ABSTRACT of the Revenue and Expenditure of the Town and District of Wellington, for the quarter ended 31st March, 1846.

On Wednesday last a party of the rebels were seen by a settler in the valley of the Upper Hutt, who gave information of the circumstance. A party of the Militia were immediately sent out, and they followed on their track as far as the Silver Stream, where all further traces of them were lost. They had evidently been surprised while preparing their food. The Militia, on arriving at the place where the natives had been staying, found the stones in the native ovens quite hot.
