THE BALLAD OF CAPTAIN mCALLA.

With regards to Mr.. Gilbert and regretful mem
cries of good Captain Reece, ''Commandin
OF the Mantelpiece.' -
In all the ships that sail the blue
No captain had q livelier crew
Than B. McCalla-blast his eyes!
Commanding of the Enterprise
He was not chummy with his men,
For B. McCalla, U. s. N,
EXerted his 2uthoritee
In ways remarkable to see
All cheeky sailormen aboard
McCalla smote with heavy sword:
And then, his self-respsct to please,
He ironed them, by twos and threes.
When Louis Meyer smiled at him.
With rage his eagle eye grew dim;
On you'll no more such looks as them
orPll kill youi' said Captain NJ.
'You. bo's'n, put him in the hole
And keep him there, a-passing coal,
And let him smile into the irei''
''I'm damido,' said Louis Meyer.
Between unruly Jaws he set,
For gag. polished bayonet;
And just before he went to dine
He poured cold water down the spine
OF Fireman Walker, for he was
or drunkenness the moving cause:
No man aboard this man-o'-war
He was not an Incorporate man
What one can't do another can
And Fireman Walker could contain
Two bottles of dry champagne;
For breakfast he'd pint Of rum,
Five cocktails and some gin and grumy
OF Bass, dozen punished he
At luncheon ordinarily.
Fer dinner he was wont to take
quart of brandy, neat. and wake
The quiet evening with his yells
About the hour of seven bells.
Now such an influence may be
Unfortunate on men at sea;
They fairly made that good ship hum
With iogging and with rum and grum.
And so they sailed upon the main
To Africa and back again;
The crew kept hosting liquor in
The captain kept his discipline.

ANoted Texan

General Norton, the venerable editor
ofthe Intelligencer at Dallas, a gen
tleman who has probably as large an
acquaintance as any man in the union,
spent Tuesday in this city. The gen.
eral was an editor years before most Of
the present generation Of newspaper
men we're born and bids fair to still
outlive many Of them. Bis flowing
locks, now Of snowy whiteness, have
made him a conspicuous figure at
every republican national convention
since that party appeared upon the
feld Of action, and in spite Of Texas
10000 democratic majority the gen
erai has abiding faith that IN the eter-
nal fitness of things his state will
eventually be feral in the republican
column

CLERK Trott had a much mixed Gaze
before him for adjudication last week
but has unraveled il to the satisfac-
ton of one party out Of three, at least
John w. Mays and wife having re-
solved to part company, II. T. Rich
ardson turned up as owner Of the
Nays place. This condition Of affairs
threatened to battle attempts to secure
alimony and so Mrs. Mays brought the
case before tho authorities. There
was not little conflict in the testi-
mony but the result was decision to
the effect that the place belonged to
Mays and his wife.

Saturday morning Hon. John Cam
bers was found dead in his bed at his
homo near Glaremore. As he was in
his usual health the night before there
WAS no doubt but that his death was
brought on by heart disease. Few
men in the nation we're better known
than John Chambers. For many
years he has stood high in his party
and held offices of trust under this
government, and he filled them we'll.
His life was long, his death quick and
seemingly painless. lie was loved

A Pleasant Tina

The picnic Friday came of with
great eclat. Somehow no engines
could be gotten so that everybody had
to resort to vehicles drawn by horses,
but they fell back upon the old plan
without a murmur, and got there all
the same. Prettier grounds could not
have been chosen. Plenty OF shade,
grass and dry ground made it a pleas
ant place; neither was ice-wster,
dinner, swings, hammocks, croquet
grounds and music wanting. The best
evidence that the day was enjoyed by
all is the fact that nobody thought Of
going home before four O'Clock in the
afternoon.
