To Cure Hani's, Ae.
A writer who signs himself S. S. gives thr
Vowing directions for curing Irnin", shoulders,
reun !, of beef, tongues, &c., for drying, which
he HVi !,e h:is followed successfully lor twenty
years, r.rd tlmt hams (luiectird, were aolJ for
11 cents per IS. to sell again ; when, no wo nil
Kiiriw, thousands were bought of the grocer?
r d cents. Now with the difference in;ric
I "vi rn a pnnj and indifferent article, is it !
not well worth while for all engaged in its pre.
para! Ion, to secure to themsolvop, by their enre
and .-kill, n pood remunerating price, nnd leave
-:e hulfj-ricul iirticlos to be furnished by the
caroles-i, th" unskillful, nnd the unthrifty ! The
Oiri r'i..n arc its follows :
"T i eve (.--I Von nf wnter, add pi;ht pounds
com-c n ck salt, one pint of molarses, ami two
tvu ! t a!' j i i'" (nitre.) mix the ingredients in
t'.e--- i rop aliens well together, and let them

?r ihif article. All the laborious nnd tedious
triethod we hear of, Ftich as dry rubbing; with
e-t'tpetre, siij.'ar, nnd so forth, may be very p-ood
in.li e 1, hut (piilc unurct ttitry, inasmuch as
pr vi.- !v the snine end is nttained by the above
I't ice-?, with comparatively liltie trouble. Al
ter t! io hums have lain a sufficient t ime in pick
le, take theui out and let them drain lor a day
r two. before hnnoino' them tip to smoke for
which purpose hickory wood is much the best ;
end w'il'ii brought to a proper color, they may
bo p eked in caks, of any h?r, in dry fsw-lu-t,
iu med utn coarse salt, (as they will take
!m more salt.) or any compact article or they
irnv ho picked without tmv thiiur, if not int'ii-
d ! 'or export ; in w hich case it is better to in
'"M:iy theiii with somethino' to keep them fuliil

T' -' above recipe is unsttrjm ed for curing

!"..r e!ii,i;iiriir. But pork seems simple enough
c ie-anlinoss, dosptitch and plenty of salt, ate the
princ;;vil requisites. I?y despatch I mean,
liiat the meat should not be suflerud to remain
uup'iekej to long as to become partially tainted
before bein;r salted. It is thought by some,
t'tat it somotiuies left to lay too long in bulk be
f.ire salting, which accounts for fco much nn
sV.eabie meat rece ived from the interior. To
obviate all this let the pork remain as short a
time as convenient after becoming perfectly
cooi, before it is cut into proper hi-.c, &n,l Uegm

The Newark, N. J. Advertiser statet that
luring the progress d the crimnal trials in
Essex. County Omit last week, an incident oc
curred which excited deep sensation through
out 1)ic Toiirt. rv)in. Tli? history of Ihe case
in which it originated is thus stated in the Ad
vertiser :
A mother Imd visited her daughter, tlion
married two years, whom she had not fern for
I -
inni" time, having boon forbidden by her litis
Land to enter his house, in consequence of some
f.iniily (eud. During this visit of her mother
t'ie i i ii -In ml returned home and found her
grand-children on her In p. lie immediately
ordered her to leave hi9 premises ; the daughter
apprehending1 trouble, cei?.?d her child nnd left
the room. The mother not leaving as rapidly
as was desired, n brother of the hu.-.bnnd u.'.ed
some utij.i-tifiiible violence toward? !ier, which
was the foundation of the Indictment for As-
sanll andTVittoty. On H.is tiial the mothrr j
had civen her testimony, delailin? with much
emotion her lienlinent. and pivinrj utterance!
tober matornal n-riof in boiii? e'enied oil inter- ,
eour.-e w ith hf!r daughter, vhoi,t she hail not '
lifen p.Tmitted to see ?'nee the occasion oftiie
above vinit nnd violent tre ituient, which was in '
March l.iHt. I ler niiintloti excited the synipn- !
thy ofall in attendance, Mid ihe nnuniidl of a
mothei's heart could not be suppressed. After I
(ho cvauiiiiatii'ti had closed, tho l.iui.'hter was J
m xt introduced as n witness Troiii a remote!
p;,rt f tl,e C,,,t room. It was so.a tnani:i st- j
i .i . i it i . .i , c i !
ed that she had cau,:ht the contagion of her mo- i
., , ,. ... I ,. .,,11,. I
ll.er a erief nn.l it win in vfiin n he exertei tier-
fselftu stifle her sid.s. She however knew no
thinir of the nlleocd violence, because nppre
hendinff difficulty, she hud taken her inlaut
from her mother nnd loll the. room as De-ore ,
st.tted. Rut her conflict of feeling, nrisini: ;
from the rival elniins to her nfrections, between j
her husliand and tnothcr tilmo.-t overw helmed ,
her. and her truly unhappy position, with ttn j
evident struirle which was reii(!;t? her bosun
drew tears from lmnv in 'ltlerolnuce. ;
1 jilt the trvinj scene was vet to come ; the 1
daughter on ri t i inir from the witness' stand. ,
passed near where the mother w as-, and as she j
npvroachf d her mother, she sism found herself !
locked in her pan t l's fiphn.ee, nod mutual
tears nnd audible synipa.hies socn absorbed the
attention of 'ho Court. Juror, anil spectators.
The husband in.-tantly rushed to his wife,
and reniovu! h r from lo r iimther, and w hile
conducting her away, the Chief Justice, p'.r
takin of the deep feeling throughout the Court
Room, in decided and emphatic tone, directed
the husband to release hia wife, declaring tlmt

