always fa-11 everybixly that they are

is too freah. Reporters never fake to
hurt anybody's feelings. Once an ed

Chicago to do some work for his paper. I
After a while the reporter forgot to send
anything about.an important matter,

be sent a dispatch to the reporter say
ing,; “I’lMuare Why did

When the reporter read this he laughed !
to himself and said ; •• I wonder if that j
old plum thinks ho can get the beat of 1
me? ” So he wrote the longest kind Xf‘
an answer, explaining all about the mat
ter, and closed by saying he was glad
he had lieen discharged, because he die- '
liked to l»e connected with a paper that
allowed iuelf to get seuip d. It took
I’ftio words to say this, and, as it was
wnt by telegraph, the Cincinnati editor
bad a pretty big bill to pay. But it j
taught him never to ask for explana- '
tions by telegraph again, and that Chi- ;
cago reporters were pretty liable to keep '
up with the procession.

The forenoon watch is nearly over ;
seven belL—halLpast 1J —have been
mxiu Jack dines when hs
is at Logac. It is beef and '• duff" day ;
Yesterday there were jiea-aoup and pork.
Tlui ‘‘duff". was made an hour or twe
ago, and, not bemg a Chnstinae plum
pudding, the skill required to prepare if
was not considerable ; for when the oooii
rhnd akuumol off tha greasy from th®
water in the ooppers and mixed it with
♦lour, and worked the whole into a paste,
and ptttto-liito a oonteal
canvas bag, closely resembling a man’s
nightcap of fifty years ago, nothing re
mained to complete Jack's pudding but
to bpd to |t v »ow boti«d and ready
for Jack to eat, aa4 So la Hie be<<.
The beef is forked out first from the
copper and thrown into a mesa-kid;
then the pudding is fished out and
dvopjied Mrto coldrwater, after which the
bag is opened, aad the pudding slides
net of it ahd fails rather heavily into
another kid. A boy or ordinary sqaman
from each watch lays hold of the kids
lielonging to his mass, and convey®
I them into the forecastle, by which tune,
jght bells having texin made by the
‘tkipper’s sextant, all hands assemble in
Ihe forecastle, and dmner begins. Tliere
is never very much ceremony iu Jack's
home, though what etiquette there is is
very imngent In this forecastle there
>. are no tables. The men help themselves,
! cutting off a junk of beef and a lump of
dnff with their sheath knives, each mau
judging—and judging vary accurately—
how much he should take, so that hs
may not come off better nor worse than
his matfe, and walking away with his tin
j plate either to hia bunk or to a sea-chest,
or wherever else he may feel disposed to
j sit
Ono may Maliy conceive that Jack's
apjietite is usually very good ; and
though the fames from the meat-kids
are deculedly -more greasy than most
i land-going palates would relish, aud<
though the beef might seem to have a
i queer color, and though the duff strong
i'vreseiTdtiws a mass of putty after it hax
been turned about by the hands of a
glazier, yet one can only earnestly hope,
' for the sake of ths poor fellows who sit
in all sorts of places anil attitude®,
munching the queer repast with more or
I k-ss avidity, that the meat and the pud
dings ur« to Jack's taste, and that bring
t as they both are—that quality not hav
ing been diminished by the salt water iu
i which they were boiled—nothing more !

The sense of touch, when highly

their fingers almost as readily as others
