Hathorn's Horse Marines.

One of the great practical jokers of
the British navy was one Jack Ha-
thorn. He was officer of the watch in
the day when it was customary for the
guard to present arms TO the officer
commanding the vessel whenever he
left or boarded the ship. One day Cap
tain Burdett remarked as they were
going through this ceremony before he
went ashore: Mr.. HGthorn. am tired
of this guard. Don't call it again when
| come back"
HathOrn did not, but he managed to
surprise the captain quite as thorough
ly as if he had. When that dignitary
came over the side on his return he
found twenty of the after guard down
on their hands and knees with swabS
serving them for names and tails. the
miZZen top men on their backs with
cutlasSes ORA wn. Hathorn himself was
aStride quartermaster. The captain
was distinctly not delighted with the
spectacle. whereupOn Hathorn explain
ed that he supposed that after the old
fashion had proved so tfresome Il
reception by cavalry might prove wei
come. HathOrn was dismissed from
the service for this bit of pleasantly.
