                                     Pleiades OU SEVEN STARS.
   Mei tenei kupu  ra, kaore kau he
tikanga o  tena moni, he  whakaaro
atu kia koe, kua kaumatua  koe, mo
tango tena moni hei oranga mou. A,
no te rironga mai o taua moni, katahi
ka mohiotia, he whakakore i te tikanga
wehewehe  i waenganui i a ia, me te
Kawanatanga;   ina pea, kaore hoki e
peneitia te moni  Penihana, e  hoatu
ana  ki etehi o nga Rangatira Maori o
te Motu nei, ka taka nei ki to Tawhiao,
he  penei me  enei kua korerotia ako
nei te tikanga,  ka tika ano kia kiia e
Tawhiao, be "Huu" ta raua mahi mo
 na, a te Iwi mohio-hanga ki te raupeka
a tenei Iwi a te Pakeha.
   Tenei ano etehi mahi a te Pakeha
kua kitea iho nei, tena hoki pea e hoa
ma  kua kite iho koutou, he tino mohio
mai ano pea no te Pakeha, he Iwi kuri,
rawa tenei Iwi te Maori, me whaka-
rereke  ano te ahua.   Kaore ahau e
taute; mehemea e mahi atu aria te Pa-
keha i ana mahi ki a ia ano. Engari
pea, na te tangohanga mai o te moni
a te Pakeha e Tawhiao, i penatia ai te
mahi  a  te Pakeha.  Te  whakaaro
marire iho ranei, e hara i te mea tono
atu e Tawhiao, tena moni  Penihana,
engari na ratou nei ano i homai. Heoi
ano i korerotia ake ai, ko enei mahi a
te Pakeha e mau nei i roto i ta ratou
Nupepa, (Obsever.) Ko Wiremu Hone
Kiiti nei, raua ko Wiremu Pomawhira,
nga tangata mahi o taua Nupepa.
  Ko taua Nupepa no te 21 o nga ra
o Mei, o te tau ka mahue nei, kei roto
tonu i tana Nupepa, e mau  ana te
ahua o te Karimana rana ko Tawhiao,
e tu ana a te Karimana, kua maunu
te Potae,  e totoro atu  ana  tetehi o
nga ringaringa ki te potae o Tawhiao
kua pakaru, e tu ana hoki a Tawhiao
rereke  noa atu te ahua, kei tetehi ti-
no Taurekareka tonu te ahua,.  He

ko te Tarau kua pakarukaru noa iho,
he  papaki te  tou o  te Tarau, tona
roroa na o nga maikuku o nga waewae,
kotahi o nga ringa e pupuni  ana i
te putiki moni, e ,£240. pauna. Ko-
tahi o nga ringa e hoatu una i tana
potae ki a te Karimana, ko taua po-
tae o  Tawhiao  nei—he (Paipa puta-
nga ahi nei te ingoa, e ai ki te korero 
a taua Nupepa,  ko nga  kupu tenei
i raro i to rana turanga (Ko te ahua
tenei o te takanga iho o nga Tangata;

  (How  arc the might fallen Tawhiao
accepts a pension and resign his crown
i. e, his Stovepipe.)
   E hoa ma,  i enei korero e korerotia
atu  nei e ahau ki  a koutou, e kore
ahau e kii penei— Na wai tenei mahi I
mo Tawhiao ?   Heoi ano te Iwi nana
tenei mahi ki taku mahara, na te Iwi
Pakeha  e noho nei i Nui Tireni. E
penei  tonu ana te whakaatu  ake o
tena mahi a te Pakeha, kua maunu te
Potae o te Karimana,  he (Huree,) I
|  Through  this word of the Govern-
 ment we dont want  any consideration
 from you for the money, but as you are
 old you had better accept this money to
 keep you. But  when  he received it
' then we see it is to break the harrier
 between Tawhiao and the Government,
 for an instance the pensions which the
i other chiefs received is not treated in
! the same way as Tawhiao. Therefore
' Tawhiao was quite justified in saying
 that this was a ( Hu ) for him. What
' can you expect from the European
 nation who are used to the way of flat-
i tery to gain their cause.

