son that has ever been gathered in the
Atlantic States. In New York and New
Jersey the fruit trees have not suffered in

ness of the season, and the growers are

gentleman who has Just returned from a
visit to Maryland says that the fruit germs
have not been injured in the least. either
in that State or in Delaware. The peach
trees are unusually vigorous, and all the
buds appear to be remarkably healthy.
They will not be in bloom before April
20. or nearly a month later than the ap-
pearance of the blossoms last year. and
this is favorable to n good crop. The
smaller fruits, such as strawberries. rasp-
berries, and ackberries, will all be later
than usual in blooming, by two or three
weeks.

Mexican MangOeS.

Editor Haskell, of the Boston Herald, has been eating the mango in Mexico. He says that this deliciors fruit Is apt at first to embarass and perplex a stranger to no small degree. In shapr 1t resembles a pear with tue stem at the wrong end, flattened, however. like a beau, and with the small end turned over to one side, something like the fig ures common on cashmere shawls. "In- side Is a very large seed, which forms a considerable impediment to the enjoy ment of the inexperienced Mir. Has kell relates, flor the pulp IS joined to this III a stringy way, anl it Is difficult to handle the slippery thing. A thor Oughly ripe mango has a kind of com binatiOn of muskmelOn md baked cus- tard aspect and texture t. its deep vel low pulp, and it's rich flavor is indescrib- able except that when eaten for the first time 1t seems to have slight trace of terpentine, which disappears on acqu iintance. The large yellow variety see med to me to have very slight and delicate flavor of peanut candy. The person who eats @ mango for the first time generally cOv- CTS himself with confusion and his face with mango pulp and juice, which IS very sticky and yellow, so that he looks as if somebody had been feeding him with soft-boIled eggs in the dark. It will not do to eat mango as one would an ordinary fruit, the correct way being to use a mango fork, whlch has but one tine. and therefore IS really not fork at all, but spit. With this the fruit is impaled at one end and t.e point thrust firmly in the seed, whicl may thus be stripped of its last pulp without soiing the fingers.

What beautiful | feet, with high arched ilsteps, and such ankles, surely Cinderilla must have left descendants among these Mexican beau ties But it struck me fJrcibly that this
 youthful beauty soon fades, that the rounded lines and curve 8 of beauteOus

 portions of middle-aged wOmanhOOd,

 We would say of our people, bat not of

 Mexican ranchero's wife Is only the
 mother of lis children. She Is never consulted on business. Hers IS life of indOlent ease frightened by love for her children and such light
 amusements as may be won from the guitar, pasea with her family, or an occasional visit to a neig lboring ranch, often from tan to sixty miles distant

But the men are sharpers in every case. Beg of you they will if they cant swindle you, but once convinced that you gre broke, why then they will divide their purse with you at any time. But from the time an American puts his foot oE Mexican soil, he IS whip-sawed, ground beneath the neither mill stone," as it were, until his last peso has been secured, and he is left stranded on a fOreig. shore" as the old song says.-BIl Dada, the scribe in Once a Week.

ADMIRAL BALDWIN MAD.
How He Was Left Out in the Cold at the
 Coronation.

Minister Hunt, the representative Of the United States at the court ot the czar, has become entangled Tn dlti- culty with Admiral Baldwin, wtO was
 sent to Russia as Daval ambassador
 bearing tidings of goodwill to the Rus sian monarch In an official report con corning his visit and the coronation cere- monies, the admiral speaks Tn the hIgh- est terms of the treatmSnt received by himself and staff from Russian officials, but stress IS laid upon his failure to Ob- tam an invitation to the church m which the ceremony took place. The United States minister Is held respOnslble for the oversight, because, as Admiral Bald win states, the former mixed up the naval ambassador pell-mell with the CIV 1lian attaches of the embassy, and the court chamberlain was particular only to send cards to persons bearing the name of Hunt All the members of the minister's family were present at the coronation, but the admiral and his par ty were left out in the cold among the Russian rabble. The slight was keenly felt, but no attention was paid to the matter tlll the admiral declined to at teEd the state ball the evening of the coronation. The cause If his decllnatlOn was promptly gwen, and resulted m Q visit from the minister If foreign affairs and the emperor's personal aid, both of whom were prOfuse in apologies. Final ly the admiral, who wat on the way to his vessel with his officers, was induced to reconsider his determination and at- tend the ball. Here tho party met with marked consideration :.t the hands of the czar. At subseq lent receptions every effort was made t1 recOmpense the Americans for their disappointment. The admiral, however, ID his communi- eaton expresses the opi aion that Minis ter Hunt was too intent upon fixing hls family and friends, among the latter being Bonanza Mackey and wife, to at tend to the naval Rn oassadOr and his escort.

THE Native Cubaas still long for an independent form of government. The galling yoke of Spain bears as heavily upon them now as it did during the dark days of the late rebellion, Tn which they made such heroic but unsuccessful ef- forts to gain their liberty. A meeting of the Cuban residents of New York, a short time since, in persuRnce of patTi- otic circular signed by General Bona ches, was held at Clarendon Hall; two hundred persons were present; the hall was decorated with the American and Cuban flags. General BOnaches ad- dressed the patriot exiles, recounting the utter failure of the mother country to fulfil her promise of liberties and re- forms, made only to be broken. The country was oppressed and war was B necessity. Mir. Lanza, the editor of Fl Americana and Fl Tourista, said that the actual state of the struggle in Cuba was not one of conspiracy. It was state of revolution repressed by false promises made by the Spanish Government which would never be fulfilled. The Spanish tyrants compelled Cubans to resort again to arms as the only means of Ob. taining their liberty. This was the sec ond period of the Cuban revolution. It Is not now guided by hate towards the Spaniards. It proposes to oppose every one who stands back and does not aid in the fight for the freedom of the country -Cubsns, Spaniards, or whatever they are. The Spanish inhabitants of Cuba are themselves demoralized, and many of them are suffering wrongs at the hands of the mother country, and they, like the Cubans, should lend helping hand to save themselves. It was neoes- sary to issue proclsmations and appeals to stimulate exiles and organize them politically.
 Quite large contribution was volunt- arily made for revolutionary purposes. A committee was appointed to commun- icate with General Bonachea in regard to all matters connected with the object of the meeting.

WHAT FoLeER SAYS OF THE TRADE DOLLAR.

| WHAT F0LGER SAYS OF THE TRADE DOLLAR
 Secretary Folger has addressed let ter to a gentleman Tn New York in reg. ard to the trade dollar, in which he says 'FThe name given to the coin by the coinage act of 1873, the actual use to which it was first put, in accord with the anticipation of the law makers who passed the act of what the use of it would be; the contemporary discussion and comment upon it when 1t was creat ed; the readiness of Congress to take away its legal tender quality when it was seen that it was put to different use, and the usage of the government through the period of its existence-sll tend strongly to show that it may not now, by mere executive order, be -en- dowed with the prerogative which you attribute to it. At any rate I shonld hesitate to advise the power you assert to him rather than to await the reassem- bling of congress and such action as it may choose to take. You are already aware that joint resolution of Con gress, approved July B, 1876. provides as follows:-"That the trade dollar shall not hereafter be legal tender" which is very significant. As this resolution has not been rescinded or modified this department has conceived that it has no authority to order Sub-Treasury officers to receive trade dollars, as indicated in your letter" This expression was called forth in answer to letter from the gen. tlemsn above referred to in which he took the ground that President Arthur had ample authority to order their re- ceipt at the Treasury the same as stand ard silver dollars"
