How CANADA OBTAINED ITS NAME.-The origin
of the word Canada" is curious enough. The
Spanish visited that country previous to the
French, and made particular search for gold and
silver, and finding none, they often said among
themselves, "Aca naba," There is nothing here.
The Indians-who watched closely-learned this
sentence and its meaning. The French arrived,
and the Indians (who wanted none of their COM
pany, and supposed they also were Spaniards come
on the SAME Grand were anxious to inform them
in the Spanish sentence, Aca nada.
The French, who knew as little Of Spanish as the
Indians, supposed this necessarily recurring sound
was the name of the country, and gave it the name
Canada" which it has borne ever since.

REvoLUTloN IN BUILDING.-In various parts of
Massachusetts,, the new material for the construction
of dwelling houses, stores, barns, &C., is coming
into use. This new material is called concrete, and
is made of gravel and lime. We believe it was
Mr.. Fowler, of New York, who first used the article
in this country for building purp 'ses. Two or
three buildings of this material are in process of
erection in this city, and we feel safe in predicting
that ere long no material will be more generally
used than concrete. We saw one house at Hope
dale, the other day, a beautiful octagon, the walls
and partitions of which from cellar to roof, cost but
one hundred and fifty dollars, labor and stock in
cluded.
This material can be shaped into every conceiva-
bic form. Those who desire columns, pilasters,
cornicos, or other architectural ornaments to their
dwellings, can have them almost without money
and without price, for lime is cheap, and gravel
can be had for nothing. Comfortable, convenient,
beautiful and durable homes may be built of con
crete, for less than one half the cost of their con-
s~truction, out Of any other known material. The
Introduction Of concrete will form a new era in the
art of bnildinS, be the means we ardently hope OF
providing "hOmcs for all."-Rhode Island Free
man.

WILL BE PUBLISHED ON THE 1st AUGUST.
THE CABIN BOYS STORY.

A SEMI-NAuTICAL ROMANCE OF INTENSE INTEREST,
BY THE AUTHOR OF TIE pirate DocToR," THE
Lawyers Story" THE GOLD DocToR," &c., &c.
The success hitherto enjoyed by the author Of the
above popular works is u sufficient guarantee Of
the favor with which any productions coming from
his pen will be received by the public. "The Cab
in Boys Story" is n romantic narrative, ~illustra-
ting the horrors of the Slave Trade, as carried on
in the Coast of Africa. The author has served in
the navy-and the descriptions and characters are
painted from personal acquaintance with them.
The story is full of exciting interest and adventure
as the celebrated work of Defoe, "Robinson Cru
Soc" and has the advantage over that glorious fc-
ton, inasmuch MS it is founded on facts of every day
occurrence. The history of the heroine of the
Story, Huleika, the Circassian Slave, purchased at
Constantinople, educated and married by the reck-
less, yet chiyalric, Seymour-the commander of
the Albatross, is simply the narration of a fact,
painted from the life, and all the numerous charac-
ters portrayed throughout the story are wildly and
graphically drawn.
The publishers have already received orders for
the whole Of the edition it was originally their in
tention to publish; consequently, they have been
obliged largely to increase it; and they respectfully
request that all orders may be sent in Immediately.
They confidently expect that the work will create
rs much interest as any work of fiction that has Of
late years eminated from the press, as, notwith-
standing, since the publication of "Uncle Toms
Cabin" works relating to slavery in America, PRO
and con, have been numerous, none have appeared
having relation to the system of purchasing slaves
on the African Coast, written by one who has wit
messed it in all it's hideous deformity. The work
is written in ehaste and pure language, and will be
Il welcome and instructive addition to the family
library.
The work will form a beautiful octave volume of
400 pages, handsomely illustrated with fine engra-
wings, and elegantly bound in cloth. Price in cloth
one dollar; in paper, IS cents, at which rate copies
will be sent by the publishers to any part of the
country, free Of postage.

HUMANITY.
FROM THE GERMAN OF K1NKEL, BIZ
ALFRED DARKERviLLE

Upon the hoary earth already
Have countless nations been enrolled,
And holocausts to gods been offered,
Enthroned on affairs manifold.
Again the pious will hereafter
To God still fairer affairs build,
And sorrows yet unknown be suffered,
And with new joys the heart be filled.
1t blinds me mott With Loves affection
Tho strife of Time | gaze upon,
Mid changing destinies and nations
Humanity rolls smoothly on.
| know that nc'er q day hath broken
Which gladden'd not one single breast;
That ne'er a spring hath followed winter
But with a song the world it blessed.
I know that from the goblet's torrent
Conceptions vast, creative, rise;
| know that in a woman,s kisses
A gentle fount Of vigour lies.
| know that everywhere the heavens
Now darkly frown, now smile so bright,
That everywhere en- eye believing
Beholds the starry host by night.
| Thus It's the same, the same forever,
That thrills through every human breast +;
| see but brothers wheresoever
Mine eyes upon the earthball rest.
A link of that great chain which bindeth
The future to the past am |;
| snatch from out the struggling surgcs
The jewel Of humanity,

THE SEASON IN ITS.

