Krii.ul'Si.—A mistake having inadvertently occurred in tin- Karakiu, published in the last number of this Journal, whereby an incorrect copy was published, and as a necessary consequence, an imperfect translation ; we now subjoin a correct version of the original, with a translation which gives the true meaning of the words, as nearly as the nature of it will admit. It must however he understood, that nothing is more difficult than correctly to translate any of the ancient Maori, either in the shape of Songs Karakias or Proverbs. A literal translation, it is hardly necessary to say, would be unintelligible to any one whilst upon the other hand, it does not do to depart too far from the real meaning of the words in order to obtain a version which shall read well in English. ■• Hoi kai in.iii to taiigata, Mukutu inai, niahara niai, Koi reira 10 hnr.i, llarihara aitua, liaraliaru a (ai, I pakia ai koc, i r.diua ai koo, Ninilio koi l.ir.i, kia no nilio,
