it must surely be that some way exists of removing

the
half-year is so considerable that there is very little
probability of the year's revenue being equal to that
of 1839, and consuquenfly it will fall short of the
estimated revenue, so lliat t he treasurer, unless some
wonderlul change takes place during the present
half-year, will have to meet Perliamentnext session
with a deficit instead of the surplus he anticipated.
The share market during the past "month has
been remarkably `quiet, and the transactions that
have taken place have IxY:11 very limited. The
amount of capital offering for investment at pre-
sent is small, but as holders are not disposed to
submit to any reduction in prices, or anxious to force
sales, no decline has taken place. The news from Eng-
land by the May mail, although showing a great
fall in the value of our securities in the London mar-
ket, has not in any degree affected the prices ruling
here. The half-yearly meetings of the Commercial
Bank, Australian Joint-stock Bank, Australasian
Steam Navigation Company, and Newcastle Coal
and Copper Company will take place at the end of
the month, and should their reports be as favour-
able as they are expected, and their dividends equal
to those declared last half-year, an improvement in
the value of these shares may be looked for.
Government debentures were firm, and termin-
ables due in 1861 have been sold for remittance to
England at 1:2,, per cent. premium and interest.
Those due in 1874 have changed hands at par and
interest. Intorminables are steady, and have been
sold at 981 and interest. City and Sydney deben-
tures have been dealt in at 98.

The following will shovF the amounts of golddust
received from the lVestern, Southern, and Northern
goldfields during the first six months of the years
1859 and 1860 :-1859—Western, 60,522 ounces;
Southern, 50,275 ounces ; Northern, 26,344 ounces.
1860—Western, 62,220 ounces; Southern, 95,096
ounces; Northern, 25,774 ounces. From this state-
ment it will be found that there is an increase of
1,698 ounces, or 21 per cent., on the yield from the
Western goldfields ; but from the Southern, in-
cluding Kiandra, the increase is very large, being
over 44,821 ounces, or 89 per cent. On the return
of the Northern goldfields, however, there is a
slight decrease of 570 ounces, or nearly 2 per cent.
The Customs' revenue collected at the port of
Sydney during the month of .Tune amounted to
£47,154, 17s. 2d. During the corresponding month
of 1859 the receipts were £45,356, 18s. 7d. ; there
is, therefore, an increase on the month of £1,797,
18s. 7d., or nearly 4 per cent. For the half-year
ended the 30th of June, 1859, the Customs' revenue
amounted to £308,039, 10s. 2d. During the same
period of 1860 the duties collected have amounted
to £277,982, 19s. 9d. ; the decrease on the receipts
of the half-year is, therefore, £30,047, 10s. 51, or
before o f thetbe

THE NATIVE WAR IN NEW' ZEALAND.

The correspondent of the Melbourne Herald
writes :
" About daybreak on Wednesday, June 27, a

Brigade, set out from the camp with the big guns,
and took up position on the side of the pah next
the camp. These men bad with them Major Nel-
son, Capt. Richards, of the 40th ; Capt. Seymour
and First Lieutenant Baddiscombe, of the Pelorus ;
and Lieut. M‘Naughten, of the Artillery. Another
party of 150 men was sent round between the pah
and the river, and, leaving a detachment in the
flat, came up in the rear of the pah, on the inland
side. The pah was thus surrounded, so that none
coming out could escape from one force or another.
" The main force in front opened fire with artil-
lery at seven a.ni. ; and, after some firing, effected
a small breach. But the ground was known to be
furrowed with old entrenchments, and a gully in-
tervened between the Artillery and left wing and
the pah. The natives came boldly out on the op-
posite side of the gully, sometimes within a 100
yards, and a steady and busy firing went on. On
the right wing, however, which consisted of the
grenadier company of the 40th and part of the
Naval Brigade, and which overlapped the head of
the gully, a distressing fire was maintained from a
broad ditch, and the order was given to fix bayonets
and charge. The natives, lying down with loaded
guns, started up when the line was with a few
yards; their numbers were great, their gunk. double
barrels, and they fairly shook the advancing
party. They elo3ed, however, and a hand to
hand fight followed, in which many fell. One
big fellow of the 40th is said to have bayonetted
six of the enemy, and was then shot down. Some
whiteskinned scoundrel was among the enemy,
directing them, and I fear escaped hanging by
getting shot. The grenadier company lost 33
killed and wounded, chiefly in the struggle.
" Whilst this was going on the Maories came
pouring in from the back country, and outflanked
our men •, and after holding out as long as he
thought fair to the men, no reinforcement arriving,
Major Nelson ordered a retreat. An attempt was
made to do so, followed:by a perfect crowd of natives,
when the artillery, which had been run off dia-
gonally to cover the retreat, threw in a few rounds
of grape, and one discharge made, it is said,' A lane
through them,' and they gave up the attempt to
pursue. _ _

