CENSUS OF THE MAORI POPULATION, 1881 (PAPERS RELATING TO THE).

Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly by Command of His Excellency

No. 1. Cieculae to Ojpicees in Natite Districts. Sib,— Native Office, Wellington, 9th February, 1881. I am dii'ected by Mr. Rolleston to inform you that you have been appointed an enumerator1 for the purpose of. taking a census of the Maori and half-caste population in the district noted in the margin. It is considered desirable that the Maori census district for which you are responsible should be as large as possible ; but you will be authorized to employ such assistance as may be absolutely necessary, and you are requested to forward a statement to this office of the paid assistance you will require and an estimate of the probable expenditure. You are also authorized to request the co-operation of any officers in the Government service whose aid or information would be of value to your work. Mr. Rolleston desires that you will use your best endeavours to make the census as accurate as possible, and with this view, you will place yourself in communication with the gentlemen who have been appointed enumerators in other districts (a list of whom I enclose),in order to avoid the omission of any Natives or their being numbered in more than one return. 1 append a form of return to which I am to request you will be good enough to adhere, furnishing all the information required under the different heads. Tour return should also be accompanied with a report on the increase or decrease within your district since the last census was taken, remarking also upon the general state of health of the Natives and any disease or epidemic which may have visited them, and supplying any other information bearing upon the statistics of the Maori population which may be of interest. The European census will be taken on the night of the 3rd of April, and it is desirable that the Maori population should be taken as residing on the following day The returns should be forwarded to this office, if possible, not later than the end of April. I enclose a list of the principal tribes in New Zealand, to assist you in filling up the first column of your return. I have, &c, T W Lewis, Under-Secretary.

No, 2. Mr. J S. Clendon, E.M., "Whangarei, to the Undee-Secbetaey, Native Department. SlEj— Eesident Magistrate's Office, Whangarei, 30th April, 1881. I have the honor to enclose herewith the returns for the Maori census north of Auckland, showing an aggregate number of 8,607 The numbers from the Hokianga District have been made by wire. 1 shall forward the returns as soon as received. The Kaipara, Whangarei, and Mongonui Districts show a slight increase in number. But in the Bay of Islands no register having been kept up, the increase or decrease could not be ascertained. Most probably a slight decrease has taken place in that district. The deaths in all these districts have been principally old people and young children: the former from old age and the latter from exposure to the weather in winter. On the whole, the mortality appears very small in comparison with the population, the cause of which may be the almost total absence of epidemical disease, from which, save in a few instances of typhoid fever, the Natives appear to be perfectly free. In both old and young the general cause of death may be attributed to their own careless and unthrifty habits—such as sleeping on the ground in winter on the gum-fields without adequate shelter, scanty clothing, and scarcity of food, eventuating in colds and consumption, causing death. Their intemperate habits have been much lessened during the past four years, and a very much smaller number of deaths have occurred during the period from intemperance than during the previous years, which may possibly be accounted for from the fact of their having sold loss land, and having less money to expend in that manner. In some parts of the district the enumerator has experienced a great difficulty in obtaining the necessary information, the Natives being extremely suspicious; in others, again, the information has been cheerfully accorded. I have, &c, The Under-Secretary, Native Office, James S. Clendon, Wellington. Eesident Magistrate.

No. 3. Mr. J S. Clendok, E.M., "Whangarei, to the Under-Seceetabt, Native Department. Sic ; — Eesident Magistrate's Office, "Whangarei, 4th May, 1881. I have the honor to enclose the Maori census returns for the Hokianga District, showing the numbers (2,828) as already wired. Mr. "Webster, as shown by his memorandum at foot, has experienced some difficulty in obtaining the necessary information. I have, &c, The Under-Secretary, Native Office, James S. Clenbos, Wellington. Eesident Magistrate.

No. 4 Major Maie, Native Agent, E.M., Auckland, to the Uitdee-Seceetaby, Native Department. Sib,— Native Office, Auckland, 13th May, 1881. I have the honor to forward a census of the Maori population of the Auckland, Waiuku, Eaglaia, and Upper and Lower Waikato Districts;

Hstrioi. Males. Females. Principal Tribe. Sub-Tribe. Hapu. Usual Residence. Total. Under 15. Over 15. Total. Tinder 15. Over 15. Total.

