During the season of Lent, an oilieer denominated [he" King's Cock Crower," crowed the hour every night within the precincts ot the p;¡Le, inslead of proclaiming it in the ordinary manner. On the tirt Ash Wednesday after the accession of the House | of Hanuver. as the lhineeof Vt ales, atterwards George I I., wa., sitting down to supper, this ofHcer suddenly | enteied the apartment and proclaimed, in a sound resem- bling the cock's shrill clarion," that it was pat tcn o'clock.

CIlItTSTI AN!TY. -1 I ._n I i.nr.sr.anIty in tiie heart oi man, ».iy rattier in tiie bosu:n of society, is a vital energy, working by rule, clothing itself in certain well-defined and identical forms, fashioning out of human _povvers_ and passions certain structural results, weaving into a tissue ()f 'he same gene- ral character and fabric M!i ?.f"?'at elements which constitute the material of its designs, and thus secur.ng ail external regu'arity and order. Hut the laws by which it works our these results are, to a certain extent, capable of modification by every variety ol surrounding influ- ences. The unchangeable tendencies ot the vital, motive principle, which, like leaven, is to leaven the wil, le mass of iiuoi.uihy, are found, nevertheless, to harmonise with ,.11 ex.! eniely tlfcxible and self-adjusting system of instru- mentality—a system which, retaining under all eircuiii- stances certain leading and cognisable forms, may yet adapt itself to the special peculiarities of time, place, custom, habit, and political constitution; and may take j an outward n;odi:ieation of form—here, for instance, by ■i healthy excitement stimulating all active zeal, there by enl ghteneil instruction regulating fervour in danger of running into fanaticism—from the peculiar moral atmos- phere, tiie combination of outward illilJ¡¡lT, in the midst of which it grows. Mt AN KI. IN *S S1T.CT ACLUS. Dr. F ratiklin describes a curious fuir of spectacles j which he used occasionally to wear:—"The same c. n- vexitv ot glass (says he) through which a man sees clearest and best at the distance proper for reading, is not the be>t for greater distances. I therefore had formerly two pairs of spectacles, which I shifted occa- i-iouaily as in travelling I somen ;.es read, and often want to re.ard tiie prospects. Finding this change troublesome, and not always sufficiently ready, I bad the glasses cut out, and half of each kind associated in the same circle tiie least convex, for v.e .ving distant objects, in the upper part of the circle; and the most convex, proper for reeding, in the lower half of the frame. By this iii":tn?, as I wear my spectacles constantly, I have only to move my eyes up or lhwn, as I want to set- distinctly tar or ri'ar; the proper glasses being always re.uiy. Although I cannot distinguish a letter, even ot large pnnT, by the naked eye, with the assistance of this invention my eyes are as useful to me as ever they were; niid it nil the other defects and infirmities of old use could be as easdy and cheaply remedied, it would be worth while to live a g >od deal longer." w h i l e to nvea?)o d dca i I oi!?er. NIGHTCAP PATENT Of PIUYILEC;E. 1 ue Nmsale privilege ot wearing the hat ia the royal presence was thrown into the shade by the following grant of Queen Mary;—"The Queen's gratitude took a very odd torm in the case of the Earl of Sussex. He was a valetudinarian, who had a great tear of uncovering his head and considering that the colds he dreaded respect- ed UJpeison, be petitioned Queen Mary for leave to wear his nightcap in her royal presence. The Queen, III her abundant grace, not only gave him leave to wear one, b it two nightcaps, if he pleased. Iiis patent tor tins privilege is perhaps unique in royal K,,o,,v ye. that we do give to our well-beloved and trusty cousin and councillor, Henry Earl of Sussex, Viscount Fi /water, Lord ui' Egremond and Burnell, licence and pardon to wear his cap. cod, or nyhfeap, or any two of them, at bis pleasure, as well in our presence as in the presence of any other j er.-on or persons within this our realm, or any oilier p! tee in <>ur dominions wheresoever, during his life ami tljese our letters shall be Ins sufficient warrant in tills behalf.'

