,rethod of Curing Prize Ham. /.

The hams of Maryland anG Vir-
ginia have long enjoyed a wide ce-
lebrity. At the last exhibition Of
the Maryland State Agricultural
Society, four premiums were awar-
ded for hams. We are informed by
those who had the opportunity Of
examining them. that they were Of
first rate quality. The following are
the recipes by which the hams were
cured.--American Farmer.
T. E. HAMILTON REcEIPE.-First
Premium. To every 100 pounds
pork take s lbs. of G. A. salt, 2 OF.
saltpetre, 2 lbs. brown sugar, u OF.
of potash, and A gallons of water.
Mix the above, and pour the brine
over the meat, after il has laid in the
tub some two days. Let the hams
remain six weeks in brine, and then
dried several days before smoking.
! have generally mad the meat rubbed
with fine salt when it is packed down.
The meat should be perfectly cool be-
fore packing.
J. GREENS REcEIPE.-Second Pre-
MUM. To 1000 pounds of pork, take
half bushel and half peck Of salt, 3
lbs saltpetre, 3 lbs sugar, and 2 quarts
OF molasses. Mix-rub the bacon
with il well; keep on for three weeks
in all; al the end Of 9 days take out
the hams and put those which are at
the top, at the bottom.
r. BROOKE, JR.'s, REcEIPE.-Third
Premium. One bushel Of fine salt,
half bushel ground alum salt, one
and a hall pound TO thousand lbs
pork, left to lie in pickle four weeks,
hung up and smoked with hickory
wood until the rind become a dark
brown.
C. ID. SLINGLUFF's REcEIPE.-Fourlh
Premium. To 100 lbs green hams take
s lbs G. A. salt, 2 lbs brown sugar or
molasses equivalent, 2 OF saltpetre, 2
OF pearl ashes, gallons water, dissolve
well; skimming off the scum arising on
the surface. Pack the hams compactly
in a tight vessel or cask, rubbing the
feshy part with fine salt-in a day or
two pour the above pickle over the meat,
taking care to keep il covered with
pickle. In four or six weeks according
to the size and weight of the hams,
(thai is to say, the longer period for
heavy hams) hang up to smoke, hook up;
smoking with green hickory wood. /
have put up hams for the last twelve or
fifteen years by the above recipe with
uniform success, equal at all times to
the sample now presented.

From the EkIo Gsrnnde.

THE REVOLUTION IN Mexico. The
steamship Fanny arrived al New
Orleans on the 2lst inst, with intel
ligence from Brownsville to the 10th
inst. The Fanny's report says that
Col. Carabajal, the leader Of the rev.
oluiionary forces, was within two
miles Of Matamoras on the 10TH
He was at the head oil eleven hun
dred men, and it was thought that he
would attack the city that night, or
early on the morning of the l7lh.-
Among his followers are four hun
dred Indians. Capt. Ford with his
company of rangers. recently dis
charged from the U. S. service, have
Joined Carabajal. Capt. Ford has
received the command of a lieuten-
ant colonel. A few oil the Ameri-
can troops deserted their post at Fort
Ringgold, and joined the revolution
ary forces. The citizens Of Browns
vile confidently expected the success
OF Carabalal.
A letter is published in the Rio
Bravo from General Arista, Presi-
dent OF Mexico, 10 Gen. Avalos,
commanding at Matamoras, which
had been intercepted by Carabajal.
He announces that the Government
had ordered troops to march to the
relief Of Matamoras, and exhorts
Avalos TO use all the means in his
power 10 put down the insurrection.
Among The troops were 200 Semi
mole Indians. Ii is evident from this
that Gen Arista has had no part in
getting up the revolution, and that
instead Of heading it, as reported, he
is determined 10 adopt desperate
measures for its suppression. The
Rio Bravo denoUnces him in no meas
ured terms for his project Of employ
ing the Seminoles to war against
the whites.

THE ANNIHILAToR.-We clip the
following from the New York Dem,
Ocrat. 1t looks like putting an "ex.
tinguisher" on "the great discovery
of the age:"
We learn that the building at the
Novelty Works, where large num-
bers Of the so called "Fire Annihi-
Iaiors" are in progress Of construc-
ton, took fire on Thursday afternoon.
and in spite OF all the "annihilating"
gas contained in the composition Of
the "bricks"-the efforts Of the work
men, and full streams from the de-
livery pipes OF several "Fire Annihi-
lator Cans" together with the exer-
tions Of the Fire Department, the
building and contents were nearly
consumed.

LADIES BKwAREI-A few nights
ago a large silk establishment in New
York was robbed of $1,000 worth Of
rich goods. The N. Y. correspon-
dent Of the National EnteQigeReerr
after noticing the fact says:
The thieves, or their accomplices,
will probably be peddling the silk
bye-and-by in the neighboring towns.
People are too often glad enough to
buy OF them because they gel the
goods at llals their value. A case
came to my knowledge day or two-
ago in which a purchaser Of goods
believed to be stolen was property
punished. A lady residing not many
miles from the Astor House was CAL
led upon by female itinerant and
shown beautiful piece Of watered
satin vesting, sufficient for dFesss
and purporting to be worth three
dollars per yard. She had Just arri-
we'd she said from England, and had
brought this satin along, and, being,
in want, she would sell it for twenty
dollars, and take one fourth pay in
cash and the res; in infant clothing.
as she had babe in pressing need Of
something to wear. Suspicion Of the
pedlar'S honesty must have flashed
upon the lady's mind, but as she was
willing TO pay for secondhand chill
dren's clothing about double what
i; was worth, the dicker was compile
ted, and the 'emigrant' went on her
way rejoicing, leaving the purchaser
in precious state Of excitement at
her bargain:-Tbe 'nub Of the joke
is that the satin proved to be half
cotton and not worth half what the
dupe paid for il. am informed that
this counterfeit satin is manufactured
in or near this city, and is palmed of
by such tricksters as genuine arti-
Gle. Another description Of false
goods is an imitation Of raw silk
Some Of the silk plaids' are Of this
kind. ] mention this for the benefit
of your lady readers.

