"On Monday -week last Morgan's tribe, who had been sent for by the Superintendent of Napier, Mr. D. McLean, arrived at Tauranganui from . Waipu, and, after remaining there -two' days toreroing, started for a redoubt, where the Forest Rangers were stationed, and from that place they would join the force in search of the rebel:Karfcopa and his party. We iicpe soon to hear a good account of their doings and the £ capture of this arch rfcbeL *