STABLE MANAGEMENT. IIV V. S. The feed for horses in the farmer's stable is, frequently, j in lieu ot being nutritive, of a character far froiii t!iitt, and composed of peas and bean straw, and other articles of a similar nature, indigestible, and containing hut lit., nurrimcnt ill proportion to their bulk hence we have a i deranged state oi the digestive organs; tympanitis is of | frequent occurrence, and thick wind generally. Hence, too, I think, we may derive most, if not all, of those horses commonly termed pot-bellied. The farmer adopts the use ot this provender on account of the supposed I economy; but let me ask him, does he obtain the price for his horses that lie might if they were well made and sound iu wind Again, I would refer you to the treat- ment of cattle, in which the system of our forefathers is toocon)monty pursued. The advance made by those who have studied this branch of the veterinary art is disregarded by many who are large holders of this kind of stock; and,afthough, in the event of disease among their harsr.s, they may be induced to consult the regular practitioner, it is not so should their cuttle be the subjects of visitation. No here they have recourse to the drug- gist, or to the cowleech, or to some knowing" iia of their neighbourhood; and drenches of heating seeds and spices are poured dUWll the poor beast's throat, as if the i way to extinguish a fire were to put on more lighted fuel: e. p. for yellows you have cummin seeds, aniseeds, tenugeek, &c.; a dose composed of which, ill my opinion, resembles curiae for the human subject with hepatitis. Ited herrings for murrain and 'or scouring in calves, are among the famous remedies of these sags, who are sure I to cure their patients, 1. c. if they do not kill them. The humbug ot these men renders it imperative on all the members of the profession to press onward in the study lot cattle medicine; and I am sure that even a little knowle lge of the diseases and treatment of animals will lie better than the shameful ignorance that has pievailed — uo.al I say I ('(' J L or Ui: .2 EXTRAOHDK ARV ANTIPATHY TO BILLS OF EXCHANGE. The late Mr. John Davis, the predecessor of Mr. Bar- tram, the principal otticer in the Cocket-offiee, at the Mansion-house, had a most decided abhorrence of all hills or exchange, promissory notes, or securities for money, such as are frequently interchanged between men of business and men who pretend to be men ot business. Some years ago it sometimes occurred that gentlemen I connected with the Lord .Mayor's household made their bills payable at t!ie Cocket-oifice, and Mr. Davis, who was an extremely polite and obliging man, w is in the habit ol taking u > such bills as were presented, provided the money « £ left in his hands to meet the occasions. lie course, however, was his invariable- prac- tice:—When the clerk of a banking-house would call to mention the particulars of the bill presented, Of:, yes, sir," would say, "pray be good ellough to sit I down and receipt the tiling, and I shall give you the money, sir." He would then hard the money to the bankers clerk, and running to the fire-pbice, take up the tongs, c:lt;:h hold of the bill with it, and drop the thing h, so much dreaded into a drawer in which he never deposited an"ything of his own. The extraordinary scene never tailed to excite laughter among ct aII who witnessed ir, except the principal ctor, who never smiled, but appeared to be uneasy until *.he owner of the hdl fnkrcd the oSice. Well, Mr. Davis," the drawer would say, upon entering the door, "has any one called j t;>r the amount"Oil dear yes, Sir, I have paid it, Sir." Then will you oblige me with the bill, Mr. Da- vis?" cried the obliged gentleman. Oh, bj all means, dear Sir," replied Mr. Davis, and running to the lire- place, he would seize the tongs again, and lifting the bill with it out of the desk, Excuse me, güc:>d Sir," he A ould add, I nnke it a rule never to tOllch hings oftlw kind," then drop it into the hat ol the astonished owner, dud resume his pen with evident satisfaction. It in- stated by some of the old stagers about the Mansion- bouse tb.it Mr. Davis treated Lord .Mayor's bills, which were made payable at the Cocke'. Oiiice, with the same sort of ceremony. He had, as may well be supposed, some very eccentric peculiarities about him. When the assize was 011 the bread the bakers used to make the returns at the Cocket Office, and if a baker happened to die it became Mr. Davis's duty to write to t'ne w idt)wot the deceased, if such a person was to be lound. In di- recting a b-tter to a lady under such circuinsianees it was always oh erved that he addressed her Mrs. Smith or Mrs. Jones, bA.ress," and upon being askeil why he did not write tiie word baker" on the super- scripiion, iiaker said he, "why should call her a on call a she Quaker a Quakeress, and way should,, {c?n ;t.?.; b.k". ;i r-?"

