H.M.S. RINGDOVE.
[Br TEIiKQRAPH,—OWN CORRESPONDENT,] Tauranqa, Monday. 11.M.5. Ringdove arrived here yesterday, and leaves on Wednesday. Considerable feeling is evinced at the action of the postmatter, who is also telegraphist and Customs representative, in nob making public an official message received by him from Gisborne, to the effect that the Ringdove would call hero. On being interviewed by the Mayor ho said it was none of his business to make ib publio. The consequence was, that the first intimation His Worship the Mayor received of tho visit of tho warship was when the captain called on him at his prirato residence as an old friend. The intention of Captain Bremor was to have brought tho Ringdove up to tho wharves if he had been received, and there had been anyone to pilot him.
