ON Dominion Day an ancient barracouta belonging to tho lato Colony of New Zealand, simultaneously with the firing of the guns which prdblaimed "Our" Dominion, swam from Ward's Island, and with great gusto and a swish of his tail landed himself ou board tho Moturoa, and with a briny tear in his eye piped through his gills this .refrain to the accompaniment of soa air : — " What'o all this pomp, all this puff, This eclat and new opinion? Say, "Old Salt," "Colony" was good enough ; Then why call it a Dominion? My mates am swimming madly round, Driven demented by Dominion sound ; Each one has now changed his name To keep pace with Dominion fame. And thus its hard to- understand How to salute each other near tho land. "Polorus Jack," alas, is no more, Known by that name along the shore ; He was a good 'un, as you know — An "Old Colonial," he bossed the show In "French Puss" he swims now to and fro, Not "Pelorus Jack," but "Dominion Joe." —Old Salt Poet.
