Sssssesreas of the civil war which IS still

causing not only material damage but
usssr social disorganization is only too

Marty and those spectators Of the

re hopeful Of the issue, and the fact
that the neighboring republic Of
Bolivia has formally recognized the

! belief that the popular side has
sufficient prospects Of ultimate success
to make lis friendship worth securing.
In the meantime, the Provisional
Government representing the Con-
press have issued circular note to
the Powers asking them to recognize
the Junta as a heIIigerent, and to OBJ
serve neutrality in the struggle which
Is now proceeding. Recent despatch-
Is from Valparaiso report a great
naval victory for the insurgents at
Chanaral. The battle was fought
between a Congressional cruiser, the
q Magellanes. and three torpedo
boats belonging to the Presidents
,forces--the Almirante Lynch" the
q Almifante Condell, and the "Sar-
eeanto Aldea." Although the cruiser
was under steam, her maneuyriDg
power was limited by the fact that
she was in the harbor. The torpedo
boats on entering took up positions on
the bows Of he 9 Magellanes,P SO that
her heavy guns we're useless. and she
could oniv bring her forward batteries
and hAf right Hotchkiss gun to bear
on her assailants. The fight is report
ed TO have been fierce one. The
Sargeanto Aldea" was nearly blown
to pieces, but not before she had dis
abled the cruisers forward battery.
A torpedo fred from the Almirante
Lynch" was making for the " Magell-
anes, bow when it was diverted by
the swell caused by q huge cannon
ball, and finally struck a barque
causing her to sink in few minutes.
The .Goyerument vessels were at
length driven Of. They had suffered
heavily, both men and ships the
q Magellanes" had sixty Of her crew
wounded and twenty-five killed; her
forward sgporf battery was badly
damaged, portions Of her gun car
riages were destroyed, and some Of
her rigging was carried away.
The United State cruiser Charles

in reaching Chill in safety notwith

An opinion About cider Making.

An Opinion About Cider Making.
An ohio Correspondent, writing in
The World, expresses the following
opinions about cider making:
"The sooner you get the cider out
of the cheese the better. The oldtime
idea among farmers was that the
cheese should stand over night before
pressing, but they havelearned better"
To the idea conveyed above | desire
to express my dissent. As boy and
man l have helped to make great
deal of cider in my. time, and have
had the acquaintance of many farmers
in district producing great deal of
cider, with opportunities for knowing
their opinions and practices as to the
immediate pressing of the pomace or
otherwise. It certainly was the ''old.
time idea" TO let the newly ground
pomace remain in the receiving box
for from ten to fifteen hours before
pressing out the juice, unless there
were special reasons for hurrying, and
I have yet toilearn that farmers who
make cider in this section have
changed their opinions on the subject.
The liquid when first squeezed out
Of the fruit is simply apple juice, not
cider, 70 which it Is shortly afterwards
changed by exposure to the atmos-
phere. This change is, in my opinion,
best begun by keeping the juice and
the pomace together, as before said,
for some hours before separating them,
and the reason that while in that con
dition the juice acquires from the
crushed pulp of the fruit a body and
favor superior to that of freshly press
ed juice. It is quite generally admit
ted that cider made from apples
ground In small hand mills is inferior
to that made in the larger rural horse
power mills, and | believe the reason
Is that in the case of the former the
juice is generally pressed out immed-
lately, as fast as the apples are ground.
As. in the making of many varieties OF
wine by fermenting the juice and the
pomace together for few days an IN
fusion is derived which serves to give
it desirable special character, so !
believe apple juice by few hours
contact with the pulp Of the fruit,
while exposed to the atmosphere. Will
make better cider as a result OF the
process.

The new Pastor Of the Baptist Church.

The Maysville, KY, "Commonweal
says 1.-The announcement from the pull
pit of the Baptist church in this city last
Sunday, of the resignation of the pastor of
the congregation, Rev. w. J. E. Cox, was
a surprise to the public and has caused a
profound feeling of regret III Maysville. -
1t adds
The departure of Mr. Cox will create void
in this community which is not likely to he
filled He is singularly we'll fitted for chris
tan work in this field. A man OF thorough
.consecratiOn to the cause of his Master, he
brought to the discharge of his duties high
order of ability and an aggressive energy
which made his sphere Of usefulness very
marked one. He is essentially worker, and
his labOrs in this field have been productive
of large and far-reaching measure OF good.
Few men are gifted with SO many of the ele-
mems Of usefulness as is MI. Cox. AS
preacher, pastor, neighbor, friend citizen, he
meets every expectation and requirement.
All the energies OF his heart and mind are
actively enlisted in the cause OF humanity.
and hence the success which has crowned his
labors. Wherever duty may call him be
will take for himself and his excellent wife
the heartiest good wishes of The Common

The following is the resolution adopted
at the meeting of Mr.. Cox's congregation
last Sunday:
NASHVILLE, KY. Nov. 80, 1891.
Whereas, our Pastor, Bro. W. J. E. Cox,
has rendered his resignation to accept a call
to another field.
Therefore, Be it resolved that in accepting
said resignation we do SO with feelings OF sad
ness and sorrow. We regret that duty seems
to call on him to sever the relations which
have so happily existed between us for more
than two years.
God has blessed our church under his pas
torate, and we pray that the Masters cause
may continue to prosper in his new field.
We wish him every success and pray that
the Lord may have him in his tender keeping.