I Ii.s ativiourly expected work i» just out, ami from what we have seen of it, ve would say that it is likely to satisfy even the highly raised expectations cf the public, i he following art a few hasty extracts — AMERICAN CHARACTER.—" The Americans are by nature frank, brave, cordial, hospitable, and alfeciionate. Cultivation and refinement seem but to enhance their warmth of heart and ardent enthusiasm and it is the possession of these latter qualities iu a most remarkable degree, which renders an educated American one of the most endearing and most generous of friends. I never VHS so %Nl(ltl ulo 'i a-; by tllis class; IIcu:r yi,.J,lcd up my full confidence and esteem so readily and pleasurably as to them never can again make, in Ialf a year, so many friendsj for whom I seen: to entertain the regard of half d life. 1 iiese qualities are natural, I implicitly believe, to the whole people. That they are, however, sadly sapped and blighted in their growth among the mass and tli-t tin-re are influences at work which endanger tin m still more, and give but little present promise of their healthy restoration, is a truth that ought to be told." -M r. Dickens enumerates among those influences a spirit of distiust, a love of "simirt" dealing, which gilds over" Illany a swindle and gross breach of trust," and an inordinate love of traffic. These three characteristics," he are strongly presented at every turn full in the sti-;uigc!t-'s vie%v. But the foul growth of America hdS a more tangled root tljin this; aiict it strikes its fibres deep AMERICAN NEWSPAPER PitEss. k!yiong the herd of journals which are published in the States, there are some, the reader need scarcely be told, of character and credit. From personal intercourse with accomplished gentlemen connected with publications of this ddSS, I have derived both pleasdre and profit; but the name of these is 'ew, ttjcl of the others Legion and the infIlI- ence ot the good is powerless to counteract the moral poison of the bad. Among thegeutiy of America—among the well-informed and the moderate—in the learned pro- fessions—at the bar, and oil tne bench, there is, as there can be, but one iii reference to the vicious cha- racter ot these ii.tnmous journals. It is sometimes con- tetidOLI -1 will not say strangely, for it is natural to seek excuses for such disgrace—that their influence is not so great as a visitor would suppose. I must e pardlJlled for saying there is no warrant lor this plea, and that every tact and circumstance ten is directly to the opposite con- clusion. When any of (tesert, in intel- lect or character, can climb to any public distinction, no matter what, in America, without first grovelling down up ii the earth, and bending the knee before this monster of depravity when any private excellence is safe from its attacks—when any social confidence is left unbroken by it, or any tie of social decency and honour is held in the least regard—when any man in that free country has freedom of opini n, and presumes to think for himself, without numble reference to a censorship which, for its rampant ignorance and base dishonesty he t¿ter. leather and ds;:?es iii Ms heart,—when those who most acutely f_ed el its infamy and the rewoach it casts upon the nation, and who most denounce it to each other, dare to set their heels upon it, and j crush it ol)eiily in the sight of all men, then will I be- lieve that its influence is lessening, and men are return- ing to their manly senses. But while the press has its evil eye in every house and its black band in every ap- pointment in the state, from a president to a postlllan,- while, with ribald slander for its only stock-in-trade, it is the standard literature of all enormous class, who must Hiid their reading in a or they ivill not read at all so long must the odium be upon the country's head, and sc long must the evil it works be pl.iinly visible in the republic. Tu those who are accustomed to the leading English journals; or to the iespectable journals of the continent 01 Europe,—to those who are accustomed to anything else in print and paper, it would be impossible, v\i^ tbout an amount of extract for which I have neither space nor inclination, to eonvev an adequate idea of this frightful engine in America. But if any man desi- c con- tirmation oi my statement on this head, let him repair to any place in this city of London, where scattered numbers of these publications are to be found, and there lei him form his own opinion.

