The Owl Teased the Cat.

A pet owl was given the range of tho
house. and soon became very tame, on
good terms with the whole family except
the cat.
His great delight was to torment the
cat. He hectored the poor beast until
an undisturbed nap was something only
to be dreamed of, flying down from some
high perch with speed and silence which
enabled him to scratch his victims nose
and ears and escape in good season. SO
sudden were the attacks that the cat got
no opportunity of revenge until after the
owl died and was mounted. when one
day he tore off the owls head. Whether
he was satisfied that the bird was killed
or was Disguised to find him only tow
and feathers can never be known: but
after that he looked at the owl and the
owl looked at him without enmity.-

THE SPEAKER AND MR.. MILLS.
The Latter CharacterizeS a Ruling of
the Chair as an Outrage.
THE LAND FORFEITURE BILL.
Under Consideration in the Senate This
Afternoon.
SENATE.

After the transaction of some routine morn
ing business of little public Importance the
consideration Of the land forfeiture bill was
resumed. Mr.. Plumb, who has charge Of the
bill, discussed Mr.. Calls amendment as to
lands in Florida, and said that there was no
evidence before the Senate (outside
OF that Senator's statemcnt) that
there was any considerable number of
people on the lands in question.
III the amendment was adopted it would cast
cloud on the titles of all persons to railroad
lands IN Florida; and the bill would be not
bill OF peace and quiet but a bill OF destruc-
tion. He was bound to assume that the legs-
lature OF Florida and the governor of Florida
In certifying that the roads had been built and
the lands earned had acted properly. And he
was bound to believe that nobody's rights had
been trampled upon by those acts. He then
passed on to the general subject.
AN ALLUsIoN TO THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE.
He closed his remarks with an alluson to the
democratic side of the chamber as being infir-
snced in its action by geographical and sec
tional differences.
Mr.. Berry replied to that alhlsion and then
went on to discuss the Florida amendment and
the bill generally. He believed in standing by
the contract.
Mr.. Mitchell-Does the Senator hold that
where a railroad has been completed, but not
within the time limited in the grant and where
an act OF forfeiture has not been passed, the
company is not entitled to the land? ,
Mr.. Berry, have so stated it and restate
it. He went on to say, in defense of democrats
IN Congress. that nine-tenths of the republicans
had voted uniformly against the forfeiture Of
railroad lands earned out of time and
that the democratic House and a majority of
democratic Senators had voted the other way.
AS to the Florida amendment, he said that it
applied to about 100000 acres outside
of the original limit and which had never been
granted to the railroad company or to the state
of Florida, and that of this 100000 acres SO 600
were
OWNED By WASHINGTON LOBBYIST,
who got them fee for his services in the
Interior Department. He charged that the
republican side Of the Senate, in opposing
the amendment was true to its instincts in
favor OF monopOlies.
RECALL OF THE OKLAHOMA BILL.
At this point Mr.. Platt offered a concurrent
resolution (Which was agreed to- requesting the
President to return the Oklahoma bill.
He explained that lowing to an error of his
own the word 'west' had been used in place
of the word ''east' in the description of
boundaries.
Argument on the land forfeiture bill was
then resumed.
