The natives getting up races at Taiporohenni sold by auction on Saturday the riyhfc to erect a publican's booth on the course, but, as it only brought 10s, they repudiated the sale. ' It may be as well that they have no waipero, btit .their conduct in this matter is not that of a rangitira. A course has been cleared and pegged off, and other necessary arrangements made in pakeha style. We understand that the natives have collected a fair amount of money, and one of the principal events will be the Taiporohenui Cup of £5.