I VALUE OF NEWSPAPER-HEADING.…
VALUE OF NEWSPAPER-HEADING. (ADDRESSED TO THE NON-READING PURI IC OF RT'KAI, WELSH DISTRICTS), IS Y TIIE AUTHOR OV THE "MOUN- TAIN DECAMERON." Dr. Johnson, when in the fulness of years and know- ledge, said, I never take up a Newspaper without find- in; something- I should have deemed it a loss not to have not seen never without deriving from it instruction and amusement," or something to that effect. Many persons, who are but as children compared to him, would perhaps deem themselves degraded by such an admission. Few ol the habitual readers of these familiar, yet wonderful, chronicles of the w hole world's doings, trouble themsel ves to reilect on the miracle (little less) wrought for them weekly and daily by human arts-union (to borrow a new kind of phrase) iu the unpretending, unbound rolttiiie- for such it is, which lies, still damp from the press, as re- gularly on the breakfast table as their plate and roll, and scarcely regarded as any tiling more extraordinary. How very few recollect the immense results effected—the uio- rious bulwark erected and maintained, for our rights, liberties, and manifold other bless Iiigs-by the engine to which they owe that simple sheet of letter I)ress-its beauty and curiosity, its utility, its sublimity I say, recollect,' for the truth ot this eulogy is so self-evident that it only requires the attention of any reHecting mind to challenge dissent; let such mind but concentrate its thoughts ( I, the subject, and it will soon find that it is no- thing extravagant to say that next to speech itself the free Newspaper Fress is one of the most precious gifts of Providence: next to printing, the noblest achievement ol human intellect. That all this will sound very queer' to numbers of even intelligent persons in the rural districts of South Wales (and perhaps of North) I am well assured, and it is the surprising, the lamentable—I shall be bold to fay—disgraceful renouncement of this fine fruit of civil- ization, by numbers of farmers and others in my neigh- bourhood, which has prompted this (wholly disinterested) appeal in favour of newspaper-reading, from one nowise connected with or interested in the circulation of papers. I could not have believed, prior to my naturalizing my- self in Wales, twenty years ago (e/ieu, fugacc sl(ibtititttt- aani !) that sensible, respectable men, above labourers, able to read, deeply, interested in the information, (on markets, on the hopes and prospects of the current sea- son, oa the state of their profession, and agriculture in general,) which is profcrred at an almost nominal expense, procurable by every postmaster—I say it would have seemed to me incredible that the-e intelligent members of the great family of Man would contentedly live on, without ever informing themselves of what is going on in the world wherein God has been graciously pleased to i place them, a highly civilized, inventive, social, wonder- ful world, (or rather age of the world,) peculiarly incen- tive to curiosity, and fertile of food tor it-yet, such IS the tact. 1 talk diuly with men, whose thriving condition as tanners, and homely respectability, evince that they are men,and well disposed men but how melancholy to tind, on conversing with them, that they are in utter ignorance, —children far below educated ones,—on a par with poor neglected little children and this wholly from the habit of never resid ing. Imagine a very numerous family, all I resident iu one house of ample size; and next imagine some two or three of the brothers secluding their sulky selves in some remotest chamber of it, making that their separate dwelling- pbce, and resolutely refusing to bear any tidings whatever of the fates and fortunes of the rest of the family, rejecting all information of them, though one knocks at the door daily to tell them all that is going on, all but gratuitously (what is the cost of a newspaper d.vided between two or three?) living on thus, sullenly, silently, and at last borne dead out of their own house, in wh:ch they have made themselves strangers and occupied but as rats, or other secret vermin, holding no commu- nion, feeling no sympathy with tlwir fellow occupants? Non-reading gentlemen of the Welsh soil, whether te- nants or landholders in whatever rank, you must pardon me if I submit, that to thus live and thus die like a rat in a hole, mere devourers of the fruits of the earth, (although your hands may raise them,) is unworthy of a iii;tli-llle- j lancholy in a fortunate, civilized, man of a highly-social nation. I have been seduced, by the arousing and painful inte-j rest of the subject, away from that calmer estimate of Ihe i value of newspapers which I proposed, and shall now postpone it to conclude my remonstrance against the neg- lect of the benefits they confer, and shall reserve fcr my conclusion that dispassionate panegyric which a mere re- cital of the effects, past, present, continual, of the news- paper press cannot fail to constitute. It is