I may state that I do not think that the return will prove to be an accurate one for the reason that during the month of April, when it was in course of preparation, the Natives in this part of the colony were all on the move to attend the Native Land Court at Cambridge, and Tawhiao's meeting at Hikurangi, and added to this the growing disinclination on the part of the Maoris to have their numbers recorded. I think, therefore, that in all probability there are instances where a double return has been made, and others where travelling parties have altogether escaped enumeration. Under these circumstances it will be almost impossible to institute comparisons for the purpose of ascertaining whether there is an increase or a decrease in any one hapu or tribe. Speaking generally, I should say that there is a steady decrease, but that it is slower in the case of the Upper Waikato or Kingite Natives than in the other portion of the district. Unfortunately the numbers of these people can only be estimated, as free access to all parts of their country is not permitted. Since the last census was prepared in 1878, no serious diseases or epidemics have visited the Natives in these districts, and the general health has been better than usual. The Under-Secretary, Native Department, I have, &c, Wellington. W G, Maib.

No. 5 Mr. G-. T. Wilkinson, Native Agent, Thames, to the Under-Seceetaet, Native Department, Sic,— Native Office, Thames, 3rd May, 1881. In accordance with instructions contained in Circular No. 14, 9th February, 1881, appointing me an enumerator for the purpose of taking a census of the Maori and half-caste population in the Thames and Cape Colville Districts, I have the honor to forward herewith the returns (supplied to me) filled up, showing the numbers of male and female adults, and male and female children under fifteen years of age, belonging to each tribe, sub-tribe, and hapu within the HauraH District; also, those of other tribes who are either permanently located, or are at present sojourning in this district, as well as the number of half-castes, male and female. This information has been compiled by me, partly with the assistance of the Native Assessor of this district, and one or two other Natives (from whom I obtained written lists of the numbers of people of different sexes living in their particular districts), but principally from information iii my possession, obtained through my lengthened residence and intimate acquaintance with the Natives of the whole of this district—information which I found to be more reliable than that which is to be obtained by sending people to assess the Maori population of a given settlement at a given time, as, on account of the scattered way of living that the Natives have at this season of the year, it is almost certain that information obtained in that way would be faulty But by reference to office documents, to grantees of blocks already through the Court, to information got by enquiry from Natives, and private knowledge of my own, I have been enabled to compile a schedule for present census purposes and for future office use, that contains, I believe (with a few exceptions hereafter referred to), the name of every man, woman, and child within the Hauraki District, and also shows the particular tribe, subtribe, or hapu to which each one belongs, and the settlement where each one resides. In order to make this list as complete as possible it has been necessary for me to make more use of clerical than Native assistance. I have, however, through working over-time myself, been able to get the work done without exceeding the limit of expenditure mentioned by me in my telegram of the 14th. of March. The census returns now forwarded show an increase of 18G over that furnished by Mr. E. W Puckey for the year 1878 ; but it must not be understood from that that the population of this district has increased to such an extent during the last three years, or that the births have out-numbered the deaths in such a proportion during that period, although it is a fact that the Upper Piako District has received considerable additions from Natives of the King Country during the last two or three years. I can, therefore, only account for the difference in numbers from the fact that Mr. Puckey had not at that time the material at his command from which to compile a strictly accurate return, and therefore in several cases the returns were given as estimated. I have myself had in two cases (namely, that of the gum-digging population and some of the residents of Upper Piako) to give the numbers as estimated, on account of the gi-eat difficulty of getting information regarding some of the latter, through their reticence in supplying particulars regarding themselves, and in consequeuce of the nomadic habits of the former. The general state of health amongst the Natives in this district has, during the last three years, been good, they not having suffered from any particular disease or epidemic, the mortality occurring principally amongst the very young and the aged, and not so much amongst those of middle age, the cause of which I attribute to the fact that drunkenness has not been so prevalent as in past years. The sickness that has proved most fatal to Natives in this district has been consumption and disease of the lungs in the elder ones ; and simple childhood diseases, accelerated by want of proper care and nourishment, in the younger ones. I have, &c, The Under-Secretary, Native Department, G-eoege T. Wilkinson, Wellington. Native Agent.

No. 6. Mr. 11. W. Beabant, E.M., Tauranga, to the Undee-Secbetaey, Native Department. Sic, — Native Office, Tauranga, 17th May, 1881. In accordance with the instructions contained in your Circular Letter No. 14, 9th February, 1881, I have the honor to transmit herewith the census of the Maori population of the Bay of Plenty and ilotorua Districts, exclusive of that portion of the former which has been entrusted to Mr. Bush, viz., the country to the east of the Tarawera Eiver.

