HOW TO CUT AND CURE MEATS.

SPICED CORNED BEEF-To ten pounds
of beef, take two cups salt, two cups mo-
lasses, two tablespoons saltpeter, one ta-
ble-spoon ground pepper, one tablespoon
cloves; rub well into the beef, turn every
day and rub the mixture in will be ready
for use in ten days.
PICKLED TONGUE.-For one dozen
tongues make strong brine sufficient TO
cover, add one teaspoon pulverized salt
peter and half pound sugar, keep weight
ON them so that they may be covered with
brine. Let them remain two weeks, then
hang up to dry or smoke if you like.
CoRNED BEEF. Makes brine as follows
To one hundred pounds of beef take four
gallons of water, six pounds of salt, two
of sugar, halt pound soda, two ounces
saltpeter, and six red peppers let come
to boil, skim. and set away to cool
Pack meat in wooden vessel or large
stone jug, and when the brine is cold, pour
over it, and put weight on to keep it
under the brine. This is also IN excellent
recipe for curing beef to dry.
\ New WAY To SMOKE HAMs.-Smoke
the barrel, in which the hams are to be
picked, by inverting it over Il kettle con-
tanning n slow fire of hard wood, for eight
from shrinking y in this barrel pack the
hams, and pour over them, after it has
cooled, brine made in the proportion of
four gallons of water. eight pounds of salt.
five pints of molasses, and four ounces
manner. They will be cured in eight or
nine days, and they may be kept in the
| pickle for year without damage.
To CURE IIAMs.-For every ham, half
pound each of salt and brown sugar,
half an ounce each OF cayenne pepper, all
spice, and saltpeter; mix and rub well
over the hams, laying them in the barrel
they are to be kept in with the skin side
down; let them remain II week; make q
pickle of water and salt strong enough to
bear an egg, add to it half Il pound of SUI
gar pour over the hams till they are
thoroughly covered. let them remain four
weeks, take out and hang up to dry for at
least a week before smoking: smoke with
corn-eobs or hickory chips. An old but
good way.
To SALT HAMs.-Take barrel (hick-
DRY is best) place in it layer of meat,
then layer of salt. and SO on, until bar
rel is full and meat well covered with salt
After five or six weeks, take out meat, and
| II not salt enough, fepack In a less amount
of salt than was at first used. Take out
again, and smoke over hickory chips and
chunks eight or ten days, and then hang
up until used. Some put hams thus
smoked and cured into paper sacks when
this is done watch closely to prevent mold.
Others pack them away in oats or in ashes,
or rub them with black pepper coarsely

And if you struggle complain,
He calls police with club and chan,-
This drunken, noisy wretch,' he cries,
"NIy peace disturbs. my patience tries:
A quiet house is my delight,
hate brawing blatherskite;
This drunken nuisance please rnmove,
And your efficient service prove
Good sirs, why do you stop and stare,
As if the thing not all fairs
Within the letter of the law,
Let all good people stand in awe;
Ny license fee, I've paid the State,
have the parchment, day and date;
What have done, the law allows,
And We can have drunken rows,
And your assistance demand
Come gentlemen, please bear II hand"
This victim without more ado,
The meshes of the law goes through;
night in the cold lookup cell,
OF misplaced confidence could tell,
How dear some people wisdom buy,
Who, guileless, trust the specious lie.
Next morning with a motley crowd,
No longer gay, no longer proud
Our proiigal adorns the dock!
How does he meet the trying shock?
Al. not without sense of shame,
He then and there denes his name;
The mans bruised face and muddy clothes,
The secrets of his case disclose;
But one thing makes the matter worse,
His fingers clutch empty purse.
"Drunken disturber of the peace
On oath depose, watch and police.
The Judge, with justice in his eyes,
The culprits plea for grace denies,
And thus the statute law applies -:
".Iudgment-ien dollars fine and cost;
In lieu, three month, among the lost!
That means a quarter in the Jail,
Save friend or stranger 90 his bail.
The real criminal IL still at large,
Preparing paupers for the public charge,
overtnrning the work of church and school,
That ignorance and vice may have the rule
Whettng the knife with which the murderer kills,
His evil hand. your jails and prisons fills
And his accursed licensed liquor sales
Call for more asyluns and larger jails;
Cannot all see that such wicked course
Poisons the public fountains at their source?
No, avorice and appetite are stone blind;
And neither can the path of wisdom find
They dug the grave where sodom sunk SO low,
Their footsteps lead where death and ruin go.
Let tools and knayes insist that black is white,
That statute laws make the wrong the right.
Know ye that State is rotten 10 The core,
That takes a fee for crime, little or more
GEO. W. WHITE.
