71 ... T > i r >l The Hawke's Bag Herald of the 13th, announces Henare Matua with his “ Committee ” as having “started overland yesterday for Poverty Bay. He is canvassing actively for the seat In the House, which he hopes soon to see vacated by Karaitiana. He will find Ilenare Potae, his most formidable competitor. He has adopted a notion which is a novelty, at least in New Zealand electioneering tactics. White rosettes with his colors —the red, white, and blue—attached, are being sent about the country, to be worn as badges by his supporters. The colors are loyal, and bis present action, we are glad to learn, has been in keeping with them. Together with a large number of the East Coast natives, he has forwarded a request to the King to give up Sulliyan’s murderers peaceably.*
