THE W AIM ATE PLAINS. [By Electric Telegraph.] (PRESS ASSOCIATION.) Normanby, Yesterday.
THE TELEGRAPH WIRE CUT. SUSPICIOUS ASPECT OF AFFAIRS. Hawera, Last Night.
ThinoB are going on all smoothly. The Constabularly, hitherto stationed at Stoney River, Taranaki, have arrived and will commence road making.
THE BOYAL COMMISSIONThe Commissioners have done next to nothing as yet, and no time is fixed for transaction of business. Influential ohiefs are becoming somewhat impatient at this delay. The Native Minister has left for Wellington. The Commissioners, accomanied by Mr Parris, have paid a visit to the Plains.
The telegraph, wire has been out with some sharp instrument about two feet from the poles, situated on the south of Juaha Stream, last evening. The natives have a cultivation a few yards away, and although the potatoes are not ripe, strange to say, they commenced digging them yesterday. The cultivation is one of those fenced in and planted in defiance after the surveyors were turned of the Plains.
