handled at the last meeting of the
Press Association of this State.
They were very justly denounced as
swindling harpies, who are fatten-

from the papers of the South and
West; and resolution was passed,
declaring that all members of the
press should ignore them in the
future, refusing to take any adver,
tisements from them or from 9th, +
Yankee concerns, unless their pro
posals be accompanied by cash,
to the full amount of regular rates.
We hope to be spared the trouble of
tossing any more 'bidS" from these

full oil such trash already. . --

FRUIr.-The market is well supplied
with tropical fruit, consisting of or
anges, cocoauuts, bananas and lines.
Since January lst to the present time,
we hryc received from Los Angeles 324,-
200 oranges, against 72i,i5O for the cor
responding time of last year, showing a
decrease Of 800, $50. Last year they sold
at S3O65O I'm, and a great many small
and inferior oranges sold at $50 Z NJ,
while this year they sold ut 400 100 q
NJ: only those of extra quality brought
the latter figure. This great difference
in price is owing to the small supply
and largely increased demand. The
r from Los Angeles is all in for this
season, but the market is largely over
stocked with oranges from Tahiti.
Strawberries, gooscberries and cherries
ate coming in quite freely. The propel-
