Therefore some information on the subject may be found both Antoresting and instructive, THR YBCRSSETY FOR PILOTS, ‘There is more or lesz necessity for pilots te all ports, Dut more particularity so to the harbor of New York, From Sandy Hook to tho lewer end of Long Island, @ @istance of about ten miles, a succession of dangerous shoals bars tho eutrance. To the unrmitiated mariner, who beholds a clear strotch of water, a few fect beneath the sarfuce of which bo knows not are sand bars end goeks on which ft woukl bo euro destraction to ran his vessel, These sheats are to the routhward and eastward ef the izner bay, snd are kuown es the East Bank, Bouth west Spit and Romer Shoals, the latter being the most cxtensive and dangerous, There are two main ties nod Rewn channels through which the Sar connecting the shoals with the main land can be ctossed— South Channel and Gedney’s Channel, each Daving twenty-seven feet of water at bigh tide, In addition tothe two channels memed there are several gmalier ones which, however, are only used by tow- boats end small fishing boata, Geauey’s avd Soath ebannels are distant about a mile from the beach at and lead into Ship and “wesb Channels, y being asbort cnt not much used, Inside the Dar er: the Knolls, False Hook and West Bank. .On the Iatier tho future hospital of the port will be erected, the Process of filing in being now under way, The chanel Of the toper bay is lined on both sides with mud flats and sheala The channels of both the lower and inner ‘aye vary from a mile and a half toa quarter ofa mile in ‘width, and have an average depth of thirty or thirty five feet. Thus it will be seen that, mdependent of the land ‘visibio on both shores, there ere hidden dangers, whicd Fequire that thorough knowledge which time and practice only will give to familiarize the’ navigators with, To faniling vessels the dangers aro greater than to steamers, Densuse the former cannot be sailed with exact precision fer any given point under all circumstances, Piloting ‘Vessels as an ocoupaiion has boen in vogue ever since ‘the port of New York or New Amsterdam was discov- ered; but it was not antil the year 1853 that the pilots ‘wero organized and governed by an act of the Legi-la- ture of the State of New York. Under the old system piloting was a sort of family arrangement, but now all Gemring have an opportunity to become pilots, THE BOARD OF PILOT COMMISSIONERS, The Jaw provides (hat there shail bea Board of Com- missioners of Pilots, consistng of five persons, three of ‘whom are chosen by the Chamber of Commerce and two by the Doard of Underwriters, each one to hold office fortwo years, and vacancies to be filled by the same bodies. The present Commissioners are as fol- tows:—Appointea by the Chamber of Commerce, George ‘W. Blunt, Robert L. Taylor and Thomas Dunham; ap- pointed by the Board of Underwriters, W. C. Thomp- gon and Russell Sturgis; President, Russell Sturgis; Becretary, George W. Blunt, 1he office is at No. 40 Burling slip, wuere the Board meets on the first Tuesday efevery mouth, The duties of the Board consist of an eatire supervision of all matters pertaining to the New York and Sandy Hook pilots, The Board grant licenses, fenposo penalties, give rewards, suspend pilots from duty, and do many other things under the pro- visions of the jaw for the government of pilots, Aceounts are kept and money collected wader their supervision, for which two and a» half Per cent on ali earnings are paid. The government of the pilots by the Board is as complete in detail as ‘that of the Common Council over a city, and the penal- os tor law breaking are very severe. THE PILOTS AND THRIR BOATS.

Five or six years since it was so cold that the pilot boat Collins could not be managed, and went asiore on peed Isiand, Three pilots and two boys were frozeu to jeath, escaped with their lives, About eight years the pilot boat Washington, with one pilot and six hands, was miasing and never heard of since, A steamorcame in at the same time, and re- ported having, ju a fog, ron down a small echooner, Supposed to be a fishing boat, but undoubtedly the ill- fated Washington, ‘Taree years since the Mary Ann, a boat said to have been so open in her seams as to admit of a lookout being taken from the bertha, having ber enils frozen, was rua up bigh and dry on Gandy Hook, but all hands were for- tunately saved.

