THE
Recipes.
Old English Christmas Plum Pudding.
—To make what is termed a pound pud
ding, take of raisins well stoned, currants
thoroughly washed, one pound each; chop
a pound of suet very finely and mix with
them; add a quarter of a pound of flour
or bread very finely crumbled, three oun
ces of sugar, one ounce and a half of gra
ted lemon peel, a blade of mace, half a
small nutmeg, one teaspoonful of ginger,
half a dozen eggs well beaten ; work it well
together, put it into a cloth, tie it firmly,
allowing room to swell, and boil not less
than four hours. It should not be suffered
to stop boiling.
Curing Hams. —At length the famous
'Newbold receipt' for curing hams has been
discovered. The old gentleman was very
choice of his secret, and preserved it until
the day of his death. After that event,
the receipt was found hid away in a hole,
in the cellar wall. Here it is: 'Seven
pounds coarse salt; five pounds brown su
gar; two ounces pearlash, and four gallons
of water. Boil altogether, and scum when
cold. Put it on the meat. Hams re
main in eight weeks —beef three weeks.
The above is for 100 lbs. weight. The ro !
ceipt is at least worth trying, and we hope
some of our farmers will test it.
llcr Majesty's Pudding. —Pound two
ounces of orange peel with one of bitter al
monds. Put it on the fire in a brass pan
with a pint of sweet milk ; stir till it boils
live minutes. Pour through a fine drain
er, add half a pint of cream, stir occasion
ally till nearly cold. Have a quarter of a
pound of ground white sugar beat up with
six eggs. Mix all together. Butter and
ornament a mould with raisins, pour in the
pudding, steam two hours. Serve with a
custard and sweatmeats round it.
Little Plum Cakes to Keep Long.—
Dry one pound of flour, and mix with six
ounces of finely pounded sugar; beat six
ounces of butter to a cream, and add to
three egg 3 well-beaten, half a pound of
currants washed and nicely dried, and the
flour and sugar; beat all for some time, then
dredge flour on tin plates, and drop the
batter on them the size of a walnut. If
properly mixed it will be a stiff'paste.
Bake in a brisk oven.
Quon Cake. —Mix one pound of dried
flour, the same of sifted sugar and of wash
ed currants; wash one pound of butter in
rose water, beat it well, then mix with it
eight eggs, yolks and whites beaten sepa
rately, and put in the dry ingredients by
degrees; beat the whole an hour; butter lit
tle tins, teacups, or saucers, filling them
only half full ; sift a little fine sugar over
just as you put them into the oven.
Imperial Gingerbread. —Hub six ounces
of butter into three quarters of a pound of
flour ; then mix six ounces of treacle with
a pint of cream carefully, lest it should
turn the cream; mix in a quarter of a pound
of double relined sugar, half an ounce of
powdered ginger, and one ounce of caraway
seeds; stir the whole well together into a
paste, cut it into shapes, and stick cut can
died orange or lemon peel on the top.
Cranberry Puddiny. —Boil one pint and
a half of cranberries cleared of the stalks
in four ounces ot sugar and water, until
they are broken and form a kind of jam ;
make up a large ball of it; cover it well
with rice washed clean and dry, then round
each fold a floured piece of cloth, which
tie as for dumplings. Boil them for one
hour; sift sugar over when served, and but
ter in a boat.
The following were sent us from Ilano
vcr, l'a., last week, and as that place is
somewhat famous for " good cakes," they
are no doubt good :
Cup Cake. —Five cups flour, three of
butter, one of milk, three eggs, well beat
en, a wine glass of wine, one of brandy,
and a little cinnamon.
Soda Cake. —One pound flour, three
ounces butter, eight ounces sugar, a quar
ter of a pint milk, three eggs, half pint
currants, one teaspoonful carbonate of soda.
Bake one hour and a half.
Bunns. —Six ounces butter, three-quar
ters of a pound sugar, one pound flour, lour
eggs, half eup new milk, a teaspoonful so- ;
da, one of cream tartar, a small nutmeg. 1
Work the butter to a cream—add the rniik
next, putting iu the flour and soda last.
Scotch Cake. —One egg, one and a half j
tablespoonsful butter, one cup crushed su
gar, one cup sweet milk, one teaspoonful
soda, two of cream tartar, one pint flour.
French Cake. —One pound sugar, three
quarters of a pound butter, the white of
one egg; the dough made stiff enough to
roll, put the yolk and sugar on the top.
Hickory-nut Cake. —One pound sugar,
one pound nuts pounded, five eggs, flour
sufficient to drop.

gar, four ct flour, one cup butter, three

A Splendid Large Extended Oven
Gas Burning Cooking Stove,
FOR COAL OR WOOD.
IT has long been a favored object with stove
dealers to construct a flat top down draft
Cooking Stove that would combine all the ad
vantages of excellent draft, large oven and good
baking properties, with the use of a moderate
amount of fuel. These desirable qualities have
all been combined in the flat top Gas Burning
Cooking Stove, the DAYLIGHT. This beau
titul stove, the result of many years' experi
ence, and combining all the improvemeuts of
the age, is one of the most perfect made. It
operates in the most perfect manner, and in sit
uations where other flat top stoves would fail to
operate. The Daylight, during the past year,
has given the most entire satisfaction, and is
surpassed by no stove of the same class. It is
new in design, beautiful in appearance, unsur
passed in its opetalions, and a gieat saver of
fuel. They are warranted to give entire satis
faction. Call and examine the Daylight, at the
Tin and Stove Establishment of

