KisslNa rnE WRoNG WoMAH.--An amusing
mistake occurred OIL tho Milwaukee aud In
Crosse Railroad recently. Ia the fou III scat
bnck OF the stove, in one Of the passenger cars
sat gentleman and lady, sweet and gushing as
the fairy ones of Oden times. His arm cncrcled
her waist in bear like squcezing--his one hand
tOyed with her riba--hil other hand wandered
around her amplitude and bonnet strings like
lost child Ia u berry patch, seeking place to
rest. Ills eyes were fixed on the face Of his fair
companion wits all the earnesinoss Of n iiomeo.
Ia short, they were the observed of all observers
In the first seat back of the couple alluded to sat
deinure looking Indy, naturally interested in
the display Of affection 10 front OF her, so nalu-
raj and so touching. As the train approached
tunnel, the ardent lover left his seat for some
purpose, and when part through, when oil was
dark as night, he eroped his way baok--and just
as tho iraiR began to emerge into the least gim
NOR Of light there was a yell which startled the
entire load of passengers Tho poor fellow had
gone one seat too far back. and was trying his
best to kiss the demure lady, who 'coudnt see
it J" He lit out iu hurry, and with the most
sheePish look we ever saw, took his place beside
the girl, whilst the spectators were cOnvulsed
with laughter.

The Intuitions of the Soul.

In every soul Is born some thought Of God,
OF beauty, or OF wisdom, power or love.
No one SO grovelling ON the earth has ttod,
But sought on sun bright wings TO soar above
For moil III GOds own image first was made,
And dlnily In himself these thoughts bcholds
The same In nature too he sees displayed,
As she 10 him her glorious book unlulds.
Thus ever upward doth our being tend,
As we more clearly these great thoughts discern
And ask of God his heavenly grace to lend
That we ms children all the truth may learn;
That in our souls uuclOudcd and divine
The life, the light OF men, may ever shine.

Mr. EDIToR:-On his entry into the Treasury
Department Mr.. TRE,HOLH guYo authority to
the Eepositaries to receive currency on deposit
on call at per cent interest. 1t has always been
our belief. that all promises to pay Of the Con-
}e1erate States should bear interest. What is our
paper money! Itis simply the peoples medium
Of exchange, Issued by {: cir agent the Govern
meut, on their credit. And what is The essentixl
principle Of credit t2-Interest: This people are
shut out FROM the world, and deprived of the
common medium Of exchange, specie. Thrown
en- their own resources to carry on the war, with
sure faith in God, in their holy causc, and faith
each man in his brother, they arc willing 70 deal
one with another, ON credit; this being the only
way they can buy and s.ll their substances
stitution authorizes Congress to borrow money
on tho credit of the Confederate States. It also
authorizes Congress to coin money. IF the words
to coin money, sro to be taken according to the
letter, and not ths spirit of the Constitution, we
could have NO money. Congress by issuing q
uniform Interest bearing paper currency, wilr do
nothing nero than what each man in trading il
willing to do; and if it i, not done by Congress,
would be obliged to do for himself 1t dsy on
Congress to determine what arc the resources of
the cauatrJ. what its financial requirement to
am ognt Of circulating pediuln, what the rate Of
interest, and to what extent the rec ple's credi:
may. with honsety, uprightncss and wisdom, be
used. Let evdfy Confederate Note besr on its
face promise o-be paid With Interest at fixed
time, and our financial credit will be reltored.
This vopli DO the very opposite Of the course
Of partial reputation thus Ear par.urd by the
Government, 'and:wou!d bave q directly opposite
effect the minds of the people, and @f-the out
side world. Paper money which represents
certain amount Of gold and silver in the vaults
Of Government, or its banks, is entirely DIFF
fercnt thing from our paper currency. The
former. does not bear interest for 1t cas at any
moment bs rrayerted into gold and silver to b.;
placed at interest. Tho latter thould bear iptor-
est for there is 20 gold aud silver in tho country,
and It is to take the place Of SPECIE uns it can.
be redeemed after the war. The citizen, he alike
who pays and be who receives such money, will
convinced with tho pledge on its face, that the
time will surely come for its redemption with
interest This ccn:cntaa assurance, rests on his
faith in our just cause. in sis brother, AMI ip
tho Almighty. Let our Govefnment realise this,
and act ,cordingly. The result must be good,
