NEW PLYMOUTH.
Monday. Ngamere (better known as Kcmere, a bad, quau-elsojre man), and some Aote:i natives of the Taranaki trifie, attempted to remove some of Captain Good's cattle. Captain Good is in partnership with Honi Pa'ianra, late contractor- for carrying the mails by Cobb's coach from Hawcra to NeW Plymouth, who ow is ;he old hotel. The cattle were rescued without harm. The natives threaten-d to ■ return with arms aid shoot them, but have been induced to go without arms/ The whole dispute arkes through a tribal boundary between the Tar ;naki and Ngatararui tribes, but the land being confiscated territory the Government have only rrsognis°d the claim of the latter in the person of Honi Pahama. Any one who has travelled up the coast- knows Honi Pahama. He is looked upon as a most straightforward, honest, and energetic settler. He cannot be contrasted with Kamere, who is looked upon as a blackguard native. Eamere is the native who caused the disturbance some time since at the Opunake flax nulls. Te Whiti, the Parakika p.'ophet condemns the action of Kamere.
