LETTER FROM NEW YORK.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES ofthe Monitor.l
Nolg York, September II, 1882.
All the spring the croakers croak-
ed. Our harvest was to be ruined,
and fruit was to be a forgotten luxu-
". We End on the contrary ava
Ianches Of peaches, some OF them
poor enough, it is true, and in fact
lots Of everything. There is q rage
for getting up exchanges for all sorts
Of things and domestic produce is
getting into the fashion on o larger
scale than ever. There has already
been established a dried fruit and
nut exchange and now there is an
agitation for a fresh fruit and veg
etable exchange. Farmers viii be
required to grade everything, 50 that
they can BIG sold by sample.
The gypsias are upon us. Eight
families have been imported to ex-
hibit their native dirt and ugliness
on the stage in the spectacular play
THE Romany Rye. They camped
at the corner Of Broadway and Cen
trail Park, and It is expected viii
reap q harvest from for5une-telling.
Probably the last Of the regattas
was sailed in Che harbor yesterday.
There was some twenty Of the small
er flyers, mostly under Thirty feet
long, but they were good ones, and
to the surprise Of every one, sever
al Of the little sloops beat the ca
tamarans hollow, the latter being at
least one-forth larger too.
Cricket has always been cultivated
70 some extent u TINS vicinity but
chiefly By Britishers and thair Off
spring. In Philadelphia it IS more
popular than baseball with every
body 4 Western eleven has de-
soended on US lately and knocked
spots out of the sons Of ST. George
and everybody else. One clergy
man was particularly happy il his
jQdiciou5 play and rolled up en0r-
nous scores.
Another invasion IS that Of the
Volunteer Sharp-sdooters Of Great
Britain (not including Ireland) they
seem, 20 fa as can be judged, to
shoot q good deal better than our
men. I fear we dwadled too long in
getting our team together. They
are individually excellent but don't
work as well together as if they had
been longer associated. There is q
general niggardlness, too, about
providing for their expenses which is
rather surprising, especially when
everybody is comparatively flush and
ought to feel good and generous
The winning and dining OF the visist-
ors seems likely 10 be- reduced 70 q
small scale; it looks mean consider
ing the royal way in which our men
were treated over there. If every
/ paper IN the country were to get up q
subscription q noble permanent fund
might be raised, and the benefit to
/ the cause generally Of rifle shooting
throughout the country would be i'm
mense.
Rowdy excursions, chiefly compos-
ed Of low foreigners not yet natural
lied, with dangerous element Of
the Bowery B'hoys, have been giving
considerable annoyance of late in
the neighboring towns. One village
up the Hudson after 2 few citizens
/ had been murdered one Sunday, arm
ed to resist any more such crowds,
and Che next Sunday drove eff all
visitors with an old cannon, among
other weapons. The other day there
was a terrible rumpu. at Elizabeth,