now about 251 years since your forefathers in- vented the luxury (to than) of .a newspaper. l'be spirit of moral and religious liberty Lad recently, in the Re- tormation, arouced the sleeping giant-mind to the know- ledge and exercise of its own strength, and the spirit of personal f: eelhm; threatened by the Spanish Armada, it was, which projected thi9 glorious new mode of communi- cation between minds. In all this long period never has that luxury been forgotten, never disused, but become a necessary, (to England at least—to all [)tit !li)t( ,) has gone flourishing on, and blessing the whole community more and more, laying the foundation of all the blessings we enjoy as freemen living under, a limited government, in- cluding many of those which yon enjoy, (like the air you breathe without one thought about it,) who live oil witli- out onE grateful recollection of it, or regard to its exist- ence. Is it not a shameful—an astonishing tliiiig that thuusands of British men should be found existing in a fine country, bordering high roads, with steam eveimoie transporting tidings from the great metropolis, with al. most tire speed of the wind, past their daily haunts, yet they never feeling curiosity about the curious novelties of vast hnman interest thus Hying near them, but vege- tating on like their own fine potatoes, (all eyes, yet seeing "othing.) like littlt- ktlots of melancholy savatres, as if the few fields round them were a dividing sea, and every farm a desert island, foregoing all that rich feast of mind to save the small charge" of some fourpence of fivepence And what—gentlemen of Wales-torus of the Welsh soil —can be the clluse of this unsocial aptt,ly-LIkis lAntil-,Ijlly sluggishness of minds and hearts —(ycY hearts—for must not the heart also become like a standing pool, shut from their kind, unstirred by external human events from birth to burial, and the whole man become wholly sensual, thus confined to objects of mere sense ?) I say what can cause —at leas' what can perpetuate this^ vn-English selfish- ness of indifference—this want of bruthcriucd in such wariti characters as the Welsh, but your example ?—your indifference to everything but their punctuality on rent days? Iyour tenants perceive too often, an exalta- tion of the bottle above the book m some few of you, a latent COli tempt of letters, a preference for more robust pleasures, a denial of all claim to respect founded on lite- rary accomplishments only, which a bumble tradesman of Loudon would know to be "behind the age," and there- fore blush to betray, much more to display. mar. wdiose proved talent or acquirements shoii-d prove u passport to the society of first-rate Iiteiary characters in London would be amused, if not astonished, to find how utterly Illdl and void it would be held as such, to your more select ii)oi-e I"isti(lioLis ,:ocit.ty Not even a place below the salt" would the mere man of letters be held worthy of it your hospitable board.

I happen to know the vast influence afforded in fostering reading habits (the purest blessing of the cottage or farm house fireside) in the humblest country people, by the example of a literary gentleman, (though the most I-cclu,e of Ills tril)e,) Wordsworth.

Can any language over-rate comlort, the gladness, the sense of salvation conveyed to the sunken heart and bunting brain of an innocent person, wrongfully accused, by this blessed timely mediation of the pl_ ess Nor is the purity of public Judicature less under its protection than individuals who may be brought to its bar. Secret tribunals have always been justly odious and terrible to the free, because secresy facilitates abuse, and history proves that that facility hag led to such abuse. Instances are numerous and notorious. Publicity, rapid and extensive, is the bulwark of pure justice, the salutary prospective check oil human selfishness in the J udg-e; and what call effect this publicity but the Press? A in the case just supposed of false accusation, but for the Press, a perpetual cloud of obscurity would hang over tribunals and their victims, through which both the judgment seat—the accuser—the accused would appear in false colours by turns but under the present wonderful rapidity of reporting and publishing, that cloud is instantly scattered the tell. pie. of Justice is displayed pure, and by that ever open display, preserced in that pur ty, private character equally subjected to public inspection- the sun of truth breaks upon the dark, correcting the distortions of every object incident to ignorance and con- jecture, and the judge and the judged equally rejoice in the blaze ot light cast around them. May not that wondrous luminary of the public mind, the Newspaper Press, be fairly compared to a sun breaking on shadows and cloudy darkness, and those multiplied, light, and swiftly-produced vehicles of truth, flying out on the wings of steam, now all abroad, over three kingdoms, almost with the celerity of liglit-to the radiation of the sun's rays cheering