One Of the best processes for sugar cur
INK is 10 rub the hams or bacon thorough
ly with hot salt and allow them to drain
two or three days. Then for each Ii or -
pounds of meat use ounce saltpetre pow
dered, three ounces brown sugar and one
ounce black pepper. Mix and rub this
in thoroughly, and the next day rub in
thoroughly with what is left OF the pre-
Vious mixture, tbree-quarters OF pound
Of coarse salt pounded fine to each IA
pounds Of meat. In four days rub with
pint Of molasses or sorghum syrup. All
this work, except the preliminary rub
bing with salt, to extract the blood, should
be in a tub to save the brine. The hams
may now lie for month in this pickle,
turning every cay or two. If you like, a
punt OF good vinegar may be added To the
pickle for each IL pounds OF meat. and
some persons add also an ounce OF jun-
per berries to each pint OF vinegar. THIS
receipt makes the finest quality of hams
and bacon, and for family use wei pays
the extra trouble.

les, fervent, earnest and continued
through centuries, have grasped only
q spotted handful here and there from
the sodden harvests of Chinese belief.
Whatever may be claimed as to the
successes of the missionaries of more
recent times, or of other churches, we
shall see further on that they afford
little encouragement to Christian
hope; and if in the future they shall
bourgeon into promise of greater fruit
fulness, it must be under conditions
widely different from those that now
exist.
Having considered those character
tics which belong to the Chinese a. .
practically homogeneous people, and
which are common to all grades and
classes, we may well ask by what stan
dard of intellect and attainment this
colossal population is managed and
controlled. In other words, our study
now leads us to an examination of the
status for governmental purposes of
the governing classes. These include,
of course, the Emperor and his subor-
dinates, the mandarins. Thirty years
ago, these latter were stated as num-
bering somewhat less than fourteen
thousand scattered through the coun-
try, together with two thousand at the
court. These belong to the civil
branch of the Government: the mill
tary mandarins numbered eighteen
thousand five hundred. The former,
however, rank the highest in point Of
popular respect and administrative
power, and with them mainly lies the
control of the vast Empire. They
are, and have been, during at least
three thousand years, drawn from all
ranks of the people; their promotion
through the several grades being de-
pendent upon their proficiency in lit
erary studies and their success in pass
ing literary examinations. As these
studies are those that have been &C.
cepted and formulated through many
centuries, the officers of the Empire
are necessarily imbued with the pop
ular reverence for antiquity, and are
fixed and riveted to established
usages. As the examinations are COM
petitive, it follows that the strongest
intellects are those which rise the most
readily and rise the highest. As craft
and subtlety have no less scope in this
than in any other department Of ef-
fort, it results that the keenest minds
come soonest into power and longest
maintain their place on the treacher-
GUS sands Of official responsibility. Az
politeness, not less than the other
characteristics we have mentioned, il
always an element of success, those
who combine urbanity with the strong
er intellectual traits are first to receive
the management of questions of state
requiring high administrative skill.
