The Land Of Oranges.

The state of Florida raised this year
over 50,000,000 oranges, and this was a
short crop. l asked DR.. Harris, the
speaker of the house, to night. what the
crop would be five years from now, and
he answered: "At least five times that
much, or 250, 200, ,000r' "And five years
later?" "Ah! figures fail for that CON-
pilation," he said, laughingly. l have
seen nothing in print that gives an ade-
quate idea of the immensity of the cul-
ture. In the old days orange-growing
was a fancy pursuit, indulged in here
and there. A grove of 500 trees was
then large one. The finest grove in
Florida is the Speer grove, near here,
which covers only six acres and has $50
trees. The next best is the Hart grove,
at Palatka, which has 700 trees. The
first is worth $4,000, and yields $780,
600 oranges, on the trees $15 thousand.
The crop this year Ga short year,, sold
for $500 on the trees. The Hart grove
is worth 100000, and yields about &c.
600 year. The only reason that these
groves are so valuable is that the trees
are about 40 years old, and in full bear
ing. Now, Mr.. Markham, of Atlanta,
has near the Speer grove, with its GOO
trees, grove of 600 young trees just
"coming in." as they call it. His son,
Marcellus, has 1000 trees, of which on
ly 600 are bearing, and Judge Hayden
grove of 1000 trees just bearing their
first fruit. Gen. Sanford a grove of s..
900 young trees. Mr.. W. I. Trawick,
of Macon, grove of 5000 trees. From
these figures, samples of hundreds of
others, it will be seen that orange-plant-
ing for the past few years has been a
business on large scale instead of a
fancy, as formerly. For example, Mr..
Markham's grove will produce ten times
as many oranges as are produced by the
Speer grove, now the finest in the state.
Gen. Sanford's grove alone will produce
more oranges than are now produced in
radius Of eight miles which has 392
groves. Or, to make it palmer, Sanford
is the center of the largest orange-pro-
ducing portion of the state. In radi-
us of eight miles from this hotel there
are 1892 groves, with 1867 trees.
These groves now produce 2,500,000
oranges, but only 5 per cent. of the trees
in this radius are bearing. When the
other 95 per cent. come in, this radius
of eight miles will produce 100000
oranges from grove that in six years
will produce 100000; Judge Hayden
100000 from grove that in four years
will produce 100000; Gen. Sanford
$4,000 from grove that in six years
will produce 100000; and SO on
through the list. In addition to the ac-
cessions from these groves coming in,
the groves now bearing will increase
their yield annually for many years, as
the full fruitage of tree is not reached
under twenty years. In addition to this
there are thousands of new trees being
put out annually that in five or ten years
will add millions to the crop. 1t will
be seen, therefore, that the estimate of
250,000,000 oranges as the crop for 1887
is very reasonable one. Indeed, itmay
just as likely be twice that much. In
ten years it will certainly be 500, 900, 900,
with indefinite expansion beyond that
point.-Florida Letter.

The St. Gothard tunnel is now daily
traversed by eight trains, four each
way. Touching solidity Of construction,
the tunnel leaves nothing to be desired.
The official inspectors express them
selves perfectly satisfied with the condi-
ton of the work. Particular attention
was paid to the windy stretch, which
has caused so much trouble and given
rise to so many fears, but the massive
granite masonry with which this part of
the passage is stayed seems admirably
adapted to its purpose, and shows no
sign of yielding to the immense pressure
that weighs upon it. The ventilation is
good, and no inconvenience was expert
enced from the temperature. The tun-
mel is lighted with lamps placed kilo'
metre apart.

Couldn't Stand the Drain.

Baron Rothschild, of Paris, says the
Norristown Herald, intends to have a
magnificent book published, which is to
be dedicated to the French capital and
to be devoted to the exposition of its in
terests, duties, etc. The Baron, as is
well known, is immensely wealthy, and
takes this method of getting rid Of some
of his surplus cash. He was advised to
come to this country and start an eight
page morning daily, but he declined,
saying he couldn't afford to lose more
than two millions q year.

