The countries and islands from which
this fruit was imported are Mexico,
Central America, British, French and
Danish West Indies, Cuba, San Domin-
90, Hayti, Colombia, Venezuela, British
Guiana, Brazil, England, France, Spain,
Portugal, Italy and Sicily. The traffic
possesses its full share of uncertainties
and a large margin is allowed for
profits, but a Spectator has got to take
his chances. The gradually increasing
use of steamers in the place of sailing
vessels is reducing the chances of loss.
The Mediterranean trade is increasing
from year to year, as well as the trade
from South America. The importation
of bananas has been doubled since 1881,
but striking offset is offered to this
increase in the very notable decrease in
the importation of oranges, the most
| popular of all the imported fruits. Tho
deficiency seems to have been partially
made good from the orange groves OF
Florida. Aside from the immense guam
tity of fruit consumed by the people OF
New York City and its vicinity, which
exceeds that consumed by any city in
the world, not excepting London OF
Paris, there are many shippers upon
whom the importers rely to take the
surplus. These dealers purchase in
quantities and ship the fruit immedi-
ately to all parts of the country. Y

Abyssinians.

Seven out of every ten persons met
with have some kind of disease, show
ing itself in sores and eruptions. No
doubt their excessive dirtiness spreads
disease more than anything else. The
women, for instance, wear simple
long gown, like an ordinary nightshirt,
originally whitehall state we have not
vet seen-but worn to various shades
of dirt, round about the neck-band be-
coming a eliot of black grease, caused
by the continuous plastering of mutton
fat on their heads to stifie the life that
is so easily set in motion by a filthy
condition of hair. The fashions of head
dress are various, some wearing their
hair short and curly like the men; and
men as well as women wear it in thin
plaits taken from the forehead down
back over the Uranium in corduroy fash
ion, but knotted on the nape of the
neck. Young girls will cut their scalps
close, leaving halo of fringe termina-
ting in loose streamers behind. This is
indeed very pretty, especially round a
handsome face, which is not by any
means uncommon in Abyssinia; and, in
addition, drapery carelessly thrown
about their well shaped figures (worn
when their gowns are in rags) would
attract even the hardest-hearted of our
mission, but for the usual, as well as the
optical, knowledge of their uncleanli-
ness. The men look little cleaner, but
there are no other signs, the rancid
mutton fat impregnating the atmos,

Foreign Fruit in New York.

Most of the foreign fruit brought to
this city comes from Central and South
America, the West Indies. and the
Mediterranean. A large proportion of
the oranges come from the West Indies,
and so do the bananas. The first ba-
nanas ever brought to this city were i'm
ported in 1904 by Captain John N. Ches-
ter, of the schooner Reynard. He
brought thirty punches. On the voy-
age the schooner fell in with three
French frigates in company, on one
of which was Jerome Bonaparte, then
on his way to Baltimore to marry Miss
Patterson. The Captain presented a
bunch of bananas to him. The re-
malnder of the fruit on its arrival here
was purchased by the late Anthony
Crappau of the old Fly Market at the
foot of Maiden Lane. There is great
loss on green fruit imported from the
West Indies and Central America.
Sometime this is due to long and tenn
pestuous voyages, during which it is
found necessary to close the matches of
the vessels for hours together to prevent
the sea from entering the holds. 1t is
essential to have the matches kept open
the entire passage. On the other hand,
that portion of the fruit slowed upon
the decks of vessels is often seriously
injured by sea water. Pineapples have
to be slowed in the holds of vessels dur
ing the rainy season each year, and yet
they are likely to spoil there because
there is no opportunity for the water to
dry out of the crown of each pine.
They soon heat and decay, and on their
arrival are thrown away.
The growth of the trade has been
rapid in the past dozen years. 1t has
excited surprise in mercantile circles,
and capitalists who have been casting
about for chances to make investments
in new fields have at last found one in
the tropics. The impetuous rush of new
| spectators, while it has been charac-
terized by little caution and much bold
ness, has given grand impetus to the
trade. The box fruit trade, being less
liable to the caprices of fortune than
the West India trade, has thrived pro
digiously. The Importance of the trade
may be estimated from these figures.
The value of green fruit entered fol-
consumption at the port of New York,
from January l, 1888, to December 81,
1888, is exhibited in the following table

The Wheat Crop.

WASHINGTON, April l0.-Returns of
che department of agriculture make
the winter wheat area about 27,O0O,-
0Oe acres. The present area is greater
than that of the census year by more
than two million acres. The greatest
increase is on the Pacific coast and in
the Southern states The condition
of wheat averages 95. The state
averages are as follows: Pennsyl
vania, 80; Tennessee. SO; West Vir-
gina, loo; Kentucky. SO; Ohio, SS;
Michigan, Kentuky, 50; Ohio, So
Michigan, "a; Indiana, 81; Illinois,

is reported, except in Alabama. Or
low and wet areas some injury is re
ported throughout the entire breadth
The superior condition of drilled
wheat is attested almost withouG ex'
ception.
The area OF rye is nearly the same a
last year, the average being 80 pc!

The American Register thinks that q
monument to Mr.. Tilden, should be
erected IN Washington city while he
is yet living, said monument to be a
memorial of the execration in which
the people hold the Presidential steal
of 1876. "The sanction of manifest
fraud by the partisan action of
q majority of the Electoral Commis
sion was crime against the majesty
of the people; and that defeat of popu-
lar government, and this fraud upon
the Constitution and the country
should not be allowed to pass into OBJ
livion, but should be marked by a
perpetual memorial in condemnation
Of the nefarious act of perfdy, and as
a warning to future generations.
We hope our esteemed authority
has not forgotten the living pages of
written history. The history of that
unpatriotic, villainous transaction will
be more enduring and more effective
as warning and as a teacher to fu.
ture generations than shafts of granite,
marble or brass.
