Japanese Carpenters.

The Japanese carpenters are ipgeni
Gus workmen, and their work is done
with marvellous neatness. A curious
feature of their houses is, that they do
not contain nail, all of the Joints and
timb0rs being dovetailod together by
many ingenious devices; aud the whole
work, even to the rafters, is as smooth
as if it had been polished down with
sandpaper. And the Japanese are a
neat people; for they use no paint to

ornamentation-no filagree work or

Sudden Deaths.


During the past cycle Of years, il has
been very generally noticed that thers
have heen more sudden deaths than at
any other similar period Of our count
ry shistory
IL is often remarked that pnfsols die
more frequently from apoplexy, paraly-
sis, heart disaare aud other similar
causes, than they did in former times
Many who make such observations sup
pose these fatal maladies have naturally
increased This is true to some extent,
but owing only aud 10 proportion to the
regular augmentation Of population
Where city for instance, has grown
10 its inhabitants from hundred 10
three, four and Ave hundred Thousand.
We may reasonably expect the bill Of
mortality to be larger and greater
number Of deaths reported resulting
from all causes. Still il is often snrs
prising that the very sudden demiscs
resulting, as supposed, from apoplexy,
paralysis, heart disease, epilepsy, &c,
are 50 frequent
Practical observation, however, has
lamentably proven this to be the fact 10
both town and country, but there arc
few who attribute it to the Legitimate
cause, 1t is known by all close OBJ
servers that there is more intemperance

there ever has been at any previous

THE RAINBOW.

When but a child-'twas long ago
Ny nurse this story told
She said, whoe'er might chance to know
The spot whereOn the bright rainbow
Touched the green earth, would find beio'
A pot of shining gold.
Therefore, on many summer even
When rains were passed away,
And the fair arch spanned all the heaven,
Have from hill to hilltop striven,
Until the cloudborn colors seven
Faded to misty gray.
Aud with boys simplicity
marveled half In fear,
That ever as ran with gloe
Toward the spot where could see
The rainbow touch, 1t seemed 10 me
To vanish in the air.
When grown youth often smiled
Remembering this gold
To think how, when a silly child,
was so easily beguiled,
And credited the legend wild
The doting dame had told.
But with maturity of years,
Gray hair and bearded chin,
The legend now type appears
OF Ofhuman life how worn with cares
We follow where Hopes rainbow cheers
Some yisioned prize to win.
Passing at length on the last hill,
Whose feet Deaths waters 4ave
From that dark river deep and chill
We shuddcring shrink with awe, until
We see the rainbow, arching still
The lands beyond the grave.
