SAVING WINTER ApPLEs.-If you want
TO enjoy good apples next winter, now is
the time to ensure it, by putting them up
carefully. Select only perfectly sound ap-
pies, pack them in barrels or boxes, in dry
harl wood sawdust, so as not to touch
each other, and you will be paid for your
pains when you come to eat them. Ap-
pies are very scarce in many places, and
on account of the dry season have ripened
early, and will not keep FIRST rate for next
winter. 1t will pay to give them little
extra care in packing. /. n

Good Things from Nicaragua.

We had the plasurs of visit frsm Sol,
Kewsn, a distinguished officer of Gen
Walkers army, who delighted us by his
animated sketches Of the progress of the
good cause in Nicaragua. The Colonel
is man of fine intelligence. and gifted
with the powers of humor; his eonversa-
ton id the editoria. sanstua was almost
as dashing as bis conduct in the field
the men OF tne Vestra are possessed ap-
parertly Of many striking qualities, and
can win affection in private life as easily
as they win a battle from their foes.
Amongst other things the Colonel
amused US by capital anecdote of gall
liant officer in Walkers ranks who gave
one of the most ludicrous definitions Of
the relative courage of himself and Gen.
eral Walker, which we take the liberty
to imnortalize IN type. During one Of the
recnet battles some Niearaeuan bullets
passed unpleasantly close to his sdpt and
he very judiciously lodged to escape
them. His companions afterwards were
quizzing him on his apparent nervousness
principally because he was very vain of
his courage. and be replied forthwith
/" Gentlemen, by Jove, am as brave a
man as there is in the army and you are
| aware of the fact am as brave as Cen
eral walker himself The only difference
between US is, that he has no appreciation
Of physical danger while most positive
| ly have" The deliberate joke was one
of the most subtle compliments which could
be paid to tho commander, and came well
from the lips OF an officer whose own
courage was really uninpeachable.
Another characteristic reEnarkmention-
ed by our pleasant visitor was that of q
native officer who was taken prisoner al
the last battle of Granada. 1t appears
he shared the opinion Of his followers thai
the city was deserted by all ths active
men in Walkers army, and that only the
patients In the hospital were left behind.
His amusement at the result OF the Mica
raguan assault on the town-the terrible
and complete repulse, can be better I'M
imagined than described. Well. said

ike these fellows, never want to qusrre
