TEN MINUTES IN MAKRET.-The piles
Of lemons and oranges, the many colored
flowers, the boxes Of red Strawberries and
tomatoes, the green peas and stacks
Of rhnbarb in great profusion made the
Second Ward market look quite at.
traCtiyc yesterday morning. But the
season ia yet 20 early that the prices Of
many Of The vegetables place them be.
You'd the reach OF persons with only an
ordinary income. The strawberries offered
for sale are not Of the highest quality, and
by no means plentiful. A dealer in them
confidently asserted that they would be a.
scarce for a month yet as they are now.
He demanded thirly.fye aud forty
cents a quart for them, and
got his price. As the supply
Of cucumbers increases their value Of
course diminisheS. Four for quarter
was the lowest at which they were offered
yesterday. Asparagus abounda, and
twenty-five cents will purchase half a
dozen punches. Cabbage from the South
brings ten and fifteen cents head. The
supply Of tomatoes is very limited, and
the price is exceedingly fancy. A buck.
ster asks twenty-five cents per dozen for
them and never bushes. The same high
figures prevail with regard to new pota.
toes, which are fifty cents per half
peck. At that rate but few Of them
will lie consumed by those TO whom
they arc in a large measure
the staff Of life. At 60 cents per peck
"Iel MS have peas" Is not often heard, and
the individual who pays 81 per peck for
beans is neither the proprietor Of board.
ing house nor q hotel, but a gentleman
who drives around in his coach and sup
ports liveried servant. Just think Of
one dollar for peck Of pIebian beans |!
And yet the intellectual Boston patrician
freely ierlilizes his glowing brain with
the article. The market is oyerstocked
with rhubarb, and great stacks Of the
green plants are for sale at the rate Of ten
punches for % cents. New Bermuda
onions bring 81 per peck, lemons thirty
and forty and oranges twenty-five and
forty cents dozen, pineapples twenty and
thirty cenlseach and bananas Eve cents