(Fro. the 84/elney Morning He mall)
By the Prince Alfred mail steamer we have
papers from New Plymouth (Taranaki), to the 30th
of June.
She brings news of a very painful and disastrous
character. An advance upon the rebels' pall at
Waitara has been made, and, after fighting for
more than four hours with great gallantry against
large numbers of natives, covered by their intrench-
ments, our forces were obliged to retreat, leaving
29 dead and 33 wounded on the field. The die is
cast. it is plain that we have a foe to deal with
who is not to be despised ; it is equally so that he
must be put down at all cost. Major Nelson and
Captain Seymour, with the whole of their men,
appear to have acted with great gallantry, and in
a manner equally removed from over-caution. The
Taranaki II erald says :
" While last Saturday's sheet was printing guns
were heard at Waitara, and the Tasmanian Maid
on Tuesday brought intelligence that a reconnoit-
ring party of the 40th had been fired on by the
natives from the pah restored at Puketakauere.

" Weanesday morning was fixed for attacking
the pah. Guns and reinforcements of the 40th
Regiment and of the blue jackets were despatched
from town, and plans of proceeding canvassed by
men with and without authority.
"Weather of the most inclement kind that this
country knows added to the hardships of this pre-
paring for the rough business.
" The reinforcements waded out through a sea of
mud, under south-west squalls and showers.
" The Puketakauere Pah consists of two stock-
ades; one upon the intrenchments of the old
pah of the same name, the other new and appa-
rently without intrenchments. They stand on a
ridge formed by two small gullies. These gullies
meet a little below the pah, and open on a swampy
ground in the Waitara Valley, forming a sort of
long Y, the stalk towards the river, and the stock-
ades in the fork.

" The parties in the rear had meanwhile been en-
gaged with the natives on the ridge on which stands
the pah, and had cut off some who were endeavour-
ing to escape on that side; they were part of them
stationed in high fern and tutu, and the crowd from
inland had nearly surprised them. When the bugle
sounded the retreat they were separated from the
main body by swarms of natives, and were obliged
tomake the best oftheir way back by the low ground
over which they had advanced. They had been
taken to their position by the celebrated chief Ihai.
He is still suffering from some scorbutic complaint
contracted in the long siege of the Karaka pah, and
being half lame and knocked up had to crawl back
to the camp, where he arrived at 11 o'clock, covered
with mud, thorns, and thistle seed. He did his duty,
and it is fair to mention him here, as he might be
forgotten, and his whole fierce and energetic mind
is bent on aiding our cause. His absence, however,
left the rear party without a guide. Lieut. Brooke
was killed in a swamp, fighting several natives
with his sword, till a cut on the wrist disabled him,
and he fell by the blows of their tomahawks. The
rearward party left 13 men on the ground. Only
one wounded man escaped, the whole retreat hav-
ing to be hardly fought against great odds. The
whole loss on our side was-