The returns have been prepared with as great accuracy as the scattered and semi-nomadic character of the Maori people, and the limited assistance at my disposal, would admit. The census of the Ngaiterangi Tribe may be taken as correct; that of the other tribes approximately so. The Ngaiterangi census shows a total of 930 against 973 in 1878, or a decrease of 7 On the other hand, there is an improvement shown in the percentage of young people to the whole population, which is 264 per cent, as against 224 per cent, in 1878. It may be observed that the percentage of the persons under 15 to the whole European population is nearly 43 per cent. The number of old people amongst this tribe is remarkable, those apparently over 00 numbering 108, or about 112 per cent.; the percentage amongst the European population of persons over 60 to whole number being only 242. The return for the Arawa Tribe (Maketu and Lakes), shows a total of 2,135 persons as against 2,219 in 1878 ? or a decrease of 84 ; but I believe that about 40 of the Natives at present shown as residing at Motiti, were, in 1878, on the mainland about Maketu, which would make the real decrease about 40. There is a remarkable difference between the number of male and female children in the Rotorua District, the former numbering 291, and the latter 193. When I noticed this. I referred the papers back to Mr. Hall, Clerk to the Bench,. Ohinemutu, who enumerated these people. He states, however, that the return has been carefully prepared, and that he is confident of its correctness. I have nothing particular to remark as to the state of health of the Maori population during the last three years. The only epidemic which came under my observation was the whooping-cough, which was prevalent for a time at Rotorua in 1879. I have asked Dr. Arro.itage to furnish a report on the subject, which I take leave to enclose. I have, &c , T. W Lewis, Esq., Under Secretary, Herbert W Brabant, Native Department, "Wellington. Resident Magistrate.

Enclosure in No. 6. Dr. Aemitage to Mr. H. W. Brabant, R.M. S,b,— Tauranga, 18th May, 1881. I have the honor to inform you that the health of the Natives in this district, so far as my own observation has extended, has been on the whole good. On referring to my notes, I find recorded a few cases of whooping-cough in April, 1879 ; but it did not become epidemic in this neighbourhood, or I must have known of it. I heard, however, that it prevailed severely at Rotorua. More trifling cases are brought to me than formerly, but Ido not regard that as of much moment; it rather indicates, I think, the increased facilities for travelling. The influence of syphilis in the affections of infants I find more extensive than formerly, though primary syphilis does not spread so severely as I had sometimes anticipated it would, for it is very rarely the Natives can be kept under treatment until a complete cure is effected, in consequence of which, of course, the offspring is frequently tainted. I have, &c, H. W. Brabant, Esq., R.M., Tauranga. F W Aemitage, M.E.C.S.

No. 7 Mr. R. S. Btish, R.M., Opotiki, to the Under-Secretary, Native Department. Memorandum on Census Return. It will lie observed that there is an increase of 856 since the return of 1878, which is accounted for by an omission of 720 Urewera. In 1878 their total was put down as 745, but I find upon a careful compilation of their numbers by name that they total up 1,471. This number does not include those members of the tribe living at Waikaremoana, Runanga, and Te Putere. The Waikaremoana and Te Putere people should appear in Captain Preece's return, as arranged ; and the Runanga people in that of Major Scannell, in the Taupo District. The difference between the 856 and the 720 is accounted for in this way :in 1878 the Galatea and Ahikereru people were shown in one total; in this return they are separately designated under their different tribal names. The total of the other tribes in this district is 2,019, being a decrease of 21 since 1678. The total, however, in the two districts allotted to me is 3,631, as against that of 1878—viz., 2,775. It will be observed, on reference to the return, that the Urewera are the only tribe where the children are as numerous as the adults; in most of the other tribes the adults exceed the children. So far as my experience goes, the same is the lamentable fact amongst tribes in other parts of the island. The Urewera appear to be the exception, and, for the want of a better reason, I can only attribute it to their keeping more aloof from civilization and its temptations than most other tribes. This probably may not be so much from choice as from compulsion, through the difficulties of perambulation in their country, and to and from it. Many of these people are never seen in our settlements, consequently they are not exposed to the same temptations for wasting their substances as those that are more frequent visitors to our townships, many of whom are addicted to strong drink, which necessarily brings with it neglect of their offspring, and also injures their own constitutions. Generally, the fruits of their industry, which should be devoted to procuring clothing for themselves and children, are wasted in finding food and drink for large meetings, few of which ever result in any benefit to themselves or others. I cannot but think that these meetings are one of the main causes of the decrease of the Native race, as the majority of those who attend have to put up with sleeping in the open air, or in erections which are not much better when compared, to their warm whare-punis. There has been no epidemic amongst these Natives this year. The Ngatiawa seem to have suffered most within the last six months by deaths, no less than seven of their number having died during that time. The principal chief who died here since the last census was Apanui—a great man in bis day; one of those old warriors, of whom very few are now left. There

