A European Audience.

The Maoris, it is hoped, will for the first time gain a hearing, in the expression of their wants, from the European people whose sympathies for the Native are only withheld because of their ignorance that any grievances exist. At the same time this paper will not be open for fatuous agitation on matters which are not of public interest, and which are simply exploited to embarrass the authorities. Equally because a wrong is supported by those authorities, it will not escape censure for that reason. But always, consideration for the innocence of honest error will be extended, and to make that error scarcer, is one reason why we ask support for our paper.
