Four companies and a band have been formed. - ; ' Would it not be better to spend our money on finding work for the people - rather than in encouraging useless " playing' atsofdiers?" : '"-■ '■■'< - ■■■' >'• •' • . ■ ■•■ ; 'Dunedin folks'are agitating the question ; —" Hare lunatics and paupers a right to ' vote?" ■■■ ■ •■> ••• fj Auckland folks are qwite satisfied oh the subject; and also that lunatics and paupers \ may be candidates for.

A new paper has been started at Dunedin — " The Federated Union Shipping Gazette," the official organ of the Federated Seamen's 1 Union of Australasia. An exchange states'that " William Stur- geon, the famous electrician, rose rapidly from a cobbler's bench." Hβ probably s'ais on the sharp end of the awl. • There is to be a "grand nicht wi , Scottish; chiels " at Abbott's Opera House on Satur- ; day night. '" ;£ ; The fe*stive Foley is to assist, so than' " ould Ireland "will also be represented. '} Wife: " T don't see why women should! not make as good swimmers as men.".

" Are you pretty well acquainted with your mother tongue, my boy ?" asked the school teacher oi a hew scholar. "Yes, sir," answered the lad timidly ; "mother jaws me a good deal, sir." A-reporter,- writing to a contemporary, states that "Joseph G. Stevens was bitten by a dog at the south end last week, and the dog now sleeps the sleep of death." This should be a warning to dogs to keep away from Mr Stevens's south end;

Mr S. Mcßui-ney, a lecturer and enter tainer of some repute, is expected to visib Auckland shortly. '- When the Prince of Wales was leaving' Manchester lately; £ member of the Town Council pressed forward, and in a burst of loyalty said : ' ' Bring the old woman with' thee next time !"

' Still, the vote was taken by ballot, so that there could be no " undue influence" or'in-! timidatioh employed. i > H-.J c»' Young husband :" It does seem'to me' yoti might-learn how , to cook better : than' that.
