statement that he has been summoned be-.

his readiness to appear before them at any
time. Gen. Catterson, the suspended Uni

one OF the most disastrous fires that has ~.

this State about fifteen year ago. Although
the smoke was more dense than 1t Is now, but
tnere is more fire ronnd us new than then.

Train tthls smorning, slaying iron where the
fire bad warped the rails.
The people are greatly alarmed about the
town for fear that ii will be swept away. The
town lies north and south on the west bank of
the Cass river, aud the wind Is about south
west, blowing gale. The men are nearly tir-
ed and almost blinded with smoke an trying to
beat the fire back.
The narrow escapes from being burnt to
death are many. An old lady By the name OF
Mrs. Delmarter was led through the Town
having lost her eyesight by the fire and the
smoke. An old gentleman was being led by
boy. Mauy such cases could be mentioEed.
People living off in the woods have not only
lost their houses and barnes but their all. I

The smoke is dense, aud the cinders are flying
in every direction. Women and children are
crying and the inha abitants of the town are set
up tonight, ready for any emergency waich

Navigation has been stopped from Detroit to

This has been one of the darkest aud most
gloomy days your correspondent has ever ex-
perienced. 1t seemed as If the whole earth
and heavens were on fire. IL has been very
dark and yellow. The sun has been obscured
about all day, part OF time it looked he ball

In regard to the best way OF preparing them

quantity and cover them with water. | then
take out with knife the decayed portion.
and remove each apple as prepared to another
vessel. IL they are very poor wash them
again. when all are done wipe them or
not, and peel as usual. One reason tor wash

OF the decay imparts an unpleasant flavor 10
