We have alluded above to the loss on
ora nges in transit, being at an average OF
"A per cent. This is a very serious draw.
back 10 prosperity in the business, and at
present affects Us as much as our more
distant competitors. The average loss on
bananas ia 221 per cent. and on pine
apples &c per cent, while that or cocoa
nuts is as low as 6 per cent. The loss on
lines is SO per cent; grape fruit, 10 per
cent ; shaddocks, 33 per cent; plantains,
20 per cent; and On mangoes, the loss
reaches the high figure of SO per cent.
a proof that, as limited by us yesterday, a
harder mango than that shipped now
is required for the export trade. The loss
on the smaller and rarer fruits averaged 25
per cent. These losses point to the desi-
rability Of faster service and better ventlla'
ton. especially for the West Indian trade'
in which the deductions due to natural rot
ting, to the bruises received in handling,
and the jostling of package with package,
are almost prohibitive in character.
Taken altogether, the figures published
by our contemporary are full of hope for
Jamaica exporters. We find the demand
for tropical fruit steadily increasing. and
we find also that we are taking a very
respectable place in the list OF fruit ex-
porting islands. The largeness OF the
market to be supplied may be estimated
from the fact that New York received
about 24O million oranges nom the Nj"
diterranean, in addition to all that were
sent 10 from the West Indies and from the
Southern States. We can grow fine fruit
Of all kinds cheaply, and owing to our con
tiguity we should be able to land it at
point Of destination with very low percen-
tage Of loss.
The article from which we have quoted
suggests q simple remedy for the preserva-
tion of orange trees from disease. ''This
remedy consists 10 thoroughly securing the
bodies and large limbs of the tree with
common soap ard hard sand. One or two
applications will entirely eradicate the
parasites, and render the bark of the trees
perfectly smooth and healthy. Had this
simple process been applied to the orange
trees of Katauzas, Cuba. many years ago,
they would not have been destroyed by
this d eadful pest"

WEST INDIAN EXPORT FRUITS.
From the Jamaica Glcaner.)

Our contemporary the "New York
Times" published lately some particulars
with regard to the foreign fruit trade of
New York. The report, for such in fact
it lie, goes to show a slight general increase
during 1879 of the West Indian fruit i'm
ported, aud a greater increase in the fruit
imported from the Mediterranean,
1t 10 stated hat the trade in the Medi-
terranean fruit during last year proved
very disastrous for TIE producers, on &C.
count of low prices, bad order Of cargo on
delivery, and in respect to oranges,
the ravages of a parasite. The importa.
tions of ora pges from the West Indies con
sisted Of 16 cargoes and parts of cargoes by
s~ailers, and 1876 barrels per steamers.
Kingston sent S1,2S6 barrels containing
7,450,l0O oranges, of which nearly half
persisted on the voyage. Montego Bay
sent l39 barrels. comprising 771.661
oranges, and Of these also nearly half per.
isbed. Trinidad sent 445 barrels, contain.
ing 2S5,9l5 oranges, but the trade must
have proved rather Improbable as no few
or than 2l4,438 persisted. Coming to
bananas, we find that Kingston sent to
New York per steamer, 1895 bunches ;
Montego Bay, per steamer. a6.l34 lunches
and Port Antonio. per sailsr. 2s,S23 bum
ches. Trinidad sent only es4 punches, but
Baraeca led the way with 1911 1888 lunches.
Cocoanuts were imported as follows from;
Kingston. SIS 900; Montego Bay, 15s.s63;
Fort Antonio. 112, 704 ; Port Maria.
100000; st. AIMS Bay, 5000 ; Falmouth
245,0O4; giving q total from Jamaica to
New York of about 700, 900 out of the
grand total of eight millions. There were
also imported 2l,14s pioe apples from
Kingston, and 16,466 from Montego Bay,
out of Q grand total of some 81 million.
We notice also importations of 9ss barrels
lines. 10000 grape fruit, 5.144 shad-
docks, 5000 pIautains, and $4,000 man
goes /; also small quantities of mandarius,
canteloupes. sapodlllas, alligator pears,
manna apples and water melons. The
value Of all the green fruit entered for
consumption at the port of New York
dar'og the year was s~3,S59,549 giving q
duty OF $6s9,44l so; and a comparison
with the previous year shows ian increase

A FORTY DAYS FAST.

DR., Tanners's fast is paralleled by that
of a woman, Cicely Rijgway, as recorded
in judicial records. A writer in Saturday,
Night, q forgotten magazine belonging to
the early part of the present century, but
full of curious matter, states that the cir
cumstances of this fast are thus mentioned
In an old work containing the reports of
many extraordinary %trials.,' "In the
3lst year of the reign of that glorious
Prince Edward Ill, and that of our Lord
1347, there was one Cicely de Ridgway,
or Rygewa, indicted for the murder of her
husband, but, she refusing to plead and
continuing mute Notwithstanding all the
arguments and threats the Judges could
use to her, they adjudged her at last to
fast 40 days together in a close prison with
out any meat or drink. This she actually
did. For proof of this extraordinary alb
s~tinence I shall produce a translation OF
the record lodged in the Tower, which
runs thus:-'The King. to all bailiffs and
other bis liege subjects to whom these
presents shall come &C., greeting. Be it
known unto you. that whereas Cicely, who
was the wife of john Rygeway, was lately
indicted for the murder of the said Johns
her husband. and brought to her trial fox
the same before our beloved and faithful
Henry Grove aud his brother Judges at
Nottingham, but that, continuing mute
and refusing to plead to the same indict.
ment, she was sentenced to be committed
to close cutody, without any victuals or
drink, for the space of 40 days. which she
~miraculously, and even contrary to the
course of human nature, went through, as
we are we'll and fully assured from persons
of undoubted credit. We do. therefore.
for that reason and from q principle of
piety to the glory of God, and of the blessed
Virgin His mother, by whom it is thought
this miracle was wrought, out of our speci-
al grace and favour, pardon the said Clcely
from the further execution of the sentence
her, and our will and pleasure is that
she be freed from the said prison, and no fnr.
ther trouble given her upon the account OF
the said sentence, &c.-In witness whereof

New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1880-07-28

Having last week published Gen.
Garield's letter of acceptance, and
wishing to place the Republican
candidates for President and Vice
President fairly before our readers,
we this week also publish in our
local columns General Arthur's let
ter of acceptance. Commenting
upon this letter the Pioneer Press
editorially says: ''Most people will
frankly confess it is a better letter
than they expected. Of course it is
full of the echoes Of the last New
York canvass and rings the changes
on the danger of return of the
South to power and the payment of
the southern claims; but so much Of
this part at least as refers to the
federal election laws is in accord
with Republican sentiment every
where. Strangely enough, when he
comes to speak Of civil service re-.
form, Gen. Arthur is both more ex-
plicit and more practical than Gen.
Garfield. He favors the application
to the public Of precisely the rules
that govern a large private business,
which seems to be ideal civil service
reform. Gen. Arthur responds to
the most advanced Republican SEN
timents on the tariff more readily
than his associate on the ticket,
though Of course, the Chicago plat.
