THE OHINEMURI QUESTION.
The meeting of Mr. Mackay with the natives was continued to-day—the meetings from day to day having been one long meeting, though the last two have been conducted privately* Very li*tle was done to-day. To Moananui attended, and the talk took the shape of argument about the rate of purchase money. Te Moananui wants a fresh offer—it is more a matter of price with ihis dusky potentate than of exaggerated conservativeism —but Mr Mackay would make no fresh offer, nor does he, we should imagine, purpose doing so. Te Moananui is said to have appeared a little more relenting to-day, but up to the hour of adjournment (one o'clock) nothing had been gained.
