be accomplished. He was followed by
Col. Littler, of Davenport, Ia, in an

An .,asy Position.

The attention of young men who de-
sire ali easy place is called to the bust
ness of New York pilot, which is thus
described in the Century:
The responsibility devolving on a
pilot and the extent of his qualifications
may be partly appreciated when one
learns that Immediately on boarding
vessel, he takes command, and is ans
werable for any accident until he has
discharged his duty of taking the vessel
in or out of port. IF any mishap be-
falls the ship at that time, be is liable to
have mis- license revoked, and thus lose
all further opportunity Of plying his
vocation. The New York pilot must,
therefore, for the good ofall concerned,
pass through long and rigorous course
of training. He must serve, man and
boy, before the mast till he masters
every problem in the management Of
every form OF rig. To this tie must add
thorough knowledge of navigation.
Then he must contrive to obtain the
position Of boat-keeper, or pilots mate.
In that capacity, he must We three
full years on one pilot-boat before he
can be admitted for his examination
for license. If through ill-fortune he
lose his position, he must begin de nopo,
and serve the full time on another boat.
Sometimes boat-keeper serves nine

Friction Of the BODY.

One of the most gentle and useful
kinds of exercise is friction of the body,
either by the naked hand, piece of
flannel, or, what is better still, a flesh
brush. This was in great esteem among
tina ancients, and is so at present in the
East Indies. The whole body may be
subjected to this mild operation, but
chiefly the abdomen, spine or ckbone,
and the arms and legs Friction clears
the skin, resolves stagpant humors, pro-
notes perspiration, strengthens the fibre
and increases the warmth and energy Of
the whole body. in rheumatism, govt,
palsy, and green sickness, it is an excel
Lent remedy. To the sedentary, hypo-
chcndrlac, and persons troubled with
indigestion, who have not leisure to
take sufficient exercise, the daily fric-
ton of the abdomen, in particular, can
not be too much recommended as a
substitute for other means, in order to
dissolve the thick humors which may
be forming in the bowels, by stagna-
ton, and t. strengthen the vessels. But,
in rubbing that part of the body, it
ought TO be performed in circular di-
rection, rs being most favorable to the
course of the intestines, and their nat
ura, action.

or ten years on various boats before his
apprenticeship is complete. After all
this he must pass most rigid exani-
nation on AL points of seananship and
navigation before the board Of pilot
commissioners and EXHIBIT through
knowledge of the tides, rips, sands, and
all other phenomena for hundreds of
miles out from the piers of the East
and North rivers. But even after re-
ceiving his license, he is sometimes
forced 10 wait years, until some pilot
happens TO die and leaves vacancy for
him. The first year OF pilotage, he is
granted licepse to pilot vessels draw
ing less than sixteen feet. If he gives
satisfaction, the following year he is
permitted to take charge of ships draw
ing eighteen feet. If he passes salts.
factory examination the third ear, he
then receives full license, emitting
him to pilot vessels of any dr,ught,
and is then first called branch OF full
pilot.
This matter of draught often gives
rise To amusing maneouvers betw cen
captain and pilot--the former some

statement Of the actual draught of the
vessel at the time, and the latter in
turn employing his wits to get at the
truth without appearing to doubt the
word of the captain. Vessels drawing
under fourteen feet pay three dollars
and seventy cents foot; the rate in
creases by degrees, until ships drawing
twentyone feet and upwards pay six
dollars and fifty cents per foot.
On receiving his license the pilot
must give bonds for the proper discharge
OF his duty, and he is liable to heavy
fines if he declines to fill vacany or
to board vessel making signals for
pilot. He is also required to be tenn
perate in his habits and of reputable
character. The proper executions Of
these regulations Is to a large degree
insured by the great competition among
the boats, and the consequent vigilance
of each To detect delinquencies in his
rivals

The London Globe narrates the fol
lowing striking French anecdote-one
of the many illustrations of the maxim
that murder will out" Providence
pursues guilt, and will shape circum-
stances 50 as to expose it at last. 1t
would be hard to find more vivid ex-
ample than this OF detached evidence,
accidentally pieced together, TO convict
q criminal
In the reign Of Louis XIV, a brilliant
able was one of party who had as
sembled round the royal supper table.
There were clever takers, sharp deal
ers in epigram, skillful handlers of
compliment and repartee.
One lady, famous for her wit, being
asked to name the three sights that
gave her the greatest pleasure, replied,
"A great general on war horse,agr
preacher on platform, and great
thief on a gallows"
The abbe added to the mirth Of the
evening by telling the adventures of a
gay and memorable career.
~ remember" he said, livery well
the first patient who came to my CON
fessional. | was young then, and little
accustomed to hear the secrets of court
life. 1t was murderer, who told me
the story of bis crime
The able was pressed to tell the tale,
or give clew to the culprit; but he
kept a guarded and wary silence.
Presently in came one OF the most
trusty of the kings favorites.
"Ah, NJ. FAbbe," be said, recognizing
an old friend; gentleman, l was the
first patient whom the able ever
shriyed, and l promise you, when i
told him my story, he heard what as
tonished him."
That night the nobleman was car
ried to the bastile, and the evidence Of
a crime, committed thirty years before,
was complete, and the culprit detected.

The growth OF New York City.

The new year finds this big, busting,
hurry -scurry-city with an increase of at
least 100000 in its much mixed popula-
ton. The increase may even be $780,
0OD. OF the 455,000 Immigrants who
passed through Castle Garden in 1881,
about 10000 gave New York as their
destination. A great many of these
were bound for other parts of the State,
and many more matte their way to
other States after looking around, but
it is safe to say that at least half of the
whole number remained. The increase
from other sources was already steady
and rapid. There never was such u
year for crowding as 1881. The hotels
were packed, the boarding houses were
full, the tenements overilowed, the
flats were occupied from basement to
top story, and the private houses were
all tenanted. And at the present mo-
ment the crowding is greater than ever.
The chief difficulty met by newcomers
is to find places to live in. Houses or
apartments are not to be had except in
the far uptown section, where most OF
last years building was done. Through
the central part of the city, say be-
tween Fourteenth street and Central
Park, there are no vacancies for either
rich or poor. Every building has Its
full complement of tenant, and persons
looking for apartments may search for
days and not find even room. 1t is
an excellent time for the landlords, and
they all seem well pleased with it, as
they should. There will probably be
another upward movement in rents in
the spring House rent, like pretty
much everything else, is regulated by
vance of at least 10 per cent. is looked
for whom the renting season opens next
month. There is no sign that the ra
pid increase of population will stop.
The census of 1880 gave us total Of
over 100000. 1t must now be near
ly | 500, 900, and the rush goes steadi-
" on, The whole world is tributary to
New York The tide that flows from
Europe is not the only source of in
crease by all means. All parts of the
United States contribute their quota.
People are constantly coming from
every section of the country to stay.
They come to find employment or en-
gage in business, and they swell the
throng that makes New York more and
more cosmopolitan every year. At the
present rate of growth it won't take
many years to run our population up
to 100000. Counting Brooklyn and
the other suburbs, it is above that fl
cure now, but if the wonderful increase
keeps on, as it probably will, the me-
tropolis itself must soon reckon up the
grand total just named.-Bu6alo Coat-
