OHINEMURI
THE NATIVE MEETING
(I'KOJI OUK OWN CORRESPONDENT.) March 28. The runanga took place on the day I last reported, and my expectations have been verified. Very serious complications have ensued in consequence of the injudicious publication of Tana te Waharoa's letter. The decision arrived at appears to be that the leading natives of all sides consider they should have been consulted, and are extremely irate against a now owner of land in Ohinemuri, presuming to say he would open Ohinemuri. Tana te Waharoa still says he had some consent from Te Hira, but, at the same time he never expected his letter to be published, and its publication lias giveu him much pain. The natives say that he shall never open it. If it is to be opened they, the owners of the land, will open it themselves ; and, I understand, the natives are commuueating with D. McLean, Esq., on tbe subject, so everything is at a standstill again. It does certainly appear that it was very injudicious to publish the letter, if not something worse, and there is nothing else to be done but await further revelations.