The synod OF Ohio.

At the time OF our issue OF last
week this body had just commenced
its sessions in this place. This Sy-
nod we learn, does not embrace the
whole State OF Ohio, as the name
might indicate, but only about one
third OF it; and as this place is one.
Of the most southern points in the
Synod, but very few Of the northern
members were present. The whole
number of Ministers and licenciates.
belonging 10 the Synod exceeds ono
hundred, and the number Of churches
is over $50. The number Of Minis
tiers and Elders in attendance was
between forty and fifty, being thus
less than one-half Of those regularly
composing this body. The meetings:
commenced on Thursday evening
Of last week, and continued until
Monday evening Of this week. A
great variety Of business was trans
acted pertaining 10 the interests Of
the churches under the care OF the
Synod. Among the most important
transactions, was the presentation Of
the causes OF Education and of Do
mesti1 and Foreign Missions by the
Agents OF the Boards having those
interests in charge, and the action
taken by the Synod 10 secure more
general and larger contributions
from their churches towards those
and other objects Of benevolence.
The Rev. Henry r. Wilson,
returned Missionary from India
made most powerful and affecting
appeal 10 the Synod on Saturday
morning, and to the congregation on
Saturday evening on behalf Of For
eign Missions. There was public
worship every evening, and the
Lords Supper was administered on
the Sabbath. The sermons preached
were able and instructive. The
deliberations Of the body were con-
Quoted for the most part in a spirit
Of harmony; and only on a single
subject did there seem to be any
important diversity OF sentiment
among the members.
At The close OF the sessions reso-
luton was passed rendering the
thanks OF the Synod to the citizens
OF this place, for their kindness and
hospitality to the members during
their sojourn here. The Synod then
adjourned to meet in Newark on the
third Thursday Of October, 1852.

The subjoined news was furnished
10 the Journal du Havre BY the 81
rene, Capt. Andoire, which LETT
Montevideo on the 10Th Of August.
II the news be true, the present cen.
tury is stained with deed OF blood
transcending in barbarity anything
we remember to have read iI the
darkest and most brutal times. The
facts detailed are as follows:
On the Ist OF August the National
Guard OF Colonia had veutured TO
mention their satisfaction at the de-
parture Of the troops Of the Garrison,
commanded BY Lieut.. General Mo
reno. At the same time they took
little pains to conceal the fact that
the entrance OF Generals Urquiza and
Carzon into the Oriental territory
was not dispIeasing TO them. Obser-
wing these symptoms Of the tenden-
~ of public opinion, the police
agents of Oribe hastened TO inform
Moreno, who was then encamped
six leagues from Colonia. As soon
as this officer had examined the re-
ports of his spies, he returned with
all speed to Colonia, bringing with
him about four hundred men and two
hundred horses, entered the town
and gave the signal for general
massacre; mems suspected" chill
dren, fell under the knives OF the cut
throats. Moreno, 10 excite by his
example the fury Of these assassins,
with his own hands cut the throat
of a young man named Napoleon
Neyes.
Fearful incidents marked the pro-
gress OF this scene Of carnage
These executioners, infuriated against
their victims, were seen TO mutilate
them, TO rob the corpses Of their jew
elrv and earrings, and, not satisfied
with cutting off their fingers and
noses, to cut up their skin into strips
to make ropes for their cart harness.
The refinement OF cruelty which
cannibals infict upon their prisoners
has been fairly surpassed by lieu
tenant Of Oribe.
| 1t is beyond a doubt that among
the victims, the precise number o.
| whom had not been ascertained al
the departure OF the last letters, was
Frenchman, who had been long
time established in Colonia, where he
executed Daguerreotype portraits,
and who had always kept himself
aloof from the political affairs OF the
country. This unhappy man has
heen baselv murdered. Al the mo-
ment when the cut throats Of More
no entered Colonia he was enjoying
the amusement of fishing. Two ol
the wretcheS were expressly detach'
ed from the troop to put an end ia
him, and few moments aiterward
his mulilated corpse was stretched
upon the shore. .

VIRGINIA ELEcTIoN.-The returns
of the election come in slowly, but
sufficient has been received TO show
thai the next Congress will stand
politically, the same as the last Con-
gress-thirteen democrats and two
wings. The democrats gain one
member in the 18th district, and lose
one in the 10Th district. In the 5th
district it was supposed that William
L. Goggin, whig. was elected over
Powell, dem., but later returns show
that Powell is reelected by about
l40. The Legislature is strongly
democratic; and the New Constitu
ton is adopted almost without apPo'
