CHEAP SNIT!'.

We have thought• it proper to re,publilt the
following Receipt, which rudy be -considered as
heoevolent contribution of the Gentleman to
whom we are indebted for it, towards the relief of
his suffering fellow-creatures, and who, we are
assured, devoted a great p:►rtiou of his time to
the Composition, in order to resider it agreeable
to the palate 213 well as conducive to health :

" Among the variety of schemes that have been"
suggested for bettering thc condi-ion of the Poor,
a more useful or extensive Chirity cannot be de-
vised, than that of instructing them in Economi-
cal Cookery.
The best and cheapest method of mr.kiog a
noutishing Soup—is :east litir!,,vo to those who
have most need of it—it will enable those who
have small incomes and large families--no make
the most of whatever they possess without pinch,
ing their children of that v.-holt-some notilishrot-nt
which is 'necessary, for the purpose of reaming
them up to inatmity in health and sareng.h.
The labouring classes seldom purchase what are
called the coarser pieces of meat, because they do
not know how to dress them, trot lay out their
motley in pieces for roasting, &c., of \lbid. the
bones, &c. enhance the price of the actual meat
to nearly a shilling per pound. This, for the sake
of saving time, trouble, and fire, is generally sent
to an oven to be Iniket4, the nourishing parts are
evaporated and dried up, and ail that a poor man
can afford to purchase with his week's earnings,
perhaps does not half satisfy the appetites of nim-
self and lamily for a coupe of days. It .a hard-
working man cannot get a comfortable meal at
home, he soon finds the way to the public-house,
the woman contents herself with tea and bread
and butter, and the children are little better than
starved,

The following Receipt how to make a cheap,
nutritive, and palateable Soup, fully adequate to
satisfy appetite, and support strength, will open a
new source to those benevolent bousekeepets,
who are disposed to relieve the Poor, and will
slew the industrious classes how much they have
it in their power to assist themselves, and rescue
them from being objects of Charity dependent on
the precations bounty of others, by teaching them
how they may obtain a comparatively cheap,
abundant, salubrious, and agreeable aliment for
themselves and families for FIVB PENCE PER
Gat-LoN—(for various " Economical flans for
Domestic Comfort," see The Cook's Oracle )

Distributing Soup does not answer halt so well
as teaching People how in wake it, and improve
their comfort at home, as the time lost in waiiing
at the Soup House is seldom less than three hours ;
iu which rime, by any industrious occupiiion,
however poorly paid, they could earn more money,
than the quart of Soup is worth.

RECEIPT TO MAKE A GALLON OF BARLEY SOUP.

Put four ounces of Scotch barley (previously
washed in cold water) and tour ounces of shced
onions, into five quarts of water ; boil gently for
one hour, and pour it into a pan., and then put
into the saucepan two ounces of clean beef or
Mutton drippings, or melted suet, or three ounces
of fat bacon minced; when nicked stir into it font-
ounces of ()Anneal., rub these together till you
make a paste (it this be properly managed, the
whole of the fat will combine with the barley
broth, and not a particle appear on the surface to
offend the must delicate stomach,) now add the
Marley broth, at first a spoonful at a time, and
then the rest, stirring it Well iogether till it hods.
Then, to season it, pat a drachm of bruised cdery
seed, and a quarter of a drachm of Cayenne, or a
drachm 2,m1 a half 'of ground black pepper or all-
spice, into a tea cup, and mix it up with a little
of the soup, and then pour it into the rest, stir it
thoroughly together, and Jet; it boil a quarter of
an hour longer, and it is teady.
it will be much imptored, if irivead of water,
it he made with the liquor meat has been boiled
in; at tripe, cow-heel., and cook-shops, this may be
haul for little or nothing.

This Soup has the-advantage of being► very
easily and very soon made, with no more fuel than
is necessary to warm a room—and those who have
not tasted it, cannot imagine what, a savoury
and satisfying meal is produced by the combi-
nation of these cheap and homely ingredients.-
11 the generally received opinion be true, that
animal and vegetable foods afford nourishment in
propor►ion to the quantity of oil, jelly, and
mucilage that can be extracted from them, this
Soup has strong claims to the attention of Ra-
tional Economists."

*** We have partaken of this Soup, and found
it to be pleasant, nutritious, and fit for any table.
