[UNITED PBESS ASSOCIATION.] [SPECIAL TO ICKLBOTTENE ABQOT.] London, 4th September, 6.50 p.m. Sydney Taiwhanga and his Maori colleagues now in London are trying to establish an association which professes to purchase ten million acres o£ native land from its original proprietors, paying for it by permanent Government annuities secured to the sellers and their descendants. The Daily News, in referring to native affairs in New Zealand, expresses an opinion that Te Whiti should now be released, and restored to his homo at Parihaka. Five hundred special constables, enrolled in place of the constabulary who havo struck in Dublin, came into violent collision with the mob, and ultimately fired upon them. The excitement was intense, and a considerable number of the specials narrowly escaped being lynched in the streets.
