THE VOYAGE OF THE FATTY TOWN
SEND.

CLNDs
The powerful steam tug, christened Fatty
Townsend for the trip, in honor Of the big
waist of one Of the voyagers, got up steam
at six O'Clock on Saturday evening, and
having been thoroughly provisioned, as well
as watefed, awaited the arrival OF her pas
scngers-delegates from four of, our fire
companies. At 6:l7 ?. NJ. precisely they
stepped on board, and tho Fatty was healed
for Trenton, where they were intent upon
visiting some fire lsddies of that city. Down
the cleek In gallant trim, past the mouth Of
the Brandywine, into the Delaware the craft
glided like sylph. Once there the troubles
of navigation began. Their eyes, unused
to river mists, could not zee either shore,
and 1t was soon discovered that the boat
was describing circle on the river. A
meeting was called, and the ''laudlubbsr'
who was commodore was deposed and put
into the galley to cook, he threatening, If be
had any help. to put the mutineers in irons.
"Land no !" shouted the lookout as the tug
rounded into Naaman's Geek, and like q
breathless man painting, she rested on the
soft nun of the bottom. "Pass that glim
along here ~ roared the new captain. Barry
or Farragut never looked more "owlish"
than he as he lowered the "glim" to the
water's edge. All hands were piped aft,
and then directed to jumpove' board right
smart and push the Fatty into deep water.
The jolly dogs obeyed, aud she foated,
while they scrambled up her sides. Upon
the homeopathic principle, the. swallowed
huge drafts of Ice water to keep off chill.
At six A. NJ. Philadelphia was reached, and
one of the crew ANONYMOUSLY deserted, and
was chased up South street by let of GAM
ins, who had been Informed that he was a
pirate. There was meeting and desertion
at Tacony, as the ratiops, both solid and
liquid, gave out, and short allowance was
or Tered. As only half the voyage had been
completed, short commons were not agree
able.
We have received by special telephone in
formation that the Fatty arrived safely at
Trenton, was attached for salvage by two
Jcrseymen who piloted her out of the rapids
below Trenton Bridge, and that the gallant
c'ew are working their way southwark as