5

have been no violent deaths amongst the Natives of this district during the past year, but one accidental death has occurred in the case of a half-caste girl, about eleven years of age, who was severely burnt, which caused her death. The Natives during the past year have been less addicted to drink, consequently fewer of them have been wasting their time about the township. Whakatane possesses most half-castes, there being no less than 32 there; Opotiki comes next with 22 R. S. Bush, Opotiki, 23rd April, 1881. Resident Magistrate.

No. 8. Major Soannell, R.M., Taupo, to the Undee-Seobetaet, Native Department. SlE,— Armed Constabulary (" B " Division Office), Taupo, 1-lth April, 1881. In compliance with instructions contained in Circular No. 14, dated Native Office, "Wellington, 9th February, 1881, I have the honor to forward the accompanying census of the Maori and half-caste population of the Taupo District on the 4th April, 1881. The returns include all the Natives residing, on the 4th of April, within the boundaries of the Taupo Resident Magistrate's District, as laid down in the Qaeette of 12th August, 1880, as nearly as could be ascertained, as well as a portion of the Napier and Wairoa District, extending towards Napier to the Mohftka River. A number of Natives not permanently residing in the district, who were attending a Land Court held at Taupo on that date, are also included. They belong to the Wanganui, Urewera, Ngatikahungunu, Ngatiawa, and Ngatimaniapoto Tribes ; portions of the Urewera and King Country are included in the Taupo Resident Magistrate's District, but in the former it would be impossible to get the numbers of the inhabitants, as they would not allow any person to enter their country for that purpose. Those who are shown were travelling through Taupo, and, although their numbers were ascertained, they would not give their names. In and about Tuhua the Natives would not allow the Native Sergeant of the Armed Constabulary, who was collecting the census in that portion of the district, to proceed farther than Titiraupenga; he could only try and get information of the probable numbers from some of the friendly natives. This portion is, therefore, only approximate, but I believe very close to the true numbers. A similar obstruction was also experienced from the Natives round Tongariro and Ruapehu, but as the greater number wore attending the Lai\d Court at Taupo no real inconvenience was felt. I endeavoured to get the name of each person, so as to make the returns as reliable as possible," and to guard against the same persons being shown more than once, but found it was impossible, owing to the Natives refusing to give their names, about Tuhua, Tongariro, and Ruapehu. It may be, therefore, that as the information in their cases was taken from some Natives who professed to know all the inhabitants, some slight mistakes may have been made as to numbers, and that the returns are not as rigidly exact as they might be, but I do not think any large errors have been made. When the last census of the Maori population of this district was taken, it included, I think, only those immediately residing round the Lake, leaving out the comparatively populous centres of Tuhua, Ilotoaira, and the country round Ruapehu and Tongariro, as well as the portions north of Uranui. A comparison, therefore, with the present numbers, to show the increase or decrease since, is not possible ; but a reference to the returns, showing the number of adults (excluding those who are not permanently living in the district), and the proportion of the children will load at once to the conclusion that a great decrease is taking place. Since my first arrival in the district in 1869, a very noticeable decrease in the population has taken place, principally among the children —attributable, no doubt, to want of nourishing food, exposure and neglect, and very probably also to congenital causes. No epidemic has taken place that lam aware of. About ten years ago, when small-pox was prevalent in other parts of the colony, the Taupo Natives escaped, and when measles appeared very few of them were attacked. No deaths from either of these causes took place. During the whole time that I have been in the district the Natives about the northern and eastern shores of the Lake have barely cultivated sufficient food for their own consumption, and some years (particularly 1880) not even enough for that. They do not grow wheat, oats, or maize—only potatoes, a few kumara, and perhaps a few pumpkins. They own neither sheep nor cattle, but have a few very inferior horses, and some gaunt, half-starved pigs running half wild over the country On the southern and western shores of the Lake the land is of a better quality, and the Natives cultivate wheat, oats, maize, as well as potatoes, melons, kumara, and pumpkins. They grind their wheat at Tokano, at a mill erected by themselves many years ago, but which, during the Hauhau disturbances, and Te Kooti's raids from 18G5 to 1869, was allowed to fall into decay It was put into repair by the Government in 1872 or 3, and is now in good working order under Native supervision. They own some sheep at Tokano and round Tongariro and Ruapehu, and sell the wool every year to Europeans. They have also a fair stock of horses and some cattle. These Natives, although very obstructive to, and jealous of, Europeans, seem much more industrious and live better than those at the northern end, who have been brought more into contact with Europeans. The Natives in Taupo are, generally speaking, a sober people. During the last and present Land Courts held here instances of drunkenness were, taking the circumstances into consideration, comparatively few, and no quarrelling, either among themselves or with Europeans, took place. The land about Taupo is being gradually leased by Europeans. The rents received may be used by the Natives in procuring better clothing and food, and perhaps induce them to cultivate more for sale. Their produce, such as it is, is freely purchased by Europeans here at prices much higher than those ruling on the coast—oats ranging from 7s. to 10s. per bushel, potatoes selling freely at £8 per ton; but even with these inducements the supply is very small, and mostly from the Tokano end of the Lake. I have, &c, The Under-Secretary, Native Office, D. Scanneh, Wellington. Resident Magistrate.

