SIR GEORGE GREY'S ADDRESS TO THE HOSTILE

NATIVES OF TAURANGA, ON AUG. 6, 1864.

At present I am not acquainted with the bouodaries or
extest of your lands, or with the claims of individuals or
tribes. What I shall therefore do is this : 1 shall order
that settlements shall at once be assigned to you as far as
possible in such localities as you may select, which shall
be award by crown grants to yourselves and your chil-
d:at When this has been done and the boundaries of
your lands have been annwtaieed, I will inform you in what
manlier the residue of your lands will be dealt with ; but as
it is right in some measure to mark our sense of the ho-
oourable manner in which you conducted hostilities, neither
robbing nor murdering, but respecting the wounded, I
promise you that in the ultimate settlement of your lands,
the amount taken shall not exceed one-fourth of the whole
land. And in order that you may, without delay, again be
placed in a position which will enable you to maintain your-
selves, as soon as your future location has been decided,
seed potatoes and the means of settling on your lands will
be given you. I Dow speak to the friendly natives. I
thank you warmly for your good oondact under circum-
stances of great difficulty. I will consider in what manner
you shall be rewarded for your fidelity. In the meantime,
in any arrangements which may be made about the lands
of your tribe, your rights will be scropulously respected.

EITRAORDTHARY DEATH OF A YOUNO LADY.-
A most nivstenons and melancholy event has this week no-
muted at Brighton. It seems that on Tuesday emetic.' last,
about six or seven o'clock, a young lady named Isabella
Natjor, the daughter of Mr. Naylor, York-plaos, Brighton,
loftier home, apparently in excellent health and spirits.
She did not, however, return at night, and some alarm was
coosequentlr felt for her safety, as it was well known she
had suffered from site, and it was feared that something
might bare happened to her. As she did not return on
Tuesday night, information was given to the police in
Brighton. and a handbill, stating the case, and giving a
description of her, was issued. Sergeant Baldwin, who is '
*tattooed at Prestno, received information that there was
a young woman in the oeighbourboodof Presto° and Patcham
who was acting very strangely. Marisa been informed that
a young lady was missing from Brighton, he at once con-
cluded that it was the same person, and with five or six
other men he went out to make a search. The whole
neighbourhood was completely scoured, and not a pond or
well, or any place which was likely to conceal her, was passed
without a minute examinatioo. The bilk were searched,
and presently a portion of female attire was discovered,
and Sergeant Bildwin kept his lantern on, in order
to give the unfortunate young lady an opportunity of
retracing her atm" if she had chosen to do so, to • place
of safety. Instead. however, of approaching the light,
it is supposed that she actually ran away from it,
and completely undressed herself, as she did so, for, as
a closer search was made, the whole of a woman's gar.
meets were found at different places on the hill. Viii
search wa, kept up till late, but co signs of the missing
perms could be found. Sergeant Baldwin then proceeded
to Brighton to communicate with her friends, and at day-
break again made a search over the hills. The last pieces
of attire which were found were a pair of boots, a pair of
stockings, drawers, and • chemise, and these were nearly
half • mile from where the first Wisp wen found. The
search was most perseveringly carried on, sad ultimately
1 the body, which was identified as that of Miss Naylor, was
found quite naked sad dead in • ploughed field between
Patcham and Steamer-park. She was lying on her back,
and must have run fully a mile after she had completely
undreamed herself. The deceased was 28 years of age.
