Download or read book History of New Zealand Vol 3 of 3 Classic Reprint written by G. W. Rusden and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-18 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of New Zealand, Vol. 3 of 3 The hereditary lust for battle was not extinct in his tribe, and when the old man was removed, some of the fiery Spirits desired to display their prowess. They demanded from the counsellors of King Tawhiao the surrender of the murderers of Mr. Todd, and they would have made refusal a ground for war. But, though the English and allied forces could have been made over whelming, mclean was too wise if not too kindly to yield to such demands. His policy was accepted by all. The Governor encouraged it. The Assembly raised no questions about it. Those who had thirsted for revenge against T itokowaru and Te Kooti sullenly consented to leave things alone, trusting to the decimation of their enemies by disease and death with the frightful rapidity which the musket and civilization had ensured. Two meetings were held by the Maoris: one at Parihaka on the west coast, where Te Whiti was rising into repute as a prophet; the other at the Maori king's residence, Te Kuiti. To both, Europeans and their Maori friends were invited, and Te Wheoro, who had laboured to procure a meeting between the Duke of Edinburgh and Tawhiao in 1869, was treated with marked respect at Te Kuiti. His offer to mediate was received with favour by Eewi. Major Mair was present and the Maori king no longer held aloof, but mingled freely with his guests, as had been the custom before the rape of the Waitara in 1860.

Book History of New Zealand  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book History of New Zealand Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by George William Rusden and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of New Zealand, Vol. 1 IT is impossible to study the facts connected with the Maori race without being deeply interested in their fortunes. With whatever motive any one might undertake to write a history of the English occupation of New Zealand, he is no sooner confronted by the facts with regard to the Maoris their polity, their laws, their sagacity, their cannibal rites, their blood-thirstiness, their heroism, their generosity, and their eloquence - than he finds that amongst them, and not amongst the invaders of their country, will be found the chief and most lasting interest of his work. He will find also that many of the hundreds of volumes written about New Zealand transmit statements originally put forward by those who had an interest in deception in order to conceal their own misdoings. But, though the task may be laborious, he will find also, by diligent search amongst authentic records, ample proof of the real facts, and of the methods by which they have been obscured or mis represented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of New Zealand, Vol. 2 of 3 Materials for forming an Opinion of the gravity of the situation were gradually supplied to the English Government. The Duke of Newcastle, until July, 1860, seemed unconscious. Parliament slumbered. Not since April, 1854, had New Zealand papers been presented. In July, 1860, they were again laid on the table. The Duke wrote that he could not hold out any hope that it would be possible to increase permanently the present military force; sent out four silver-headed sticks to be given by the Governor to chiefs, 1 and started on a tour with the Prince of Wales to the United States, leaving Sir G. Corne wall Lewis and Mr. Chichester Fortescue to sign documents until his return. The former of the two brought a judgment to bear which the Duke had wanted. He saw danger. Mro Richmond's celebrated but (as he called it) able and interesting memorandum shocked him as it had shocked Sir W. Denison. Her Majesty's Government had very carefully considered the case, and were not prepared to meet Mr. Richmond's wishes. A policy which requires the continual presence of a large force carries, in most cases, its condemnation on its face.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Zealand and the War The measures which were prepared by the General Conference for organizing a system of government for the Church in New Zealand have been completed; and though based only on the principle of voluntary compact, they promise to be productive of useful results. If the subject of organizing a constitutional government for the Church of England shall ever become a question of practical importance, something may be learned from the New Zealand experiment. It must be interesting indeed, under any circumstances, to witness the difficulties which churchmen have to em counter when thrown upon their own resources in a new country, without law or organization, with out endowments, and beyond the jurisdiction of the ecclesiastical tribunals of the mother country.
