Mo te Karere o Poneke.
Heretaunga, Pepuere 12, 1858. E hoa ma,—Kua korerotia e ahau nga nupepa katoa o te Karere Maori. Kei te pai etahi o nga korero; otira ko etahi kahore ano i tino pai. Nate tangata whai whakaaro elabi o nga reta, otira ko ;etabi be mea tubitubi noa ete taugata e hiuhia ana kia kite i tona ingoa kua oti te ta i roto i te nupepa, ebakoa kahore be tikanga i roto i tana reta. Me tuhi tubi a koutou wbakaaro—be mea pai tena; otira kia pai te whakaaro, kia whakamaramatia hoki nga kuware e te hunga mohio. E mea aua pea te taugata e tuhi tubi uoa ana i tana pukapuka, abakoa kahore be tikanga kei roto, a e tono ana i tana pupapuka kia taia, na reira e whakanuia ai tona ingoa e nga tan gata o tona pa. .Ma reira ranei ka whai honore taua tangata ? E mea ana ahau, kahore : ka' titiro nga tangata ki nga tikanga nui, ki nga tikanga pai o nga reta, a ma reira, ma te pai o te tikanga, ma te nui o te mabiotanga, ka whakanuia te ingoa o te kai tuhituhi. Kei ki koutou, ma te tanga o koutou ingoa •e whai honore ai koutou. Kahore Ta; —otira, na te mobiotanga, na te marama o nga tikanga ka whai honore ai koutou. E rite ana tenei whakaaro kuware ki tenei KORERO TARA. (fable 2.) Ko te Kaihe kua whakakakahuria ki te kiri o te Raiona. Tera ano tetahi Kaihe e noho ana i tona parae. Ka rongo ia kite reo o te feaiona e tangi ana; a i kite boki ai nnrn l-ftTaroVio l-afno rt t ana „
e oma ana kei bopukitm e te Raton a. I ki tana—" auo te pai o te Raiona ! rongo kau aua uga karahehe ki tona re;> ka wehi, ka oma katoa ratou !" II a, i aia e_ whakaaro pena ana, ka kite ia i te kin o tetahi Raiona kua patua e nga tangutu o tana kaiuga; a ka whukauro ia kia whakakakahuria ia ki taua kiri Raiona. Na i pena auo ia, a i haere atu ia mete kiri Raiona kua oti te kakahu. I tona hokinga atu ki ana hoa i te parae, ka kite ratou i a ia i tawhiti e haere mai aua, a i mea ratou " aue! he raioua te haere mai na !" ka wehi ratou, a ka oma. Ka kata te Kaihe, aka oma ia anoki te hopuitetahi ongakararehe: otira i a ia e kata ana katahi ka rongo ngakararehe ki tona reo, hereo kaihe, ehara ia i te reo nui ote Raiona. Ka mea ralou " He kaihe ! he kaihe !"—a ka bnki ratou, ka tangohia tana kiri raiona, ka wana atu ki a ia, ka maka atu hoki ki wabo o te parae. E hoa ma, kei rite koutou kite kaihe nei:—kei mea koutou, ma te tubituhi noa ite pukapuka kite karere Maori ka rite koutou kite tangata mohio : kei kataiua hoki koutou e nga tangata o nga whakaaro kei roto kei nga reta. Heoti ano. Na to koutou hoa aroha, Nate Hutana.
