An AuokliA.ni> Manufactory. — In the neighbourhood of Mount Eden, tbere is the frame of a building of some considerable dimensions, and already we observe the signs of steam life puffing forth its significant power, ana wheels, and other signs of engine power are visible from the Whau road as you pass on southward from Mr; A. Mars's property. We hear that an article of very superior make and neatness, is soon to issue from this infant factory, which will eclipse and supersede the old and universally uaed American bucket. Of the New Zealand bucket, our ingenious and thrifty neighbour Mr. Biazard is, as we are informed, preparing to turn out 25 dozen per day. The article is made of New Zealand wood, and we earnestly hope that the undertaking may be amply remunerative and that the New Zealand bucket will be carried nob only throughout this country, but also throughout Australia. — New Zealander, May 28.

Coromandkl. — In a late number of the Southern Cross there appeared some remarks as to the state of the native mind at Coromondel, pointing out the determined spirit existing in that part of the country to make common cause, s with the Waikatos, should it be considered advisable by the Government to' call them to account for their rebellious doings. We find that the same feeling still exists, though at present the natives are more reserved on the subject than hitherto. Already, however, they have determined what to do in case of hostilities.- They propose to. leave their own country and to form -a stronghold, beyond 1 the Thames, in a position which they consider impregnable on account of the surrounding swamps. They freely canvass this question, and seem agreed as to their line of action. Old Paul is said to be on his deathbed; Although not possessing much influence, he still possesses some, and has hitherto made use of it, whatever his motives may have been, in a loyal manner. It remains. to be Been what the result of a new regime, may be amongst men, who we fear have only too much sympathy with rebels.; — Southern Crdss, May 28. Chabge ob Mtjodeb -against a -Native. — Elsewhere we publish the report of a charge of murder against a native of the Thames district, heard at the Besident Magistrate's Court yesterday. The charge was most properly dismissed on the evidence 5 - but we fully agree with the magis-trates-in the belief that a European has :been murdered,. and. Bl we, hope the chiefs will act on the suggestion made, and use every, exertibix to bring the perpretators of the crime to: justice.,—- 22w?.
