Railroads Up in tho Andes.

One Of the most wonderful pieces of en-
cheering in the world is the railroad
stretching from Lima and Calao to the
crest Of the continent, where the famous
mines OF the Cerro del Pasco are, the
source Of the ancient riches of the country,
from which tons upon tons OF silver have
been taken, aud which still hold, il the
testimony OF the mineTalOgists can be
relied upon, the richest deposits on the
surface Of the world. The railroad was
never completed. Mr.. Meiggs carried it

THE P1LorAGE QUESTION.
Views of "A LOCKER On'-The Duties
and Responsibilities OF Pilots.

Views of "a LOCKER On"-The Duties
and Responsibilities OF Pilots.
In the discussion of all questions, pOlit-
zeal or domestic, questions Of economy,
health, law, morals, etc, men should cul-
tiyate that grace known as common
sense. In the discussion Of the question
of pilotage it is all important TO know
what are the duties and responsibilities Of
pilots.
First-They may be aptly termed the
police OF the sea. Every pilot belonging
to city is careful OF the health and in
terest Of that city. II true 70 their pro-
fession they would not bring in a vessel
with contagious disease, but order II
away.
second-They protect insurance COM
Danies, and frequently prevent the de-
struction of ships by corrupt masters and
owners for the purpose OF robbing the IN
surance companies, and they
should have certain and def
mite recognition IN law. They are an
absolute necessity, and any interference
that partakes Of a selfish character just
50 much hurts the pilotage system.
In taking calm and dispassionate
view, the pilot is entitled to bis fees, and,
therefore,, looks to both inward and out
daily, men who are professionals. men
who are al hand in calm and storm should
nave recognized rights, and II is not
strange that pilots knowing the arduous
duties Of their lives are Jealous Of their
rights. Who would not be?
Then, taking common sense view Of
the whole subject, why should not the
pilot have without question both his in
ward and outward fees. What is his life
af - In ha rnlo nd h.l
point, and there VIII BE- no further cause
for complaint. There should be no doubt
in so important a subject, and il is 10 be
hoped tue Leg stature Will see the import
ance OF giving pilots that protection
which will make them ever efficient In
their profession.
IL should be remem Oered that they do
give quarantine service without cOmpen-
satiOn. Is not that "A most important fact
in their profession? But the other day
Aug. 1.-THE German bark Neptune, with
African fever on board, was ordered by
the pilot TO the national quarantine at
~apelO. That, in justice, might be termed
sea police and the saving Of the spread of
disease. One fact is worth a thousand
theories, and all the Savannah pilots ask
IS that facts be looked at as they are.
Had the Neptune been brought to the
quarantine station at Tybee the pilot
would have been entitled to his inward
and outward fees, but as il was he lost
his fees by ordering the vessel to Sapelo.
Tue pilots, at this writing, are on the
lookout for an infected vessel from Mar
seilles, perhaps with cholera, and il it
comes in sight OF Tybee it will be ordered
away to SSpel0. Such are facts, and let
the LEGISLATURE and people be posted. As
protectors of public health it has ever
been the duty OF pilots 70 be on the look
out and to give timely warning, yet there
is no compensation for such services, and
yet it is as old as the service Of pilotage.

He Has the Mate Arrested for Cruelty
But Fails TO Prosecute.

When United states Commissioner
Locke went down 70 his Office Yesterday
morning ne found a negro sailor waiting
for him with pitiful tale OF abuse and
maltreatmeut. The man gave the name
Caleb Waller, and stated that he was one
OF the crew Of the schooner samuel H.
Crawford, Capt. Tilton, which arrived in
port from Baltimore the day before. He
said that on the voyage the first mate, a
son Of the captain, had beat him with a
piece OF iron until ne was scarcely able to
work. and auerward the master had
threatened to put him of on an island.
The story was one OF narrowing
cruelty, and upon bis affidavit a warrant
United states Deputy Marshal Palmer
arrested the mate, and hearing was had
directly afterward. Two or three Wit
nesses wer- sworn, but they declared that
they knew nothing OF the Ill treatment Of
any OF the crew. W alleT, the principal
witness. was not present. just before the
arrest was made he was seen on the tug
Maud, which was steaming down the
river.
The Deputy Marshal hurried down to
the Savannah, Florida aud Western
railway wharves, but when he arrived
the tug was just moving into mid-stream
with a schooner in tow. Waller was on
board OF the schooner, and it was
learned that he had ship
