FAMILY MARKET.
The Finest Exhibit OF the Year 1852
Fruits, Vegetables, Etc.
The market was crowded, yesterday, both
by sellers and buyers, and the exhibit has
not been so fine this year. All kinds of
fruits, except berries, were present in
abundance, and the same may be said OF
vegetables. The melons and peaches will
be on the wane from this time forward, and
prices much higher in consequence. Nege-
tables are exceptionally plentiful and very
good. Tomatoes were cheap and firm. Fol-
lowing is the list OF prices:
MEATs-There is no change in the prices
of fresh meats in this market. Smoked
meats have advanced very materially with
in few days. Ham is now worth 20 cents
by the cut, and IS cents by the whole
ham. Breakfast bacon rules at the same
price.

A lady admirer of the SUNDAY
REGISTER favors its readers with the
following receipt, which she has
thoroughly tested, for
CANNING CORN:
Take nice, tender green corn, cut
from the cob with sharp knife-with
the back of the knife scrape the cob to
get all the sweetness possible-see that
your jars are perfect, no cracks, put in
the corn, with the small end of your
potato masher and pack it in. A quart
jar will take twelve or thirteen ordinary
ears. When the jar is plump full put
on the rubber, screw on the covers al
most perfectly tight. | screw 1t as tight
as / can with thumb and finger. Put
hay or cloths in the bottom of your
wash boiler, lay in the cans Of corn in
any way you please-put little cloths
in to keep them from hitting each
other-fill the boiler as full as you wish,
cover over with cold water, set it over
the fire. When it begins to boil, boil
three hours without ceasing. Then take
out, and with your tightener make IL
as tight as possible Immediately. After
they are cold tighten again if you can.
Put away in dark, cool place. | keep
mine in dark closet in the cellar. II
any of you fail, you just come and take
dinner with me any time between
Thanksgiving and the LIST Of April, and,
if have any past luck, will make
you smack your lips. But If you fail
don't lay it to me.
