Now Method of Preserving Fruit.

A new method of preserving fruit is practised in England. Fears, app.es aud other fruits are reduced to a paste, when it is pressed inio cakes an i gently dried. W hen requi ed for use it is only necessary to pour i>oioug water over them, allow th into soak lor twenty minutes and then add sugar to suit tne taste. T..e fine flavor of the fruit is said to be retained to perfection. The cost of the prepared product is scarcely greater tuun that of the original fi uit, differing with the supply aud price of the latter; the keeping qualities are exet lient, so that it may te had at any time of the yea , and bears long sea voyages without detriment. No peelim* - or coring is required, so there is no waste.
