An Erroneous Idea of Pilotage.

From visionary and inland standpoint
some writers view the ocean and its arms
with an eye that sweeps the universe and sees
only the surface. For poetical purposes the
sea and its traditions are forever on tap in
their fertile brains. But when they attempt
an expression concerning practical maritime
affairs, the salt of their wit frequently loses
its SAVIOR. In plain English, they do not
know what they are talking about. In
proof Of this the following, from the Au-
gusta Herald is offered:
Zone Of the best things accomplished by
| this congress ls the abolition, In a large de-
gree, Of compulsory pilotage. A few pilots
| at Norfolk. Charleston, Savannah, Mobile,
New Orleans and other ports were making
money by forcing their services on vessels
that had no need of them. This ring was
long continued by the powerful efforts of a
lobby at Washington, led by a very shrewd
old lawyer"
This is the opinion OF the protected ship
| builders OF New England localized to misflt
| the columns of the Herald The legislation
| referred to is a direct blow at the right of
| the states to regulate their own affairs after
| their own fashion. 1t is an attempt at
| favoritism, in which trust Of Maine ship
| owners would be benefited at the expense of
the southern ports. 1t is blow directed at
body of men who are on life>saving duty
from years end to years end, and who
brave death almost daily in the discharge
of their duty. It is an attempt to
injure the south's commerce by
making charters high and mari
time insurance from southern ports
more costly. 1t is piece OF legislation to
take bread out of the mouths of the wives
and children of hundreds Of men who have
been obliged to spend nearly one-fifth of
an average lifetime in acquiring the skill
and knowledge which they must have to be
licensed pilots on ocean bars IL is an at
tempt TO make 81 900 worth of private
properly, employed in the pilot service,
absolutely valueless without compensation.
1t is an attempt to force upon the southern
states a system which they do not believe
to be advantageous to their interests, simply
| because the northern states, having a
foreign commerce sufficient to support a
competent pilot corps, have seen fit to abol-
ish compulsory pilotage. The abolition of
compulsory pilotage would injure Savan-
nah and Brunswick and every other port in
this state and thereby injure the state itself
And every other southern state would suffer
in proportion to its commerce by sea.
But, happily, the Frye bill has not YET be.
come an act Of congress, as the Herald al
leges, and it may never become law. The
rider of Pegasus would do we'll to study the
| RAGING canal for a nunn har ~ vaors xat ha.

The VaIue of Reciprocity,

The Sunday edition of the New York
Press contained al exceedingly soie and
exhaustive article upon Reciprocity from
the pen of Mr.. William Enery Curtis of The
State Department, in which \ highly in-
portant feature was the state mant in refer
ence to our former ard prospective trade with
the Latin american countries. The annual
imp IRIS of these countries sversge $500 000,-
600, of which The Unit d States hiss usually
furnished 10 per cent. The anpual exports
of the same countries average about $780,
900 600, and Of these exports the United
States purchased lass year nearly 5000 00o,-
900, or about SO per cent. In tue con =
melce of these countries with Great Britain
these figures are prac icsliy reversed
IL the psst ten years We have purchased
merchandise from ,he L.iin American Re-
pubhcs tggregs,ipg fully 1900. 000 COO
but we have sold to the m merchandise TO
the value Of lees ,hsn $500, 100000. The
vast ference Of 81 600 coo 600 they have
expended largely 10 f giard. hut entirely
10 Eur pc, for the purchase Of articles
nearly every one of which III Uated States
could have furnished.
Under the provisions of recipro ,ity We
are likely to revold,i0nize entirely this sit
uation with re e,ence to trade with Latin
American nations. Within The II xt ten
years We may expect not oply largely to ia
crease our purchases from the Lllin-Amer
lean coubtries bus to furnish them with at
| least two birds of the merchandise which
they now purchase from foreign sources.

Privately he informed his colleagues of his

ooks upon the measure as containing

embodied in the home rule scheme. He
holds it to be impossible that the proposed

aside the necessity of an Irish legislative
