Keeping Apples.

Mr. Pell, of Ulster county, the celebra
ted exporter of Apples to Europe, recon-
mends that apples after having been
picked should be laid on a floor, by
hand, without pouring from the baskets.
until they are II to Is inches deep, and
be left TO dry and season three weeks ;
when again packed in clean barrels, they
may be kept any reasonable length of
time and safely sent to any part of Eu-
rope or the East Indies. The plan Of
drying and seasoning them prevailed
generally some years ago, although now
a-days it is mostly discontinued and con-
sdered useless. We are disposed to
think favorably of this process when
it becomes important to keep apples safe
y ill next spring to send to foreign coun-
tries, for we have always observed that
on opening barrel few days after be-
ing put up, in ever so dry weather, that
the moisture often stands in drops over
the whole surfaces and although loose
barrels will allow It mostly to evaporate,
yet when they come in contact, the two
surfaces retain it and cause rot.
The carrying of apples in common
wagon, either before or after barreIing
is injurious-lhey should be moved on
springs or on sleds. The least abrasion
Of the skin, or crushing of the cells of
the pulp containing the juice, allows fer
mentation and decomposition, and the
consequent decay of The whole mass.
Apples will not freeze until at a tenn
perature Il from 5 TO 10 below the freez-
ing point of water, and it is beneficial to
keep them as cool as possible, even down
TO 80 degrees. Apples enclosed IN a
water-tigbt cask may be left in a cold
loft all winter without further care, aud
will be sound in the spring and perfectly
fresh.-Gen. Far.

WEATHER Signs. If the dew lies plenti-
fully on the grass after fair day, it is
the sign of another if not, and there is
no wind, rain must follow. A red eve
ming sky portends fine weather but if
it spread too far upwards from the horizon
in the evening and especially in the
morning, it foretells wind or rain, or both.
When the skyin rainy weather is tinged
with sea-green, the rain will increase
if with deep blue, it will be showery.-
When the clouds are formed like feeces,
bus dense in the middle and bright tow>
ards the edges, with the sky bright, they
are signs of a frost, with hail, snow, or
rain; and in summer, thunder. If the
moon looks pale and dim, expect rain
if red, wind and if.her natural color,
with clear sky, fair weather.

The purchaser not only succeeded in getting

after this transaction, the said Ice Company

The Miil-WheeI,

Within the mill wheels dripping cave
How flies the white cleaning spray,
In music falling en- the wave
That dances to the open day
How cool the eddies of the stream,
In lazy beats returning slow,
About the black and roughened beam,
Whose messy feet are far below!
The mill above is racked with noise.
And gray with clouds that ever iy;
And now hear the miller's voice,
AS here and there the workmen ply.

The din of bargains in the hall:
The wheel beneath the RATED floor
Groans on the willing slave of all.
Unheedful of the summer wind,
That Ger the level water skins,
Unheedful of the frosts that bind
With icy blades its dripping rims
Nor ever Stacks its measured sound,
To think of all it has to do,
But patient turns its endless round,
gas if its will were endless, too.
BY night the water-gate is drawn;
Within the wave the wheel is still.
And waiting for the lingering dawn
1t rests beneath the lonely mill.
Sleep, busy wheel "a respite ask
When all thy daily work is done:
And would thy fixed and endless task
Were less the image of my own

A Memory of September.

n AASAoAy VI SCPtCAUCA'
One night in the month of September,
When leaves were beginning to sore,
And skies seemed to dimly remember
The Summer that lay on its bier;
Came ONE who all day had been lowering
Our dwelling of sorrowing near,
MARIETTA with his wings of white covering
AS Autumn the leaves of the year.
For days through that signing September
Wed watched for the PRESENCE that stood
In our midst, and knew he'd be tender
In bearing our darling to God;
Yet our spirits, when hers had been given,
Bent writhingly under the rod;
MARIETTEs sinless soul was in heaven,
Its beautiful shrine in the sod!
Now, thrice has the month of September
Sent Summer beside her to sleep,
And thrice has the signing November
Bewailed that her rest was so deem:
Thrice the bird trilled for her its last warble
And l with September will weep;
'MARIETrE' on the slab of white marble.
