She left Dunedi-i, afrer a stay of a month, on December 27, and made the Cnatham Islands on January 5, where she Cast anchor. On the day following (January 6) Captain Chapman assembled the principal settlers and chief's, Maoris and Maoriores, to witness gun practice. They availed themselves generally of the invitation. At the conclusion of the practice, Captain Chapman addressed the natives, and said that ifc .-.Horded him much pleasure to see them there, and to hear that they were so peaceably disposed to the whites. Ho hoped sincerely that they would continue to be friendly disposed towards the Europeans. His ship was one of Queen "Victoria's "ships, and he (Captain Chapman) had come there as the representative of the Queen. In that capacity he would visit them from time to time; and he hoped, on each succeeding visit, to find as satisfactory an account of them as lie had now received. The principal Maori chief stood up and replied to Captain Chapman. He said that it was the wish of tho natives to be on good terms with the whites —-that it v.-as no use being otherwise, as t-hev all lived in a pannikin. The assembly then dispersed. The Dido took her departure on the morning of the 7th of January, and arrived here on Tuesday afternoon. During the passage experienced heavy N.E. squalls, on the 9th instant the barometer falling as low a3 29.05. The Dido is likely to remain here until relieved by some other vessel.
