Not IA niped.

The burning of the Whittier school
building at Fortress Monroe n short time
since recalls To mind an amusing incident
which occurred there about the close of
the war, says the New York Tribune. AT
that time there vas a mania among
colored people for education, and the
school was made up of all sexes and ages
At the end of a ear an exhibition was
given 10 show what progress had been
made, TO which n number of prominent
people were invited. The teacher stated
that il any persons i'm the audience wished
To ask the students any question they
could do SO. A strapping big fellow, who
wore only a shirt, trousers, and pair OF
government shoes, was called on to read.
He got along very well until he reached
the word ''biped." Here a gentleman In
the audience interrupted when the follow
ing dialogue occurred:
"My man. what is the meaning Of the
word biped?"
"A biped is n BEAST
"why is a beast n biped?'
because il has fou feet"
"Are you a biped?"
"No, SIR"
"Why?"
"Because | hasn't got four feet"
"What are you them"
use a cuped!"
The shout of laughter which greeted
this almost broke up the exhibition.

for; and, TO the disgust of the
expectant garrison Of the besieged fort,
who were watching the scene from the
Parapet, she turned right around, look to
her heels and an hour later had become a
mere speck on the ocean horizon. One Of
the cadet officers afterwards told me that
they all felt greatly relieved AT the quick
departure OF the steamer, as by some
very short OF ammunition and had actu-
ally only half q dozen rounds on hand
when they opened fire. Had the COM
mander OF the Star OF the West been will
ing to take the chances, IL is more than
likely that b might have run the gaunt-
let unscathed.
"This is the true story Of the first gun
OF h war. The redoubt from which Il
was fired was at once christened The
Star OF the West Battery and was known
by that name until three years later, when
Morris Island was finally evacuated by
our forces"
