The correspondent of a contemporary telegrajihing from Pungarehu last Sunday saye :— About 5 p.m., I got round the sentries aud explored the demolished wharfs. Pigs, dogs, a:id foul 3 roamed through them. They ct ere ail doivn, smashed, tctteiing to their fall. Some wcro well furnished and lined inside with Tcriic.l j-arallc-1 r_iin».st._i!» Most had the indesciibabl*? emc-U of smoke and closeness and Maori bugs. The few Maoris within uight eyed me with approval, but I got too near a working party of Constabulary, and was immediately but courteously sent away by Colonel Roberts. About seveneigh'hiof the whole living accommodation will be destroyed, and gradually, I believe, be r< moved and used as firewood. The present danger from a stray spark is very great, and if a fire cccurs it will certainly be attributed to secret Govem**_*ent agents. It ia iLexplicable that the Constabulary should be permitted to leave these very combustible heaps of thatch and firewood lying in close contact in every direction. Thoy could all be burnt in daylight with perfect sifety.
