Native Mattebs. — In spite of the reports of the war correspondents' of the Opposition journals, peace still reigns at Parihaka and on the Waimate Plain?. The great Prophet atParihalja, like all'pseudo oracles speaks ambigously, and his speeches are variously interpreted. In his last speech some see nothing but threats of war, while others see in it nothing but promise of peace. Much interest is taken in Te Whiti by the natives assembled at the Orakei parliament in Waikato — (this is rather good) — and Anerahama Taonui, of the Ngapuhi tribe, has, in imitation of him, assumed the role of a prophet, and is drawing numbers to hear him. Sydney Taiwhanga, a schoolmaster, has bet a horse that the roads on the Waimate Plains will meet, and a TTgapuM native who was present at the last Parihaka meeting says that T* Whiti declared in his speech thai the roadr Would not meet. Te Whiti is evidently 1 , In a corner; 1 he does not want to fight, and his Spiritual power is insufficient to stop the tdidis, but he must stop them or bin reputation will be gone. — Tat'atittk'^Neifs- , ' MIBB Annie Firmin and Mi 4 .
