The Native settlement of Parawene, near Orakaa, in the Upper Waikato, where King Tawhiao is now residing, is said to be one of the neatest and moot flourishing Maori settlements in the Waikato district. A considerable number of Tawhiao's adherents of the Waikato tribe lately settled at Parawene, and have done a good deal in the way of cultivation. They have just now an excellent crop of wheat of 300 acres, and are employing the reapers and binders of their European neighbours to harvest it.
