ounces of salt petre, and eight pounds
of rock salt--and three gallons of water,
and boil the ingredients over a gentle
fire, skimming off the froth or scum as it
rises. Continue the boiling till the salt,
&c. is dissolved. Have the hams, nice
ly cut up and trimmed, packed in the
casks with the shank end down, as the
pickle will strike in better. When the
pickle prepared as above is sufficiently
cool. pour it over the hams. They may
lie in pickle from two to six weeks,
according to the size of the pieces or the
state of the weather. Beef or mutton
hams, intended for smoking and drying
may be cured according to this mode,
and will be found excellent. Much of
the goodness of hams depend on smok-
ing. They should be hung up with the
shank end downward, as this will pre-
vent the escape of their juices by drip
ping. Small hams, wanted for immedi-
ate use, will answer with two weeks
smoking; but larger ones, and those
wanted for keeping, should be smoked
four weeks or more,
Different articles are used for smok-
ing. Perhaps saw dust from hard wood
where it can be conveniently had, is, or
the whole, TO be preferred. Corn-Cobs
are first rate, and are said by some, tC
make the sweetest" smoke of any
thing. Chips of maple and hickory, o.
small twigs and branches of those kinds
of wood, do well.

Election Of CensOrs.

The time is at hand for the election OF Coun-
ell Of Censors, to revise the Constitution Of the
State, and the Wings have candidates nominated
whom il Is their duty to support. There are nsi-
mcrous, and some RADICAL changes contemplated
and required 10 the Constitution, and il is I'M
portant that the Ccnsors be men of intelligence,
and have the confidence of the people. We
trust the Wings Of this county, acting from prin-
cipc, will not need the excitement of politics to
bring them to the polls but will be careful to
deposit their votes, in the exercise Of their fran.
elise and duty as frccmen. 1t is time the Wing
County Committee took some action, to see that
the towns arc furnished with tickets.
The w. c. Democrat Of March /. in order to
induce Wings 10 vote the Locofoco ticket ior
Censors, discoursed us follows:
aCouScIL or CESsoRs.--We would call tho at
tention Of our readers TO the fact that the Whigs
have issued strictly pariizan ticket for Council Of
Censors--a body which should be entirely free from
party influences; willie the Democrats have adopted
a ticket made up Of the best without reference
to their politics. and in which all parties are flir
represented This simple fact, If duly weighed, will
have the effect TO secure 10 the Peoples tckct the
vote Of every literal and patriotic ciiizen-ai least
We think il should"
The Woodstock Mercury exposed the shallow
artiGec, and showed that there was but one Wing
(Charles X. Wiams) on the Locofcco ticket
and as lis name heads their ticket, il was prob.
ably put on to secure for II character aud popu.
larity with the people. This is giving the party
which has decided majority in the State, the
exceedingly fair representation Of 0rs Censor
on; Of hiieeni
The Democrat of this week, in answering the
Mercury, with facility aud ease Of arcommo-
dating itself to circumstances, peculiar to itself
forgets that the Censors should be entirely free
from party Influences" and is quite happy &c
know that the names on our ticket which vi
took to be IFAig, are Democratic Next week
we may expect from our neighbor, an exhofta
ton to all the faithful, to support the "Peoyles'
ticket, because it IS made up of good Democrats
The East Bennington Gazette is playing of
upon its readers the same small game. 1t brad,
