TE IKA HAMANA. Kahore ano pea nga iwi Maori katoa o Heretaunga nei i rongo noa kite mahi aroha a etahi o nga rangatira Pakeha o Ahuriri nei, i mahi ai mo te iwi katoa. Na etahi o nga rangatira o Nepia nei, i tukua nga ika Hunana ki nga awa wai-maori o Ahuriri nei, ki ISTgaruroro, Id Tutaekuri, me etahi atti o nga awa e puta an* o ratou kongutu awa ki Heretannga nei. A kia kite* ete Maori, te utu nui o tatia ika, mete nui mom e puta ana ki nga iwi o etahi whenna mo aua ika, kola nga knpu o tetahi Nupepa i taia ai ano e matou. E mea ana tana Ntipepa, " Nga ika Hamana" • hiia ana ite awa o Karamia i Ameriha i tenei tau 1876, i tae ona taimaha kite wha-tekau miriona pauna taimaha, (40,000,000.) He mea tote aua ika, a he mea mahi etahi ki nga kena, a alma hou tonu ana aua ika kena e hokona nei hoki e te Maori i nga Toa o nga Taone. Ako tana tu mahi ite Hamana ki te kena, he kai e manaakitia ana e te ao katoa. A ko nga kena o aua ika e tukua ana ki Ingarangi i te tau, kotahi ran e ono tekau-ma rima ruano.

A e kiia ana ko te utu mo nga ika Hamana e mahia ana kite kena, ara. kite pi.ata. E tora miriona moni, (£3,000,000.) i ia tau, i ia tau. E mohio ana matou, tera e tuhituhi kupu whakapai mai nga Maori ki taua mahi a aua rangatira Pakoha o Ahuriri. Aka tiaki te Maori i aua ika, a kia tini, kia kapi aua awa i aua ika, ka mahi ai te kai hii, kaua e rahurahua i te mea e ouou ana aua ika, waiho kia tini, ka mahi ai ta taton kai rangatira.