minds and opening up landcapes ? Assuredly, in the iiioritl world, fair prospects have been developed by it, and glorious glimpses of Man's im- proved nature afforded to the philanthropist, in spite of all which the abuse of its freedom may have done towards eclipsing that glory, and blessedness of purpose, and even reducing it to a" bloody set." A commnity without the means of communicating their thoughts, wishes, and efforts, most resemble a ship's crew all hidden by the densest tog from each other, and their voices drowned by a furious wind, so that their separate efforts to steer the ship safely counteract each other from the ignorance of each what the others are dning, or wish done. Steam presses and steam carriages have now carried the means of communication to the highest pitch ot perfection, rendering the combined intellects of a whole people almost as one great mind. Nor should the fact have been oivitted (while I was adverting to the publicity of law proceedings) of the vast national benefit conferred by the Press in constantly blazoning to the world the progresses and issues of all Iduds ot trials. It is not enough, ill a bllld ol freemen, that a strong opinion should prevail o! justice being in every man s reach. The number of persons actually benefited by just, judgments is inconsiderable in comparison with a population. 11 is necessary towards the fearless enjoy- ments of their rights, that the success of those few litigants should be universally known to their countrymen. Surely no assurance can be so precious to the mind of the man loving liberty and loathing injustice as that of the incor- ruptibility of the judge, before whom lie, and every man born in the realm, is liable some time to be arraigned. I t was in the darkness of non-intercourse between minds, before the rise of the free press, that clients dared to lam per with Judges on the judgment seat. It was in the leeble twilight of that sunrise that Queen Elizabeth still abused her power by that abominable species of corruption. The great Bacon but acccph d presents deigned as bribes, yet the brand remains on his name even forthis. Would not popular opinion, had it pos- sessed such a voict: of thunder as the Press affords it now, have preserved that mighty mind from this "damning spot" that has cleaved to it through two centuries? Happy for English men, happy tor Knglish judges that now the former can say to them, sitting incorruptible, and proved incorruptible, The justice which you, in your lugh office administer toward such of us, as appear before you, we the People award you the meed of perfect con- fidence and admiration of your unwearied patience, humanity, and lofty sense of honour: 'Vus dc reo, dc vobi.i populus Jlomauiis jadicabit

It will give our readers some idea of the extent of the legislative labours of the session, when we say, that, on examination, we find that the 123 statutes contain the enormous number of 2,565 clauses. And if we suppose that the 1/8 private Acts which were passed contained an average number of clauses, then the total number would be 6,214. But however thIs may be, we think it will strike more persous than one, as being curiously indicative of the state of the country at large, and of the prospects of the Peel Government in Ireland, when we add, that the two last statutes of the session yie solemn acts bv which the Tory Parliament concluded its d,-Iibei-ations- ere humane devices for reudering the condition of English bankrupts aud Irish lunatics a little more comfortable than before

MANAGEMENT OF PORK.I
MANAGEMENT OF PORK. I In Europe, the Russian pork bears a high price; and its quality is supposed to be owing to the piekle in which it is preserved. Thi i called the" Empress of Russia's Brine," and is prepared as followsBoil together, over a gentle hre, six pounds of common salt (that in most common use in Russia is rock-salt,) two pounds of pc'wderetl loaf-sligar, three ounces of saltpetre, and three gallons of pure spring water. Skim it while boiling, and when. quite culd pour it over the meat, everv part- of which roust be covered with brine. Small pork iviu be sufficiently cured in four days; hams intended for drying in two weeks, unless they are verv large. Tliig pickle may ba used again anel aain, if it be fresh boiled up with a small addition of ingredients. Before putting the meat into the brine, wash it in water,: pour out the blood, and wipe it clean. Pickling tubs si.'ou'" be larger at the bottom than at the top, by whict. wieans, when well packed, the pork will retain its pl¡t,e until the last layer is exhausted. When the pork is t:,)ol, it may be cut up, the hams and shoulders for bacon, u the re- mainder salted. Cover the bottom of the tut>' or bar- rel with rock-salt, and on it place a layer of meaJ; and so on till the tnb is til!ed. Use the salt :iheraJly ana ,fill the barrel with strong brine, boiled and skimmed, ana then cooled. The following metnou ot preparing hams and shoulders is a good one, as many