ON BLOCKADE DUTY.
TIR£30ME AND MONOTONOUS WORK FOR THE NAVY.
An O/Kfer's Story of the Blockade of Havana Harbor—Under Morro Castle Ererx Sight With Order* Not to Shoot—Luxuries Often Wanting.
(Special
Correspondence.]
NEW YORK,
Sept 12.—If there is one
tbiu^ above all others that the officers and cneu attached to the warships dislike, it is to do blockading doty, which at the best grows tiresome and monoto nous. Not only this, but from the reports of some of the officers and men attached to the vessels that were doing blockading daty off Havana for some time they were deprived of many of the ordiuary thiugs that goto make life worth living on the warships in times of war. There is considerable work to be done, and a close watch has to be kept at all times. There is little excitement, and that only when some ship tries to pass the line and run the blockade. Therein little pleasure to befoand in life on board ship in wartimes, and especially if the trouble is in the tropics. "Wo wero doing blockading duty off Havana from the time the orders were received to close the Cuban ports until Commodore Watson relieved us, and the danged thing was not only tiresome, but wo had to do a great deal of extra work and were deprived of many of the little --:nfort8 that go to make up for the heat," said one of the officers of the flagship Now York a few. days ago.

They probably didn't have very much after wo started to shut them off, but it is no joke when 1 tell you that they had a great deal more than we had, and their comforts were more than ours. In fact, I don't know anybody on board this ship that had anything that even looked like a comfort, and if anybody trios to tell you different don't you believo him. "I have forgotten just when we started to do duty off Havana, but I know wo had a long siege of it, and there wasn't a man on the ship that was sorry win we got ordets to move out. Yon \v::n't to know about 24 hours of it? Wt'll, when we were not chasing some ship, we wero lying eloau in under Morro. There was nut a light on any of the vessels, and we groped around in the dark. Half the time we did not have enough to eat: not that there wasn't plenty of food, but it was so hoi we just couldn't eat. All the battle ports were kept closed and the tires in the cooking ranges put out. The men wero satisfied with ship's broad and coffee, although they got their regular rations whvn they wanted them. During the day we remained offnhoro just far enough to catch anything that might happen to come out of the harbor. A soon as night came on wo closed in, taking a position within a short, distance of Mono Castle and the water batteries along the shore. Wo could boar the sentries on Morro call out tInhalf hours and the 'all's well.' That used to make our blood boil. We wanted to get crack at them, but they didn't jjjvi' us a chance, and thiol© Sam Wfi .,n't let us do any shooting at the fy.Vt-
At night the guard was doubled and 1« v.ts laced in every part of the si, bttaiu was kept up all the time js. could move in a minute if necessary, nnd wo chased everything with sail or steam that came in sight. Everybody on boj.nl the vessel from the captain down to the pay clerks did deck Jntv aud stood watches. The officer of the deck took his statiou on the bridge, aud he usually had two cadets with hhu besides the signal men and the quartermaster. Whet ever men con Id be stationed we had them, aud nothiug escaped us. Day after day we stood in close to shore without- seeing anything but our own ships, and when night csime on we did not see them, for there was not light on the whole tieet. We spike few vessels and only used our electric signals when it was necessary. "Tfce first 34 hours afforded us more excitement than any of the rest of the time wo remained near Havana. Thai was because the duty was new, and we expected to have a lively time not only in chasing blockade runuers, but with the forts. We soon grew tired of the whole business, and as the days drag ged along they were
\v. rh became methodical. We had some exciting times wlum we chased and capturn! few Spanish vessels, but take it all iu all blockading is tiresome du-