 ' Here  is another work of the Euro-
 peans the Maori nation must be nothing
 but clogs. I would not had  said any
 thing if the Europeans kept their criti-
 cisms to them-selves. But perhaps its
 through Tawhiao taking the money of
 the Europeans, but however Tawhiao
 did not ask them lor the money. They
 (the Europeans) offered it, why I spoke
 about this is through the work of the
 European's, in their News  Papers?
 Printed, and Published, by the  Pro-
 prietors, William  John Geddis, and
 William Bromfield.





   Which  we see in the Observer Paper,
of the 21th May 1892. Mr Cadman
and Tawhiao, Mr Cadman is standing
with  his hat raised and  one   hand
stretched out to take Tawhiao's  hat
which  is full of holes. Tawhiao who '
is like one of the  lowest  loafers or
paupers with a torn blanket over him
his trousers all torn and  patched  in
the seat and long toe nails with one
hand  holding a bag of money  £240
pounds, and the other hand giving his
hat to Mr Cadman which is mentioned
in the Observer a Stovepipe, and the 
words  under ?—





                                                  
                                                  I
  How  are the mighty fallen Tawhiao
accepts a pension and resigns his crown 
(i e ) his stove pipe.
  Now  my friends I will not be doubt-
full in saying that the European nation
who  are living at New Zealand, are the
instigators of this work against Tawhiao |
This work of the European shows, that 
Mr Cadman  has taken his hat off to I
hip " hip " hurrah, at Tawhiao's crown
falling while he is native minister, and
as this is the first money that Tawhiao 
I tena nana ki te takanga o te karauna
I o Tawhiao, i te takiwa i Minita ai ia
 Waihoki ko Tawhiao katahi ano ia ka
 whiwhi i te moni, na te Karimana, i
 hoatu hei hoko  kakahu  mona,  kia
, mahue ai te Paraikete papaki o Ta-
 whiao, me uma Tarau pakaru, a, kua
 hoatu hoki e ia tona Karauna, kia te
 Karimana, kua pakaru nei hoki taua
I Karauna, koia ra mana kua kiia nei,
 he Paipa-putanga ahi nei te ingoa o te
potae o Tawhiao. I runga pea i te nui
 rawa o nga moni a te Karimana, i ho-
 atu nei ma  Tawhiao, i hoatu ai te
 Karauna o Tawhiao, hei utu mo aua
 moni i (Huree ai,) a te Karimana,
 i peneitia ai hoki e te Pakeha.
   Koia  ano i tika ai te ki iho " Au
 mahi ra," e te Pakeha, kei enei take
 rawa a te Pakeha i tika ai te mohio-
 tanga iho ki taua moni Penihana nei, i
 hanga ai e te Pakeha, me pena te ahua
 o te Kiingi Maori. Na reira i tika ai te
 kupu a Tawhiao. Mutu tonu ia ki tena
i moni, no te mea i mahi whakapati-
 pati a te Karimana ki a ia, hei pena-
I tanga ma ona Iwi Pakeha. Koia i ma-
' haratia ake ai, me whakahoki atu te
: moni a te Karimana, i homai nei kia
 Tawhiao, e £56 6. 0. Na tana moni
 koia ranei i whiwhi ai a Tawhiao i te
 moni ? E tika aua ra, me whakahoki-
 atu te moni a te Karimana.