who have tried it in suhstance can testify. Tt,) aseertiiii tile probable weight of the meat to be prepared, weig-h a number of the liams and shoulders. Then pack them with rock- salt in a suitable tub or cask, being careful not to lay the flat sides of the larg-e pieces upon each other, and filliij, the intervals with hocks, jowls, &c. To every 3001 bs. of meat, then take 201bs. of rock-salt or Onon- daga coarse salt, lib. of saltpetre, and 1 libs, of brown sugar, or half it gallon of molasses, and as much water (pure spring water is the best) as will cover the meat; put the whole in a clean vessel, boil and scum; then set it aside to cool, and pour it on the meat till the whole is covered some three or four inches. Hams weighing from 12 to lolbs. must lay in the pickie about five weeks; from )5 to 2jlbs., six weeks; from 25 to ialbs., seven weeks. On taking them out, soak them in cold water two or three hours to remove the sur- face salt, then wipe and dry them. It is a good plan in cutting up to take off feet and hocks with a saw in stead of an axe, as it leaves a smooth surface, and no fractures for the lodgment of the fly. Some make only- six pieces of a trimmed hog for salting, but it is more convenient,when intended for domestic use, to have the side pork, as it is called, cut in small pieces. The good ness of hams and shoulders, and their preserva- tion, depend greatly on their smoking, us well as salt- ing. Owing to some misconstruction of the smoke- house, to the surface of the meat not being properly freed from the salille matter, or other causes, it not (infrequently happens that during the process of smoking, the meat is constantly moist, and imbibes a pyroligneous acid taste and smell, destructive of its i?ood qualities. The requisites of a smoke-house are, that it should be perfectly dry; not warmed by the fire that makes the smoke so far from the fire that any vapour thrown off in the smoke may be condensed before reaching the meat; so close as to exclude all flies, mice, &c. and yet capable of ventilation and es- cape ot smoke. The Westphalian hams are the most celebrated in Europe, principally cured at, and ex- ported from, Hamburg. The smoking of these is per- formed in extensive chambers in the upper stories of high buildings, SlIllIe of four or live stories; and the smoke is conveyed to these rooms from iii-vs it, file cellar, through tubes 011 which the vapour is condensed and heat absorbed, so that the smoke is both dry and cool when it comes in contact with the meat. They are thus perfectly dry, anil acquire a colour and flavor I unknown to those smoked in the common method. Ilams after being smoked may be kept any length of tirii(!, by being packed in dry ashes, powdered charcoal, or being kept in the smoke-house, if that is secure against the fly, or a smoke is rnadt under them once a week. When meat is fully smoked and dried, it may be kept hung up in a dry room, by slipping over it a cotton bag, the neck of which is closely tied around the string which supports the meat, ami thus excludes the bacon bug, &< The small part of a ham, shoulder, &c., should always be bung downwards in the process of smoking, or when suspended for preservation.

No unpaid letter is received nor any unpaid puffery inserted. Paragraphs promotive purely of private in- terest or personal gratification are of paid for. All letteis ought to be addressed to the Editor and if an answer is sought, post-oiffce labels will be enclosed. Facts unauthenticated by real signature and address can receive no attention; and after this notice, self- respect of course will prevent any non-subscriber from solicitirig favours:" but matters of general in- terest come from whom they may, will always be well received and highly appreciated. Every nuptial and obituary notice must be short; or if IUlIg, a post-office order with it will be required. We desire to supply our readers with the largest possible quantity of PUBLIC Intelligence; and to accomplish this object,limits are necessarily prescribed to merely individual en sand private purposes. The Propi ietors of the Welshman" are not answerable for the lion-arrival of papers posted from their office: and in order to simplify accounts they desire it to be distinctly understood that the shortest term of sub- scription is three months. Moreover if any person desiring to discontinue the Welshman," and who is at the same time indebted to its Proprietary would give effect to his wish, he must, of course, contemporaneously send a Post-Office Order for the liquidation of his debt. AGHNTS are requested to recollect that the shortest term of subscription is a quarter and that every "discon- tinuance ought to be accompanied by a Post-office Order. The charge for inserting an advertisement is determined by the space it occupies, according to a fixed scale, beginning at five shillings for eight lines and under. The price of admission to our columns for paragraphs (not in our ad vertising columns) is equally moderate.

