[From the Hawho's Bay Herald, September 26.]

The arrival of the s.s. St. Kilda yesterday morning has put ns in possession of late dates from different parts of the coast ; but thore is not much to report in tho way of exciting incident. OPOTIKI.
Tho steamer left Opotiki on Thursday last. Up to that date there had been no important engage ment with the enemy, ho having very speedily, as a body, taken himself out of harm's way for the present. Skirmishing and foraging parties had, however, been out nearly eve,ry day, in variably successful in bringing in cattle and pro visions of different kinds, and occasionally meeting and dispersing small bodies of tha enemy.
