NEW ZEALAND

_

Further papers relating to the affairs of New Zea-
land, presented to Parliament by command of her
Majesty, have been printed. The papers consist of a
number of despatches from New Zealand in regard
to the action at Nukumarn, and some documents on
the proposed formation of the northern New Zealand
island into a Crown colony. There are two de-
spatches by the Colonial Secretary to Sir G. Grey ;
one dated April 24, relating to a proposed Settle-
ments Act, and the other in the following terms :

Copy of a despatch from the Right Hon. Ewd. Cardwell,
M.P., to Governor Sir G. Grey, K. 0.8. :
Downing-street, April 26, 1865.

Sir,—l have received your despatched noted in the margin,
giving an account of the attack made by the rebel natives
upon the camp at Nukumaru, and the repulse of that attack
by Brigadier-General Waddy and the force under his com-
mand. I regret that this attack has been the occasion of so
considerable a loss as that reported by Brigadier-General
Waddy ; but trust that the lesson thus given to the rebels
will have produced a salutary effect, and will have tended
to discourage further efforts on their part.
I am under the disadvantage of not having received the
report you led me to expect upon the military and financial
plans of our advisers ; nor any explanation of the discre-
pancy between your views and those of General Cameron to
which I adverted in my last despatch ; on the contrary, this
discrepancy, still unexplained, has now become more appa-
rent. General Cameron forwards to the Secretary of State
for War a copy of a letter addressed to yourself, in which
he says :

"I would thereby recommend that your Excellency should
apply by the first opportunity for a reinforcement of at least
2,000 men, if, in addition to the occupation of the country
between Whanganui and the Patea, the road between
Tarankai and Whanganui is to be opened, and more land
to be confiscated north of the Waitara, which I understand
to be the plan of the Colonial Government, approved by
your Excellency."
Your own despatches, on the contrary, lead me to con-
clude that the war in Waikato is at an end ; and that the
general feeling of the natives is accurately represented by
Colonel Greer in the following words ;—" The fact is, the
eyes of all Maoridom are on Taranaki ; that is the head-
quarters of their Atu,' or god, and if he cannot drive the
Pakehas into the sea there, I think they will give up, as a
bad bargain, all over this side of the island." You do not
lead me to entertain any doubt that all your measures at
and near Taranaki are taken in subordination to the
general policy of your present advisers, namely,the earliest
possible withdrawal from the colony of the whole of her
Majesty's troops.

You have already learnt from me, and I wish you to un-
derstand beyond all possibility of mistake, that if—l use
the words addressed by Gen. Cameron to Lord de Grey—
"the objects contemplated by the Governor and the Colonial
Government" involve a reinforcement of the force now under
Gen. Cameron's command, for " the protection by Imperial
troops of the different settlements or the occupation of land
taken from the rebels," these objects are not approved by
her Majesty's Government, and will not be carried on by
an imperial force. You are expected to include in the land
taken for settlement no greater an extent than you are pre-
pared to defend with a colonial force, and to undertake no
operations of any kind, whether in the formation of roads,
the extension of settlements, or otherwise, which will ren-
der more distant the time at which the troops of her Ma-
jesty can be withdrawn from the colony.
I understand these instructions to be inperfect accordance
with the views of your advisers, sincerely entertained and
openly professed by them, and formally accepted by the
Assembly. They are the instructions which, on the part of
her Majesty's Government, I convey to you. If, after
this, any extension of settlement shall be adopted in the
colony which is beyond the limit of reasonable security,
and if disastrous consequences shall result, it will be evi-
dent to the colonists that these consequences have flowed
from measures adopted by themselves, with ample warning
of the views and intentions of the Home Government,
after the fulkst expression On their own part of their con-
currence in these views and intentions, and after the
allowance of a sufficient latitude in point of time to render
the withdrawal of the troops safe and right. I request
that, in fixing your boundaries and determining upon the
measures to be pursued in future, you will bring these
observations fully under the consideration of your advisers,
and point out to them the serious responsibility which will
attach to their decision.

It is necessary I should again remind you that the esti-
mates submitted to the Imperial Parliament have been
framed upon the understanding that the arrangement
contemplated in the correspondence between this depart-
ment and the late Colonial Treasurer will be carried into
effect as regards the colonial contribution for any troops of
her Majesty retained in the colony after the Ist of January,
this year ; and that I am expecting to reedy o the report on
this subject, to which I have above referred.
The Secretary of State for War will send no reinforce-
ment to General Cameron, but will repeat the instructions
already given for the withdrawal of five regiments, with as
little delay as possible consistently with the safe execu-
tion of my instructions to you. On your part you will con-
fine your requirements, for the assistance of Gen. Cameron,
within the limits which I have prescribed.-1 have, &c.,
(Signed) EDWARD CARDWELL.
Governor Sir George Grey, K.C.8., Svc., &c.. &c.

WRECK OEF LONDON-BRIDGE.--Yesterday, as a
barge laden with bricks was descending the river on the
ebb tide, the rapidity of the current forced her against one
of the piers of London-bridge. The concussion was so
violent that her bow was stove in, leaving a large aper-
.ture, through which the water rushed so fast that the
pumps were not sufficient to keep her free, and she was
run on shore to the Surrey side, to prevent her sinking.
