And pressed my Itpn lightly on brow und on rheek.

In the hush of the starlight I still whispered on, And pressed her more close to my breast; Talked sweeter then Korneo, dearer thau Claude, And told her how true love was blest; Os bliss ia a cottuge, of flowers and birds, (Tbaugh I felt at times strange out of joint), When she looked with a smile, and daintily lisped In my ear, "/ can't quite see the point!” I pressed her still closely, I talked still more sweet, Called the stars to look down on our love, Made love rhyme to dove, and kiss rhyme to bliss, And vowed by the heavens above I’d be constant and true if sho'd only be mine; Pressed her lips and caressed her brown locks, When she answered me back, with a rich, saucy laugh, 44 Look’er kere.' ain't yer after tke roeke /” Rkmarkabi.b Movement among the Jews. —The Indian Purtugueza. a Por tugnese journal published in Goa, states that great excitement has been caused among the Jews in Bombay by the pub lication by their pontiff, H. B. Kyon, “member of the family of Aaron,” who has lately come to Bombay from Jeru salem, of a pamphlet under the title of “The Voice of the Vigilant,” the object of this “Voice” being to persuade the Jews that it is useless to wait any longer for the promised Mesiah, as this is Jesus Christ himself, “whose doctrines have been spread all over the world, without sword or force.” The “Voice” is said to use arguments that are solid and conclusive. “Com pare,” says the pontiff, “the Old and New Testaments, and the truth will be seen.” He also adds that he was born in the old law, and under it was elevated to the pontificate ; but the light has already penetrated with its rays into the dead recesses of his mind, and he is, therefore, persuaded, and with well founded reasons, that the Messiah is now looked for. The Prospect. “ Hermes,” the Washington correspondent of the Charleston Mercury, has had an inter view with a personage whose name he is not authorized to divulge, who reassures him in regard to the political future of the country. He recalls the President’s unwavering firmness against overwhelm ing odds, and the cool, determined man ner, in which he has, during the present session, when some persons thought he was crushed, earned out his measures in the case of Sickles, Schofield, and oth ers. This person is of the opinion, that the past guarantees the future, and cites the comparative harmlessness of the civil rights and freedmeD’s bureau bills, as executed by the President, as ample grounds of confidence in what may come hereafter. There is no call for aggres siveness on the part of the President, knowing, as he does, that his steady resistance, and the utter folly of their measures, will wear the Radicals out in time. Impeachment, tcrritorializntion, any excessively radical scheme must fail, for the reason, that both parlies are un der bonds, to three thousand million of dollars to keep the peace. They cannot even seriously risk a collision. At the most, we of the South have ouly to fear a legalist or semi-loyalist change in our State Governments, and even that he doubts. “You cannot forget,” said he, “the President's course at New Orleans, during the convention which met for the avowed purpose of subverting the gov ernment, which Mr. Johnson had author ized the people to form. See. too, how quietly the ‘loyalists’ went under in Bal timore.” “Hermes” says the President stands firm, and has never wavered in his policy toward the South. Tee Coiix Chop. —The monthly re port of agriculture for December, con tains a final estimate of the corn crop of 18(16. The total result is 880,000.- 000 bushels. In the eleven States not hitherto reported, 183,000,000 bushels, against 274,000,000 bushels in 1850.