East of tbe Park the Firth and Third avenues are, now over- crowded with vehicles, and as the Fourth is asieam railroad aveaue for the Harlem and New Haven cars, the locomotives so frighten borses that it may be said to be of no practical use for any other kind of vehicles. Madison avenue is declared to be opened by law to Eighty.sixth street, and contractors have been two years slowly at work opening it and grading it oetween that point amd Forty-second street, This avenue should be opened to Hariein river. Lexington avenue is now opened only to Sixty-fifth street, but it should be ex- tended as far north also, Both these avenues will eventually be reqvired to ran the entire distance sue- gested, and \he sooner they are legally made so tho iss the expense of extension will be. There are some house: now built upon the streets which these avenuce will cross, but they are few compared with what tney will be in a few years if measures are not speedily taken to declare both avenues opened to Harlem. North of Sixty fifth s'reet the distance botween Third and Fourth avenues is 900 fest, and between Fourth and Fifth ave- ues 526 feet, without any interven ng street, ‘The following tables of distauces botween the streets and avenues up town may bo of readers: DISTANCES BETWERN THE AVENUES, south of Twenty-tutrd Street, Between Tenth and E:eventh, Botween Eleventh and Tweifth, eel sgg2323 22 Ss Ssesss Others on buard suffered upiold miseries, but North of Phirty-fourth Street.

Panis, Oct. 18, 1867, Did ever a misfortune happen to a man in that region of altitude known under the name of the “upper circies’’ and find bia fellow-creatures fall of benevolent commiseration? Dit ever a woman lose a lock of faiso hair in those days when, to wear such an articie, was thought dishonest dealing, and find her most inti- mate bosom friend keep the ‘secret? Has ever a man put bis wig on the back foremost and not created a suppressed titter on entering a drawing room forever afterwards? Has ever an energetic waltzor, who prides himself on deux temps, lost bis perpendicular and been rolled ia the centre of a saloon and from that day forward {found young maidens forget- fal enough to accept Lis arm for as much as a quadrilie? As all these “ uopleasantnesses” aro so much maguifed, and buman nature is so perverse, how can we be sur- prised that the 35 francs which the Prince of Monaco will not pay to his carpenter (a most interesting man, his name is David), ahould be the subject of so much mockery and talk in the beau monde? Had any citizen (ous I believe at is djsrespectiul to the empire to call Parisians citizens, and wul express mvseif less demo- crativally), bad any one in tive reverse of the beau monde refused to pay «bill of the kind, he would in Jess than no time bave bad a “ huissier” ater him, a proiession not batf 20 useless to those who practise it as disagreeable to others who do not The said official would have sent im cart loads of stamped paper as fast as he coukd cipher penal- ties dowa on them; but in the Prince of Monaco’s case it was he who, having boen fined to pay, got a warrant out against the carpenter. He contended in this document that, considering the yadgment of the Tribunal of Marseilles had sentenced him to pay thirty-five francs for the reparation of his railway car, be was, as a soning individual, compel'ed to pay that aforesaid sum, ut that as a king be would eu‘orce bis right to banish the carpenter froin his Siates aud prohibit bis ever en- tering them. In clearer words, he meant—I owe David ) the money, but he shall not have it, for I will not let bim come and fetch it, Ou! ve triends of the law, is it not right and meet that this veracious anecdote should amase fasbionadie society? And what thinks she pub- lic 0 geweral of this prince’s civil list? Ia it civil at eli, in the frst place? Aiso pity the carpenter. If this David ever dances at all it cannot be attendance on Toyaity, He who bes thirty-five trancs to collect at Monaco after a lawsuit and the attendant etceteras is condemned to spend a life of lonzing on the boundaries oaly of that disiant laad, comforted by noth bat tne knowledge thui serene bighnesses must experience finan- cial dilliculties in that desired Eldorado. ‘But not carpenters alove bave toeir triala’ Acrowned head, the King of Bavaria, is io trouble. His case is pecullar, It may be remembered that his union with the Archduchess Sophia was on the so-called tapis, when soddenly the report spread tbat tho affair was broken of. Tne King, having bad to give his reasons for so stranve a proceeding, stated facts:-—that the Archduchess inspired bim with no other feeling than that oi pro- found aversion. In the opinion of the wise this will be found the best account he could giro of bis sympathies. It is evident that it is preferabie in a gentiowan to like a lady before be has married her than after ding cerewouy ; but some aflirm that kings are not genticmen, and my position is such that I can argue the point no further. My court news by this courier is inexhaustible.
