AN INVOLUNTARY PILGRIMAGE.

A passenger on board the screw steamer Araxes
writes to a contemporary as follows :
The screw steamer Araxes left the dock at Liverpool on
the 24th of February, but was so deep that she had to dis-
charge a pa-t of her cargo into lighters before doing so.
This was again put on board in the stream, and she finally
sailed on the 25th. She encountered very heavy weather,
and put into Lisbon for coal. From Lisbon she went toTan-
giers, where there was awaiting her a cargo of Hadji, or
Mahommedan pilgrims, bound for Mecca. As we entered
the bay we could see them encamped on the sandy beach,
under their tents, in hundreds. One hundred or so had
already engaged their passages to Alexandria in this ship
for 6 dols. a head. Many more wished to go, and, as there
were no other ships in the bay, the rate was raised to 10
dole. a head. The day after our arrival was so stormy and
the roadstead so open that there was little communication
with the shore. On the next day (10th of March) the wea-
ther moderated, and the Hadjis began to come alongside in
boats. The ship was already so deep that during the pas-
sage the sea was frequently dashing over the decks, which
were encumbered besides with two 45ft, steel boats for the
Pasha of Egypt, two large Blakeley gun carriages, and a
quantity of oil casks. A slight alteration of the cargo now
took place. The ladies cabin, which had been filled with bale
goods, was emptied to make room for those Hadji who were
able to pay cabin fare. Some of the bales were put into the
hold, and to make room for them there a number of large
crates of crockery were taken up, as not being so liable to be
damaged with salt water, and were placed on end upon the
deck in front of the poop, and close upon the cabin door)
leavirg only a narrow passage by which we could ge', access
to the poop ladder. With no other preparations than these
for their -receptiisn, the pilgrims came pouring on board, with
their bags of millet, cracked wheat, and other grain for the
voyage, their cooking stoves and charcoal, mats and water
skins, which often burst as they were chucked on board.
One of the mates was stationed in the gangway, stick in
hand, to take the tickets and to lay hold of all guns, pistols,
and knives which the Hadjis could not conceal. Moving
along the main deck soon became impossible. Every foot of
it was occupied by a multitude squatted in Eastern fashion
on the top of their baggage. The forecastle, also, was covered.
The only communication with the forward part of the ship
was by the bridge or plank gangway, and this, too, was

the sailors, who were irritated at the sort of work thrust
upon them without extra remuneration.
Early on the morning of the 11th the steamer was obliged
to leave the Bay of Tangiers during very severe weather.
Torrents of rain fell. In crossing the Straits she shipped
several heavy seas. The poor creatures on deck were soaked
with rain, and were literally floating in the lee scuppers;
the bales of slippers, by the sale of which their owners had
hoped to pay their way, destroyed and their provisions da-
maged; mothers with their young infants exposed without
protection to the pelting of the pitiless storm. At Gibraltar
the ship was delayed for two days, and here the only thing
that was done for the Hadjis was the purchase of 10s. or 15Es
worth of planks, to make a stage outside the ship's side for
the most necessary purposes—but how many landsmen
would venture on such a place may easily be supposed.
We left Gibraltar on Friday, the 15th March, with a fair
wind, and had a favourable passage till Sunday afternoon,
when the wind began to increase and the sea to rise, till at
last it blew a whole gale. We began to get uneasy. The
vibration of the screw, the banging of the rudder, and the
heavy blows of the sea made the whole stern shake again,
Many were the anxious visits to the barometer—it was still
falling. The Aneroid vibrated visibly to the eye during the
heavy gusts of the gale. Bright sheet-lightning astern,
ahead, and on the beam, made the horizon visible for a mo-
ment—otherwise the darkness was appalling. Above the
howling of the gale rose the piteous cries of the
Hadjis, call for the captain or appealing to Allah and
their Prophet as the big seas broke over them.
Every one was solemnised, for many knew that if the ship
broached to or was pooped hundreds of these poor creatures
would be swept into the deep. The ship would drive on, and
leave them struggling helplessly in the dark waters. The
captain was worn out with anxiety and sleeplessness. Hu-
manly speaking, the lives of all these hundreds hung upon
him. He felt it, and he did his duty, calmly, intelligently,
resolutely. No lover ever sighed for his mistress as did all
hands for the blessed dawn, It came at last, and the uni-
versal exclamation of the officers of the ship was that they
wondered that the poor creatures en deck were still alive.
There they lay, on the top of their baggage, drenched with
rain and salt water, worn out and silent now. They looked
like heaps of wet and dirty flannel rags. It was difficult to
say what was a human being and what was a bale of goods.
One poor fellow sat squatted on his mat bag of millet as on
an island, the water that the ship had taken in washing
around him. On seeing himself observed by one of the pas-
sengers, he pointed piteously with both hands to the ruin of
his earthly goods, gave a look of unutterable despair, drew
his hood over his face, and resigned himself to his fate. Is
it right to take these men's money and do so little for their
comfort ?
As no evil is quite unmixed with good, the constant wash
of the water carried away much of the filth and impurities
which in calmer and warmer weather accumulate to such a
degree as to become both offensive and dangerous. The
spread of infectious diseases is in this way prevented, and
yet even in the most favourable circumstances such diseases
will break out. Aniong our own numbers this has been
the case. A few Jewish families occupy a small platform
on a level with the bridge. A little child of one of these
families was observed to be in a very bad condition.
Smallpox was suspected. The face and eyes of the infant
were so swollen as to render it featu'eless. Red spots
covered its body. Presently the pustules began to appear,
and the disease revealed itself. The mother who carried
this child in her arms was surroundnd by other mothers
with their children closely packed around her. True to her

