to be . superior article for curing beef for
winter use:
First, rub salt into it and let i. remain
for ,vepty-four hours to draw Oft the
blood; then take it up, let it drain and
pack a, desired, having ready pickle
prepared as follows: For every one hum
dred lbs. of beef, use seven lbs. salt, one
ounce saItpetre, one ounce Cayenne pepper,
one quart molssses, and eight gallons
water put these all together, boil and
skim and let it cool; then pour it on your
beef. Itis supposed this amount of water
will make brine enough to cover the beef.

Like the grand, unburied glory,
Heroes of our Summer story,

Now Nations hearts are doating
On the tale-apd eyes are noting
All her banners halemast floating.
Long fiInerell lines are meeting,
And funerell drums are beating,
Where the toeman locked their greeting.
And the Nations mourners sean her,
Raising now the starry banner,
Ger her grand funereal manor.
Der the manor, where tn invader,
Far in reeking burrows, laid her
Children, who 50 well obeyed her.
Scattered mourners, dry your weeping,
For Nations heart is keeping
Vigil, where your loves are sleeping.

On each mound a lOttier lay is

For their choral hymn hath waited
Till the soil, by Freedom fated,

Profitable Investments.

Profitable Investments.
The Philadelphia North 4merican give:
some excellent advice TO those who wish
to invest. Though money has been tenn.
porarily scarce, capital continues abundant;
aud the recent tumble in the stock mark.
ct has brought capitalists to q realizing
sense of the unreliable character of many
of the securities dealt in. Its greatly to
the credit of the Government, that its
loans, of all the securities daily dealt in
on the market, have maintained their in
tegrity Of price almost better than anything
else. And (wbat is not the least CRAFTY
ing fact, in connection with the daily large
subscriptions to this popular loan y scarce
ly any of it is returned to the market for
sale. 1t is taken for investment, and is
held with uufalieriDg confidence in its
reliability. And why should it not be !!
1t is seen that the Government, after two
years Of the most gigantic war that the
world has ever known, experiences no
difficulty in commanding the necessary
means to prosscuteit, or in paying regular
ly the interest in gold as it falls due. If
this can be done while the war is being
Waged, who can anticipate any difficulty IN
readily accomplishing it when the war
shall be ended? What better investment
then, for capital, than the give Twenty"
Government loan? But if any doubt, let
him refer to the statistics furnished BY
the census tables of the various Iations OF
the world. For instance, Great Britain,
France and the Netherlands will undoubt-
edly be conceded to represent the highest
prosperity that has been attained BY any
Of the European nations. Aud yet no
nations have been called upon to endure
ferccr or more prolonged wars, domestic
or foreign, than they The effect has been,
urques,ionably, to incur an enormous ma
ticnal Indebtedness but neither their
wars nor their Indebtedness have had the
effect to destroy their elasticity, nor to
check the progress of their general pros
perity. Those nations, while undergoing
the trials of war, were oppressed by the
evils of an immense exodus of their peo-
ple, caused BY the deusty of their popu-
latiou, the impossibiIi'y to provide occu-
patton for them, the low price of labor, and
the scarcity Of territory. Compared with
our country, they possessed slight room
for future development they we're settled
in every part, and ro vast territory lay
invi,ingly open to encourage enterprise
and settlement. Their great problem has
ever been what to do with their surplus
population, which, in its turn, has sought
new fields for adventure and self support
In countries like our own, where an illim
table territory waits to be developed, and
where iucalculable resources invite indus
try and energy. The encouragement, to
be derived from these facts and compsri
sons of circumstances, is very great, and
to the mind of any dispassionate reasoner
is conclusive that the course of this grea
country is onward and upward, and tha
its CT di, will live unimpaired to the end
1.-THE United States security be not good
no security citlin our Government can b
good. If that jaIs, all paper money i

We're it not truly serious matter, would
like very much to poke little fun at our

these times it is very dangerous experiment
to mix up democracy or any other political
power, the way the copper-heads" are mix
ing it at Springfield. If men cannot be true
to their political attachments and at the same
time take musket, If necessary, and march
with our army against the battements OF trea-
son, or give their purse strings to the sol
diers, or make any sacrifice that the govern
meut may demand Of them, to put down the
rebel army, then they had better at once for

hooks of steel. No Christian can serve God
and Mammon. No American can serve party
and country Rebels are rebels all over, and
patriots must be patriots all over. A " cop
per-head' father, a charcoal mother and
snow-hake' children could never settle
family difficulty, neither can the same politi-
cal relatives ad Just a national quarrel, like the
one we now have on hand

the army or the people; for opinions, no mat

better than rebel bullets. They both weaken
the army and strengthen the enemy, and the
less said outside the camp about this war, the
sooner will the backbone Of treason be brok-
en-. Men who give the people ne'os. in the
shape of long-winded editorials about party,
or about men in the army for party purposes,
are not the men upon whom the army or the
government lean for support. Could we Mt

Webster, Clay, Wright or Douglas, they
would be like batteries Of heavy ordnance in
