(Correspondent Wanganai Herald.) Tappo, Tuesday. The native meeting at Poutou, which has extended over the last three weeks, has now broken up. Resolutions We passed, principally; by- strangers influenced by Topia Turoa, to the effect that there is to be no leasing and no sale of land until the arrival of Mr Gorst from England. Hehuehu and Hohepa Te Mamutn (chiefs of this district), and their hapus, are m favour of leasing or selling lands, and strongly resented the unwarrantable interference of strangers coming into the district interfering . m local native matters. They also declared that, they would petition the Government to hold a land court as soon as possible m Taupo. -
