PAKOWHAI.
September 24th 1874. We have learnt since we thought of starting a paper, that the first English Newspaper was printed about 250 years ago; and up till now they have gone on improving, every year. This is our first' attempt and errors may hav« been overlooked, which toaome of our readers may appear strange and we would-therefore ask for your patience for the present Otir dbject in starting the paper was to enlighten ourselves on some subjects which are at present unknown to us, and which if we had understood earlier would have been greatly to our benefit: also by an interchange of thought-between' ourselves and the Europeans still better to learn their ways. We shall Ji- a s e v stron S l 7 uphold every thing that we tnnik will benefit not only our present generation but also our young people to whom we more especially look. On .the otheir hand we will consider fairly anything which at first we are not inclined to accept, knowing that in the world, many men have many minds.
