DRYING APPLEs.-Coleman's Rural
World gives the following directions for
driving apples:
Dried apples are used ~ q necessity in
the place Of green apples. They are not

fresh juicy fruit. This is in cOnse-
quence of an error on the part Of those
who dry then. Almost any apples are
taken TO dry. Would a man take such
to eat-to use for cOoking' We don't
eat bad apples only when we get them
in the dried state. Not only that, We
get them in bad state, partially rotten,
sticking together, often tly-speckled. Ii
is habit more than anything else that
gives us such apples; we are also some
what careless; and considerably ignor-
ant. We are not aware for instance, or
do not realize it, that an apple dried is
still much the same that it was before
it was dried, excepting the juice. Thus
u sour apple will be sour when dried,
fully rs sour rs in its green state. If
hard and immature those qualities will
be UNNECESSARILY retained. If your APP
pie is sweet, you get it sweet, dried. II
it is good flavor when green, that
flavor will be retained when dried. If
the fruit is mellow when dried it will re-
tain its mellOwness. The best dried APP
pies, perhaps that are used, are the
Esopus SpitZenbergs-no when made
up as soon as picked; but when in mel
low state, as they will be in February
or March, or earlier if the season is
warm. Made then, when fly has no
access to them, and properly dried, there
Is nothing finer than the perfection of
the green fruit itself. Thus, winter dry
ing of fruit is better than when made
earlier. The dried fruit then is clean,
bright and mellow, and not harsh and

after; for fruit when dry must be kept

Dried apples may be made of an ex-
cellent flavor in the following manner ::

down To n ssft mass, add Ga few minutes

sliced thin, and stir well into the
mass. Some persons who were unac.
quainted With this method, took them
for some very superior fruit. 1t makes

FROM WASHINGTON,
stanton Ignored by the Presideni-
Discovery Of n Plot for she Rescue
Of surratt-Grant Responsible for
an. .RemoyaI Of sheridan.

the Nom Removal OF SnerioHn'
New YORK, August 9.--The Worlds
Washington special says: The Presi-
dent practically ignored Secretary Stan
ton TODAY by addressing cOmmnnlca-
tion TO Colonel Townsend, Assistant
Adjutant General of the army, instead
OF the Secretary of War, as Is customary.
The Times Washington special SAYS:
Some of the Washington detectives have
reported the discovery of plot to res
enc the prisoher Surratt, which may
have had some foundations, bnt II has
been nipped in the bud. Ii is certain
that the hotels in the immediate vicin-
ity of the Court House have been unu-
sually crowded, and that their guests
have mainly been Baltimoreans and
citizens from the rebel counties OF Mary
land adjoining the District.
A man, who has been arrested as a
ringleader in the supposed lot, assert
ed that big things might he expected
tonight, and il is presumed that he re-
ferred to an attempt to take the prison
er from the guard of a few policemen
who accompany him to and from the
iall after the reception of the disagree
ing report of the jury, which was ex-
pected tonight. The Jail is located
about four hundred yards from the Court
House, and the avenue leading to it runs
through a park and is lined Oh each side
with rows OF trees. 1t is reported that
the Jury stood nine for conviction and
three for acquittal. which is probably
authentic.
1t has been ascertained that General
Grant has virtually been responsible
for the delay in the Issue of the order
removing Sheridan, as he has objected
to the transfer of officers of the rank
required by che reconstruction acts from
the duties in which they are now en-
gagged, on the ground that the expedi-
encp of the public service demands that
they shall be retained in their position.
1t is certain that numerous appeals from
the Presidents friends, advising him
not to remove Sheridan, have had some
effect and it is probable that the order
may be further delayed, but it is as
serted by those who should know that
il will he issued before the 18TH inst.

Suffrage.

The Missouri Senate has voted by large
majority to strike the word - white - out
of the constitution of that state. The Ohio
legislature, strongly Republican, has on the
other hand refused to inaugurate an amend
ment to the same effect in the constitution of
that state. The Republican majority there
seem to think that equal rights may be good
doctrine for Tennessee and the states further
south, but-as Nasty said in one of his let
ters.-'' they are not edicated up to the
point of voting it in Ohio. This action of
the Ohio Legislature is simply disgraceful. 1t
was reproach enough when a few Republicans
joined the Democrats in the close state of
Connecticut, and defeated the colored suffrage
amendment in that state ; but with major
ity of two-thirds or more, as the Republicans
have in the Ohio Legislature, such recreancy
to the distinctive principle of Republican
sm.-equal rights for all-deseryes the Sc
'erest and sharpest censure.

THE NEXT CoNunEss:

The new members are all coming in, and
business will sbsgins next week as If No
change had taken place. It is a matter Of
rejoicing that the next Congress is still more
able and better balanced than the present.
The Thirty-ninth Congress had great work
to perform,-the settling the political status
of the country-nobly has it done it. The
next Congress is to settle the financial and
other questions of no less importance. The
changes certainly very fortunate. and
will greatly assist in gaining firm position
for us on these questions. Mr.. Morrill, and
MIR. Cdnkling will give a healthy tone to the
financial measures of the Senate, which in
truth is very much needed The House. in
turn, even while giving up these superior
men, will lose many of its excrescences and
gain in their places good, sound reliable men.
We may safely expect great things from the
next Congress, and if they should even have
the addition of several Southern men, we
shall expect to no less radical BODY than
that which is now about to be dissolved Of
course, | am always supposing that the six
states yet to elect do their full duty and
send us good men. IF they fail, we certain
ly can expect nothing better of the Southern
States. Things now look more hopeful than
they have for a long time, and peace really
seems to loom up quite near, and lasting
peace too, founded on justice and equal
rights. Happy will be the day that sees this
peace established |: and the glorious Republ- !
can party, so long abused will receive the |
blessings Of thirty millions of citizens re-
oicing in its irmness, wisdom and unswerv-
ing course towards . equal and exact justice
10 all men,"
Then will its work be well done. and. every
;estige of slavery and oppression being ex-
met, we cannot regret its dissolution, to al
ow other questions to draw the rartv lines
