CURING HAMS.

In the last Patent 0fie Report, Mr.,
Jas, Campbell, of Weston, New Jersey,
gives the following as a superior process
for curing hams ;
The best method | have found for curing
hams is, after the hams have been cut, lei
them lie out on a shelf, where they can
have plenty Of cool air, so that the animal
hca, is entirely out of them before you
attempt 10 put them down in salt then
corn them down for two or three days;
after which drain off any bloody wafer
which may come out, and then make the
following pickle, sufficient 10 cover them.
Take nine pounds of salt, three ounces Of
sallpetre, one n of salaratus, four
pounds Of brown sugar or molasses, and
six gallons Of water. Let them lie in tie
above pickle from three TO six weeks, &C.
cording 10 the size Of The hams, when you
may take them out and smoke them with
good hickory or apple wood until sufficient
10 suit your taste. They should be taken
down and hung up in a dry place 10 pro-
tecl them from the flies.
| have hams cured after the above
method, which wure almost as fine when
eighteen months old as when taken from
the smokehouse. And while upon The sub
ject of hams, | would further say that,
when you boil them, they should be boiled
until done, in good soft water and when
nearly done, throw in a handful Of clean
timothy hay /; it absorbs all impurities
that may be around The outside of the
ham. As soon as done, take out the hay
but leave the ham in the wafer until near
y cold, when YOU may take il Oul.

WooDwoRrH AND GOODYEAR PATENT
ExrENsIoN.-ln the Ielegraphic reports cf
New York daily papers of the 2lsl, we
find tie following statement:-
"'The agents Of Messrs. Woojworlh's
and Goodyear's patents are preparing 10
extend their business, by special act Of
Congress. There are. however, a mum.
Der Of opponents very active against
them"
This fully confirms the truth of our
statement made in No. 10, in respect 10
these patents, and il should act as a pow.
erful stimulus, upon all those who, from
principle, are opposed, to these extensions.
Our position is well understood by the
readers Of the " Scientific american"
but we notice with regret that some of our
most able and trusly co. operators last year,
are now either dumb or are avowedly
friends 10 the Woodward Extension
scheme. There is danger,-let all those
who feel upon this subject, be active in
their efforts TO bring public opinion TO bear
upon Members Of Congress.
We have not farlhing's interest in the
matter, il cannot effect US for good or evil,
but a host Of inventors, manufacturers, and
mechanics, are liable 10 sustain immense
injury thereby, therefore they should OF
ganize in one determined effort 10 thwart
the movements Of these schemers, and
spectators. In volume seven we devoted
column after coluna to the discussion Of
this subject, aud have presented every ar.
gumen, which we deemed important, to
effect the objec. in view.
Our readers who are specially interest.
ed cannot expec, Us 10 devote much more
space 10 lis consideration. therefore we
shall, in future, briefly allude 10 the efforts
Of the schemers, without entering upon
lengthy discussions Of The merits Of the
case, which are bad enough 10 insure is
defeat.
We are irrevocabiy opposed to The ex-
tension Of either Of the patents in ques
tion, and are prepared, when our services
are needed, 10 exert what personal inlu-
ence we possess. Some active aad trusty
person should be employed 10 watch the
movements going on in Washington and
export progress ; our daily paper report
{ ers do not feel Interested in ahe matter, and
are therefore not expected 10 keep the
public advised. We recommend our
readers TO read carefully the Report Of the

both Houses, which is intended 10 secure
10 Texas the advantages of the great Pa.

1t directs the Government of the State
10 advertise for proposals, 10 be made up
The LIST of August next, TO build a railway
from a point on the eastern boundary Of
Texas, not north of Fulton in Arkansas,
10 the Rio Grande near FL Paso; the road
to cross the Trinity, Brazos and Colorado
rivers, as near the 32d degree Of north
latitude as practicable, and 10 be built and
equipped in. the most approved manner.
Fifty miles are 10 be finished and in ope-
ration within eighteen months after en-
tering the contract, and one hundred miles
more every year until completed. The
bill grants to the company obtaining the
contract twelve thousand eight hundred
acres for every mile constructed and pu,
into operaiion-the lands TO be surveyed
in sections of six hundred and for,y.seven
acres each ; and the alternate sections TO
belong 10 the State. The lands thus gran.
ted are to be alienated by the company I;
one. fourth in six years, and The remainder
in the next six years.
The acl also provides for The union of
this company with the other companies
which may form the diiferen, links Of the
great railroad. 1t requires a deposit Of
100000 guaranty on the part Of the con
tractors that the terms Of the act shall be
complied with and in case of failure al

tract within the time, and in The manner
