A Kiss ON the Sly.

There is to be found much refresh
ment in a well.prOpoytioned kiss. Thi,
much everybody acknowledges though
only "a frank few have the courage 10
acknowle 1ge 1t openly. And it Is a
curious iaet, yet unexplained by the
philosophers, that the silver the kiss is
the more there is in it Of refreshment.
A kiss that Is paid as forfeit before a
whole room full Of people IS prosaic,
not to say embarrassing. The girl
laughs which spols The romance, and
the fellow. len TO one, blushes-neither
OF them thinking much OF It, and they
both are apt pretty soop 10 forget about
il. But let the same fellow kiss the
sane gill when nobody is looking, aud
the situation is as different as possible.
That sort OF y kiss fired of III n hurry
behind the door or in conservatory IS
like an electric shock, aud is as sweet
ss cream. The taste OF IL holds on and
constantly suggests the proprieIy, as
the case may be-of trying Ii again.
And the laughing and FLUSHING are ex'
aclly reversed. The fellow laughs
without spelling the romance bit. aud
the girl bushes like pink carnatlou.
Itis queer that the very same thiag
should. under such slightly altered cir
cumslances, be SO entirely different,
is any Tho less queer because the differ
ence has existed from The earliest age OF
the world.

A VOLTS Love.

a story Of VOLTS affection for a
man 10 told by f. Cuyier. The animal
had been brought up like puppy. and
continued with its owner until full
grown, when 1t was presented to the
menagerie at Paris. For seycral weeks
il was so disconsolate at the separation
from its master, who had been obliged
to travel, and 50 persistently declined
food. that it was feared it would die.
Eventually, however, its grief modern
ted, it took food, and was supposed to
have forgotten its former owner. But
at the expiration of eighteen months
the master returned; the wolf recog-
nized his voice amid the crowd in the
gardens, aud upon being released from
confinement bounded toward him,
exhibiting violent joy. Again separa.
ted from its master, the faithful creature
was once more afflicted as on the
former occasion. until after an absence
of three years the object of its affection
revisited the gardens. 1t was evening,
aud the VOLTS den had been shut up tor
the night; but the instant the mans
voice was audible the poor animal began
to utter such anxious cries that the door
of it's cage was opened. when it darted
towards its friend, leaped upon him aud
caressed him. and threatened the keep
ers when they attempted to separate
them. When its old master finally
left It, the animal became i'll. refused
all food, and although it recovered after
long time, It grew fierce and resented
the famillarties Of all strangers. Aiter
having once given ITS affection, II
seemed to scorn any further objects OF
| friendship.

lieye the time has come when, by m honest and
economical administration OF the government, tne
burden Of war taxes which the people nave so long

Of the Republican Congress to reduce taxes on these

Can we reconcile these declarations9
Subdivision sixth of section 1914, of
the revised statutes of the United States,
fixes the duty to be paid by dealers in
leaf tobacco, and provides that:
"No farmer or planter shall be required to pay
special tax as dealer In leaf tobacco, for selling to-
bacco OF his own production, tobacco received by
him as rent from tenants who have produced the
same on his land !: Proyided, that nothing in this
section shall be construed to exempt from special
tax any farmer or planter who, by peddlhg other
erwise sells leaf tobacco at retail directlyto con-
sumers." 8
This law wasenacted by.a Republican
Congress, and as one of its acts is ap-.
proved by Col. Brigham. For a viola
ton, even technical, a very heavy PEN
atty is attached, and under it several Of
our own citizens, among them John
Beck, Of Ridgeville township, Simon Har-
old, Of Harrison township, and Morgan
Blue. of Marion township, were prose-
cuted and subjected to severe penalties
in the United States courts for selling,
in ignorance OF this law, small quanti-
ty OF leaf tobacco to their neighbors.
In the last Congress, when the sham
effort to reduce taxes was being made in
that body, and bill introduced to reduce
the tax on spirituous liquors and tobac-
cos, Mr.. Dibrell, Democratic member
from Tennessee, offered an amendment
to the above section Of the statute, as
follows; s&sg HI
\
aThat so much Of thes!xth clause of section 3244
Of the revised statutes Of the United States as i'm
poses fine or penalty any farmer producer of
tobacco who may sell the same to consumer be,
and the same Is hereby repealed; and hereafter eli
farmers or others producing tobacco shall be al-
lowed to sell Of their own or their tenants production
without any license or penalty whatever.
Al vote was taken on leave of Mr..
Dibrell to introduce this amendment,
and failed for want yof I two.third ma
jority. Ofthe 113yeas only IS were Re
publican, Updegraf the only one from
Ohio. OF the 90 nays all but one were
Republican. l,e1 All ts
Thus, this same Republican party
which originally enactedrthis+ offensive
outrage on the farmer, refused 70 right
the wrong when an opportunity was Of
fered, and this. an act Of the Republican
party, Il approved BY Col. Brigham.
Please reconcile this with his friendship