No. 9. Captain Pobteb, G-isborne, to the llndee-Seceetaky, Native Department. Sib,— Native Office, Gisborne, 22nd April, 1881. In compliance with the instructions of the Hon. Mr. Rolleston, contained in Circular No. 14 of the 9th February last, I have now the honor to furnish result of the Maori census of this district as comprised within the boundaries of the Cook County The return is to the 4th April, 1881, and may be deemed as thoroughly authentic, even more so than anticipated by me. Referring to the tabulated summaries herewith, a total of all ages and sexes is shown as 4,161, divisible by the two principal tribes of—Ngatiporou : Adults, 2,124 ; children, 859 : total, 2,983 ; —and Kongowhakaata: Adults, 819 ; children, 330 : total, 1,149. In comparing the total of the present census with that furnished by me three years ago on the 30th May, 1878, as up to April of that year a deficiency of 305 is shown, the total being 4,466 as against 4,161 for the present year. This difference is, however, not attributable to the death-rate but to the migration of the tribes, particularly the Ngatiporou, who will be found scattered in various parts of the country; also to the hapu of Ngatikohatu, resident at Te Eeinga, having been included in the former census of this district, and who will now be included in that collected by Mr. Preece, Wairoa, which I estimate at about 100. In the final completion of the tribal returns I should point out that the Whanauapanui tribe, resident between Cape Eunaway and Opotiki, which will be shown in Mr. Bush's returns, is a sub-tribe of Ngatiporou ; also the hapus resident at Mataora and Kennedy's Bay are emigrants from that tribe. With regard to the question of increase or decrease so far as refers to this district, it would appear, by the comparison above mentioned, to be almost at a standstill; but the undoubted tendency is to decrease, and there is one very remarkable circumstance worthy of note, that in hapus further removed from civilisation and European influences the proportion of children is much greater than when brought into contact with such influences. The general health of the tribes has been fairly even, free from any remarkable epidemics, excepting last year, when low fever spread among the tribes residing near Europeans in Poverty Bay and Tologa Bay Districts, by which a number of all ages were carried off, chiefly owing to their ignorance of the proper curative measures for such disease, those adopted by them having the tendency to kill rather than cure—the great specific being immersion of the patient in cold water in cases of fever, as in many other diseases. The vouchers for the necessary expenses incurred in collecting this census will be forwarded to Wellington by the first opportunity I have, &c, Tiios.

