PERUVIANPICTURES.
WAVES TIPPED WITH SILVER.
Hand of the Incnsaslt Wa.-.lIod-
ern Peruvians Their Ways
or Iilvinc
From. Guayaquil to Callao, and iu
fact to the end of the continent, the
western coast of South America pre
sents an unbroken line of mountains,
and a strip of desert between them
and the sea. Occasionally some
stream from the mountain brings
down the melted snow, and opens an
oasis, which was utilized by the
planters, as far back as the conquest,
when the industrious Jesuits made
as vigorous a war upon the desert as
upon the Inca religion, and con
quered one as easily as they con
quered the other. "Wherever this
barren strip along the sea has been
irrigated it produces enormous crops
of sugar, coffee, and other tropical
products, and the whole of it might
be redeemed by the introduction of a
little capital and industry. If the
money Peru has wasted in revolu-
tions" had been expended in the de-
velopraent of its mines, and if its
j soldiers had dug irrigating ditches
with as .much ardor as thej' have
fought each other there would be no
richer country on the globe.
, Wherever the Incas touched the
earth it produced in profusion, and
their wealth was fabulous. Their

Mibdue. In no part of the world does
nature assume more imposing forms.
Derscrts as bare and repulsive as
Sahara alternate with valleys as rich
and luxuriant as those of Italy.
eternal summer smiles under the
frown of eternal snow. The rainless
region, this desert strip which lies
between the Andes and the sea, is
about forty miles in width, and the
panorama presented to the voyager
is a constant succession of bare and
repulsive wastes of sand and rock,
uninhabited, whose silence is only
broken by the incessant surf, the
bark of the sea lion, and the screams
of the water birds which haunt its
wave-worn and forbidding shore.
The coast is dotted with small rocky
islands, whicp. have been the roost of
myriads of birds for ages, and fur
nish the guano of commerce. The
steamers seem to furnish them their
only entertainment, and they sur
round every vessel which passes,
soaring above and about the masts,
screaming defiance at the invasion of
their resorts. The water is full of
animal life; nowhere does the sea
offer science in so many curious forms
of animate nature: monsters un
known to northern waters can here
be seen from the decks of the
steamers, and at night their move
ments about the vessel are shown by
a line of fire which always follows
their fins. The water is so strongly
impregnated with phosphorous that
every wave is tipped with silver, and
every fish which dart3 about leaves
A BRILLIANT TRAIL
Like that of a comet. The larger
fishes, the sharks, and porpoises find
great sport in swimming races with
the ship, and under the bowsprit a
small army of them are to be seen
every evening sailing along beside
the Vessel, darting back and forth
before its bow, leaping and plunging
over each other, when every motion
is apparent, and the outlines of their
bodies are as distinct as if drawn
with a pencil of fire. Nowhere is
this phenomenon so conspicuous.
The first point beyond Guayaquil
is the Island of Puna, where Pizarro
first landed, and where he waited
with a squad of thirteen ragged men,
while the deserters from his expedi
tion went back to Panama in his
ships, promising to send re-enforcements,
which afterwards came.
Beside Puna is the famous Isle del
Muerto (dead man's island), which
looks like a corpse floating m the
water. Just below, and the north
most town of Pern, is Tunibez, where
Pizarro landed and met the messen
gers from Alahuallpas' army, who
came to ask the object of his visit.
Behind Tunibez are the petroleum
deposits of Peru, which have been
known to the natives ever since the
time of the Incas, but they were
ignorant of the character or tho value
of the oil. A Yankee by the name
of Larkin from Western New York
came down here to sell kerosene,
and recognized the material which
the Indians used for lubricating and
coloring 'purposes as the same stuff
he was peddling. An attempt has
been made to utilize the deposits,
which are very extensive, but so far
thev have not been successful in pro
ducing a burning fluid that is either
safe or agreeable.
At each of the little ports on the
Peruvian coast the steamer stops and
takes on produce forshipmentto Liv
erpool or Germany. These towns are
simply
COLLECTIONS OF MUD-UUTS,
Inhabited by fishermen or the em
ployes of the steamship company,
dreary, dusty, and dirty. Back in
the country, along the streams which
bring fertility and water down from
the mountains, are places of commer
cial importance, the residences of
rich hacienda owners and the scenes
of historic events as well as pre
historic civilization.
The products of the country are

one of the ports the natives are busy

and the beautiful results of their
labor find a market at Panama and
in the cities of the coast, where, as in
Alevico, a man's character is judged
by what he wears on his head. The
hats arc usually made of " toquilla,"
an arborescent plant of the palm
family, the leaves of which are often
several yards long. "Whencut, theleaf
is dried and then whipped into shreds
almost as fine and tough as silk. ,
Some of the hats are made of single
fibers, with not a splice or an end
from the center of the crown to the
rim. It requires two or three months
often to make them, and the best
ones are braided under water so as
to make the fiber more pliable.

During the siege there had been a
good deal of friendly sparring be
tween the soldiers of the two armies
on picket and where the lines were
close together. All rebels were
known as "Johnnies," all Union
troopsas "Yanks." Often 'Johnny"
would call: "Well, Yank, when aro
you coming into town?" Tho reply
was sometimes, "We propose to
celebrate the Fourth of .luly there."
Sometimes it would be, "We always
treat our prisoners with kindness
and do not want to hurt them ;" or,
"We are holding you as prisoners of
war while you are feeding your
selves," etc. " The garrison, from the
commanding general down, undoubt
ed' expected an assault on the
Fourth. The' knew from the temper
of their men'thajt it would be suc
cessful when made, and that would
be a greater humiliation than to sur
render. Besides, it would be attended
with severe loss to them. The
A'icksburg paper (which we received
regularly through the courtesy of the
rebel pickets) said, prior to the Fourth,
in speaking of the Yankee boast that
they would take dinner in Yicksburg
that day, that the best recipe for
cooking a rabbit was, "First ketch
your rabbit." The paper at this
time, and for some time prior, was
printed on the plain side of "wall
paper. The lastcdition was issued
on the Fourth, and announced' tliat
we had "caught our rabbit." Gen.
Grant's Paper, in the September
Century.
A Toothless Time Comlnr.
The American tooth, the dentists
tell us, issomething fast disappearing.
What is to take its place they leave
to conjerture. Whether a toothless
race is on its way, or whether a new
animal is to bo involved from tho
present human creature on this con
tinent is perhaps an open question.
Whatever it is that may come to pass
the fancy recoils before the prospect.
Children of 12 years often have $100
worth of gold in their mouths, others
needing as much quite as badly, but
unable to afford the outlay. Children
of 10 often wear complete sets of
false teeth, and other children in
numerable have teeth that ate de
cayed before they penetrate the
gums, and that have to be filled as
soon as they are in sight, the crumb
ling material and thin enamel, even
then, giving but little to work upon.
At first it was thought all this re
sulted from ignorance, from candy
eating, from want of care and clean
liness. But it is now understood
that in most case3 the fault is in
herent in the quality of the tooth,
and the only remedy so far suggested
is a diet calculated with special
reference to the making of sound
bone. This is supposed to be found
in the coarse grains and food of
similar character, and the most con
firmed beef-eater alive yields to the
superiority at this "point of the little
kernal of" grain that feeds his beef
itself. Harper's Bazar.