No, Sir!

A Scotch minister once said no woman
could bear pain as well as man. That
is not so The fact is generally the other
way. Mrs. Edward Meyers, of Rondout,
N. Y, submitted to the operation of the
removal of her hand by amputation with
out taking either, or moving muctle, or
uttering a groan. DIR. Kennedy, also of
Rondont. N. Y, who performed the op-
Grafton. said he never saw such heroism.
I he LADY s disease was Erysipelas, and
afterward the Doctor gave his "Favorite
Remedy" to cleanse the Blood. Mrs.
Meyers is nOw we'll and strong. 2t

Hangs like ripe clusters Of tho apricot,
Thy blue Dyes, gazing, comprehend me not.
But lovo me, ani for love alone l care;

Outpeeptns coyly when the moon is hot
TO watch some shepherd piping unaware.

Crowned with o wreath of buds still dewy

Race Hatred.

The Washos Indian never did par
ticularly like Chinaman, but about the
time the Celestial New Year begins the
Washoe is polite enough to temporarily
desist from insulting the saffron hued
Oriental, and rather makes fent to
coddle up to him, expecting, of course,
to share in some Of the good food in
which the Chinaman INDUCES during
this period. This year the Cninaman
feels so poor that he can scarcely do
anything for Lo, and the result is that
the Indian makes it more interesting
than ever for John when he can find
him out Of sight Of the white man. 1t
is reported that yesterday afternoon a
couple Of young Washoe bucks caught a
solitary Chinaman near the cid planning
mill on the railroad, and cut off his pig
tail.

It will be recoIlected that short
time ago Jacob Tobriner was set afire
by patent cigar lighter called the
"Surprise Light" and it was ascer-
tanned that that class of dangerous in
struments was being sent through the

Department at Washington in relation
to the matter, and yesterday received
the following reply
Postmaster, Carson City, Nev.-In
consequence of the dangerous nature of
the "Surprise Light" the Postmaster
at New York City has been il structed
to take steps to prevent the mailing of
that instrument.

Took His Own Commitment.

Mike Cullen, the man convicted or
| Friday of selling whisky to Indians
was allowed to go upon his own recog-
nizanca until yesterday morning, the
time set for sentence. At the appointed
hour he came into Court unaccompanied
by an officer Judge Cary sentenced
him to Imprisonment in the County
Jail for the term OF ten days, and as
there was no one present to carry the
prisoner to the place of confinement,
his Honor trusted the commitment into
the hands Of Cullen, who personally pre-
scented himself at the Shcriff'S office
with it, and in accordance to law he
was locked up. There is only one
other instance on record where an of
fender against the majesty Of the law
had similar degree of confidence re-
posed in him. 1t is a circumstance
which will be remembered by many a
resident Of this city. About fifteen
years ago a German living at Snow
Tent, Nevada county, California, got
into trouble with a neighbor regarding
the ownership Of mining claim. The
quarrel terminated in a murder, perpe-
trated by the German. What the ex-
act circumstances leading t? the killing
were, the writer does not recollect, but,
at all events, the previous z Cd char
acter of the German tempered the
sternne!s Of Justice, and he was SEN
fenced to imprisonment in the Cali
fornia State prison for one year. At the
time appointed for his removal neither
the Sheriff nor his deputy were in po-
sitiOH TO leave tae county, and the
German, Whose nSme the writer has for
gotten. was given his own commitment
by the District Judge, with instructions
to deliver himself at the State Prison,
and he did SO. Upon his arrival at his
pisce of Imprisonment the authorities
supposed him to be an insane person,
and they accordingly telegraphed to
the District Judge of Nevada county,
who replied that the man was convict
and to keep HIM. But his term of in
generation was very brief, for the citi
zens of his camp, admiriEs the honesty
of the man, at once set to werk to Sc
cure his pardon, which was accom-
plished before he had been in the State
Prison three days. Cullen, however,
will rot play ia as coed luck as all that.
