It is probable that there is some truth in the report, as whent he steamer wasleavingPareoralast night, the Ngatikoi were getting into readiness to pursue them and take revenge. Tho young man Me Williams is in the hospital, being very feverish. The hospital surgeons first extracted the bullet from his thigh wound, which is not considered dangerous. His father intends to demand of Mr. Shoehan, at the parade of volunteers this afternoon, that speedy measures be takon to capture the treacherous natives.
