ALTHOUGH there Is occasion for con
graduation, from business point Of
view, in the aspect Of national affairs, the
tide Of bankruptcy for the moment is
frightful. Some Of this is due to tho an.
nual settlements perhaps; but good
deal Of II is due TO the after crop which
has sprung up since The first crop,-part'
les who have been set up after their frat
failures, or in place Of those who have
failed and who refused to see that there
was no place for them. Dun & Barlow's
circular claims that the bankruptcy law
has greatly encouraged this sort Of thing.
They say there is no wedding out" no
long as this law encourages parties 10 $50
in" and run the risk Of repeated failures
1t becomes, apparently, question Of the
patience Of the. Wholesale trade who sci up
these dealers where there il no call fol
them. The failures for the past ycnI
were 0O02 in number, against 774O in
1875, but the liabilities were only $751;.
10000, against S2Ol 100000 in 1875 and
SOS, 499,o 900 in 1873. 1t is the period Of
failure Of small firms, the average liabil.
tiles being only S2l 900, against $4,000
in 1878. The New England states, for the
past year, have averaged one failure to
50 in business, the South one in ca and
the West one in ~, Canada one in 80 and
England, for 1875, one in SO.

COFFEE IN MEXICO.

The following statements in regard to
the production of coffee in Mexico are
from Hon John W Foster, United States
Minister to that country. 1t may be an
unknown fact to many Americans that
at our very doors, in Mexico, our neigh
boring Republic, there exists the agri-
cultural capacity to produce all the cof-
fee that can be consumed in the United
States, and of quality equal to the best
grown in ary country. Mexico, it is
true, is exporting very little coffee, and
scarcely figures in the coffee producing
countries, but its capacity and adaptable
ity for its production have been tested
by more than fifty years of successful
cultivation. The typographical and eli
matte character Of the country is admir-
ably adapted for this purpose. The cof
fee producing regions are found on the
entire line Of the sea-slope of the noun
tains from Guatemala ON the south, on
the Pacific side, for more than a thous
and miles to the north, until it reaches
line in the State of Sinaloa, where oc-
casional frosts endanger the crop, and
also for more than thousand miles on
the Gulf coast from Yucatan into Tama-
ulipas. In addition to these immense
stretches of country it hourishes in the
numerous and fertile valleys of the in
terror, wherever the great table land is
sufficiently depressed to reach the level
of the tropical and semi-tropical vegeta-
ton. The elevation above the level OF
the sea at which it is thought coffee is
most hvorably grown Is from 1000 to
1000 feet; but in Mexico it is cultivated
with success at an elevation of 400 feet,
and is found even still higher. So also
| it is grown at lower levels than 1000
feet, a. in various places in Mexico 1t is
produced at the very seaside OFF the
eastern coast of Yucatan, on the Island
of Cozumel. coffee trees of prolific yield

brought under cultivatson.
