The morning was all that could be desired, and it promised a day wherein all the ¥onders and beauties of the route across the Sicrra Nevada mountains could be viewed to the greatest possible advantage. There was a fresh nertherly wind that cleared the atmos- phere and readered distant objects remarkably dis- tinct, and ‘his was remarkable for the voyageur making thetour for the first time, Passing out of the station and skirting the northern end of the city we are scon in the open country, apd one cannot fail to yemark the difference in its appearance from that of the country south of San Francisco. The former presents an appearance more like ou Eastern States, well tilled flelds, with trees is 7,042 feet, and an event not highly probable at present.

Emigrants will throng along ite line and five years hence large and productive farms will be found where now 1s only a wilderness. At the junction we stop to breakfast, fifteen minutes being allowed for snow that meited found superior to many on much older roads in the East and a meal far better than the average of those furnished at railroad statfons, At this point I was fortunate enough to be invited to join the president and superintendent of the road, who, in a special train, were following the regular passenger train, bound to the end of the track with the new com- | of what mancan accomplish than ex: missioners to examine and report upon the recently | work done on this portion of the Central Pacific Railroad.

Following the news of the fall of Nyate Pa, the dis- Pension of the Hauhaus and the general collapse of the rebellion on the east coast, came the welcome in- telligence that Te Koo! himself, who it was feared would succeed in effecting his escape, had died from a bullet wound in tne lungs, which he had received while fieeing from his deserted stronghold. It is a pity that so bloodthirsty a wretch, the prime tnstigator of the Poverty Bay massacre, should have died in so comparatively honorable a manner, butit is something to know that he is num- bered among the things of the past. Such of the Haunaus as managed to escape pur- suit are still wandering about the mountain ranges back of Poverty bay, and it is hoped that they may yet all be captured, The treachery of King Matu- taera is now, however, well established. He has just sent a delegate named Rewl Nga Te Manta- poto to To Pohipi and the leading chiefs at Taupo, asking them to allow the defeated Hauhaus to pass through the Urinera country. As the king hasali along professed himself opposed to the war, thisisa@ clear proof that he has secretly encouraged it, as was suspected. Te Pohipi firmly refused to accede to this request, even though Rewi promised that the king should try and punish the ringleaders in the rebellion. He told Rewi that he had been sup- plied by the government with arms and ammunition, and that he and his subjects would lese their lives rather than allow one of the miscreants to cross the threshqid of his territory. The defeated Hauhans are now therefore between two fires and will probably fall ner inta: the hands of tue colonial forces or of Te ohipt x ‘The government are at their wits’ end to know how to dispose of the 150 prisoners who are now in theirhands, These men iichiy deserve to lose their lives for their part in the horrible massacre at Pov- erty Bay; but the government naturally hesi- tate to consign them all to the hangman. On the other hand, if they are retained as prisoners they may again escape and repeat the hor- Tors of the war that is now happily drawing to a close, Civilization and humanity may protest inst such @ wholesale taking of life; but what other safe course can be pursued? Surely gt is Scarcely a crime to reward these murderous savages and cannibals as they deserve. From the West Coast the most favorable news has been received, and there 18 now every prospect. that the war will soon be over. When the last mail left the rebels were encamped in the pa of Nukumaru, A description of this pa may perbaps be interesting as giving a fair idea of Maori skill in fortification. The pa covers about two and one-half acres of land. It consists of an outer palisading of about fifteen or twenty feet in height, About four feet from this another palisading of split timber, ten feet in height, has been constructed. At the foot of this palisading are open trenches, about six feet wide and eight feet deep, flanked at each end by covered rifle pits and traverses leading to sleeping apartments under- [dew and covered with corrugated iron. The ron was obtained by stripping the roofs off some of the deserted homesteads, Immediately beyond these trenches cross palisadings of very strong split timper are erected throughout the pa. In the left angle of the pa a very strong two story tower, an unusual feature in native fortifications, had been erected, containing no opening for ingress or egress except through underground galleries. ‘This tower is constructed with double rows of strong palisading, the intervening space being rammed with earth; and the second floor is com- posed of strong transverse beams, well rammed to two feet in thickness of earth, Both stories are loopholed. The back of the paand the right flank are protected by a dense bush, ranning down into a precipitous gully. The whares throughout the pa are level with the ground, each being protected with earthworks and palisadings, so that a body of men getting into the first range of rifle pits and trenches would be all killed in attempting the second series of works. The front of the pa was protected by a staging for riflemen, which ran up twenty feet above the palisading. During the siege the rebels were frequently seen fa these stages, running up and down and calling to Major Finnimore to send out all the fat pakehas for them to cook, as the ovens were ready. Colonel Whitmore, having returned to the west coast. at once commenced preparations for taking Nukumaru Pa in the same way that he had taken Nyatepa. Instead of losing his men by attempt- ing to storm the pa, he cleared the country of bush and shrab, and then regularly in- vested the place. The Armstrong guns were brought up and a couple of days’ shelling made the pauntenable and forced the rebels to make a pre- cipitate escape, Only two whites were lost during the operations, but a considerable number of the enemy were killed, although we have no megns of forming a correct estimate. The rebels were at once pursued and driven out of the pa of Ngatastemaru, which they had no time to properly fortify.

