AUCKLAND.
This day.
At the meeting of the Working Men's Political Association, only thirteen attended. A dispute arose among the members of the Committee as to who convened the meeting, and it was finally adjourned for a week without doing anything. ,
Tawaita, * Tawhiao's wife's sister, through whom the Sing was connected with Winiata, is dead, as it would appear, from want of proper medical attendance. A great tangi took place at Hikurangi over her remains, which are being brought from Te Kopua, where she died.
More l£ypd is being planted by King natives than e.ver before, fully three hundred acres are planted with potatoes at Hikurangi alone as provision for the next March meeting, and Tawhaio has had pieces of land marked off for all the various hapus round the district for planting potatoes.
