AUCKLAND.
This day. The half-yearly report of the Bay of Islands Coal Company show a loss of £1500. A Kotorua telegram dated yesterday states that the Native Minister left there I via Cambridge, this morning at seven o'clock ; nothing definite is.satisfactorily 'arranged about the railway. The natives were very stubborn, and expressed great want of confidence in the integrity of the Minister. Pukeroa setters however will probably be dealt with in a less stringent manner than was at first decided on. An experienced arbiter will be appointed to estimate the value of the various holdings, each one to receive recompense accord-, ing to merits of his ease. Had this desirable consummation been achieved at first, the assistance of the settlers, shame* fully discarded would have been secured, and many hindrances that have beset the path of the Government, in the great Kotorua scheme, would have sunk into insignificance. The new premises for the Bank of New South Wales were' opened yesterday; their jcosb was £11,500, without the land.
