Sailing MEAT.

We know Of no meat that is more improved by
proper sailing than beet any that is more in
jured by iniudicious sailing. The common method
of loading it with large quantity of salt, adding
few ounces of salt petre, line beef to be hard
and dry and destitute of any Havor.-But there are
methods which prevent these evil effects and cause
meat to be juicy, tender and of rich flavor. Per-
|haps method which secures these benefits IN as
cheap way as any, is the following, viz
"For barrel Of beef take four quarts OF COM
mon salt and pound it fine, also eight ounces OF salt
petre well pounded, and five pounds brown sugar.
Rub the pieces Of beef with the salt, then pack it
close, sprinklng The sugar and salt petre between
the layers. No water will be needed, if the meat
be we'll packed the juice will form sufficient brine to
cover it. In the spring the brine will need boiling,
and three or four quarts of salt should be added"
| 1t will readily be discovered that the method here
Recommended is not expensive IN materials nor Ia
Dor And we can assure readers that its utility
has been proved by many years experience.

A WOMAN'S FAREWELL.

By alaric a. IVatts.
Fare thee we'll IT'S meet we part,
Since other ties and hopes are thine:
Pride that can nerve the lowiest heart,
Will surely strengthen mine!
Yes, will wipe my tears away,
Repress each struggling sigh,
Call back the thoughts thou led's. astray,
Then lay me down and die
Fare thee we'll! I'll not upbrai1
Thy fckeness or falsehood now:
Can the wild taunts of love betrayed
Repair one broken vowP
But if reproach may wake regret,
In one so false OF weak.
Think what / ,ras--when first we met,
And read it on my check
Fare thee well On yonder tree
One leaf is huttering in the blast,
Withered and sere--a type of fine
For shall fade as fast
Whilst many refuge still hast thou,
Thy wandering heart to save
From the keen pangs that wing mine nov
have but one-the grave!

THE Blended Bow-Br Mns. HrmAss.

1t is supposed that War anciently proclaimed in B
lin, by sending messengers IN different directions throut
land, each bearing bent bow, and that Peace was
Ike manner announced by bow unstrung, and thereto
raight. See Canbrian Antiquities
There was heard the sound of a coming foe,
There was sent through Britain Bonded bow,
And voice was pourd on the free winds tar,
AS the land rose up at the sign OF war
"Heard We not the battlefront
-Reaper leave thy golden corn,
Leave il for the birds of Heaven,
Swords must flash and shields be rven
Leave it for the winds to she'd
Arm ere Britain's turf grow redn
And the reaper arm'd like freeman's son.
And the Bonded bow and the voice passd on
&C. Hunter leave the mountain chase,
Take the falcbion from its place
Let the wolf go free to-day,
Leave him for nobler prey!
Let the deer ungall'd sweep by
Arm thee! Britains foes nigh"
And the hunter arm'd ere his chase was done,
And the Bonded bow and the voice passd on.
"Cheftain quit the joyous feast
Stay not till the song hath ceased.
Though the mead be foaming bright,
Though the fires give ruddy light,
Leave the hearth, and leave the hall
Arm thee l,ritan's foes must fall.
And the cheftain armd, and the horn was blown,
And the Bonded bow and the voice passd on.
ssPrince thy fathers deeds are told,
In the bower and in the hold
Where the goatherds lay rs sung,
Where the mnstrel's harp is strung
Foes are ON the native
Give our bards tale of thee"
And the prince came arm'd, like leaders son,
And the Bonded bow and the voice passd on.
"Mother stay thou not the boy!
He must learn the battles Joy.
Sister bring the sword and spear.
Give thy brother words of cheeri
Maiden! bid thy lover part,
Britain calls the strong in heart !"
And the Bonded bow and the voice passd on,
And The bards made song for battle won.

Potatoes.--" To boil potatoes meay and not
cracked, it has been recommended to assert them
to nearly uniform size, for each boiling; put them
into an uncovered pot, which they must not fill and
then pour cold water, so as only to cover them
When this first water is nearly ready to boil, pour
lit off. and replace it with similar quantity of cold
water sailed rather profusely: which replacing OF
the water has the double effect OF removing The ex-
tracted juices of the potatoes, and to cool their out
sdes whilst their inner parts retain the heat acqu-
red, so that the boiling they are then to undergo

LIFE OF AN EDITOR.

Theu there is another
species correspondents, who, under the
pretsnce OF giving advice, are the most a.
bominable, saucy, and impudent fellows
In the world, and who modestly give their
crude suggestions as infallible axioms,
which youd do not obey you loose their m
OaiHbte friendship and support--thus, one
will, tell yon, ''your paper is insupport-
ably dull. and he can't read it unless it con-
tains an account of all the prize fights
and other occurrences in the sporting.
world" another declares that tsif YOU
pollute your columns with such trash, he
VIII cease to take in your journal" One
correspondent thinks your paper of too
literary a cast, and wishes YOU to give a
little more variety, and now and then to
pop in few remarkable and horrid acci.
dents-or bloody murder" those are
the things" says he, '.to make it sell. -
A second says, that you s'fiil your paper
with collection of stories only fit for old
wonderland begs to have luminous cri-
tlque on the various works oftaste and i'm

says. the paper is ''too dull;" whilst Miss
Prude thinks. ''it has not a sufficiently
serious turn" Miss Languish begs for
ga little more poetry" and hopes, .'you
will let it be all about love-" whilst Farmer
Giles writes to you ''to leave out all that
stuff poeticks, and put in more about the

mental young lady, who signs herself

wishes you ''to. be particular in giving
spirited and copious notices of the dra-
ma" whilst Mr.. Cantwell desires at "his
paper may be discontinued, unless you
omit all mention of such heinous and
abominable proceedings" Thus every
man wishes his own particular taste to
be gratified, without any regard to his
neighbours; and the only way in which
an editor can act, is, to disregard all
such partial solicitations, and to keep
on the even tenor Of his way, without
paving any respect to the confined views
OF his correspondents.
