the week ending September I'd 623
births and 755 deaths are recorded
for the kingdom. Yet, with these
evidences of civilization, there are

no account. If the above return be
criterion, it is evident that the
population of Japan is decreasing
rapidly.

A Strange Rainbow.

One of the strangest and most beau
tiful phenomena that we ever remember
to have witnessed, occurred on the
mountain range opposite Honolulu yes
terday afternoon about 8 o'clock. A
rainbow, that was very far from bow,
spread along the mountain peaks in
undulating outline having depressions
and elevations according to the irregu'
larities of the peaks encompassed by the
bright colors exhibited. The strip. Of
rainbow was about five degrees VIDE,
and the length along the mountain tops
was fully five miles. In places the
colors overlapped the peaks very consid.
erablv anu at other places darkenec
sky formed the background. Altogethel
the phenomenon was one of the mos
imposing, large and beautiful atmos
pheric exhibitions ever seen here.

A Case of Poisoning.

Various reports were flying about town
yesterday regarding the poisoning Of
several children attending the Catholic
Sisters's School. The facts, as we learn
them, are these: The parents of one of
the girls sent or took some cream cake
to their daughter, who ate part of it and
divided the rest among her three COM
panions. Soon after they were seized
with severe pain, indicating poison. Two
physicians were called in, who did all
that could be done for the sufferers. One
of the girls died yesterday, but the three
others are improving with every prospect
OF recovery.

The men of the American warehips
did not take part in the drill at the Ma
kiki grounds last night owing, it is said,
to Admiral Kimberly having given ad-

opposition manifested to the projected
treaty was the cause; but this may be
only conjecture.

A Hawaiian native, on looking at the
elephants yesterday afternoon, remarked
to companion that the "hapjacks"
were very large. Whether he meant the

but the expression showed the aptness
of the native mind to get expressions
suitable for their ideas.
