he was struck, leaped off the ground about 1 foot, and fell flat on his face, but never moved. Another, a Wanganui Officer, (native) did not fire until he got up the pallisade. He fired, turned round, and said - ''I nailed him!'' With that he received a ball in his chest. One of the balls further up (fired from the enemy) had portion of a despatch, written from Mr. H.R. Russell to Col. Herrick, when he was at Waikaremoana. From this it must be judged that some portion of the Urewora, or Te Waru's natives, are still with Te Kooti. I send you enclosed the latest telegrams from Wellington. Mr. Ross has resigned. He intends going Home. Col. Herrick has withdrawn from active service, previous, I believe, to getting married.
