respecto de este no tengo datos er
que fundar una opinion.
Para concluir estas ligeras obser-
vaciones que me aventuro q hacer en-
provecho de los productores de Ia
azilcar, y con objeto de contribuir al
desarrollo de este importante ramo
de la rqueza pd5lica creo convenien-
te consignar algunos datos de una de
las 6ncas mejicanas que por estar ex-
portando az1car q los Estados- Unidos,
en- mayor cantidad y con mejor exito,
puede servir de modelo, y cuyos da-
tos debo al favor del propietario de
esa fnca, ell ilustrado Sr. d.. Pedro
Requena.
La hacienda de Jica!ango, situada
en- la playa del mar, frente q la isla
del Carmen, y con gran facilidad pa
ra la exportacion, pues los buques lle-
gan a cargar hasta los almacenes de
la fnca, ha exp0rtado en- los meses
transcurridos del presente a1o, mas
de $500 quintales de azdcar bruta,
remitda toda ella Nueva- York. La
azdcar SEGA Sc embasa en- sacos de
heninquen de Yucatan, llamados AFRO
seros, que tienen -capacidad para con-
tener hasta 250 libras de az1car, y
que cuestan, por estar allf Immediate
ell lugar de la production de 80 4 35
centavos cada uno y la parte de azd
car que este hdmeda 8 contiene algu-
ma miel en- bocoyes que tienen capa
cidad para 10 quintales de azdcar y
cuestan allf cosa de cindo pesos ca
da uno. Els preterible embarcar la
azdcar en- sacos que en- bocoyes, tan
to porque ell peso de los prime
ros es en- proportion mucho me
nor que ell de los segundos, y por-
que Sc paga fete sobre los embases
cuanto porque ell valor del primer EN-
base es mucho menor que ell del Sc
gundo, supuesto que 10 quintales de
azdcar Sc pueden embasar en- cuatro
sacos que cuestan peso y pesan como
cosa de 10 libras mientras que en-
basados en- uu bocoy cuesta este s
pesos y pesa de so 70 libras sobre
cuyo peso hay que pagar Aete de mar.
A pesar de que en- Jicalango, Sc
pagan jornales a SO centavos, de que
hay escasez de brazos, de que hay un
capital -muerto, invertido en- adelan
tos a los mozos, y que Ell tren de la
tinca es jamaiquino; ell Sr. Requena
ha logrado que lie cueste la produc
cion de cada libra de azdcar menos
de centavos, 10 cual e permite ha-
Ger, con utilidad la exportacion de
sus frutos a los Estados Unidos.
La azdcar de Jicalango ha sido cla-
sifcada en- Nueva York superior la
d. la isla de Cuba & igual q la de
Puerto. Rico.
Deseando ell Sr Requena proceder
con pleno conocimiento de causa, pa
ra no exponerse q un fracaso, y con
una prudencia muy loable, hizo antes
de comenzar sus operaciones de ex-
portacion, dos viajes q la isla dc Gu
ba, con objeto de yer por ST mismo la
manera de preparar la azdcar que Sc
manda de aquela isla al mercado de
Nueva York. En- esos viajes adqui
rio los conocimientos que lie han per-
mitido desarrollar, con tan buen re
sulta!o, sus operaciones de exporta
cion, que considero como los prime
ros pasos en- ell desarrollo a que est5
llamada la industria azucarera en- Ne

The effect of the hard times has
been shown as much in the falling Of
Of immigration to the United States,
Us III anything else. A steady decrease
has been going on since 1878 and SO far
this year the number Of arrivals Of ev.
cry nationality. except tho Chinese, is
considerably less than the correspond
ing time last year. In June, 1875,
there landed at Castle Garden, New
York, 1850 immigrants, against
20.602 in 1874. In the three months
ending the last Of June this year, the
total arrivals numbered As, 500, agains,
$3.50 of the same three months last
year, 4 decrease Of $3.50. We no.
lice, however, that while there is q
falling off in immigration on the At.
