new, the plantation is suffered to grow for the
purpose of giving bread to thenegroes. Here
and there, also the orange and citron trees,
lift their golden fruit above the surface and
far above the rest, the priviledged palm, i'll
every direction, waves its beautiful sum-
nit.
Such plantations are great, splendid gar
dens, and are justly regarded by the inhablt-
ants as the glory of their Island.
The plantations that are finished, contain
from 100, 900 to 100000 trees i'll each, and
are wrought by from 10 to 400 negroes; and
in proportion to the gross income, the cX-
pense of conducting them is said to be con-
siderably less than that of sugar estates.
Hence their number IS more rapidly aug
menting.
The trees generally blossom in February,
and III the early part OF May, and some
time oftner; but the blossom Oil which most
dependence is placed, is the one IN May.
! Then 4 vast level of surface, white as the
drifted snow, is presented the beholder;
but varied and enlivcncd by the taller trees
iust mentioned. The harvest commences
/ in September and ends inFc ruary or March
If, within this time, the average OF half a
pound of coffee is gathered from each tree,
the harvest is esteemed good.
When the berries acquire a dark and red
colour, they are considered ripe for gather
ing, and the negroes, properly equipped, are
sent into the field. An Industrious negro
will gather five bushels in day and IA bash
cl III the pulp, fresh from the tree, Is eN,
pectcd to yield at least ten pounds OF good
coffee. 1t is then spread upon extensive
dryers made of stone and mortar. Ihls
process requires nearly a month. The hnsA
or Shell IS then separated from the seed in a
mill, which exactly resembles the mills III
this country, where apples are ground in a
circular trough By a huge rolling stonc--eN-
ccpting that the roller for the coffee is wood
though of considerable weight. In few ca
ses, a machine OF a very different construc-
ton is used 5ut it need not be described.
The pulp being removed, the whole IS
exposed to the action ct Il fan, and then oil a
scive, after which the female slaves CAREFUL
" picl; ont the defective kernels. From II
to Is hundred pounds may thus be cleaned
in a day. In the opinion Of the planters, the
favour If coffee is materially improved by
/. age. That which is four or five Years old is
preferable.

of it but his Majesty whose affection tor
him was sincere, was unwilling to judge so
rashlv of him without further evidence, and
knowing the articles of courtiers to disgrace
or supplant one another in their princes ia
vour. and that it might not be impossible but
that some other of the council might coun-
terfcit such letter, and drop it there with
design of running Cardenas, proposed to
trace the affair to the bottom before passing
sentence, by sending to Venice to know it
such precise sum was lodged in the bank
there, by whom lodged and for whose use.
His Maiesty's proposal was thought rcson-
able. and messenger was Immediately dis
patched to the Spanish minister at Venice,
to make strict inquiry into the above partic-
,ars. The messenger returned, and brought
with him the original order, dated the same
day with the letter to Cardcnas, written
with the same hand, and, to remove all sus-
picion. sealed with the Protectors own seal.
There now remained no farther doubt Car
dcnas was UNANIMOUSLY degraded, and his es-
tate confscated; but mis- Majesty, on account
of his great age and long services, tho lght fit
to spare his life.
In the state Of Louisiana the cultivation OF
the sugar cane for the present year pro-
dnces forty thousand hogsheads of sugar,
which at valuation of seventy five dollars
per hogshead, amounts to two million eight
hundred thousand dollars. The next article
the cotton plants. is worthy of notice, and
produces this year forty thousand bales Of
cotton Of three hundred and fifty pounds
each. This at valuation of forty dollars
per bale, amounts to one million six hundred
thousand dollars. In the next place molas-
scs, rice, corn &c have been estimated a,
six hundred thousand dollars, making al
aggregate Of five millions of dollars. The
population of that state averages about
three persons to each square mile, and ye
such are already the results. Who does no
see in this, the future grandeur OF the west

no questions are put to him. The master
Of the house is evidently i'll at ease, uhtil .he
food is prepared for eating he VIII request
his squaw to expedite it, and will even 81 sur
the fire himself.-When the guest has mn
ished his meal, the pipeis handed to MN 10
smoke after which the conversation oeSihs'
either vocally or by signs. AS soon as 1t IS
known that a stranger is in the village, ne Is
invited to various teasts, at each OF which nc
rcciprocates the politeness OF his host' oy
partaking of his fare. The stranger IS not
unfrcquently followed from lodge to lodge
by several persons, who wish to secure
him as a guest in their turn.
'In the kindcst spirit Of hospitality, they
are always careful to treat their guests IN
the manner which they suppose will be most
agreeable to them. A trader was invited to
feast, and, the food being prepared, a
squaw who was about to serve it up, in order
to clean a bowl to contain it, began to scoop
it out with her curved finger. Her husband
observing this usual mode of depuration, rep
rimandcd her, saying, Il have told you that
the white people do not like to see bowls
cleaned in that manner, give me the vessel,
and will show you how to clean them.
