AUCKLAND OPPOSITION PRESS. DISGRACEFUL EXPOSU RE.

The untruthful correspondents of the Auckland opposition press, by their persistent attempts to mis-represent what to >k place at tho late meeting bet wee a Tawhiao and the Defence Minister have drawn forth a refutation of the statements from the pen of tho gentleman who acted us our special reporter at tho conference at Kaipiha. That gentleman is a Waikato settler of known probity intelligence and position, and his fl.it contradiction of the statements of the correspondent of the Herald, Mr Henry Alley, must bo conclusive to every person open to reason and conviction. Of tho more damaging expose of tho manner in whiok the account of whnfc what took place was "cooked" in the office of tho Auckland paper, in order to make it bear a different construction to what it really represented, we shall say nothing. It is a disgrace to the New Zoaland press, a scandal to journalism in this Colony, which it pains us even to refer to. The letter of our spec3.il reporter will be found in another clumn.
