BOTTLING CIDER.

TO the Editor Of the Nsao England Farmer.
SIR,-As the time approaches when those who
bottle cider must be taking some precaution to pre-
serve their bottles from bursting, take the liberty
10 sugges, to your country readers method, new,
cheap and effectual for preserving both cider and
bottles through the heat of summer. In swamps,
sprngy and cold great quantities of moss are found
which may be easily gathered. With this cover
your bottles, set the ground in the northerly part
of the cellar, and with water pot drench the moss
with cold water once week, or once perhaps in a
fortnight will be sufficient. This have found from
several years experience, perfect security for the
bottles and much less trouble than any other meth.
cd have tried or heard of 1t answers all the pur-
poses of burying them in sand is less work, and
leaves the bottles much cleaner. Moss is easily
obtained in the country, from low, cold lands, and
when wet retains moisture long. One covering
will answer two or three years.

NEW YORK GENERAL SESSIONS.


NEW YORK GENERAL SESSIONS.
The People as. abraham f. Bush-BIcAMr.
The prisoner was brought 10 lrsl at the last Apri
term on an Indictment for Bigamy. 1t contained
two counts. The first count charged him with
marrying Ann Meina, living his wife Fanny Har.
i he second count charged him with marrying
Ellen Castang, living lis wife Ann Meina
II appeared from The evidence on the trial, that
the prisoner was married 10 Fanny Harris in the
year l806-that he was again married TO Ann
Meinals on The 9th of November 18l9-and that
he was again married to Ellen Caslang, on the Sd
of July, 1928.
Fanny Harris and Ann MenalI were both living
at the time of the prisoners last marriage to Ellen
CasaDg
Price, Tor the prisoner, stated two objections.
LIST. The unlawful marriage to Ann Meinail took
place in November, 18l9 and The statute OF mta-
lions required the Indictment to be brought within
three years next after the offence shall have been
committed. More than three years have elapsed
IN thls case, and conviction cannot therefore be
had on the first count
Cd. The second count cannot aid the prosecutor
1t AYERS the marriage OF the prisoner with Ann
Melna to have been lawful marriage, and char
ges the 3Igamy TO have been committed by the
marriage oil he prisoner to Ellen Casang. From
the evidence, It appears that the marriage of the
prisoner to Ann Meina was void, inasmuch AS
Fanny Harris his lawful wife, was living at the time
OF such marriage.
The counsel observed, he was convinced hat both
objections were unanswerabe indeed the last point
had been expressly decided in Lady Matlison's case
at the Newgate Session. in l646 The case was
stated by Hale, TO the following effect
" takes b TO husband in Holland, and then in
Holland takes G, to husband, living d. and then b.