Entertaining the Coppey.
It was a bitter cold night, and a night policeman in Lombard*street noticed a light in the bank window, and, going to the door, rapped. "Is that yon, policeman2".asked a voice from within. "Yes,'1 was the reply. y"* "Come in and have a drink," said the voice.
The policeman stepped inside and en countered a dapper little fellow sitting at a desk. "I've been detained tonight straight erring up accounts."
The policeman warmed himself at the rousing Cr v1 "ed on the hearth and went out on his beat An hour after the policeman came that way and, still seeing the light through the window, rapped again. "Is that yon, policeman?" "Yes." "Come in and.warm yourself."
The policeman accepted the invitation. "It's a howling cold nightyIVsaid the clerk. "You're right, sir," said the police man.
So be got another drink and returned to his beat. He was rather surprised next day to find that his friend of the night before had got off with some $50,000 of the bank's funds.—London Success.
An Attack on Sevastopol.
From where I was stationed I could see the dentse masses of the attacking columns advance up the slope. Then the torrents of grape which met them would obscure their ranks for a mo ment and hardly a man would be seen to remain. I at one time saw a body of men many hundreds strong so complete ly swept away by one discharge that only a few of the rear rank remained when tho iron storm went past! The dead and dying could bo clearly distinguished lying in piles on the hillside, and over their prostratB bodies fresh troops crowded on to meet the same fate. Many a manly heart and nervous arm went down in the deadly struggle on that green hillside. No valor availed. Tho cannon's force was greater than the strength of man.
How many ardent hopes were extinguished How many home circles destroyed and lives rendered miserable by tho havoc of that hour none can tell, no more than they can imagine the bodily agony or tho grief for home and friends which was there endured I What would be tho value of what is called "glory" if weighed on the field of battle among tho dead?—Good Words.
AltamA or Altamaha?
There can, I suppose, be no doubt that in the lines in "The Deserted Village"— To distant olimes,
dronry Boene,
Whore half tho convex world Intrudes between, Through torrid tracts with fainting Btops they fe*o

murmurs
to their woo—
Goldsmith j-i alluding to the River Altamaha in Get :,i I l.o colonization of which had taken place not long before. But his expressions are not very accurate. So far from being torrid iu the strint sense of tho word, the latitude of tho mouth of tho Altamaha is more than 81 degrees. No part indeed of the present United States is located within the tropics. But, besides this, although there are certainly rntilesuakes and, believe, scorpions of ace rtain species in Georgia, there are no tigers thero to "wait their hapless prey," which the poet reckons among the horrors of the region when some of the iii rbitants of Auburn havo gone.—Notes tu: tl Queriea
Snow Tlint In Alive,
A most cur iocs phenomenon in the northwest of Canada is the appearance of millions of minute bhiik insects whenever a thaw occurs.
During the winter tho snow is dry and crisp like sand, and nothing whatever can be discovered of these insects, but as soon as a thaw tvnies they are found everywhere iu large patcheq, looking like a dusting of soot.
Thcy*are generally known as snow fleas or snow lice and have slight hopping powers, being able to vp some three or four inches. They entirely disappear when it freezes, agaiu, and not a traco of them can be found.
They do not fall with the snow as there may have been no snow for a month or more beforo their arrival and are probably analogous to the "red snow" of arctic regions.
Second Ttm« la Oat.
The hotel stood on a corner cf a main street and a comparatively unfrequented side street. One evening I overheard the little old black man talking very savagely with another around the corner on the side street, and ariSong other thiugs he said: "Yes, suh. an ef I bits you dey vroan' be but two licks struck. I'll hit you au you'll hit do groun*. "You done he&h what I say."—Denver Post.

"Yourwife has such a liquid voice," said Mr. F. admiringly to Mr. T. "Yes that's a pretty good name fcr it," replied Mr. T.
Mr. F. looked up inquiringly, and Mr. T. added immediately: "Don't you

Everybody on the ship says the same thing about blockading duty, aud as the flagship had more opportunities to move from one port to auother it must have During the siege of Pari* no fewer been particularly uninteresting fear the! than 22,000,000 letters sailed out of tho officers and crews of thes other ships city in the 54 balloon* dispatched bewhich "stood off Havana, tween the ISth of September.

