~In another column will be found
the announcement of St. Clair Kelly,
Esq, as an independent candidate for
Common Pleas Judge. We insert this
as we do any other advertisement for
pay. but we will say to our neighbor he
might as well save his money, for Cham
bers will be elected by over two thou
sand majority.-St. Clairsrille Gazette.
Mr.. KELLY's advertisement will be
found in this issue Of the SPIRIT. The
Radical managers in Monroe stand for
the pay. Mr.. KELLY is confirmed Rad
ical, and expects by this Independent
dodge to secure few Democratic votes.
The fraud is too transparent to win a
single vote outside of the Radical party.
There is another little trick connected
with this Independent dodge that thaRad-
icals expect to gain few votes by; and
that is to have KELLY's name printed on
the Democratic ticket instead of CHAM
BERs'. That trick was tried in 1866, when
KENNoN and CowEN ran, but flashed in the
pan. All the Democratic tickets printed
at this office will have ROBERT E. CHAM
BERs, for Judge, on them.

majority of 1000 votes. Belmonters, do

such knowledge will not be to you of untold

Picking CGcumbers.,

The following recipes from an ex-
change are seasonable, and appear prac-
tical:, =
No. l. Take cucumbers, wipe them
clean, and lay them into stone jars. AL
low one quart of coarse salt to pail of
water; boil the salt and water tillthe salt
is dissolved; turn it boiling hot on the
cucumbers; cover them up tight and let
them stand for twenty-four hours; turn
them into basket to drain; boil as much
cider vinegar as will cover the cucum-
bers wash out the jars and put the cucum-
bers into them; turn the vinegar on boil
ing hot; cover them with cabbage leaves
and cover them tight In forty-eight
hours they will be fit for use.
No. 2. Pick cucumhers each morning,
let them stand in weak brine three or four
days, putting in mustard pods and horse
radish leaves to keep them green. Then
take out and drain, covering with vinegar
for week; at which time take out and
drain again, putting in new vinegar, add
ing mustard seed, ginger roo, ,cloves,pep-
per and red pepper pods, of each about
one or two ounces, to suit different tastes,
for each barrel.
The vinegar must be changed once, as
the large amount of water in the cucum.
ber reduces the vinegar SO much that this
change is absolutely necessary, and il
they should seem TO lose their sharp taste
again, just add little molasses or spirit
and all will be right.