GARDENING OPERATIONS FOR THE…
GARDENING OPERATIONS FOR THE WEEK. Within the last few years, the benefit of getting the roots of fruit-bearrig trees in some our command, by confining them near to the surface of the ground, has begun to be appreciated; but even now that system is not by any means so generally fol- lowed as it ought to be. For the formation of fruit- tree borders, no general rule call he laid down which would be applicable to all cases: the practice must be regulated by the quality of the soil and by the nature of the sub-soil. That in which almost all kinds of fruit-trees are the most productive and the most per- manent, is what is called "strong team ;"thatis, loam rather inclining to a clayey than to a sandy tex- ture. Perfect drainage is, however, essential in such soil, more especially if the ullrler stratllm is a stiff clay. To facilitate this, and to prevent the roots from peiie- trating into ha.1 soil, a layer, six or eight inches thick, of atones, brick -bats, or other hard rubble, should be spread evenly over the bottom as trenching proceeds, observing particularly to make the bottom of the bor- der quite smooth, and with a regular fall of six inches from the wall to the tile-drain, which must be. laid along the front, a few inches below the bottom of the border, to carry off surplus Water. The depth of soil should be governed by its texture ^nd quality. Of such as is now treated of, tivo feet in medium depth will be. amply sufficient far the support of any tree whatever. If of a more clayey nature, fifteen inches at the wall, gradually deepening six inches to the front of the bol der, is ;i proper depth. In very light soil, a greater depth shoiil f he given, say two feet or two feet six inches. Where the subsoil is not ivet, nor in nily other way inimical to vegetation, the layer of rubble "t the bottom of the border may be dispensed wilh.

Iti 11 at U, E T 11 WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE BRITISH COR MARKET. (From the Mir k Lane Express of Oct. 22.) We ventured to remark last week that we scarcely deeiiied it possible that prices of wheat eould be tIe- pressed below what they then were this opinion has not proved correct, as a further decline of Is. to 2s. per quarter has taken place in the- value of the article at most of the leading provincial markets held duringthe week, and the anxiety to sell has rather increased than diminished. This panic in the trade will. in our opinion, sooner or later work its own cure. In Lon- don the deliveries of free foreign wheat from the ware- houses have, during the last three weeks, averaged 20,000 qrs. per week. At Liverpool the total quantity uf wheat and flour on which duty was paid iu the months of July, August, and September, amounted to 58.500 qrs., whilst the stock remaining on hand is now estimated by parties well able to form a correct opinion, at 400,000 qrs., having already diminished about one-third. At other large ports similar results are apparent, and we could adduce further proofs if required, but we think the above will suffice to show that the tempting prices at which foreign wheat has been lately selling have encouraged consuiiiption, and that the quantity has been rapidly decreasing not- withstanding the distress which has prevailed in the country, and the extensive use of substitutes. The facts we here advance admit of no dispute, and as we still much question whether our own crop will prove an average, we think there is sufficient reason to doubt whether the present very low range of prices can be of long duration. At Liverpool, on Tuesday, very little business was done in any description of grain, and prices of most articles had a downward tendency. ^'Tieat, though ottered 2d. to 3d. per 701 bs. below the rates of that day e'n(jigllt, met with little attention, and thb transactions were altogether unimportan*. Flour reeeu'd 1. per barrel, and oats were quoted 2d. per 451bs. lowt". Oil Friday the trade was less de- pressed, and purc'iiises CoVs M scarcely have been made pruned, and parCt?ses Cu?. such easy terms as earlier iii fie I week. Our Bristol letters state that the operations* ir1 wheat had been quite unimportant during the week ehinK ThUlsday. buyers having shown an unwillingness to pa/ thc asked.
