RANGIAOHIA.
We learn through the Rev. John Morgan, that the natives of this beautiful district are rapidly advancing in civilization. This Settlement in appearance is similar to an English Village Neat homesteads dotted here and there with haystacks, ploughs, harrows, and other implements of husbandry; and the scenery is enlivened by several flcur mills. The natives are extensive cultivators of wheat, which is ground at their mills and sold at Onehunga aud Auckland. No doubt this prosperous state of things is mainly attributable to the exertions of Mr. Morgan, who has the care of a large school, independently of his pastoral and other duties. We hope that our Maori friends at Rangiaohia will endeavour to lighten the burden of their Missionary, and encourage him in "his work and labor of love."