\ correspondent of the Portland Aduertiser fur
nishes an interesting article upon the drouth. lie
says - We have amused ourselves recently, in
looking back to our past annals for seasons of
drouth, to find a parallel for this most unparalleled
state of the weather. and many q complaint starts
out from the past years through Parson Smiths
invaluable journal, to encourage us to hope almost
against hope, that we shall survive the present
drouth, and again behold the earth smiling in fresh
ness and beauty" We copy the record of the
year li5f, just one hundred years ago, from Parson
Smiths journal:
my moving ground, and there is no feed on the
Neck the reasons are the open Winter, three
weeks early drouth, and the grasshoppers."
22d.-"There is a melancholy drouth."
October 2Gth.-''A great storm the earth is
filed with water"
Ninety years ago the following record was made
I7G4. june 25th.-"It is as melancholy dry a
time as ever | saw" July 5th.-As great a drought
as in l749." August LIST" Dr0uth awGully con.
tinues." l2th-"No feed on the Neck for a great
while" lGth.-."The drouth increases" Now

prising change on the face of the earth" Sept
24th.-"T The earth has a most beautiful greer
face" Oct. 5th.-"The grass is better set than in
the Spring"
Fifteen of the years between 1922 and l764, arc
mentioned on account Of the drouth that prevailed
The writer closes his communicates with the fol
lowing deductions. lie says:
These well attested facts prove, LIST, that We liv,
in an extremity dry climate that we are continu
ally subject to drouths. %, that the early anC
latter rains seldom fail. Sd, that notwithstand
ing these contingencies, the earth yields to us ar
abundant supply for our wants and luxuries
that we need patient and faithful husbandry, ant
perhaps some new and improved modes of cultur,
to meet the peculiar condition of our ATMOSPHERE
influences, and to counteract them 4th, and abov
f ALL the folly, the futility, nay, the wickeduess 0
constant murmurings and complaints of the deal
ings Of Providence in those particulars which ar
the results of our peculiar climate, and to whicl
/ our vegetable kingdom is wisely adapted.

THE Door OF THE IIEART.-"S She was a stern,
hard woman But far away up n great many
pairs of winding stairs in her heart, was a door
easily passed by, and on that door was written
WoMAM."-BOz.
And so it is with the drurkard. Far away up a
great many pairs of winding stairs in his heart
is a door, and on that door is written MAN, and we
must knock at that door once, twice, seven times
yea, seventy times seven, that it may open unto
us.-JoAa b. Cough.
And so it is with the rumsellor. Far away
through long corridors, dusty and dim for years,
haunted every nook by grim ghosts of sin and
wretchedness, watching over chests of i'll cotton
gold, is Il door, and on that door is written dimly
very dimly-iIUMANITY.' Old age, with staff and
trembling step, has sought it often middle age
with bloated form and Indebtedness burning on
the haggard cheek, has sought it pleading limo,
cent childhood, went hopelessly to seek it, but in
vain. Who shall knock at that door seven times
and seventy times seven, that it may say unto us
enter ?-1emp. Wreath.

stantly on the search, and thai the conclusion of
the Caliiornians is, that more extensive fields exist
in Australia.
at is a fact that tho Cdlifornians are dissatis-
fed, and are leaving in great numbers, and so are
the Americans generally-all dissatisfied with the
gold fields. disappointed in the country, an9 dis
gusted with the government. 1t cannot be denied
that California is preferable to Australia-wagcs

compared with the numbers digging--to say nothing

"Comc back, come back, my CHILDHOOD Il. E L.
I'd not recall my childhood,
With all its sweet delight,
Its simple, bird-like gladncss,
1t was lot always bright.
Even morning had her tear drops,
And spring her clouded sky,
And on the faircst cradle
I've seen the shadows lie.
I'd not recall my childhood,
Though tender memories throng
Around its rosy portals,
Prelusive to Ifs song;
The full-voiced living chorus,
Is swelling round me now,
And a roster light is resting
Upon my maiden brow.
l have made a ~changful journey
Up the hill of life since morn;
l have gathered flowers and blossoms,
I've been pierced by manya thorn:
But from out the core of sorrow
l have pluckcd ajewel rare,
The strength which mortals gather
In their ceaslesss strife with care.
Now l grasp Ifs bursting breaker,
And howe'er the bubbles glow,
I'll pause not till I've tasted
The deepest wave below;
Though bitter drcgs may mingle,
The crimson tide shall roll,
In full and fearless currents,
Through the fountains Of my soul.j
No! I'd not go back to childhood,
From the radiant flush of noon
And when evening closes round me,
Icrave II only boon;
Amid the valleys dark,
Its dangers ard its dread,
The single star of Judah
To shine above my bead.