was taken from her a few minutes after its death. The
eailors wound it up in a piece of canvas, with a piece of iron
in the little bundle to sink it, and slid it over the bows into
the deep. It was deeply affecting to see the mother wailing
and rocking in the Jewish fashion in her bitter grief. No
one told the captain of this death. It was understood, even
among the Hadjis, that it should be concealed, for if known
to him the captain was bound to report it at the next port,
and this would put the vessel into quarantine. Formerly
the practice was for the authorities themselves at each port
pilgrims, and in this way to
to count the numbers of the
detect any death. This practice has been given up, and in
its stead the responsibility is thrown upon the capfain to
declare what sickness or death has taken place. But were
all the deaths that actually occur reported a serious check
would be put upon the trade. How this evil is avoided the
captains engaged in this traffic can tell; but it seems to us
unfair to them to place them in the position which they
now hold.
But the crew is subjected to greater temptations than
their commanders. During the captain's absence, as we lay
in the harbour of Malta, a serious affair broke out between
the sailors and the pilgrims, which caused the intervention
of the police. A party of the pilgrims alleged that they had
given the sailors 18 dole to let them into their berths on the
forecastle, where they might find some shelter, but that
after having occupied them for a few days they were turned
out to make room for others, from whom some like remune-
ration was obtained. The sailors denied the charge, but
none of us doubted the story of the pilgrims. We knew
that a dollar was slipped into the hands of some of our own
number, with the hope that some degree of additional com-
fort might be secured, that it was but natural that they
should deal with the sailors in the same way, and equally
natural that the sailors, hindered and hampered in their
work, should try to remunerate themselves for their
extra trouble by taking from the Hadji all that
they could get, without being very careful or indeed capable
of rendering any return. Bute however it was, the quarrel
in this instance became serious. Knives and swords were
drawn,
happily
without any bad result. It can easily
be a
gtwhat a false position towards each other five
rimna, butned i n
sailors in the one watch and six in the other, in whose
hands the menagement of the vessel lies, stand to the 500
pilgrinasbywhomthey are surrounded. No means of
communication between them existing, there is often no-
thing for it but shoving the Moors aside in a way that na-
turally creates irritation. Again, we have to ask, is it right
to subject our sailors to the demoralising influences of a
system which has such a tendency to turn them in o ex-
tortioners and tyrants?
We are quite aware that the trade in carrying these pil-
grims is not confined to one firm, and that all the other
Liverpool shipowners having vessels in this line partake of
it. But it is the magnitude to which it has attained, and
the certainty of its continuance, which make it such an
believe as 10,000 of these
conveyed in British ships to and
port of western Africa.
