McLean (who wai» himtc-lf the con vener of this first Runnnga), and were sub mitted to Governor Browne, who cordially supported tho proceedings, and en couraged us to held these meetings fre quently, in order to qualify ourselves for the management of the affairs of cur own people, under a somewhat regular system ; and thus, up to tho year 1805, the Imperial Government recognised that it could not consistently hand -over the management of tho native? to a body of colonists appointed by the Grown. Under tho present system it allows to others that of which it cannot dispossess itself without abrogat ing the Treaty of Waitangi.
