OPUNAKE. January 1 9.
Thoro was ft very small attendance at tho Farihnka meeting this month. This fact and To Whiti's words show that no importance is attached by the natives to tho removal of tho Maori prisoners to Ilokitika and Dunedin. To Whiti and Tohu both express thomsolves satisfied that thoro will bo no fighting. To Whiti says that ho told thorn thoro would bo a company of people sent to Parihaka boforo tho prisoners rotnrnod. Sovoral Europeans, including two ladies from Opunako, were present at the mooting. They woro intoviewod in tho evening by Tohu, a Maori acting as interpreter. Unless tho Royal Commissioners or tho Constabulary go up, nothing more is likely to tako placo at Parihaka till after March.
