THE COST OF A JUNKET.

The House had hilarious time day or two
ago, in hearing read the bill of particulars of
the cost of entertaining the Congressional
Board of Visitors to the Annapolis Naval Acad-
envy, year ago. The Board consisted of
three members of Congress, Yale College
professor and two naval officer, and they were
at the Academy three days. The generous
sum of $500 was appropriated for their en-
tertainment, but like the prodigaI son in the
parable, they 'wasted their substance in riot
Gus living SO that when they came to settle
up their bills for their much eating and drink
ing, they found that they hadn't enough left
to pay their own mileage fees, which amount
ed to $409. Of course it wouldn't do to put
in an item for the deficiency bill for convivial
beverages nor for soft shell crabs, mushrooms
and toothpicks. So they carefully paid all
these bills, and sent in deficiency item of
1868 to pay mileage fees. Some curious mem
Der wanted to know what had become of the
$1,000, and called for the items. The bills
were all read and printed in the 'sRecord -
The innocent ones soon ceased to wonder
where all the money had gone to. One of
the bills amounted to over 5000 for xxx
whiskey, Chillingsworth sherry, Appolinaris
water, champagne, ''Old Hennessey," .Pom-
cry Sec" etc. There was another for some
$40 for the more 'innocuous" drinks as the
President would say, Bass ale, ginger ale, beer.
The bill for cigars amounted to $3.50. The
bills for edibles amounted to several hundred
dollars and embraced a1moct ayoru+I;,. IL
hath entered the stomach of man. Other bills
were for gallons upon gallons of milk, cream,
sherbet, Roman punch, egg nog, etc.,
enough to float ship.
