When will a superior power, the strong voice of a beneficial government, be able to speak out an that the whole native population shall not only hear but attend to the command "Peace be still"? Disputes about land ought to be settled in some other way than the sanguinary one now taken by our native population and a true philanthropy calls loudly on us to spare its decreasing number by making them British subjects. Mrs. Flight and my daughters desire to be very kindly remembered to you. Believe me ever yours very faithfully, Josiah Flight. D. Mclean Esq.Auckland
