The New Zealand Spectator, AND COOK'S STRAIT GUARDIAN. Saturday, September 12, 1846.

We have been obliged to omit our leading article in order to make room for the despatches from Major Last, published in this day's Spectator, which we received late on Thursday. They refer to the movements of our native allies in pursuit of Rangihaeata, and are continued to ths 30th August, and confirm the account we have previously published. We may add, our allies report that Rangihaeata is building a strong pa near Otaki, and that the Ngatiraukawas seem disposed to side with him ; and they appear to think that in a few months the war is likely to be renewed on Rangihaeata's part with increased vigour. Epuhi's people are building a strong pa at Petoni for their own protection.

We understand that His Honor the Superintendent has given another five pounds in addition to the ten pounds previously pro mised by him as part of the original reward offered for the apprehension of the persons concerned in Messrs. Greenwood's robbery.

On Tuesday afternoon, as Thomas Low, a promising lad on board H.M.S. Calliope was aloft on duty, he unfortunately missed his footing, and fell headlong on the deck, and was killed on the spot. His body was interred the following day in the cemetery, and was attended to the grave by some of the officers and his fellow- messmates.

Theatre. — The performance on Wednesday evening next being for the benefit of Mr. J. Sutherland^e have no doubt that, in assuming his favourite character, he will meet with that patronage which his well-known abilities merit; and that, in bringiug before the public pleasing reminiscences of the " days o* Auld Langsyue," the "Bailie" will give his "My conscience!" with increased gusto,,and exert his utmost to gain the approbation of his friends from " Baith Sides the Tweed" and the " Emerald Isle."
