Affairs at Kawhia.
Wellington, this day.—Major Tuke ■who is in charge at Eawhia, wires to the Hon. Mr Bryce that Mr Mackay has complained that the native Tirihahi who made rather a pacific speech to the Governor, had turned him (Mr Mackay) nt the South Head, where he was pursuing his geological studies. This is the first intemiption he has met with, and Major Tuke promises to see Tirihahi regarding his conduct. A coal deposit has been discovered on Awaroa.
Major Tuke mentions that all the natives at Kawhia appear interested in the result of Tawhiao's visit to England. Tirihahi is the same native that destroyed the beacons' at Kawhia some time back.
Chhi*tchoßch, this day.—Mr W. D. Carruthers, an old settler, and formerly manager of the Trust and Loan Company, died on Saturday last.
