NEW PLYMOUTH.
• This Day. It is stated that Te Whiti is not awed by oui 1 armament. He says if redoubts are built at Parihaka, the Maoris are not to fight, because then it will be impossible for Europeans to attack them. He made a long speech at the Parihaka meeting, which was
attended bjr, eight hundred Natives and some iSuropeaus, including ren^rters, talang -notes. He said he was God and Satan in one, and so coilld Work alt things good and evil. The world belonged to him, and he was Jesus Christ. - The end of all things was at hand, Courts and Commissioner's included. All things were under his feet — people, nations, and tongues. The time was at hand when those who stole the land off the Maori and acquired flocks and herds, amassed wealth, would lose all ; their goods would rot, and their ships rot in the harbors, and they would see their accumulations melt away like morning mist before ihe sun. ..,'./.
