THE UNION RECORD.
A Good Joke on Pater Familias.

Some time back, before the Naval
Academy removed from Annapolis, a
young man from one of the ardent South
ern States fell in love with a maiden Of
that town. He had opportunity to meet
her frequently, and, contrasting the
honey and butter of these stolen inter-
views with the hard-tack of his barrack
life, he determined to pop, embrace and
turn Benedict.
The young lady, equally ardent, was
not 10th but she charged him thus:
"You must not tell papa; he is a
great stickler for law and duty, and
knows that you have no right, being a
cadet, to take any other responsibility.
When you get your commission, which
is all you have to depend upon, We will
parade the fact, but until then we shall
meet when we can, and as six months
will see you with commission in your
hand, there need be no fear of detection.
Besides, as you must marry clandes-
timely, so Will |, and we will keep the
secret in common"
At this time travelling Methodist
preacher was temporarily in the town,
and the twin dissemblers went before
him and joined hands.
Nothing remained but to keep the
secret.
The preacher knew nothing of this,
however, and cursorily let the mouse
out of the trap, SO that an old professor,
who disliked cadets, because they be-
sieged in squads certain pretty daugh-
ter that he had, ascertained the fact,
without ascertaining but one of the
names, and he court-martialed the ca
det Immediately.
Despite the personal entreaties Of the
youth the case was brought up.
He acknowledged the fact, pleaded
guilty, and fell back on the mercy Of
the court.
The old professor aforesaid sternly
objected he stood upon law and good
policy, and called for the lads dismis-
sal.
"You will be taking the bread out Of
my wife's mouth p said the cadet.
81 don't care" said the professor
''let justice be done, though the larder
be empty"
"Do you know the lady's name ="
urged the cadet.
81 don't want to know it t; she isn't
the criminal; it is YOU"
"My wife, sir, is your daughter"
The old gentleman was overwhelmed
with rage and shame.
The court, acting upon his sugges-
ton, and partly with sly malice, struck
the cadets name from the rolls.
So the old gentleman had to pay, fol
a time, the expenses of both daughter
and son-in-law. The lad got back in
to the navy during the rebellion, anC
rendered a GOOD account of himself.

To illustrate the Yankee style of
improving opportunities it is related of
a Northern merchant, who was eating
his dinner at the Battle House. at the
time of the recent explosion at Mobile,
that although badly cut by flying frag
ments of the windows, he managed to
rush to the telegraph Office, and send a
dispatch to his partner to ''ship moth
ing but putty and glrss." This duty
done, he tainted, and has been in a
brain fever ever eidce.

The thoroughbred black stallion
Don Juan, Ridden by General Custer
at the grand review in Washington, is
said to have been taken by him for his
own use without compensation. His
owner is said to have afforded undoubt-
ed proofs of loyalty, whereupon Secre-
tary Stanton gave an order for the
rendition of the animal. He is valued
at nine thousand dollars.

THE editor of the Chattanooga Ga
zette visited the ruins where the fire
occurred in that place a few weeks ago,
and saw boys trying to knock the plugs
out of the shells lying near the late
FIRE, and one poured the powder out
upon the hot bricks. He did not stop
to demonstrate with them.

SUBMITTING THE CASE TO THE
JURY" An immensely funny story is
told, having relation to one of our north
ern country tows. 1t happened in a
Justices Court, and the heroes were a
somewhat grave and very able attor-
ney, and certain ex- Congressman, who
had come down from the Capitoline
Heights to pettifog a case of assault
and battery before the Squire. The
gentleman from California" was abus-
ing the other fearfully, when cold
Chad" rose solemnly and said
"This thing has got to stop right
here; or else | shall submit this case to
the jury :"
The other bucked up after the man
ner of the chivalry, saying that he had
never been backed down by Yankee,
etc.
"Then," said Old Chad, "l'll knock
you down. submit this case to the
jury .r-and at the word, he knocked
the ex-Congressman sprawling among
the jurymen.
After Chiv. got to his feet Chad
shook his head and said:
''You mustn't fool with me, | whipped
three Methodist ministers, a school
teacher and my father, before l left the
backwoods !"
