This Years Apple Crop.
BALDwINs, MENTIONS AND PIPPINs ENCIi
LENT IN QUANTITY AND QUALIrY.

The apple crop of last year was light one
and prices were high in consequence. Ac-
cording to the old tradition that alternate
years produce heavy crops, apples should be
cheap and plentiful tins year. Such, however,
will not be the case, as, from all accounts.
the apple crop of 1882 will not be much in
excess of that of the preceding year The
yield in the New England States is fair, bu,
not over-abundant. In many portions uf
New York the yield is very light. and in
Others of medium character only. The
New Jersey orchards have done pretty well.
The failure to the eastward, however, will be
more than compensated for by the better and
more abundant crops of the West. The
young orchards of Ohio. Kansas and Missouri
have borne largely, and the fruit is pro-
nounced of excellent quality. New York
dealers declare that no better apples are
marketed than those from the West.
Exporters of apples are of the opinion that
the winter price of apples will range from 81
to 81 per barrel, and may possibly go higher
A fair export trade is going on at the
present time, and the shipments to Europe
in single week recently amounted to $4,000
barrels. The varieties exported in former
years were Baldwins, Newtown pippins and
greetings, but this year the English dealers
are inquiring for fine table fruits, like the
Ben Davis and Winesap. In addition to the
export trade. driving will do much toward
making high prices for apples The demand
for the dried fruit increases each year, and il
is thought that those engaged in this
particular business will use up very large
proportion of this years crop.-Ciereiond

FREAKg OF PROHTBTTTON.

Chicago Tribune: There Is a man
lfest disposition among the Germans to
hold the Republican party responsible
for the prohibition agitation which is
prevalent just now in different parts of
the country The impression, 10 the ex-
tent that it is honestly entertained, is
due mainly TO the superficial obserya-
ton, that Kansas and Iowa, which have
voted in favor of prohibition, are Re-
publican Safes. The fact is ignored that
Maine which is overwhelmingly in favor
OF prohibition, is constant scene Of clOse
contenIion between Republicans and
Democrats. II Is also overlooked gem
orally that the Democratic party in the
south is much more committed to the
prohibition movement in that section
than the Republican party IL IN the
north or west. The latter condition has
been so manifest in Arkansas that the
Staats-Zeitung in this city has been con-
strained 10 point out that the bulldozing
in Helena, which was not necessary to
assure the state to the Democrats, was
mainly in the interest ofthe Probi-
bition candidates II is very likely that in
Iowa and Kansas the majority of those
who voted for prohibition were Republi-
cans, 1t could scarcely be otherwise in
states where the lesppblican majority is
so overwhelming. But the Germans who
are inclined on this account TO hold the
party responsible for the
prohibition movement will DOT find in
Iowa or Kansas any instance Of shCoting
men down because they refused To vote
for prohibition, Or taking possession of
The polls Ia order 10 exclude the anti.
vote. II remaiRed for the
Democrats of Askansas TO resort to such
measures. This experience
ought 10 be sufficient answer to any
effort at making prohibition a question.
This line of argument will be used in
sections where They hope thereby to
ALLEVIATE the German vote from the Re.
publican party, but Intelligent German

MIST EUROPEANS cor

Chicago Tribune; While the war in
Egypt drags its slow length aioBg, there
is an agitation going on an the Mussul-
man world ycry quietly but very steadi=
ly, which may yet break out In very
unpleasant manner unless the English
win some crushing victories, and even
then the rest of the Mediterranean shore
may be made uninhabitable to Europe
ans. Every now and then indications
of this trouble come 10 the surface, and
one OF these recently appeared in the
Paris Debats, in the, form of a letter
from a correspondent resident in Tripo-
Ii, who writes that the Europeans have
fled IN terror from BenghaZi, where dis
the origin Of these disturbances was in
Cobslantinople, the prime mover being
the Sheik Zalfar, who dispatched his
brother, an intimate friend of Arab Bey,
to Benghazi for that purpose. He fur
ther asserts that at Yndiz Kiosh the
residence of the Sultan at Constantine
pie, there is family of fanatical
Sheiks who have great jnAusnpe over
the Sultan and Who are busiiY engaged
plotting against Europeans all over
northern Africa The writer concludes
his letter as follows:
The weakness exhibited by Europe in
Egypt is threatening 10 produce terrible
results over the entire Arabic world.
Here we are living i'll perpetual panic.
No one can DOUBT that il the English do
not defeat q d punish Arab, or II they
leave Egypt for the Sultan to deal with,
all Africa will soon be in blaze. The
English, then, are quite right when they
claim To be fighting in the cause of civil
liZalion. But we Frenchmen, alas can
not but be conscious that tbs prestige
of England increases. Their impend-
ing victories will, without doubt, spare
US many a trouble; but they cannot re-
store 10 us that moral authority which
we have forfeited by our recent policy.
Formerly Inc Arabs believed France 10
be powerful enough la lie predominant
in all the terrltaFiea washed by the
Mediterranean they have now changed
that opinion Whatever may happen,

breasts of the Arabs II leaven of evil
