NATIVE AFFAIRS.
New Plymouth, April I. Tho Herald says —“ Hotwit. s Landing the sensational telegrams forwarded by correspondents to newspapers in other parts of the colony, native affairs were never more favorable than at the present time. We have it on the authority of those who are thoroughly acquainted with the natives that there is no sign of warlike intention on tho part of the Maoris at Parihaka, and on the plains they have never shown a more friendly feeling towards Europeans than is exhibited at the present time. The Parihaka are all engaged in preparing the ground for planting potatoes, of which there will be a larger area put down than during any previous season. The natives at Earoho are very friendly, and take no money for produce which they supply to the camp, insisting on making presents. When the ro d party crosses the houndary, and enters on Parihaka territory, we learn that Te Whiti will act similiarly, and that roads will be allowed to be made without any aggressive action on the past of natives.”