   Heoi ra e nga Iwi:— Kei whea ianei
 he huarahi atu mo te Maori, e tata ai
 ki o tatou hoa Pakeha, e noho i te mo-
 tu nei. Akuanei pea, ka mea o tatou
 hoa te Pakeha, he whakapae tenei naku
 ki a ratou e hara ia ia  tenei mahi
mo   Tawhiao, ae pea heoi ano ra, ta-
 ku i kite iho no roto i te Pukapuka,
e piri ana te whakahua na te Pakeha
i mahi, r hara nei i te Maori taua ma-
hi ki a tika ai te ki ake na nga Mao-
ri o to Motu nei taua mahi.   Heoti
tonu na te Pakeha taua mahi tona Tu-
muaki nei ko te Kawanatanga.
  Na e hoa ma e nga Iwi Maori e
noho  nei i Aotearoa me te Waipou-
namu, He  aumihi tonu kei roto i ahau
mo  koutou kei whakaaro mai ra, to ta-
tou hoa te Kawanatanga, e korero atu
ana ahau  kia in, kaore. Engari kia
tatou ano ki nga Iwi Maori, o te Motu
nei, nana ano hoki i mahi mai i tetehi
mahi Tau-rekareka, mo toku Kiingi, i
hua atu ai tetehi kupu maku i aku ku-
pu kua mutu ake nei; Heoi ra ko taku
whakaaro ia ko tatou ano, i runga i te
ahua o tatou Tupuna, tuku iho ana kia
tatou ki nga. Uri e ora nei.
  Na ko tenei e hoa ma ka whakaatu
atu nei ahau ki a  koutou i etehi ro-
ngo rongo e ahu mai ana i nga whe-
nua nunui << te ao. ara i Ranana, he
aha koa te ki ai to tatou hoa te Kawa-
natanga, kaore he mana whakahaere it
Ingarangi, ki nga mea o Nui Tireni,
i te moa kua tukua noatia mai te maua

natanga, e noho nei, he ahakoa, i te

has ever had in his life, which Mr Cadman
gave to him to buy clothes so that Tawhiao
may  cast away his ragged blanket and toru
trousers, and Tawhiao  has given his crown
(i e ) stove-pipe which  is in  a  dilapidated
state to Mr Cadman. Perhaps it is through
the large sum of money which Mr Cadman
gave to Tawhiao which made him hurrah, as
Tawhiao  had to give his crown to pay  for
the said money.












  I am  quite right to say who is to compete
with  the Europeans.  We   can clearly see it
is through Tawhiao taking the pension that
made  the Europeans criticise the Maori King.
Tawhiao is quite right in Baying I am finished
with that money. No  wonder Mr Cadman
flattered Tawhiao to take the money so that
his European friends may have an opportunity
to criticise Tawhiao. Therefore, Mr Cadmans
money  which he gave  to Tawhiao £56 5s
shall be returned to him. Perhaps its through
that money that Tawhiao has money enough.
  Then  oh nations where is the road for the
Maori's to be close to our European  friends
who  are residing on  this Island.  Perhaps
our European friends think I am condemning
them falsely about this work against Tawhiao.
But enough.  I got it out of the News-papers
of the Europeans,  therefore it must be the
work  of the Europeans and  their heads is
the Government.









  Now  friends the Maori nations who  are
residing  on  these  Islands  Aotearoa   and
Waipounamu.    There is always greetings in
me towards you. Our friend the Government
must not think I am speaking to him, no but
to  ourselves  the  Maori   nation  of  these
Islands. It is through  their low unmanly
work against my King  that made me  say
a  few words in  that road Enough.  My
greatest thoughts  are ourselves the image
of our ancestors which is handed down to
us their offspring Enough,






  Now  friends I will show you some news
which Came  from a great land, that is from
London.  No  matter  what our  friend the
Government may  say that England has no
authority to conduct the affairs of New Zealand
as  England   had  given  the power  and
authority to the Government of Now Zealand
years ago. Never mind  as we all know that
the  Maori  nation  are all in dark  trouble,
but England  still hears her regards to the
Maori nation of New  Zealand through the
words of the Queen, of the treaty of Waitangi
which I have  already explained to you in the
paper oi September  and  October  last
| ko  Ingarangi,  koi te noho  aroha  tonu
 mai ki nga Iwi Maori o noho noi i Niu Tireni,
 i runga ano ia i nga kupu a to Kuini o te
 Tiriti o Waitangi, otira, kua whaka marama-
 tia atu ano ia ki a koutou nga kupu a Kawa-
 na Koa Paraone ki te Tiuka o Niu Kahera i te
 Pepa o Hepetema me Oketopa kua mahue nei.

