Orders in Native Land Court, Otago. Government advised that there is no force in general argument against authority of reference to Native Land Court. If specific objection exist to any order or reserve, it can only be taken on rehearing, which, if desired, must be applied for immediately by telegraph, as time for application expire soon. Specific grounds must be stated in letter to enable Government to debide on propriety of re-hearing.
