About five hundred natives assembled at Whatiwhatihoe this morning, to meet Mr Bryce, who came over the river at 11 o'clock. Tawhaio stood up and 6aid there would be no talking this day. Mr Bryce W2S only coming over to see the people assembled to meet him. This was only a friendly meeting, and one in which the people would learn to know Mr Bryce and Mr Bryce them. The latter said he was content to welcome Tawhiao as a friend if the latter would meet him as such. With his aid he would do a great deal of good, but without it little. He would opeak frankly, as he always did and if Tawhiao did the same then the clouds which had separated the two races would disappear. Tawhiao said he was glad of this frankness, and he would be equally so. The people dispersed, it only being a day of greeting.