Outrages by the Navosa Tribes Upon the Set- ters in Feejee—A White Child Cooked and Eaten—Wholesale Slaughter of Natives—Call by Thakombau for Five Hundred White Volunteers. Sypney, Feb. 27, 1869. The settlers in Zeejee are again in serious danger, im consequence of ‘native troubles.” Last month I many outrages upon whites and his own subjects, more especially for the murder and eating of Mr. Baker and his seven native assistant mis- sionaries, and for the cowardly murder by stealth of the Nawaiga tribe, who had co- operated with him in his campaign against them in the early part of 1868. This expedition has been less successful than that of last year, and has inflamed and emboldened instead of awed the ob- streperous Navosa men. Thakombau has been com- pelled to return to the coast, and in despair of main- taining his authority by his own unaided ex- ertions has made a call for five hundred white volunteers, There are now a thousand or fifteen hundred white settlers in various parts of the Feejee group, whose very existence is dependent to a great extent upon the continuance of the undis- puted sway all over the islands of the Vuna Valu; and it is most probable that many of these will accept his invitation to engage in a grand decisive campaign against the cannivals of the interior. ining the satisfac- over each gratuitously among the white volunteers a large slice of the lands of the Navosa men. If any cap- tives are taken they willbe reduced to a condition of slavery and leased out to planters at extremely moderate rates. A shilling (twenty-five cents) 13 the figure named, the money to be paid to Thakom- bau for the benefit of the Feejeean publicetreasury, Something at any tate must be done soon or the whites must leave the islands, The Navosa men have already begun their work of carnage. Aiter Thakomban had abandoned his last abortive cam- paign they came down to a place called Sagunu, the chief place on the Bar coast west of Vita Levu, where there is a native town and a cotton plantation held by Messss. Burt & Underwood. The attack was intended to be a surprise, but luckily a boy,.who had arisen at daylight to pick cotton, saw them coming and gave the alarm. A palisade had previously been erected in anticipation of an attack, and to this humble forttfication most of the whites and natives betook themselves with ail possi- ble speed. Some, however, discredited the boy’s story, and paid for thelr incredulity with their lives, Two children, three women and thirteen men—seve- ral of the latter being imported South Sea Island la- borers—were killed, and six others were wounded. The Sagunu people, however, soon rallied, killed four or *hely agsgiiants in the town, and following up their of the twaveliers tolowed we 1G dg: scenery | podies of the four men who had fallen in the town. boy were im fact cooked and eaten rignt | and another at Karewarewa, and yn Saturaay, May 1, Bripert, the be~ MCINTYRE. 4 ce lish.
