Where crimson bushes mingle;

To be so near beholden.
There is an angel face
Within an angels bonnet;

TO melt in fakes upon ii.
There is little heart
Hy heart throbs at each minute:
And would give the world
To win it-only win it.
There is a little girl
Skates somewhere hereabout;
And if | were her skates

The State Department has given notice

approval '-i<'
The Florida and Cuba Telegraph Com

gross, have secured a grant from Spain, Civ
ing them the exclusive right to land cable

order by the 10Th of March.
The registration Of voters in Georgetown,
d. c., under the suffrage act recently passed

l. The bill amending the acts organizing the
several Territories, comforting suffrage
therein without regard to race or color, has
/ become law without the Presidents APP
proyal. 1t was presented to him on the 10Th
inst, and as he has not returned it within
the ten days allowed by the Constitution,
after it had been presented to him, it has
become'a law, in like manner as if he had
signed it. The bill repeating the amnesty
and pardon authority given to the Presi-
| dent became law in similar way.