        KOIA TENEI,

 kato ko  Ngatimaniapoto, i waenganui, me

 e titiro tonu ana matou  ki te Mana  o ratou |
 Hapu, me  te Mana hoki o ratou Rangatira
 ki te whakaae  ki to whakakahore huki  i
 te hoko. Ko  te paanga o nga Maori o tenei
 whenua;—  He paanga Hapu, ehara i te mea '
 he paanga tangata kotahi, " na runga i aua 
 kupu nei ka tika ano kia kiia,—kua  mohio |

I ki runga  i enei  Motu  i  Aotearoa me te

   Kua whiriwhiri matou nga tangata o te Ka- '
 wanatanga i te raruraru o nga Maori, He mea I
 titiro e matou, ki runga i nga  ritenga Pa-
 keha  anake, e tika ai te titiro o enei mea, e
 mahara nei i roto i nga ngakau o nga Maori
 e he ana  hoki kia tirohia kuaretia atu ratou 
 nga Maori, i runga i nga ritenga Pakeha, ki I
 taku whakaaro, He nui rawa ki a kimihia he
 tikanga, kia titiro atu ai pea nga Maori ki nga
 Pakeha.   Ki  te oti taua mea te whiriwhiri,
 ma reira pea e ahua tika ai te hiahia o te Iwi
 Maori, e whai nei, kia wehe ke ano he Kawa
 natanga mo ratou, e kore ai e eke mai nga he
 a te Pakeha kia ratou.
   (2.) Ko te Kawanatanga  te piringa o te
 Runanga , ko te maori ano hoki e pera tahi
 ana; no mua   ano,   e kore nei e mohiotia
 te timatanga mai, Ara he mea whakatu  ki
 runga ia Hapu, ia Hapu, ko tera ahua Kawa- ,
 natanga. I runga i nga Hapu, o te Kawanata
 nga tawhito, (a,) e mohiotia ana e tatou e he
 ana.  Ki taku  titiro:— te ritenga e Pooti nei,
 nga tangata noa iho, ki a pera me nga tangata
 tika, kaore hoki e iti iho i tenei te kino ki te
 ngakau  o te Maori.
   (3.) Ko  nga Ture  e  uru nei  o tatou.
 Kawanatanga  ki te Paremata o te whenua,
 e kore nei e tika kia eke mai he whakahe
 kia ia. Ka   whakaatu  ahau  inaianei ki te
 kino o to tatou Kawanatanga, i Nui Tireni, e
| nama nei i nga miriona moni i pau noa iho
 nei, kaore nei he tikanga i pau ai.
   (4.) Titiro tatou ki ta tatou kooti whenua
 Maori, me a tatou kooti nunui. Ki ta tatou
 titiro atu, kei te tatu ranei nga ngakau   o
 nga Maori  i aua kooti ?
   (5.) Kei te  mohio  tatou, ki te  kino o
 nga ngakau  o nga  Maori mohio,  ki nga I
 ritenga o tenei mea o te kooti. Kei te mohio '
 nui noa atu to ratou kaha  ki te whiriwhiri
 i enei mea.  10 taea e ratou te whakahe  a •
 tatou kooti whakawa  (Hiwiri,) e whiriwhiri,
 nei i nga mea he.  Ka taea  ranei e tatou to
 whakahe ta tatou (Hupirimi Kooti u whiri-
 whiri nei i nga mea he? i etahi takiwa; Otira
 i aua mea katoa e whakina  ana i nga ra
 katoa to kaha o  to kino ki to peke ki  roto
 i nga ara o te tika, e whakakake ana hoki 
i tatou ki te nui o to tatou mohiotanga   ki !
1 nga mahi Kamura, Mihini, mo era atu mahi
 nunui, moa tatou mahi whakako.
  (6.) Kei te  whakapehapeha  hoki  tatou
 mo  to tatou noho pai, kaore  nei i waiho ki
 raro i tetehi Iwi, me te rite tonu hoki o a tatou
 Ture i taua wa.   E waiho-tia  ana tatou hei 
 Pononga ma  nga Minita, i tahuri nei tetehi
 ringa ki te moumou i a tatou moni, ko tetehi
 ringa ki te maka i te ioka ki > tatou kaki,
I i runga i te mahi ako, i utaina e tatou he
 patu ki  te ringa o  to  whakahere,  engari
I kihai tatou i kuha ki te karo, i nga ritenga
 mo te Iwi. Heoi  na runga i te oati horihori
 i roto i a tatou kooti. Ka ata keri te Tumu-
 aki i nga tuunga o te tika, o to Kawanatanga
 me te Runanga.
