The Old Nan Of the Sea

Thursday night a party, composed
of the young men employed ia Frank
Harra's shop. concluded to 90 out on
the beach with their lines and nets
and have nice bit of time taking
in the magnificent red-ish that pop
ulate the Gulf in great numbers.
They went to the east-end, and were
having splendid time. The fish
bit beautifully, aud by eleven o'clock
they had consumed all the bait with
which they had provided themselves.
Three of the young men gathered
their cast-nets and started for the
khannel in the rear OF the Hospital
I to'catch moro. When they had got
" tf aaa far as the foot of Avenue !, one
81 kem called the attention Of his
81 enions to . strange object they
Viking along the beach. They

height q about sixty feet, and when
he was full straight he snorted, and
a streak of fire few out of his eyes,
and mouth, and nose, and ears. A
little boy named Tom screamed out:
% Lordy! and was instantly seized
with something like buck ague.
Hnteeth ratified in his head, and his
ewes gave forth that wild glare that
betokened great internal fear. The
old Man made sort of STOPPING
start for the fishermen, and they
started for safety, crying for help
and praying for a large quantity Of
Divine protection against the peril
by which they were pursued. The
chase was O brilliant one for nearly
half q mile, the odd Man putting
in his best licks, and the boys COM
ing down to the necessities of the
OCCASION, were making remarkable
time. Tho odd Man groaned again
and the elements were fairly aglow
with the glare of the flames that shot
forth from the orifce in his head.
They passed a lot Of young men who
had stripped off their clothing and
were fishing out in the water in O
nude condition. These fishermen
also got a glimpse of the horrible ap.
partition that was giving chase to the
fugitives, and they also joined in the
flight. At last. Tolex's Garden was
reached, and the old Man retire 1
to his home in the deep, baffied in
his hopes of having two young mel
for his breakfast. The last party
weet back to get their clothing. but
the Old Man had taken them along
and 50 they returned to the city clad
in short clothing.
This is . true story, and last night

to see II they could secure the cap

1t is not as generally known as 1t ought to
be, that among the many important services
rendered by Gen. John Stark during the Re-
evolutionary war, that he was member Of
the board of general officers who composed
the court martial that tried and sentenced
Major Andre, the West Point spy, who suf.
fered fate that would have been meted out
to Benedict Arnold, the real traitor and cul
prit, if he. Arnold had not by proving trai.
tor to his new friends as well as his country
escaped,
Among the names associated with General
stark's, were Gen, Green, Gen. st. Clair
Gen. Lafayette, Baron Steuben and othel
noted generals of the army, There wert
thirteen voting members Of the trial board
Six voted that Major Andre should be hung
Six others, among whom we think was Gen
Stark, voted that he should be shot. Gen
Green, the president, gave the casting vote
and decided the question, in accordance will
which the lamented Major was hanged as
spy.

The trouble has begun again. Just as one
worthy and honored young colored gentle
man has graduated from West Point. and
entered service in the army, congressman
Muller's committee named by him to hold a
competitive examination, to select boy in
his New York city district, best fitted by ed
vocational attainment and natural physique,
to be appointed as a cadet in the West Point
military school, have found themselves re-
quired, under the rules and necessary pro-
prieties which govern them in their duties,
to give the honOrs of the selection to a young
New York negro, a pupil in the public schools
of that city. There were eleven competitors
the committee were emphatically anti-neRro
but the cOlored boys superiority over all
competitors, so clearly established his right
that the committee with manliness which
does them honor, gave to him the position
which he earned. By and by such events
may not be uncommon nowadays they are
quite rare.

Gen. Stark began his life of warfare too
early to give much attention to educatiOna
or literary requirements Of later m anhOod
He was vigorous but sometimes a careless
writer. In letter Of congratulation to the
commanding General of the American army,
written on receiving the news of the surren-

ed the glorious event TO be announced by
discharge of fourteen cannon, and of like
number of platoOns, in honor of the United
States of America, the fourteenth discharge
being for Vermont
The muskets of the fourteen patriotic pla-
toons were probably all that were "dis-
charged" in addition to the like number of
cannon, on that jubilant occasion.
