The native meeting at Hnntly is still proceeding. A great deal of dis mission has taken place regarding the grievances of the Maoris, and istepr are to be taken to redress them, Inr no decision has yet been arrived at. The directors of the Union Com pany have decided, in view of the advance in wages recently granted to waterside workers and seamen and other increases contingent on these, it has.become necessary to.reyige the present rate of freight and passage money. New Zealand coastal cargo rates will be increased by 3d to Is per ton, then intercolonial rates by Is 3d to Is 6d per ton, and an addition of o per cent, will be made to yb passage rates. In making these increases, say the directors in an authoritative notice supplied to the press, it is not seeking to recoup itself for full additional charges, but the company is itself absorbing one-third of the extra expense. The increased rates take effect from the 15th inst. in New Zealand . and ,qn The, 14th and 17th for Melbourne and Sydney respectively.
