Our host was a middle-aged man, who had been 18 years in the country, and had married the daughter of a chief of the Ngaungau. Imagination could almost picture the river covered with boats and barges, and lined with villages--the plains dotted with farmhouses, and the whole one scene of cultivation and animated industry. Now, any comparison to animals such as a pig, is considered most disparaging, and hence the. This apathy is a marked trait in the native character, from which they can only be aroused by strong excitement, and it would seem to be a bar to their ever becoming a persevering and active race of men, unless changed by the force of example and education. It was dark before we reached our destination, in doing which we strayed from the path, and had to find our way as we best could, through tall fern and scrub, and the remains of fallen trees, which always encumber the ground around a Maori settlement, who in clearing for cultivation, take the wholesale method of burning the trees as they stand, planting between the stumps, and sometimes not even drawing aside the fallen branches and half-burnt trunks. A long flat island, covered with the same rich vegetation as the others, now divided the stream, which would otherwise have been very broad, into two comparatively narrow channels.

Our course, hitherto South, now turned westward, along a path mid-way between the wooded range dividing the basins of the Manukao and the Waikato, and a vast extent of undulating country opened out to the West, extending from the shores of the Manukao, to the foot of the dividing range, a distance of several miles, almost entirely bare of wood, with the exception of a few small clumps, and some wedge-shaped masses, which extended from the hills; a good deal of flax was scattered over the surface, and in the swampy hollows.
Table-lands, similar to the one on which we stood, extended eastward to the Pukatea, several miles distant, and stretched coastwise for a long way, until they merged with wooded hills; and in the course of time, though now chiefly covered with tall fern, thousands of cattle could find pasturage over them.
One solitary barque then lay at anchor in the harbour, now a fine frigate and every variety of vessels floated on the waters of the Waitemate. A tin pot serves as tea-kettle and tea-pot, and each man carries a 'pannikin' for a cup and drinking vessel, a few tin plates, knives, forks, and spoons, complete the equipment.
On the 16th, according to Sarah Mathew, who was on board. A wooden bridge, or causeway, which must have been constructed with great labour, leads from the river bank, across some flooded ground, to one of those circular hollows I have described, and on a plateau which juts out from its steep sides, is situated his cottage, and certainly a more convenient and picturesque site for a house could not have been selected.
The greater number of the people of the pa are still heathens, in consequence of the refusal of Te Whero-whero to become 'Mihinare'.

This is of course a necessary operation, in clearing forest land, but as the natives seldom grow more than three or four crops on the same ground, the work of destruction is continually going on, and the forests are daily diminishing. Ngaruawaha would seem the spot in every respect well-adapted cither for a settlement or a military post, if, unhappily, such should be required; the country extending from the point of land, which if level, or slightly undulating, seemed, from the luxuriant growth of the fern and other shrubs, to possess a soil equally rich as the immediate banks, and abundance of wood covered the opposite hills.
A few hundred yards beyond the creek, a level tract, elevated about ten feet above the beach, extends across to the shores of the Tamaki inlet, where there is deep water. Johnston, an accomplished artist, was the first to call attention to the inviting appearance of the country lower down, and I offered to leave the cutter and remain behind to take soundings and examine the shore at low water.

But this arbitrary re-baptismexcept under the above-mentioned circumstances, should be discouraged, Mount St. We often hear of chiefs and slaves at Auckland, but there it is often difficult to distinguish the rangatira from the taurekarekabut on this journey I had living exemplifications of the two classes, in the persons of a young chief the son of Pakuru, the principal chief of the Ngatiawa, of Kawhia, and his slave boy.
About a mile in our rear, similar hills enclose the Lake of Wangape, whose waters by atrata tortuous course, join the Waikato, not far from the Pukatea. It falls into the Karaka Creek, an inlet from the Manukao, and at high water, when the tide ascends far beyond the ford, boats and canoes may push on to near the foot of the range, a fact which makes this part of the country of much greater value than it otherwise would be, as timber for fencing and fuel, the chief wants in this bare tract, could be easily carried to the banks, and conveyed down to where it might he required.
We had to practise both at Tuakau, for, wishing to push on as far as the Pukatea that night, we could not succeed in getting our people embarked, until manw was too late to think of reaching that place, and we were therefore compelled to restrict our voyage to Paparama, the settlement of Mr. He himself was a handsome lad of fifteen, who had been to Auckland for the important purpose of buying some European clothes and a pair of shoes, in order to ride a race on one of his father's horses, maana plate not being, as may be supposed, a cup, emulating that of the Derby, but six pigs.
Marshall, who has been settled for some time at this spot. Fields whitening to the harvest, were cut out of these undulating hills, divided hlra belts of wood, which had a most pleasing appearance, not unlike some d of Taratta and a wind-mill on a rising ground, gave an impression of greater age to the cultivation than any other object could have done.
Both the place and the people had so repulsive an appearance, that although urged to remain, and even offered a house for our accommodation, we determined after having some food cooked for our party, to push on, preferring rather to bivouack on the banks of the river, though a dense fog mnaa rising, than to pass the night in so filthy a place. A hoda road might be constructed, with the greatest ease, across the range, as far as levels are concerned, but there might be some difficulty in removing the gigantic timber of the forests, whose roots of great thickness and length, are matted together like an iron network; besides, the friable nature and depth.
At Onehunga we found flofin natives who formed the suite of my companion, engaged in apportioning the baggage and 'trade', which each was to carry, a matter of no small difficulty, where men, who can remonstrate, are the beasts of burthen.
We diverged from this road to follow a more direct Native path to the yarata of Papakura, which crossing the spurs of the range, sloping down to the Manukao, each being separated from the other by a swampy stream, filling up the tarafa, makes winter travelling very unpleasant, as I had before experienced, from the necessity of wading through them but now, from the absence of rain for so long a period, they were nearly dry.
They show also the former existence of a large concentrated population, which has partly disappeared under the scourge of war and disease, or now that peace is restored, have scattered themselves over the face of the country.

The few houses, more in approximation than ordinary, are called by anticipation the village of Epsom, and some of them with their grass plats and gardens, would not have disgraced the mother country. Nevertheless, the name of the day brought with it the reminiscences of early years, at our paternal fireside, linked with so many associations, that notwithstanding the enlivening nature of every object around, we could scarce repress some melancholy thoughts.
Ali Na 7 years ago Selciuc NR: His wife was rather a good-looking woman, and he had a fine family of children, but who, in dress and manners, were scarcely distinguishable from their Maori relatives. It is perhaps fortunate that the soil of New Zealand is not generally so rich as to make the growth of grain almost spontaneous, but exacts so much labor, and consequently so many hands to carry it on, as will always afford occupation to a rural population, and prevent an over-abundant supply from the expenses of cultivation, at the same time that the price of grain, if raised by Europeans, will never become too low for the advantageous investment of capital, nor for the employment of labour at a reasonable rate.
The sentences are sometimes very long and loosely hung together with commas. The birds gave the usual signal for rising, at daybreak, and after we had dried our blankets, which were saturated with dew, and arranged our packages, we proceeded on our way to Tuakau.

The chief defect is, the almost total manna of wood, and shelter of any description--hence it was of no value to the Natives, who were easily induced to part with it--indeed they seldom dispose of land, which possesses the indispensable requisites of wood and water.
