Shopping on the Sea.

People after a long sea-Tovage are
naturally eager for fresh fruit. A lady
correspondent Of the Adgunce. who was y
passenger on one of the Pacific mail
steamships, informs us how her desire
was gratitied while the vessel lay at an
Choir five miles off helittle Mexican coast
town of Mazatlan. The natives came out
in boats, bringing tempting supplies of
the produce Of the country.
Here were huge clusters of bananas,
pluckcd freshly from the tall palms which
we could see quite plainly on the land,
OF most exquisite flavor; pine apples,such
as can only be ripened under warm
mellow, tropical sun: lines of pleasant
acidity, suggestive of cool lemonade
oranges, too large to hold comfortably in
your hand, unless it be large one, and
eocoanuts melons and manooes in album
dance
That is what the merchants offered US
Now how dill we buy them?
The distance between us was about the
same that it would be if we had been
standing at the upper window af an or
binary two-storied house, and the boat
man on the ground, and there was such
clamor OF voices of men and women call
ing their wares and their prices, that it was
quite deafening at first
But when trade had fairly begun, il
was quite easy and pleasant, and certain
~ 1t was novel way of doing shopping
Suppose we wished some bananas. VIZ

tine, ripe ones attract his attention, as
un ri hat. n
call out, "bananas-here;;n and he answers
in queer Mexican fashion, sssBa-nan-a
yes
''How much?"
zone bunch-ffteen cents
"You send them up"
Then he puts his fruit in light wicker
basket or twine bag, to the handle OF
which long rope is attached, and throws
one end of the rope to us. If we were
sNllful enough, we may catch it the first
time, but probably not, for the distance is
considerable, and it often becomes quite
exciting to watch the attempts of pur.
chasers to get their goods.
One young lady Of our party nearly fell
overheard when reaching for the rope
But when it S once secured we gently
draw up the bag Or basket take out the
fruit and put in the money, and toss i,
down into the boat quite carefully, lest
the money should be lost.
Nov we may like to get some Of the
curious necklaces which the women have
to sell. If 50, we shall do well to wait
until it is nearly time for the
steamer to leave, as prices diminish
rapidly in proportion to the time in max
ing sales.