The Rates of the Honse.
"How can I learn the.rules of the house?" asked a newly elected J/xsh member of the late Mr. Parnell. "By breaking them," was the prompt reply of the Irish leader, who, as is well known, spoke from experience on the point. But few members would care to adopt that heroic method of obtaining the desired knowledge, and their task in mastering the rules is rendered all the more difficult by the r---ious fact that many of these regnk^tl^s are unwritten.
Some will be found in the standing orders, or permanent rules but those that deal with etiquette and dec... am have not been officially recorded anywhere, save in a few qnaint and obsolete regulations to be found in the old issues of the jojirnals of the house or in the minutes of proceedings taken by the clerk and published daily during the session.
For instance, a strange rule for the guidance of the speaker is set down under the 15th of February, 1620, "The speaker not to move his hat until the third congee." Propriety of carriage in leaving the chamber is thus enforced, "Those who go out of the house in a confused manner before the speaker to forfeit 10 shillings." Thisrule is dated the 12th of November, 1640. Again we find that on the 28d of March, 1698, it was ordered, "No member to take tobacco into the gallery or to the table sitting at committees."—Nineteenth Century.
Useful SI wash Dogs.
If you are going to prospect in Alaska and expect to travel much, a pair of good "Siwash" dogs are vory essential —almost indispensable. These dogs greatly differ from our domesticated dogs, taking to the harness like a duck to water. They do not bark at strangers. They are kind and affectionate, showing the wolf in them only among their kind. It seems to be against their principles to get off the trail to let another teain pass.
This moans a fight, an exciting episode if the teams number fivo or six dogs each. In an instant the wildest confusion takes place. Dogs, harness and each driver with a club in his hand Form one grand jumble from which order enn only be restored' by some of the dogs being knocked senseless. The dogs are trained to "gee" and "haw," like nn ox aud stop at the word "whoa!" "Mush" is the word used generally by the whites to indicate go ahead, a perversion of the Indian word "husch." The dogs prefer their master, but if lent for use they work as faithfully as for their master,—San Francisco Chronicle.
Damaging.
A Chicago politician—a veteran in the ranks—was recently accused by a formor henchman of having offered him a bribe of $500 to do a job for him. Tho wily "second fiddle" kept the $500 and afterward brought it in evidence against his formor chief. While the scandal was being blown about town an acquaintance of the accused met him one day and slapping him good naturedly on the back said chaffiugly: "Well, John, so you were going to drop $500 in Bill's way, were you?"
The politician colored, or, to speak accurately, his already florid complexion took on a pnrplo tinge, as ho said by way of explaining his agitation (his original language is revised): "Now, I don't give a hang for the talk about bribing him. That ain't nothing. But it hurts my reputation to have my friends think I was such a clam as to give that heeler $500 when I could have bought him with a ham 1" —New York Commercial Advertiser.
Forgot Something.
Helen nnd her father and mother were dining in a hotel, and Helen* who was years old, had never before dined in a public place,
Tho waiter was so attentive and courteous that Helen's mother said that he must be tipped at the end of the meal. Tho word tipped was one Helen had never heard used except in connection wth a dump cart on her father's promises. When they got up to leave the dining room, sbo said: "Oh, papa, papal You forgot to dump tho waiter!"—Youth's CompaiF ion.

Hicks—Wheeler and Brassey met for the first time yesterday, and they got on together famously. They kept up their talk until late in the evening.
Wicks—What were they talking about? Hicks—Bicycles and golf.
Wicks—But Wheeler doesn't know the first thing about golf. Hicks—Neither does Brassey know anything about bicycling. But that makes no difference. Each kept it up on his favorite topic without listening to the other.—Boston Transcript.

Sfcv^Uhness.
The essence of snobbery lies in a superficial vww of life which confounas a man with his. external conditions. I humbly confess that it is snobbery which causes in me a slight feeling of amusement whes I see in a certaio church a stalwart jxxiceman in his fpfe' vate capacity acting as usher, and w. measured tread marching up the alsie with the worshipers in tow. It is snobbery pure and simple which has effected in me a sudden diminution of solemnity when I have seen a popular dispenser of Eoda water leading the singins. For I see in each case the acci'lei^tal, the irrelevant rather than the real, the essential—the stamp of occupation rather than the man.
So, too, there was a dusky propeller of a handcart, who used to pass under my windows calling "Kebbagel Kebbage!" who became In my eyes investeu with a shade of absurdity when I learned that he was the chief soloist of a prominent negro church. I have viewed the cemetery lot of a well known butcher oontaining a row of fivo small graves and felt a disposition to smile at the five small lambs surmounting them.
And yet there was nothing really incongruous iu any of those cases, unless in that of the butcher's favorite emblem of innocence, and even that only argued a freshness of feeling which is somewhat unusual.—Lippinnott'a.

A Weighty Question.
The story is told of gilded youth of Chicago whose father employed a private tutor to ram algebra into the young man's head.
In order to simplify the "plus" and "minus" tho tutor used the familiar illustration of the counting of years from the birth of Christ. "Now, for instance, we spenlr of so many years A. D. or in the year of our Lord," he said. "Those years counting from the birth of Christ we may consider as the plus units. The years counting back one by one beforo the birth of Christ we may take to bo tho minus units. Now, suppose I ask you the question, How many years elt'pse between the date 10 B. C. and 10 A. D.?" "Lot mo get that straight," said the young man.
Tho question was repeated. He sat in deep thought for several moments and then said: "Well, now, I'll tell you, I could answer that if I only knew in what year Christ was born."—Chicago Record.
