In my general report on the Canterbury Natives, of the 19th ulto., I stated that the Native Reserves of this Province, taken iiltogether, might fairly be estimated to represent a current value of£G7,ooo. To show how this result was arrived at, I beg to enclose a tabular return, shewing the extent, position, description, and approximate value of each of these Reserves.
