Idling so long as he expected. He is s 'll kept handcuffed, una in a separate whare from the other prisoners. He was brought before the Resident Magistrate at New Plymouth yesterday, and bound over to keep the peace. Other offences are, however, to be preferred against him.

There is uothing fresh from the front beyond the pulling down of a few more "hares. Tifokowaru was to leave Pungarehu for New.