mother, while attending tourt as a witness in i
. , 1
his presence, he would p'nee him where he
'. , , ,, ... ,,l
would be unable to exercise his power. He i
. . .
thereupon loosed Ins hold on his w lie, but the 1
'
separation of the daughter from the mother had i
1 :
been ellected, and the wife was txi loyal to j
disobey the wishes of her husband, esteeming,
... I
in accordance with our Saviour's injunction, her ;
; rot.llion , lim nPnrrr than to her mother, and
j ri0.lVin5, t0 bj,,, wlt, an afTectionate tenac'ty,
t w,ic, preft-rrrd a breach any where else, than
j j,pa;r ,)l0 C(inrt of that union, bv which Ihe
hearts of husband and wife had become indie-
sololly nttaeht-d.
The whole was truly a thrilling Fcene, and
excited intense emotion in cverv heart. The
w resting of the dauol.ter from the mother
seemed to the latter like the tearing of a limb
or some member from the body, so atronizinrr

fieorpe V. Dixon.
We tee it is staled that M'. Dixon has been con
verting io the doctiiurs of Mcmcr sin, many physi
cians in E 'St Je-sey.
Dixon is a great m in, however viewed. He is
not s large man, but certainly a great man. Some
ye irs ago, Mr. Sloman commenced sinking buffo
) songs, nnei nia wue s exrieiii-oi imgiciti prrioniiaii-
ces, and it was difficult to tell which of (hem drew
the full house perhaps both. Slo nan's success
struck s spark in'o ihe l-o-om of Dixon, and he
commence I singing hullo, and the peoph- went to
heir, and laugh at him. He was eminently suc
cessful. Sh ntly afterwards Cf.auberl, the French
chcini-(. c inie to our City, built an oven in the Ma-
of i lepbants. and escaped without injurv, to the as
tori'shiiicnt ofall l-ained pr if s-ors and d s-tors of
ourciiy.whi thought he iiiii'll pu!i!i-h his preven-
; rjvo or reme.lv.
Tli.se ihinu's lir d D;x n, and he obtained pe-.
mis-ion lo tet iut i the heated oven. He came out
w, I k In-dried, hut not burnt. He took th p i-on,
but as he only lo k it into his hand, it did not kill
l.i'ii. Shortly afterwards, or befoie, we forg t which,
the cholers broke out in our city, snd every body
became busy. The citizens scjinisre.l nflT those
that could the physicians stuck by the sick, aji l
the Councils erected hospitals. One would suppose
that Dixon would have nothing lo do in the mat
ter. He was too little given to quiet, to become a
nurse scarcely (al that time,) sutTnciently advati
ced to set up as a physician. What hid he to do 1
F.nough. The enterprising man always finds a
channel for i xerlion. Diogenes, il will he recol"
IccteJ, rolled his tub, when every body eUe was t J
busy to see him sit wiihin the staves. So Mr Dix
on forthwith pu'di.hed a Cholera C Zette, giving
day by day, or from period to period, as he could
issue it, the exsct state of the city's health. Just
at mid-day, when the hand of time was on the
mark of twelve, each day there seiubled in front
of the Health OlhVc, a crowd dense enough to lyeed
a cholera, to listen to the report of the Board of
Health, on the eauex and deaths of the previous
twenty-four hours. And as true as the bell struck
twelve, o true would (J. orgis W. Dixon come forth
of the Health OlTiee. and from (he elevated step, he
himself, supwted by the dignitaries of the station
would announce ihe calamities ofthe lime, or give
hope of future health. How he obtained ihe place
of jwrmiraul of Health Otliee, we never knew, but
there he was in the tnidnt, with a face (-earning
smiles and satisfaction st the dischaige ofduv, and
evincing importance in proportiouto tb number of
deaths or new esses announced.
But the cholera left us. snd so did Dixon, with
Ihe exception of sn occa-ional visit of liolh.
Some persons ael up s p ipT in New York, that
dealt in peraonal abuse. Dixon determined to do
that also, and he was thought wor'ky besides, of
prosecution, and, for a while, he was incarcerated.
We walked out of prison just al ike tune when cer
tain persons in England were walking for a living,
or for beta, Diion being once mors on his legs, de
termined to keep them, snd if ihe Kngli.h walked
fifty miles in lif'y successive hours, Dnon would
wtk seventy miles in seventy successive ho.U'f,
sing bait d.'ien songs, and then walk, from Thills
