GREECE -IIo o,...-.4-9 furnished
by a recent report of the Minister of FL
nance of the Kingdom Of Greece, show
some industrial progress:
The population of the country has
increased since 1884 from 100000 to
1,042,000. The inhabitants occupy
themselves mainly with agricultural and
marine pursuits. Twenty million litres
of currants are now produced, against
ten millions previous to 1884, and the
vineyards cover three times as much
ground as they did before the war of in
dependence. Instead of 100000 null
berry trees, Greece has now 800, 900,
and 100000 fig trees instead of $4,000.
The olive trees have increased from g.
100000 to !, 400, 900, and they yield a
revenue of 100000 drachms instead
of 640, 900.

HAYTI.-In an article on the insur-
rection in this island the N. Y. Herald
says, the area of the island is about 30
600 square miles, one-third of which is
comprised in the empire Of Hayti and
two-thirds in the Dominican republic.
The population of Hayti is 65O,0O0, and
that of the republic of Dominica $780,
600, nine-tenths of whom are of African
descent, and the remainder of the Span
ish and Indian races. The capital of
the republic is the city of St. Domingo,
built by Bartholomew Columbus, brother
of the great discoverer, in 1896. The
army numbers about $4,000 men, while
that of Solouque is as large as 10000;
and he has navy composed OF four
small vessels and one steamer.
The climate of the island is one of
the most delightful in the world, the soil
rich, and the scenery superb; but its
productiveness has declined under the
miserable and corrupt rule with which it
has been afflicted the export of coffee and
tobacco has fallen off almost to nothing,
and sugar is actually imported from the
United States into country where 1t
once formed rich "rd "h""A"nt crop.
