Any man who can swop horses, or

about as pious as men ever get in this
world.
There is full as much pleasure in

Cunning is Q short lived success.
Truth never need be in hurry, but q

lazy lie soon tires itself out, and ends in
confusion.

The WINS Of Great Lawyers.

That the greatest lawyer will more
nrObahlv blunder in tho drafting OF neN
own wills has long since attained the oie-
nitv OF an axiom; but few, perhaps, are
aware Of the number and striking charac-
ter Of the instances upon which this axiom
is founded. aa,.
In note to Hayes and Jarman's
/" Concise Forms of Wills" list is gwen
of these stfoliies of the wise;" ana
yerv remarkable list it is. No fewer than
fifteen legal luminaries Of the first mag
nitude are comprised in the catalogue.
The win OF Mr.. Sergeant Hill, it is said,
twas go singularly confused that but for
the respect due to the very learned SER
reant it might not unreasonably have
been held void for uncertainty;;n though
it is not quite clear how the reputation OF
the learned sergeant could have made ms
meaning any the more easy to discover, OF
how the celebrity Of testator could nave
diminished the obscurity of his language.
But "the will Of Sir Samuel Romilly
was also unartifcially framed, and that
of Chief Baron Thomson was the subject
of chancery proceedings. So also was
the will Of Chief-J ustice Holt, Chlef-
Justice Eyre, Mr.. Sergeant MaynaSdi,
Vernon, the eminent chancery counsel,
Mr.. Baron Wood. Mr. Justice Vaughan,
Francis Vesey, Jr., the reporter, Richard
Preston. the conveyancer, and Lord Chan
cellor Westbury." Two, 1t any rate, OF
these experts might have been warned by
the previous fate OF a distinguished friend
against the indiscretion of attempting to
draw their own wills; for we read that
"Chief.J Justice Saunders appears to have
made speculative devise upon the valid
ity of which his executors, Maynard, Holt
and Pollexfen, all great lawyers, were di-
vidcd in opinion"
The list, however, is not yet concluded
for the will of Bradley, the celebrated
conveyancer, was set aside by Lord Thur

Japanese Amusement.

How the Japanese amuse themselves
is thus told by the Japanese Gazette: A
large paper screen hangs down at the edge
of the platform. Suddenly flutes are
blown and drums beaten, and then five or
six trunks of green pine trees appear on
the screen, after which man habited in
a ceremonial dress, with Yeboahi on
his head, makes his appearance, hold
ing bell in his right hand and fan in
his left. He moves eyes and eyebrows
about, rings his bell, fourishes his fan
and dances so gracefully to the accom-
panying music that the spectators are
misled into the belief that it is real flesh
and blood performing for their edification.
In moment the shadow vanishes; and
Immediately after a variety of beautiful
trees and lovely plants make their appear

with red and white flags, and lighted by
rows of small lanterns. Worshipers are
visible passing to and fro, throwing in
their cash and praying. The music
stops; the worshippers have all disap.
peared. It is night-midnight. Hark!
There breaks upon the ear the footmen's
cry of aoakiyore give way. It is the
procession Of foxes. They proceed very
slowly; some are carrying mats; others
lighting the procession by torches held
between their teeth; more are carrying

Soon after, Capt Oasabianca, the father,
was wounded by musket- ball. Not yet
disabled, he was struck in the head some
minutes later by splinter, which laid
him upon the deck insensible.
His gallant son, unconscious Of the
tohteftain's doom, still held his poGt at the
fbattery whore he worked like the hero he
was. he saw the flames raging around
him, he saw the ships crew deserving
him one by one, and the boy was urged
to fee. =
| With 8 courage and GOODNESS beyond
bis years, he refused to desert his post.
! Worthy son of Louis Casabianca, he
fought on and never abandoned the Orr.
ent till the whole of the immense vessel
was enveloped in flames. Then, seeking
refuge on floating mast, he left the
burning ship behind him.
But he was too late. The final catas-
trophe came like the judgment doom.
With an explosion so tremendous that
every ship felt it to the very bottom, the
Orient blew up, and from among the
wreck the next morning was picked up
the dead mangled body Of the young
hero whose story romance and poetry can
mot make mere heroic than it was.
His tragic fate has been related in mill
ions of homes, and the fathers glory has
been overshadowed by that Of the sons.
Brave, faithful heart, he rests now far be-
meath the waters in that classic sunset
land, and maybe the rushes Of the Nile
whisper his requiem where they tremble
in the fragrant orient breezes that sweep
from the Midland Sea. And who shall
say it is not noble grave?
