Old flour barrels,. unless carefully washed: and dried, will impart .a musty flavor tothe fruit before Midwinter, especially if theair in the cellar is moist. The first apples which are put in market barrels should be " faced." The facing consist in placing two or •three layers on the lower head with stems down; that is, with stems pointing. towards the head. Olean, bright apples of ordinary size should be selected for this purpose. The rest of the apples qty be poured into the barrel. This during, if properly done, will not injure the apples. Eggs can be poured. Use a basket with a swinging handle, one which can be lowered into the barrel if and turned while there, and '•hold th apples back with the hand, so that they will not pour out too rapidly. 'Two or three times during the filling shake the: barrel gently to settle the apples firmly, Face the Upper head in the same manner as the lower one. It is desirablenot to head`up"taelitii•rel-iit once. `Co er with boards to keep out the rain, and let the barrels' stand open .four or five days. It is not, lioweYerr aiivays po"ss-ib"le'°to d'over the barrels, in which .case they may_ _be headed up at once and turned down on their sides. In this condition they will .shed water.—American, Agriculturist for October.

Eliot, with a. •garriaon of 7,000 'men, The enemy emoted batteries, right across the sandy istlunna, while in• the bay they had forty-seven ships of the line And ten „ battering •ships," besides countless lesser craft. One night .the rook narrowly escaped being taken :by s rkrise. A Eoatberd having under- taken to guide the, Spaniards by a path then unknown to the English, 500 troops followed them one dark night, and crept silently to a hollow called the Silleta, or little chair" and thence to the signal station, where they slew the guard. There they awaited reinforcements from below; these, however, were delayed, and, 'thearrison meanwhile were. roused, and, sallying forth,, drove back the invaders. Silleta was immediately filled upand the. path utterly .destroyed •- and made inaccessible, and the neige. wore on through weary months..
