directions for Packing Dried
SrETit.

Thus far, New York State apples
were most desirable for export to
Europe, from the fact, that they are
carefully prepared for market, and are
generally brought here in good, full
weighing barrels, thereby enabling the
exporter To save freight, and in pro-
portion to pay higher prices for the ar
ticle in our market.
As we have no doubt. that with due
attention Southern apples could also
be made desirable article for export,
we wish to give directions for p.epar-
ing aud pa, king them, so as to come
most faVurab:N unqer exporters notice.
The apples selected for drying. should
be of Il large kind, well cOred and peel
ed, and cut in quarters, and if possible
sun-dIied. If dried on kiln, great care
should be taken in not having them
burnt, as il is chiefly the brightness of
our state apples, which makes them
so very desirable for export. Good,
clean barrels should invariably be Sc
lected for packing. with actual tare
marked on. The extra labor caused
by carefully asserting the different
qualities, will fully be paid by realizing
higher prices for them. The different
qualities of a shipment ought to be
given by distinctive marks or numbers
1st, I'd, 81, DC, quality, or A, b, G. &c, g,
the quality of each mark to be reliably
inform throughout each package, so
that the inspection of one package is
equal TO inspecting a whole line of the
same mark. Barrels to be well packed
and pressed. so rs to contain as near as
possible To 200 lbs. net each, thus Sc
curing lower export freight las the
freight is charged by the barreD and
enabling the exporter to pay higher
prices for the article here proportion
ally.
For Home Consumption n bright
fne-coa amt sfjccd apple is most desira-
ble. and the brightness and outside ap-
pearance influence prompt sale and
at satisfactory figures, we would invite
our friends TO pay all possible atten-
ton to the quality of the fruit, and
style of packing.
The hacking of fruit of all kinds in
barrels is preferable to that in bags,
improving the appearance of the fruit,
and the higher cost of packages will
be countrrhalanced by the higher
price realized over the price of fruit in
bags. Besides. the shrinking and loss
in weight in the course of transporta-
tion, is less OH bbls. than on bags.
On fruit packed in barrels, actual
tarp is allowed, but no charge made for
packages. Fruit packed in bags is
sold gross for net weight-no charge
for bags.
In packing, always keep coarse-ctt,
fae-ciH and sliced apples separate, 50
as TO secure the full market value for
each kind.

It is easier TO be a good business
man than poor one. Half the ener-
gy displayed in Keeping ahead that is
required to catch up when behind,

siness. aud add to the profit and repu-
tation of your work. Honor your en-
gagements. If you promise to meet a

moment, be ready at the appointed
time. If you go out on business, at
tend promptly TO the matter OH hand,
and then as promptly go about your
own business. Do not stop to tell sto-
Ties in business.
If you have place of business, be
found there when wanted. No man
can get rich by sitting around stores

a living, remember that one hour in

History OF TIE great war between France
and Germany Its origin, causes, history,
biography Of Ifs leaders, condition and prepa-
ration of the two countries, battles and re-
suits, by L B. Brockett, NJ. D., Author of
" History of the Civil War in America''--
4" Camp, Battlefield and Hospital ''--Wo
mans Work in the Civil War;" &C., &c.
The NelO York Tribune of AprH 18th
says: In preparing the history of
the Prussian War from its commence
ment to its close, the author of this
volume has not limited himself to a
compilation of events from different
authorities, but has aimed at reproduc-
ing the abundant matter furnished by
eye witnesses at the scene of action in
compact and well digested narrative.
He has made a careful study of the
movements of the two great armies,
and their positions in the principal
battles of the war, and has succeeded
in giving considerable vitality to his
description of the details. A good
deal of valuable information is given
in the preliminary chapters, which
are devoted to an explanation of the
causes of the war, TO the military, ma
val, and financial positions of the two
countries, and to Biographical sketch
es of the prominent military men, and
civilians VINO have figured in the
progress of the contest. No single
volume has been issued since the
breaking out of hostilities which pre-
sents more complete and ineligible
survey of the whole course of the war,
its historical antecedents, its manifold
political relations, and the distinguish
ed personages who have occupied the
foreground of the grand national pic
ture. The interest of the work and
its practical utility, are increased by
the cOpiOus appropriate illustrations
which serve not merely for embcllish-
ment but for information"
The Publishers sag: Where plans of
battles have been found necessary to
proper understanding of the text, they
have been given. That the whole
field of operations may be taken in at
a glance, we have put into the book an
accurate and finely executed map of
Western Europe. The needle gun,
which has formed an important fea-
ture of the war, is shown by dia
gram of twenty parts. The great bat
ties of the war are illustrated by en-
cravings designed by the artist who
witnessed the terrible scenes of blood
and carnage. Besides all these, the
book contains portraits of the leading
men and women of both countries. all
engraved by the best engIaver in New
York. 1t contains tifty-one fire illus
traIions. The work has been written
in the authors finest style, and will be
found equal to any of the popular
books heretofore given to the world by
him.

They have smiled their smiles, they have
wept their tears

And leave them to their long repose.
Speak Of them gently, remember them we'll
Tsey were children Of earth as weare now;
They stroye with temptation--they yielded

Ard anon they conquered as still we do

Speak Of them, think Of them, tenderly,
But few remain; and when they are gone,
We shall I'll the places they now hold;
Oar heads will be frosted. our hosoms lone

And the faltering step and fal;ering

Why should ye yield to their balcful thrall?
Let us clasp hands close as downward we
glide
Into the shadows that wait for us all;
For soon we shall be among the old,
And the days Of our years will soon be
