their iu tention to make a choice, They are anxions for a settlement and wi" make their election in a few days. Mr Bryce deserves great credit for his satis factory arrangement of what, at one time, threat ,ned to be a troubl<soaie dirlicu'.ty,

The residents of the Mount Eden district are loudly complaining of the conduct o£the authorities ii allowing bullocks tobeduven along the load at all hours.

Europeans are invited to attend the native race meeting (under Mr Biyce's patronage) which takes place on 6fch March next at Te Kopua. As natives arc notoriously fond of all spotts, and horse racing in particular, au excellent day's sport may be confidently expected, -s the best horses will be sure to win. They have' drawn out the following programme, but as yet cannot fill in the amount to be run for. A Hurdle liace, one and a-half miles, over 8 flights of hurdles, 31 1 Gin. high; Maiden Plate, one and a-half miles, for hordes that have never won over £3; the Eopua Handicap, distance, two miles ; Pony hace, distance, one mile, for ponies 14 hands and under; the Hauwai Cup, distance, one and a-quarter miles ; Conso lation Kace, one mile.

A largo Maori tangi wr <j held at Cam bridge on Saturday last at the Maoii camp adjoining the residence of Mr Moon, in connection with the death of Topaerata, a very old and Important chief of what was a very shoit time ago the king section of the native people. A large number of visitors arrived from the various settlements to fjoin in the tangi which was characteiised by large distri butions of kai and waipero. The voice of Ihe wailing did not cease until a late hour on Saturday night, when the threatening as pect of the weather led to the meeting breaking up. Topaerata died at his settle ment at Whakamara, and as tbe people could not go up to attend the funeral on ac count of the Land Court, the tangi was held at Cambridge,

A largely attended meeting of residents was held last evening in the Avondale pnblic hall, Mr Bollard presiding, to con sider the advisability of joining with the residents of Mount Albert in the establish ment oi an omnibus c.mpany, in order to secure better accommodation than at present. After some discussion, it was unanimously agreed, on the motion of Mr Buchanan, seconded by Mr Garrett, "That w the opinion of this * meeting it is desirable to join the residents of Mount Albert ia forming a local company for the purpose 'of pro viding more frequent 'bni accommodation than at present for the inhabitants of Monnt Albert, Avondale, and Point Chevalier." It was also agreed, on Mr tilttoa's motion, that Messrs Bollard, Dakin, Garrett, Oittos. and Buchanan, be a committee to asceitain tbe amount of snppoit likely to be given, and all other necessary information, and to co-operate generally with a committee elected by the residents of Mount Albert for a similar par pose.

GIFTS. A REMINISCENCE OF the past tlireo years marks rapid strides in the City of Auckland; a complete revolution has been made in certain well-known branches of trade-in Stationery, Clocks, Watches, Jewel lery, and Fancy Goods. Tho opening of the London Arcade marked a favourable era for tho residents of Auckland and ita neighbourhood, greater facilities then being offerod for obtain ing at one and tho same place a selection from the most varied stock in unison with tho trado motto, '• S.P. & Q.R." THREE YEARS experience have shown by demonstration that a nimble Cd. is better than a slow Is., and that, notwithstanding tho close imitation and keen competition to which we have boen subjected, cur business was never more successful than at the present, tho public readily discriminating between tho plan adopted at tho Arcade of marking the goods at the same universal low price, and. the course now being adopted by somo of our competitors—marking a few lines 50 per cent, below tho prices at which they have for years supplied tho same goods to the Auok land public. During our three years RESIDENCE IN . the City our prices have remained tho same wo commenced at in High-street, and though in tho plan we have pursued — viz., supplying our goods upon a lower tariff of profits than hitherto known in Auckland, we have in c nrred the displeasure of a few of onr neighbours, wo are yet content to know we have the approba' tion of the majority of our appreciating tizens, and as long as wo remain in AUCKLAND it will be our endeavour honourably to maintain tho position in which we have been plaocd by the extensive patronago we hava received from tho inhabitants of Town and Country, to whom we tender our sincere thanks. new C* OODSON'S. new GOODS.