No. 10. Captain Peeece, Native Agent, Napier, to the Uiodee-Secbetaey, Native Department. Sir,— Native Office, Napier, 7th May, 1881. In accordance with the instructions contained in your Circular of the 9th of February. No. 14, I have the honor to forward herewith census papers for the Napier and Wairoa Native Districts. Napier District. In this district I am unable to compare the numbers at each settlement with former census, owing to the fact that hitherto the Natives have opposed the collection of a Native census, and returns sent in have been a total of the numbers, without showing where they reside, and it is indeed very difficult to ascertain their proper residences owing to their migratory habits. The census of 1878 showed a total of 1,690 ; in the present census I have taken down the names of individuals, and find a total of 1,635, but I have ascertained that 280 Natives belonging to this district were away at Wairarapa and Taupo ; this would bring the total to 1,915, from which has to be deducted 193 —namely, Natives included in the Wairoa District last census, visitors from Urewera and East Coast, and children from other districts attending schools, leaving a total of 1,722 belonging to this district against 1,690 in last census. I purpose having the names collected entered into a tribal register for future reference; by this mode the census returns hereafter can be easily checked. The returns are fairly correct, although numbers shown may not be permanent residents at the several Icaingas. Wairoa District. This return shows 2,186, to which is to be added 115 taken in the Napier census, who were previously enumerated in this district, making a total of 2,291 against 2,530 in Dr. Ormond's return of 1878; but no doubt the number shown at Nuhaka and Nukutaurua in the said return was over-estimated. Formerly the names of Natives were not taken, but merely the numbers at each Icainga, and on comparing these of last census with those of present I find there must have been an error in the number of men at the above settlements. In other Icaingas the present census practically agrees with the former. I think, however, that there has been a slight decrease in the numbers of the whole district. The returns for Wairoa have been carefully collected by Mr. J T. Large, who has had considerable experience in this duty, having acted in the capacity of sub-numerator in Gisborne in 1874 and 1878. There has been no epidemic amongst the Natives of these districts during the past year. A number of deaths have occurred from consumption and other causes, but principally from consumption.

t enclose herewith a census of Ngatikowhatu, who reside at Te Reinga; these Natives belong to the Poverty Bay District, but I was unable to furnish Captain Porter with the numbers before he completed his return. I would suggest that they be included in the Poverty Bay returns. I have, &c, The Under-Secretary, Native Department, Wellington. George A. Preece, R.M.

No. 11. Mr. E. S. Matiksell, Native Agent, Wairarapa, to the Undeb-Seceetaey, Native Department. Sib, — Greytown, Wairarapa, 28th April, 1881. I have the honor to forward you herewith the Maori census for. this district, showing a resident population of 744 souls and 333 visitors from other districts. A list of these was taken on the night of the 4th instant. They have since returned to their respective districts. The last census showed a population of 714; the increase is accounted for by the Forty-mile Bush Natives being included in this return to the number of 44, making a total of 700 Wairarapa Maoris. There are about fifteen absent at Kaikoura, Otago, and Poverty Bay, which will bring the numbers to about the same as in 1878. This return is as nearly accurate as it is possible to obtain one of a Maori population. There may have been some inadvertently omitted. There have been, in comparison with previous years, few deaths. Some Teainrjas —Hurunuiorangi, Kaitekateka, and Oahanga —show a larger average of children than heretofore. The numbers since the last census was taken have not decreased. The old men, with the exception of about ten, have died, leaving a healthy and robust population in existence. A census taken fifteen years ago gave in figures nearly 1,000. The decrease, about 250 in that period, is attributable to the ravages, seven years ago, of typhoid fever and pulmonary diseases, caused by exposure and irregular mode of living during the height of the Hauhau fanaticism, and also from some having joined in the West Coast war and being killed.

No. 12. Mr. W J Butleb, Native Office, "Wellington, to the TTndee-Seceetaey, Native Department. Sib,— Wellington, 30th April, 1881. I have the honor to forward herewith a return of the Native population in the Wellington, Hutt, and Porirua Districts, as taken by me in accordance with the instructions contained in your Circular No. 14 of the 9th February, 1881. I have the honor to report that to the best of my belief there has been a slight increase since the last census was taken. The Natives generally are healthy, and there has been no serious disease or epidemic among them. The majority appear to be living in comfortable circumstances. In conclusion, I deem it my duty to report that the work of enumeration of the population in the Porirua District was obstructed by the chief Wi Parata Kakakura, so that I was unaßle to obtain a nominal return as I had at first intended. I have, &c, "W J BITTLEB, The Under-Secretary, Native Department, Wellington. Enumerator.

