Wahanui before the House. [Own Correspondent.] Wellington, November 1. In the House this morning, Wahanui’s speech was to the effect that Native land on which no white man had yet set foot should be administered by the Natives themselves, He characterised the Native Lands Settlement Bill as a dangerous serpent with teeth in its head and a sting in its tail. Mr. Ballance moved the second reading, and said he would have the Bill altered in committee so as to leave only the prohibition against private individuals dealing with the lands* Wi Pare suggested administration of lands by Boards of three, of which two should be appointed by the natives and one by the Government. Te Ao advocated certain alterations in the measure. November 3. Wahanui’s appearance in the House on Saturday morning excited a good deal of interest. His deportment was respectful, yet dignified. When he entered the chamber accompanied by an interpreter, he bowed at once to the Speaker, and said, in a clear and collected manner, “ Mr. Speaker, salutations to you.” He then repeated salutations to the members of the House, and proceeded with his address.
