The Philadelphia Price Current writes:
Tho annual product of the world is set
down in recent circular at an average Of
about six hundred and seventy-two mil
lion pounds, or say three thousand tons
Half Of this is produced in Brazil, where
the tree grows far more luxuriantly and
bears more heavily than IN its early Eastern
home. This increased product, however,
brings with it rankness of flavor which
makes the Rio less favored by persons Of
delicate taste. About so, 900 tons came
from Java and Sumatra, $4,000 tons from
Ceylon, $4,000 tons from St. Domingo and
the remainder from variety of other
countries or islands in or near the torrid
zone. The consumption has been estima-
tod by Mr.. Moring at 231S per cent. for the
German Zollverein, 1873 per cent. for the
United States, l4H per cent. for Holland
and Belgium, 1oH per cent. for France, s
per cent. for Austria, III per cent. for
Southern Europe, 7H per cent. for Great
