THE PILOT COMMISSIONERS IN COURT.
An appeal was taken yesterday from the recent
decision by Judge Davis, refusing the application
made by George H. Sisco, Thomas Copneuy and
Charles Cummisky to compel the Board OF Com.
msstoners OF Pilots to number their boat and add
the same TO the list OF pilot boats. Judge DAVIS,
as Will be remembered, held that the Pilot Conn.,
mssloners nave power to limit the number OF
plot boats. and tnat their bylaw afllyIng a limit
TO the boats Is obligatory upon the pilots. The
appellants, VINO are licensed pilots, OF skilled ex.
perience. recently built for themselves a new boat
but, although submitting 10 the Commissioners a
petition signed by nearly all OF the lead.
ing shipping merchants and shipowners OF
the CITY, failed 10 obtain permission 10
use their new boat except on the terms specified
by the commissioners, which te.y regard as moth.
ing more than an llliberal and OdiOus monopoly
obedience to this monopoly, 1t Is claimed, would
compel them either to hire and run the old boa,S
Bile boat Tor an Old ana unseawOrthy one. There
are now twenty-five pilots. Adding the new boat
TO the list OF pilot boats would not increase the
lst OF Pilots, but lessen the profits OF the "rlng'
boats, ana this Is the real reason, as alleged OF
the opposition. why The Pilot commissioners re.
luse to grant their request. The pilots named do
legally, and, II they latl in the courts say they VIII
carry the matter to the Legislature.

The Tramp Up A Tree.

In recent article in the FARMER occurs
the remark that talented teachers are requir-
ed in backward schools. A good idea, but
one which cannot well be practiced where the
committees get frightened out Of their wits
at an owl, and superintendent are so over
stocked with wit that they publish the flying
gossip about those they have licensed to teach.
The writer would like TO tell "a. W." in
the Bradford Opinion, be he the gentleman
who owns that name, or another that the
