Pelorus Jack, who is said to have guarded the French Pass for the last sixty odd years, gave a frolicsome display yesterday afternoon to the passengers on the Arahura. Our travelling correspondent states' that the vessel had passed through the pass, and was about eight miles on its nay to Picton, when it picked up its piscatorial' pilot. "Jack" seemed glad to meet the steamer. He came to meet it in leaps and bounds. And as soon as ho reached the bows ho snuggled Into them, and stayed there. After a tame the livelier part of his exhibition began. Time after lime he threw himself clear out of the water, then nestled into the ship, and then began his gymnastico do novo. Finally, he" disappeared with his well-known grotesque iiip of the tail, which seemed to indicate "Au revoii', but not good-bye." Those passengers who have made the trip for years say that "Jack" is always first discovered by passing steamers on the eastern side of the Pass, and his performance always takes place some miles fram the entrance.
