THE KISS IN SCHOOL.
! school not far away,

A district school not far away,
Mid Berkshire hills, one winters day,
Was humming with its wOnted noise,
Of three score mingled girls aud boys
Some few upon their tasks intent,
But more on future mischief bent;
The while the masters downward look
Was fastened on o copy-book-
Rose sharp and clear rOusing smack!
As 'twere a battery of bliss
Let off in one tremendous kiss.
What's that?' the startled master cries,
That thir,' little imp replies,
'Wath William Width if you pleathe-
I saw him kith Thuthannah Peathe!'
With frown to make q statute thrill,
The master Numbered, Hither Will
Like wretch o'ertaken in his track,
With stolen chattels on his back,
Will hung his head with fear and shame,
And to that awful presence came
A great, green bashful simpleton,
The butt of all good-natured fun.
With smile suppressed, and birch appraised,
The threat'ne faltered-' I'm amazed
That you, my biggest pupil, should
Be guilty of an act 80 rude!
Before the whole set school to boot
What evil genious put you tot?
Twas she, herself, SIR sobbed the lad,
4 didn't mean to be so bad
But when Susannah shook her curls,
And whispered l was fraid of girls,
And darsn't kiss babys doll,
couldn't stand it, sir, at all!
But up and kissed her on the spot:
-bOo-I ought to not,
But, somehow, from her looks-boo- boo
though she kind O. wished me to!

THE LOVE CHEAT.

She loved me, she said and she swOre it !;
She swore it thousand times;
She treasured my letters like jewels,
And learned and repeated my rhymes.
And numberless tokens she gave me;
Her kisses were many and sweet
And | thought her an angel from heaven
While she was but wOmanly cheat.
She robbed me of rest and of comfort
And gave me bright hopes in return.
And now by the f1re.side lonely,
Her letters smilingly burn.
For loud are the marriage bells pealing
The priest, too, is blessing the bride;
And she leans on the arm of another,
Who once was my love and my pride.
All. well! let her live and be married;
Her letters are burnt, and see
lis better be rid of such tokens,
And keep the heart healthy and free.

WAR DEPARTMENT,
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O-1O p. MI
To Major General Dix:
The following report of the success of our
operations at Mobile, extracted from the Rich
mond Enquirer of this morning, has just been
received by this Department from Major Gen.
Butler:
MOBILE Aug. S.-Friday night Lieut.. Col.
Williams, commanding Fort Powell, evacuated
and blew up the fort.
ing Fort Gaines. The people are all ready for
the fray, and great confidence prevails. The
people are satisfied with the conduct of Lieuts
Buchanan, Maury and Darnette, of the navy.
SECOND DISPATCH.
MOBILE, Aug. SIT is painfully humilating
to announce the shameful surrender Of Fort
Gaines at $3.50 A. M. this morning by Col. Chas.
Anderson, of the 31st Alabama regiment.
This powerful work was provisioned for six
months, and had garrison of 600 men. He
communicated with the enemy's fleet by flag
of truce. Gen. Page inquired BY signal what
his purpose was, but received no answer. His
attention was attracted by signal guns.
Page repeatedly telegraphed, Hold on to
your fort" The same night he visited Fort
Gaines and found Anderson on board the Yan-
kee fleet arranging the terms of capitulation.
lie lett peremptory orders for Anderson,
on his return, not to surrender the fort. and
relieved him of his command.
Fort Morgan signalled this morning but no
answer was received except the hosting of the
Yankee flag over the ramparts of Fort Gaines
Anderson's conduct is officially pronounced
inexplicablo and shameful.
Dispatches just received from Gen. Sheridan
report his forces moving against the enemy up
the Shenandoah. At 4 P. NJ. they were Skin
mishing about ten miles from Winchester.
This morning General Grant reported the
explosion of an ordnance boat yesterday loaded
with ammunition at City Point wharf No
details have been received. Col. Babcock, of
Gen. Grants staff, was slightly wounded.
No operations before Atlanta of consequence
are reported to-day.
Portions of Stoneman's command are con-
tinuing to arrive, anu the total loss will not
exceed 1000.
