TROOPS TO LEAVE TARANAKI.
(From the Taranaki Herald, June 27.) The Eclipse arrived this morning from Manukau with important news from the North, the particulars of which we have not been able to learn, but the Waikatos are said to have risen. Thatsoraething serious has occurred may bejudged by the fact that instead of General Cameron coming back here, the Eclipse returns to Auckland to night with the 70th —and we hear that Captain Mercer and the Mounted Artillery, the 40th and the 65th are to follow. We suppose Tataraimaka will now be temporarily abandoned, and we hope Oakura and Poutoko too, as the natives will then be emboldened to come within reach. 400 Volunteers for ' active service ’ are wanted by the Government from the Ist division of the Auckland Militia. They are to receive 2s. 6d. per day and rations.
