TE KOOTI IN THE URIWERA COUNTRY.

NATIVE EXPEDITIONS FROM BAST . : COAST. Last news: from the interior, received via the West Coast, was in effect that Te Kooti had escaped to the Uriweru country, where, in all probability, he would be joined by the turbulent tribes who occupy the same ; and that Kemp and M'Donnell were following Him with all despatch. We learn that, upon receipt in Napier of this intelligence, the General Government agent immediately and wisely took steps to organise native expeditions from this coast,* so as to act in conjunction with the Colonial forces who are marching from the other side. On Tuesday night Mr. Hamlin left for Wairoa, to organise the natives of Ihaka Wbanga, Paora te Apatu, and other loyal chiefs. And, yesterday, Mr. Locke left for Poverty Bay in the p.s. Cootuerang, with the view of hastening the movements of Ropata and the Ngatiporor^ contingent. These bodies of natives w'jj we understand, rendezvous at Ouepor d on shores of Waikaremoana Lake, preparatory ito further operations, in which ttvh vC y w j^ be accompanied throughout by F tf> Hamlin.