DETERSIVE SOAP
This Celebrated Washing Soap is now in
market for more than a year, and that it has
given universal satisfaction is evident from
the fact that the manufacturers of it, in order
to supply the demand, have been obliged to
increase their capacity to make equal to One
Hundred 'Thousand Pounds per If eek It is
decidedly the best and cheapest Soap ever
made in this country ; One Pound of if vill
go as far, for any use, as Three Pounds of
Common Soap in general use. It is made up
on a new principle, of the best materials, and
known only to VAN TIAAGEN & MCKEONE.
It does away entirely with the washboard —
saves the necessity of boiling the clothes,
does not shrink Flannels, REMOVES ALL
UREASE, INK OR PAINT SPOTS perfect
ly, and from the most delicate fabric, and
saves fully one-half ihe time and labor usu
ally spent to dothe washing. It is warranted
free from SAL SOV.I, or other injurious al
kalies, and guaranteed not to rot or injure
the clothes.

iBHK reputation of these very celebrated veg
j etable remedies is now unequalled by any
others in this country or tn Europe. They are
fully established as the most universal family
medicine now in use, and they will maintain
their pre-eminent renown by the intrinsic and
comprehensive virtues which acquired it. The
usual rnoJes of puffery would be unworthy of
them and is unnecessary. Thousands and tens
of thousands of persons now living in perfectly
restored health can testify, as thousands have
testified, to their prompt and decided efficacy
not only in all ordinary derangements of health,
from Impaired Digestive Functions,Costiveness,
Bilious and Liver Complaints, Rheumatic and
Inflammatory Colds, Coughs, Nervous Weak
ness, Loss of Appetite, Failure of Flesh, HeaU
ache and Impure State of the Blood and other
fluids, but also in Rheumatism, F ever and Ague,
other Intermittent Fevers, Asthma, Bronchitis,
Cholic, Pleurisy, Palpitation of the Heart, Rush
of Blood to the Head, Settled Pains in the Joints,
Limbs and Organs, Affections of the Bladder
and Kidneys, Jaundice, Dropsy, Piles (howevt r
inveterate), Habitual Costiveness, Serous and
Bilious Looseness, Obstinate Headache and
Giddiness, and an immense uurnber of other
maladies, They require no dieting nor confine
ment, are perfectly mild and pieasant in their
operation, but will powerfully restore health—
the greatest of earthly blessings—to the most
exhausted and dilapidated constitutions.

THE undersigned liaving purchased the right for this
Cement in Mnfiiii and Centre counties, is now prepar
ed to furnish and put it on roofing wherever desired—the
roof being sheeted by the owner. Scientific men under
the direction of government, and architects and builders
in various parts of the country, for years have been
study ing and experimenting to discover some composition
or article for rooting, which would resist the changes of
our climate, and would unite the qualities of import ious
ness to water, incombustibility, durability and heapness
No article now in use possesses these qualities, Shingles
are not fire proof, and cannot be used oil flat roofs, rilate
can only he used upon steep roofs. The contraction, ex
pansion and rusting of metallic roofs are so great in this
changeable climate that they soon become worthless, or
the repairs will cost more than a new roof The various
cements and compositions which have been introduced
can be supplied only to very flat roofs, and they are all so
affected by the action of the weather that they will melt
and run in summer and crack in winter, and in a short
time become crumbly and worthless. The inventor of
the Galvanic Cement lias labored twenty years to obviate
these difficulties, and it is believed by those who have,
had opportunities to test the matter, that he has entiieiy
succeeded. As now applied,
First—U is completely impervious to water. Water
may continually stand upon the roof without affecting it
in the least.
Second—!t is fire proof. It is so incombustible thai h
wiil atford ample and perfect protection against fire,
sparks and burning shingles from another building imme
diately adjoining.
Third—lt is durable. It is not injured by atmospheric
changes, liaving been tested for several years by the
patentee, at Syracuse, New York.
Fourth —lt is cheap. Hoofs will he put on for about
half the cost of tin, and will last much longer.
Fifth—Repairs are easily and cheaply made.
s?ix:h—lt is sufficiently elastic to entirely resist the ex
pansion and contraction by heat am! c..ld, and will re
main perfect and solid in llic warmest or coldest weather.
Seventh—U is adapted to all kinds of roofs, either flat
or steep.
Eighth—lt is valuable for repairing old rooY Old shin
gle reals may be covered w.thout removing the shingles.
Old metallic roofs can he made |>erfectly light and
Ninth—lt is especially adapted to alt kinds of seaming
j around battlements, sky tights ar.d chimneys, and for linj
lining of eave troughs and gutters. Roofs which have
! given trouble for years, and which have continued to leak
in spite of all efforts, can be made perfectly secure b>
Ibis cement.
Tenth—lt has been proved to be the best article ever
| used for covering car tops and steamboat decks.
Eleventh—This cement applied to new tin roofs pre
serves them from rusting, by furnishing a coat which is
at once impervious to water and an almost perfect non
conductor of heat.
Twelfth—lt is ika only rooting material patented which
contains India rubber and gutta perclta.
