THE LANDING OF TROPICAL FRUIT.
Important Order from Acting Secretar
of the Treasury French.

Important Order from Acting Secretary
of the Treasury French.
Under the new tariff act, which takes
effect July l, bananas, pineapples, plain
tains. shaddocks and mangoes are exempt
from duty. These are among the most
perishable of tropical fruits, and it is
/ therefore necessary that cargOes of them
should be discharged as soon after arrival
as possible. Frequently, when vessels
arrive after the custom house closes, it
/ is too late for them to be entered, and
/ if the fruits had to remain over night in
! the vessel it might result in great loss by
! decay, etc. Under the old tariff special
permits were issued for the landing of
these fruits by making a double deposit
of duties, etc; but as under the new law
there is no duty to pay, such deposit is
unnecessary. A prominent Southern law
yer who represented the fruit importers Of
the country before Congress, seeing the
difficulty that might arise on the LIST of
I July. addressed letter to the Secretary
Of the Treasury, and received in reply a
COPY of the order passed as given below:
10 Collectors Of Customs and others:
The department circular of April %, 1876,
authorizes. on the deposit with the Col.
lectOr of Customs of a sum equal to double
I the amount of estimated duties on tropical
fruit contained in vessels arriving WltnIn
a district, the issue of special permit of
/ the landing of the merchandise prior to
/ the entry of the vessel.
After the LIST proXimO such deposit can
no longer be made as regards some trOpi-
{ cal fruit for the reason that duties thereon
/ will be no longer payable. No good rea-
/ son exists why the change in the law
/ should lead to any material change in the
practice in regard to the delivery of such
/ fruit. and the regulations upon the sub
/ ject. therefore, may be considered as ap-
\ plicable to impOrtations thereof after the
I list prOximo with the exception that no
/ deposit of duties will be required on mer-
/ chandise embraced i'm the free list.

nentIy Organized Last Night-A Gen
eral Movement in Georgia.
A large meeting of the Builders Pro
tectiye Association was held at Metro
pOlitan Hall last night. Besides the
members who were enrolled at the nrst
meeting there were many others present,

night, stating that the builders OF that
city had. upon receipt of the notice of the
organization in Savannah. inaugurated a
similar movement there. Correspondence
has also been received from other cities in