No. 13. Mr. E. Paeeis, New Plymouth, to the TTkdee-Secbetaey, Native Department. Sib,— New Plymouth, 18th April, 1881. In accordance with instructions contained in your letter of 9fch February last, I have now the honor to forward the Maori census return for my district. By it you will perceive a considerable decrease in numbers since last census was taken in 1878, as follows:— Census, 1878 .. .. .. .. 3,440 Census, 1881 .. .. .. .. 2,801 Decrease .. 639 To this add. — Wanganuis residing at Parihaka, and not included in last census .. 174 And Awakino Natives who were not included in this district last census .. ~ .. 23 836 Deduct prisoners in South Island, say .. .. 310 Decrease .. .. 526 I have no particular epidemic to report; but the old enemy to the race, consumption in its different forms, is their great scourge.

The overcrowding at Parihaka also causes a more than average mortality, especially among the children. It will be seen by my return that over 1,300 Natives live there, of whom only about ninety properly belong to the place. The difference of females over males may bo accounted for by the absence of 310 males in prison, South ; but the paucity in numbers of children is striking. I have, &c, E. Paebis, Enumerator, Taranaki and Molau District. The Under-Secretary, Native Department, Wellington.

No. 14. Mr. James Booth, E.M., Wanganui, to the Under-Seceetaey, Native Department. Sic,— Native Office, Wanganui, 22nd April, 1881. I have the honor in reply to your Circular No. 14, of 9th February, 1881, to forward herewith ray census returns of the population of the Wanganui District taken on and about the 4th April, 1881. The district which, for census purposes, I have named the Wanganui District, embraces the whole of the river settlements, the Murimotu and Patea (inland), and the coast line from the Turakina River to the Waitotara River. It will be noticed that there is a considerable discrepancy between the accompanying returns and those sent in by Mr. E. W" Woon, in 1878. Mr. Woon's district (Upper Wanganui) was the same as that shown in my census sheets Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4, which in my returns show 1,232 as against 1,096 in the 1878 returns. In explanation of this discrepancy, I may state that of those returned in 1878, there are now permanently resident at Parihaka, 150; at Murimotu, 175 ; at Taupo, 20 ; at Waikato, 70; at Eangitikei, 32 ; at Waitara, 10; at various other places out of the district, say, 40 : making a total of 497 With reference to the Murimotu residents, they were returned by me in 1878 as being in that district; and I find that they were also returned by Mr. Woon as members of the Wanganui Tribes. A good many also in the 1878 return have been returned in two several places of residence, and occasionally one man appears under two or three different names. These mistakes are liable to occur under the most careful supervision, as when Natives are willing to give the required information, they not unfrequently try to swell up the numbers in their own particular kaingas to give them greater importance. You will perceive that, after allowing for absentees, there is still a deficiency of 177 in the total numbers. With reference to sheet No. 8, I cannot guarantee its accuracy The principal Natives of Euiopuanga and Patea were absent at Taupo at the Land Court. Those remaining at the kaingas would not supply any information to the enumerator; but as I had a very careful list taken in 1878 this was checked over, and an estimate was made which is pretty nearly correct, though not absolutely reliable. lam not aware of any prevailing disease amongst the Natives of this district; but one thing seems to be certain, which you will perceive on reference to the tables, that, owing to the great disparity between adults and children, nearly four to one, the tribes in this district must surely decrease more and more rapidly year by year. I find that comparatively few children are born, and that of those few a great number die at one and two years of age. I have, &c, The Under-Secretary Native Department, Wellington. James Booth, R,M.

No. 15. Mr. B. Waed, R.M., Marton, to the Undee-Seceetaey, Native Department. Sic,— Eesident Magistrate's Office, Marton, 30th April, 1881. I have the honor, in compliance with your Circular Letter No. 14, dated the 9th February last, to forward herewith a census taken of the Maoris in my district, from Marton to Waikanae and its surroundings. I find on the 4th instant there was a Maori population in the district of 1,321 persons. I observe that in the year 1878 the census taken for the same district showed a population of 1,538, thus leaving a decrease of 217 I account for this as representing what I believe to be the number who have temporarily left this part of the North Island and were attending some sittings of the Native Land Court at Cambridge, and others who are visiting at Taupo. I believe the population to be just as it was three years ago. Many of the older people have died, but I think the young children quite keep up the number. I am glad to be able to report that no epidemic has visited them since the last census was taken. In fact, on the whole, I believe the Maoris in my district are healthier than they were: they are steadier in their habits, work harder, and are better clothed and fed. 1 have noticed an improvement in their dwelling-houses, and, being brought continually in contact with their European neighbours, they are to a great extent abandoning their Maori habits and customs, and assuming those of the Pakelia. I find, as a rule, those Natives who have to work hard for their money, and so know its value, are not so ready to spend it for strong drink. I am disposed to think that the great commercial depression this colony has been subjected to, and which has to a certain extent affected the Maoris, has caused them to "turn to " and work for their living, and with most beneficial results as to their habits and health. The fact of the Maori parents being healthier has its good effect on the children who are born to them. I think there are signs of improvement in the religious condition of the Maoris. I am informed that since the last census was taken the Church of England, the Wesleyan Methodists, and the Lutheran Church have been stirring

