AUCKLAND.

j'From the A etc Zealaniter. The Natives.—We continue to receive -satisfactory accounts of the tranquilityuof the Northern districts; though our correspondent describes .the state of feelincr ■■ amongst the Native Chiefs, to -be that oT" ■ a cold and suspiciousrjealousy of the Governor and hie, proceedings. Although peaceably inclined, they are-very far from sentiments of esteem and respect ■for the Government. The troops have removed fromsVictoriato'tAe Wahapu. Heki has recently visited Kaipara, and tpassed some Ume with.bis relative Parore, >-at Kaihu. .He wasaccompanied by about forty men several women, and received by die Kaihu people Tvith every > tration of respect. Numbers of pigs were slaughtered, and large.quaoiities of potatoes provided for his entertainment. Our correspondent says, that Parore .is very reserved when questioned respecting the purport of this visit, and is evidently unwilling; to relate what.passed. We are .given to understand, however, rhat in the -event of any future ombreak, Parore's allegiance would' be submitted to a vety severe test j and that it.is extremely doubtful which side he would espouse. Many of Kawiti's people have been industriously -engaged in getting out sparo for the vessels now loading .at Kaipara for England. ■The Xaxe Capiain Grant.—We •understand that-a marble monument, of very chasio design, and superior execu•tionjhas been forwarded from England "in to Sydney, by the ftiends •and relatives of the lamented Captain Grant, who fell while gallantly leading on his company of the 58th Regt., to the assault on Heke's pali, at Ohaeawai.— This token of the affectionate remembrances of Jiis surviving friends, will be erected over the mouldering -remains of the hero, who was; interred at Paihia, a >fitation of the Church Missionary Society. New JounNAL.—Another Auckland with ihe singular title of" The Antipodean," made its appearance on ■Monday last.
