What's in q. Kiss 2

Mother, mother, kiss pleaded little
cherub boy, with blue eyes, anxiously
searching his mother usually serious face,
as she tenderly laid him upon his soft, warm
bed, and lovingly folded the snowy drapery
about him. DO kiss me, mother = And
the rosy lips began to uemble, the tear
drops to gather in the upturned eyes, and
the little bosom heaves with struggling e.
motions.
My little son has been naughty to-day, =
replied the mother sadly how can | kiss
those lips that have spoken such angry
words ?''
Too much, too much Dutiful mother,
relent The little heart is swelling, break
ing with grief tumultuous sobs break from
the agitated bosom; the snow-white pillow
is drenched with penitent tears, and the lit
tie dimpled hand is extended SO imploring-
ly. Relent
'Tis enough Once more the little head is
pillowed upon the maternal bosom-once
more the little cherub form is pressed to
that mother aching heart, and the good
night kiss of forgivness and love is given
two-fold tenderer A few moments and the
sobbings cease, the golden head droops, the
weary eyelids close, and the little erring
one is laid back upon his couch, penitent
and humbled by "a kiss from mamma
What in kiss-a simple kiss? Much,
very much More potent than the scepter-
dearer to affection than countless wealth.
Who has not felt its magic influence? Tis
the lovers tender pledge of undying CON
stancy; It's bond of friendship and fideli-
ty, and not only is it dear to the youthful
and ardent, but also to old age, to the with
cred heart and bloomless cheek.

Rules to be Observed.

Whenever you take gun in your hand,
inquire if it is loaded. Should there be no
person to answer you, if the gun is muz-
zle loader, place the butt on the ground,
outside the left foot, having previously fix
ed the hammer at half-cock, and holding
the muzzle in forward direction, clear of
your person, draw the ramrod, and insert it
gently in the barrel If there is charge in
you will feel the thud of the re mrod upon
it, whilst the rods upper end will project
about three fingers bredth above the mnz-
loaded the ramrod will sink right down, and
the broad metal end will soon announce the
empty barrel by the tap ae ainst the breech-
plug. Never handle loaded gun except
for the purpose of discharging it; and never
at any time-either in jest or earnest-point
gun at any living thing you don't deliber-
atty intend to kill Chambers Journnal.

Moseby Too.

1t appears by late dispatches that this
desperate cut-throat has also been negeria-
ting for such a surrender as would afford him
and his brigan& entire immunity for all
their malefactioi1s There viii be terrible
awakening from this season of folly Our
people are not in a mood to deal gently with
defeated traitors. Treason is scotehed bat
not killed. If we hszmit the bad men rho
have plunged this nation into war, tQ5I as
sert their infnence in the South, we may
just as well gstTeady for another insurrec-
ton The .Nhple programme is wrong It
is cruel outrage upon our living and dead
soldiers. 1t is an outrage upon the people
North who have sustained those soldiers SO
faithfully during the war. 1t is an outrage
upon great principles which gave glory To
the struggle. Our Government viii stran-
gle this newborn danger which threatens
us, and vindicate the majesty of that law,
for which this great contest has been waged.

Th e Rebel Debt.

He who seriously pretends, that there
will not be hereafter systematic, COM
bined effort on the part of the South aided
by northern allies to cause the assumption
of the rebel debt by the United States,
must be ignorant of the signs Of the times
The President sees this, and hence he
makes one of the most express conditions
of return to the Union of the rebel states,
full and complete reputation of the rebel
debt. With him there can be no recon
struction or return, except upon this
condition. President Johnson, for the
firm stand he has taken upon this ques-
ton, deserves the profound thanks Of the
whole country. In The first place princi
pie torbids the government ever assumin e
one dollar of this debt. To pay the rebels
for the expense incurred by them in
waging four years war upon the govern
ment, would be a direct recognition of
the right Of secession, and would be es-
tablishing precedent which woutd en-
courage rebellion hereafter
In the second place it would be ter
rible outrage upon the people of the loyal
States To tax them to pay the rebel war
debt, would be the meanest kind of rob-
berry 1t would be Il Wholesale system of
extortion, which woIld not be tolerated

there is no danger from this quarter, but
we do not look at the matter in that light.
We maintain there Is danger. The reb

Of this debt They thirst for power, and
their only hope is in an alliance with the

A Historical Fact.

At the breaking out of the Revolution
ary war, the slave trade was extensively
engaged in by Northern shippers and
merchants. Boston, to this day, retains
some Of the relics of he barbarous enter
prise. In New York and Philadelphia,
there was no disguise attempted for the
traffic III human 9esh. But as soon as II
was impossible, during the Revolutionary
war, Tor any man TO remain in the colo
MES and maintain neutral attitude, the
great bot!y IF these Stare importers 0oosCed
their adhesion to the cause OF the King, and
fook up arms to resist the purpose Of the
Colonies. Thus from the first, the slave
masters Of America were opposed to our
present form of GOVERNMENT. The late
rebellion of the slave masters oe the
South, was only the emulation of the et-
forts of the slave masters OF the North, i,
who in 1776 allied themselves with the
BRUSH Government to Illustrate the es-
tabhshment of freedom on the Western
continent Nor does the parallel end
here The British Government In 1861
'62 -'63, reciprocated the assistance which
the slave holders of America rendered the
English in 1776. England, as Gov
erEment, was the first In the world to offer
an alliance to the Southern slave holders
in their rebellion to destroy the American
Union. But in each case the alliance was
fruitful only of defeat and disgrace.
