Native News.
The Taranaki News of the 1st instant says:— ."The natives from Waitara passed through New Plymouth on Saturday, en route to Parihaka. They behaved themselves in an orderly manner during their stay in the Waitara district, and caused the inhabitants no trouble. On the contrary, they materially increased trade there, as they made purchases from the maority of the tradesmen to the extent of several hundreds of pounds. They indulged in a 'march round' the Waitara township and across the bridge, but they first obtained permission of Mr Pardy. We understand that Te Whiti has given strict instructions to his followers to in no way disobey the police, and, if the police warn them that they are breaking the law, they must desist at once. That is a state of security and quietness in native matters that, we venture to say, has never previously been attained in Taranaki."