"The main body, consisting of the Grenadier and
Light Companies of the 40th Regiment, under Capt.
Richards, and 60 blue jackets, under Ist Lieut.
Battiscombe of the Pelorus, with the Artillery, ap-
proached the pah by the directest road from the
camp, and at 6 o'clock a.m. the guns were brought
to bear, and the men extended on the northwest, or
seaward side of the pall, the smaller gully between
them and it. With this division were Major Nelson,
and Capt. Seymour, of the Pelorus.
" A second division of about 50 men, under Capt.
Messenger, was posted on the flat of the Waitara,
to cut off the retreat on that side; and a third, under
Capt. Bowdler, passed along the river banks, and
attempted to take the pah in the rear.
"The natives were aware of the movement, and
were on the alert. The first firing was on the rear-
ward party, and a Maori informant states that,
finding the troops advancing on that side, many of
the natives went out of the stockade, some of them
endeavouring to escape, and some occupying the
iatrenchments of a second old pah, to the rearward
of—that is to say, nearer to the Waitara than—the
two stockades. It could be seen that the party
under Capt, Messenger was doing great execution
on the stragglers who attempted to escape, and for
a time it appeared as if the attack in the rear would
succeed ; but after a short space a large reinforce-
ment from the inland settlements of Wi Kingi ar-
rived among the high fern, and a fierce battle en-
sued, the natives greatly outnumbering the troops.
" The Grenadier company of the 40th Regiment
and the blue jackets formed the right wing of the
main party in front, and extended beyond the head
of the gully, facing partly round towards the south-
west side of the pah. Large numbers of the enemy
came to the brink of the gully, and the pah was pro-
bably almost empty. The combatants were about
150 yards apart, divided by the gully, firing briskly
and steadily, but not able to close except where the
right wing overlapped the head of the gully, and
here a desperate struggle took place with a party
of natives who had a trench at one of the outworks
of the old fortifications. Here was the hottest fight-
ing and the greatest loss sustained by this di

retreat that Lieutenant Brooke and the other gallant
fellows
to retire as of these divisions were killed. They endea-
voured they had advanced, but we fear
some misunderstanding or mistake of the ground
was partly the cause of the serious loss on this side.
They had to fight their
way back to the camp.
There were
men present cool enough to see that
the British honour was not only sustained but exalted
by this fierce struggle. The great numerical superi-
ority of the natives alone made it necessary for our
troops to retire. Officers and men fought with steadi-
ness and energy, under a fire which an Indian officer
compares to that at Ferozeshah and Sobraon, and
which a soldier of the Crimea states to have been
hotter than that in the Redan. The gallant Captain
Seymour of the I'elorus, received a bullet in the leg.
Lieut. Brooke sold his life dearly, and fell only when
his sword arm was helplessly wounded. Non-com-
missioned officers and privates were recognised in
some cases singly and coolly firing on large bodies of
the enemy, and then as coolly retiring. The enemy,
too, showed unexpected resolution, and have proved
the first body of men able to meet the British bayo-
, net.

Of these 29 were killed and 32 wounded ; one of the
latter has since died. Among the killed was Lieut.
Brooke, and among the wounded idlis Captain
Seymour, of the Pelorus ; but I am glad to say his
wound is not likely to deprive us long of his in-
valuable services.
"It is worth recording that the natives were
observed to dispense with the ramrod in loading—
their balls going easily down their guns, the butts
of which they struck two or three times on the
ground.
" From the spectators of this fight, and the few
who joined it of their own choice, we hear but one
tale. Every one fought with steady active courage ,
no one skulked ; officers and men alike did their.
duty under great odds and a fire at times of a
fierceness that astonished veterans of the Indian
service. The natives, it is said, are warriors equal
to the Sikhs. I hear the name of Ferozeshah,
Sobraon, the Redan, used to describe the sort of
conflict. It was no disgrace, icace, then to be repelled.
We may be proud the 27th June at Puketa-
kauere. One man there was who cou:d have made
this affair a
decisivek victory. It was an enlarged
w
repetion of Succour was needed, and it
was at hand but
it was withheld. Not only are
the rebels unconquered, but the bodies of our dead
unburied, or are indebted to the enemy for
burial. Here was no divided responsibility, no
orders to hamper ; it lay in the power of the com-
mander of the forces to cooperate, to succour, or
Promptly to retrieve. One after another he neg-
lected or declined these opportunities as they
passed. He did not create a diversion ; he delayed
when he should have hurried to relieve, and he
marched his eager men back to quarters when he
should have gone forward to renew the strife. It
is true that all was quiet when he left Mahoetahi ;
but for aught he knew it might be the quiet of
death. I know something will be said about the
town; but the town was not unprotected. Here
is, roughly, the state of the force we had on Wed•
nesday, the 27th :

" It must not be omitted, either, that thought-
ful preparations had been made by the excellent
commander of the 40th for the day's work.
Double rations of food were cooked, carts, bul-
locks, ammunition, everything was punctually at
its place ; and the excellent plan of operations and
gallant conduct of the attacks did fresh honour to
the name idolised by Britons. the
