A NAVY REMINIsCENcE-In the Depart

Ell Navy, whose explorations of the Dead Sea
gave him an extended reputation. The coat
Is apparently the one he wore when he was a
loyal officer and before he became traitor
1t was captured at Elizabeth City, after the
battle of Roanoke Island, by the gunboat
Commodore Barney, commanded by Lieut..
w. Flusser, of Kentucky. The aotila had
been sent in pursuit of the rebel vessels, and
finally found them at Elizabeth City; no time
was lost in chasing, ana when within hailing
distance, Lieut. Flusser hailed to know what
vessel that was.
The reply was that it was the Confederate
vessel Seabird, Commodore Lynch command
ing"
Tell the Commodore to get out his fend-
ers-pm coming alongside" was the answer;
and suting the action to the word, Com
modore Barney put on full steam and struck
the Seabrd amidships, and sunk her; Commo-
dore Lynch had, however, previously made
his escape.

HUI M OROUS.

WIZ FROM THE PULPIr.--It is related Of a
certain New England divine who fiourished
not many years ago, and whose matrimonial
relations are supposed not to have been OF the
most agreeable kind, that one Sabbath morn
ing, while reading to his congregation the par
able of the supper, in which occurs this pas
sage: "And another said i have bought five
yoke of oxen, and go TO prove them; pray
thee have me excused. And another said,
have married wife, and therefore cannot
come"-he suddenly paused at the end of this
verse, drew off his spectacles, and looking
around on his hearers, said, with emphasis,
"The fact is my brethren, one woman can
draw a man further from the kingdom OF heay-
en- than five yoke of oxen,'
The hat was passed round in a certain con
gregation for the purpose Of taking up a col
lection. After it made the circuit of the
church, it was handed to the minister, who,
by the way, had Exchanged pulpits" with
the regular preacher, and he found not pen
ny in it, He inverted the hat over the pulpit
cushion and shook it, that its emptiness might
be known, then raising his eyes toward the
ceiling, he exclaimed, with great fervor, 81
thank God that | got back my hat from this
congregation"

MATCHES MADE BIZ THE SPIRIrs.-The
Preceptor OF certain Academy, genial old
bach, who Is still lingering upon the sunny
aide OF forty, and who was regarded by his
friends as hopeless case, invited spiritual
list TO lecture before his school.
Among the many things the lecturer re-
quested the spirits TO do, was, to move the ia
bic towards that young man in the auditory
who was old enough, and ought to be mar
ried
immediately the table moved directly to-
wards the genial old bach, who seemed sur
prised, confused and slightly pleased.
Being something of genius, and having
spent most OF his days philosophzing, he at
once concluded that the movement of the ia
BILE towards him, indicated the movement OF
At least one heart in the same direction.
Having full faith in his conclusion, and of
course, acting according to it, it did not take
many days TO ascertain whose heart it was
and the result is, that this genial old bach nelo
seems 10 be on the sunny side of thirty, and
Is expected soon to marry Areostook Pio-
neer.
