Ko te kai rapu, ko ia te kite. Taete, 31 o Tihema, 1857. TE MUTUNGA O TE TAU.
E hoa ma, ko te ra whakamutunga tenei o te tau 1857. Me pewhea ranei he tikanga mo to tatou nei Karere i roto i te tau e takoto ake nei—te tau 1858? Me mahi tonu ranei i te perehi reo maori, me whakamutu ranei ikouei ? Ki a koutou, e hoa ma, te whakaaro : kei te homaitanga 0 nga utu te tikanga. Kite takoto wavve nga utu, ka tahi ka kitea to koutou hiahia mo tenei Nupepa kia mahia tonuiia; olira, kite hapa nga utu, ka meinga tera he take whakamutu i tenei mahi. Kei whea ra hoki he utu ma nga kai mahi ina kaiponohia e koutou P Kei te tau tonu iho te kanohi o te Maori ki runga i te Fakeha, mete miharo ano, mete ki, "Auana! te mohio o tenei iwi, o te pakeha." He pono ra, he iwi nui, whai whakaaro, whai rangatiratanga. Na te aha koia 1 kakß ai tenei iwi ? Na te mohiotanga. Ko to huarahi o te mohiotanga, he Pukapuka. Ko ngarileuga katoa o te mohiotanga kei roto i te pukapuka e mau ana—" ko te kai rapu, ko ia te kite." Hore rawa he mea a te pakeha e ngaro ana: taia rawatia ana kite pukapuka—mau tonu. Ata whakaarongia tenei mea, e hoa ma. E pai ana ranei koutou kiawhakakaheretia te'Nupepa ? Kei pohehe noa te whakaaro, eraugi kia marama. Kia tupato, e hoa ma, kei araiae koutou tetahi o nga huarahi o te mohiotanga —kei tapahia ponehelia te pou o tenei whare o meinga ana k*ia whakaarahia. E rite ana to tatou nei Nupepa ki to waka maori ka rnanu ki to wai. Ka tu tc kornaru, ka uaua nga kai hoe, ka tore ! ka tero ! Kia ta ra, kia pouri te Ao, ka u taua wak-i ki uta, ka moe tcna iwi. Mo tatou nei —kua u to tatou waka ki uta. Kei roa tatou e moe ana, e hoa ma : tatou ka aru, ka whakatukoto tikanga ■meake ka ao te ra. Me wbakatika
nga wahi katoa o te Ao, kimi ai i tera taonga nui, i te mohiotanga—me tahuri ke ranei te ihu o to tatou waka, me hoki atu kite kainga noho ai i roto ite pouritanga'i i te kuaretanga ? A, kite pai k >utou kia rere tonu to tatou waka, whakatakotoria nga utu ma nga kai hoe, whakarewaina te taura, kokiritia to tatou waka, tohungia te ihu ki waho : nieoke ka ao te ra—ka puta nei te tau 1858!
