and for tito pnst few weeks the price has
been steadily advancing. Tho exnorb!tant
price of st0.5o mud Sll per box Is NOW
charged 1or them, and even pour lemons Mt
that. There is every probability OF this price
being advanced until the arrival Of the new
crop, the first shipment Of wliel, Is expected
this week. There are two reasons for the
scarcity. Tile .lcmand for lemons this su,n-
nler, owing tn tho extre.ne hot weather, has
BEEN very great, while the shipments curly
III tho spring were heavy and tll0 supply
rather light. To-Day tho market price Is
Sl0.50 and Sill, but

there Is every reason to believe the crop this
year will be n Et,ud one, For the past tel
months D0u.U00 boxes have beell shipped,

Add 10 to 70 per cent Oh this number for tic

London Letter.
Regular Correspondence)

LONDON, May 10, 1881.
Bright sunshine aud higher temperature
have characterized the latter portion of the
past week, but the winds have been for the
most part harsh and dry. Severe night frosts
in the earlier portion of the week have retard
cd vegetation, and n more genial temperature
with warm showers is still greatly needed.
The wheats have made but little progress, but
they retain their cheerful appearance. Spring
corn comes through the ground very slowly,
and until there Is rainfall it Is difficult to tell
whether there is n good plant or not. Crop
prospects SO far as they can at present be esti-
mated, are not, on the whole, unfavorable. The
demand for English wheat continues To be
very inactive, and values generally are from
twenty-five to fifty cents per Or Of eight bush