themselves in the direction of sending out missionaries among the Maoris of New Zealand, and already there are indications that their labour has not been in vain. I venture to express a hope that the various religious bodies in the colony will give the Maori religious question their very earnest attention. I refer to this matter in this report as lam decidedly of opinion that a religious and moral improvement in the Maoris will have a beneficial effect on their social habits and condition, and tend much to prolong the existence of the race. I have, &c, KOBEET "WaKD, T. W Lewis, Esq., Under-Secretary, Resident Magistrate. Native Department, "Wellington.

No. 16. Mr. A. Mackat, Native Commissioner, Nelson, to the Ujstdee-Secketakt, Native Department. Sib,— Government Buildings, Nelson, 30th April, 1881. I have the honor to forward herewith the result of the census taken of the Maori population in the South and Stewart Island for the past triennial period. The total population residing at the various settlements is 2,061, and consists of 1,121 males and 940 females. The return for 1878 showed a total population of 2,160. The present census shows an apparent decrease of 99, but these figures do not fully represent the deficiency, the actual difference being 147, the population having been augmented by the return of 115 Natives from the Upper "Waitaki, not included in the census of 1878. The decrease is attributable to three causes : 1. The excess of deaths over births ; 2. The removal of a large number of Natives to the North Island ; 3. The exclusion in the present census of halfcastes residing amongst the European population. The number of births since 1878 amount to 175 and the deaths to 253. The only epidemic that prevailed was a type of low fever that occurred at Little River in 1879, and caused 23 deaths. The remainder of the deaths have been caused mostly by pulmonary complaints and other diseases, a few by accident, and some through old age. The largest proportion of deaths have taken place in the Canterbury District, the number being 118 out of a population of 534 since 1878, while the births only amount to 58. The present enumeration shows an increase of 67, but that is attributable to the return of a number of Natives from the Upper Waitaki. In Nelson, Marlborough, and Westland, the deaths amount to 71 and the births to 43 ; and in the Southern Districts the births were 74 and the deaths 64. This is the only district in which a healthy condition is exhibited. Another noticeable and interesting feature in the present census is the equality of the sexes amongst the non-adult population, but the same disparity still exists amongst the adults, and is more noticeable in some settlements than others. This condition of affairs affects the increase of the people to a greater degree than may be supposed, as the young men are prevented by olden customs from obtaining wives from families in other places who are unrelated to them or unconnected by tribal ties, and their habits and mode of life preclude the possibility of intermarrying with Europeans. I have, &c, Alexandee Maceat, The Under-Secretary, Native Department, "Wellington. Native Commissioner.

Ko. 17 Mr. S. DEiGnTON, 3J,M., Chatham Islands, to the TTndeb-Secketaey, Native Department. Sir,— Waitangi, Chatham Islands, 10th May, 1381. In accordance with instructions contained in your communication of 9th February (received here on 19th April), I have the honor to forward the enclosed census of the Native population of the Chatham Islands, including Morions and half-castes. There is a slight increase in the Maori population since last census, and 15 deaths from different causes, viz., two men, four women, six Morions, and one Kanaka. The general stale of health is, on the whole, very good, the only complaint of any importance being influenza. The Natives here are all in very good circumstances, having good substantial European houses, and instead of, as formerly, living all together in the pa, they each have their separate dwellings in different parts of the Island, and seldom assemble together at Waitangi except at shearing time. They have a large shearing-shed at that place, which is also used by the Europeans for storing wool and goods. I cannot say for certain what amount of sheep the Maoris own, but I should say at a rough estimate, about 10,000 or 12,000, that amount being divided among about ten owners. They have also a good many horses and a few working bullocks and other cattle. Notwithstanding the Maoris here, with exception of three, are followers of Te Whiti, they are upon the most friendly terms with the Europeans, and I am happy to say have almost entirely given up drinking, which vice used formerly to be very prevalent on the Island. I have, &c, The Under-Secretary, Native Office, "Wellington. S. Deighton, E.M.
