STOLEN KISS.
Gently signing,
Nearly dying,
Who would miss
Divine pleasure,
Without measure,
Stolen kiss.
Heart heart pressing,
Hands caressing,
This is bliss.
Burning, freezing,
Scarcely breathing,
Melting kiss.
Sad and grieving,
Thee I'm leaving,
Think Of me.
Miles asunier.
Ia Thy slumber
I'll kiss thee.

In the Senate to-day the session was
taken up in the discussion Of the Recon
struction bill. 1t grew out Of . motion
of Dir. Doolittle to refer the bill TO The
Committee on the Judiciary, with IN.
s,ructions to amend II with qualified sui.
frage for the negroes.
Mr. Doolttle made an elaborate speech,
which attracted great attention. He bit.
tcrly denounced the Congressional policy,
and predicted war Of races as the in
evitable result Of it. He concluded at
half past three. ...u
Mr.. Trumbull took the floor to reply.
In the course Of his remarks he said he
did not believe the current reports that
a majority Of the Supreme Court believed

report OH the Cotton Tax bill. follows
the suggestion made in the brief debate
that took place yesterday in the Ssnate.
1t provides that hereafter there shall
neither be any tax on our own cotton.
nor any duty on foreign cotton. Tho
latter clause, it will be observed, rcpeals
that provision of the present tari6 law By
which foreign cotton pays duty of three
cents per pound. The bill will pass both
houses in this shape.
The House Committee on Banking has
substantially agreed to bill authorizing
the several State Legislatures to tax the
shareholders of National Banks, resident
within their respective States.

The Free Press correspondent thus
happily describes the Mock Session in the
House of Representatives the last night
of the session:
Soon after eleven, Mr. Miner moves Il
recess of twenty minutes, and the sleep
ing spectators brighten up. Some of the
members scatter TO the lunch room and
elsewhere, down stairs, but hurry back
TO be in time for the fun.
Soon Gen. Foster takes the vacant
Speakers chair and announces that the
official returns show the gentlemen from
West Haven is elected Speaker, and he
knows that he will be an Abel one. Mr..
Abel comes slowly to the chair. He is Il
demure LOOKING gentleman, with long
hair tucked behind his ears, but with a
twinkle of sport in his eye. He makes a
burlesqus of the stereotype speech of pre-
siding officers on taking the chair, claim
i'm tia sympathy of the House, and re-
minding them of the long-forgotton fact
that "to err is human, which is applaud
ed at each sentence.

without putting it to Il vote. Motion tc

and all are pronounced out of order
under the rules.
