Ever since the French took the Island In 1S42. half of the native of Ralatea have rebelled against foreign rule. They built an Immense tone fence over the Island from one side to the other, al lowing the natives who obeyed the French to live on one a)de of the Irland, while they lived on the other. The French have long desired to poeseaa the island, but Queen Mamea rather than give In to them haa made offer to annex her side of the Island to the Americana, British and Germans through their con suls at Tahiti, but the offers have at all time been refused. A few mrnths ago a French gunboat appeared at the Island and the queen found henelf sur rounded and compelled to surrender. The native flag was hauled down and the tricolor raised and the long trouble was ended. The surrender waa made on March last, shortly before the City of Papeete sailed. Queen Mamea is a young girl, only years old. and not an old woman, aa has been suited. Her ubject are not fierce and uncivilised, but peaceable and hoe pliable. She will receive about 4.000 francs from the French government fo her urrender. Examiner. A little 111, then a little pit. The 111 ha gone, the pill haa won.
