Hail! first of Arts, source of domestic case ; Pride of the land, and patron of the seas. On CAieesfc flaking, As practised at one of the most eminent Dairies in New-England, communicated at the request of the Editor of the American Farmer. Sir Agreeably to your request we have obtained from our brother, Leonard Murlbert, a brief account of his manner of makinir Cheese, which wc enclose vou for publication, if you deem it worthy of a place in your useful paper. His manner of making Cheese we suppose to be as perfect as any yet discovered, as his cheese is of an excellent quality, and is known in Baltimore as such specimens of which probably may be seen at Barnum's Tav ern, and at M'CIurc Sc Foltze, and Mar pie Sc Williams' stores, who have had of the dairy for a number of years past. Yours, respectfully, SAML. HUHLBF.RT h. CO. CHEESE MAKING. From Iomj experience I have found the following to be the best method of manu facturing Cheese, viz : Add the night's milk with the morning's milk, and gently heat it over a fire in a kettle to 94 degrees, then put it in a tub or vat, then add a suf ficient quantity of prepared annatto to give it a handsome yellow colour ; next add a sufficient quantity of runnet to make it curd in 25 minutes when curded, make use of a wooden knife or sword of suffi cient length to reach the bottom of the tub, and chequer it all in squares of about two inches ; it is important that it should all be chequered to the bottom then let it stand until the whey appears above the curd, say from 15 to 20 minutes ; then break it up carefully with the hands in such a manner as not to bruise or break the pieces of cird ; next place a clean strainer on top of the whey and curd, and press it down gently so as to cause the whey to arise on top, then L?de off the whey with a dish or dipper, what can be conveniently taken ofT in that way ; then place a cheese strainer in a cheese basket over a tub, and carefully remove the curd and remaining whey into it, and cut it in to blices with a thin skimmer, until the whey has mostly drained out ; then bring the corners of the strainer together and twist them so as to press the curd into a solid mass, and place the twisted corners down in the basket, and place a clean board of about one foot square on the top of it, on which place about 20 lbs. weight in or der to press out the whey and consolidate the curd. After remaining in this situa tion about 1 5 minutes the curd is to be cut in pieces of about one inch square, with a knife resembling a common carving knife, then to be put into the strainer ex actly as before stated, with the weiqrht on it, and remain from 10 to 15 minutes, and then cut as last stated, and so repeated from six to ten times, until the whev has entirely done dripping from it after which it is taken out and cut into pieces of about two inches square, and put into a wooden bowl and chopped with a chop ping knife, until the pieces are about the size of an Indian corn. The next process is scalding, -which is dene by putting the curd into a strainer and putting it into a kettle of hot whey, heated to 125 degrees and no more, for if the whey is too hot it will ruin the cheese and make it hard and dry. While in the whey it must be stir red with the hand until the whole is equal ly heated, it is then taken cut and put in to the cheese basket over a tub, and a suffi cient quantity of clean fine salt thoroughly mixed with it to give it a high salt flavour, and let it stand until it is hardlv blood warm, then the corners of the strainer arc twisted together as before, when it is put into the hoop designed for the purpose, and nlaced into the uress and m-essed in this instance, with the average weight of about 100 lbs. to every ten pounds of curd ; to remain about half an hour in the press, then taken out and turned in the hoop and replaced in the press, and add about one third to the weight in pressing or press it one third harder than before, and let it re main about three hours ; then it is taken out and placed in a clean fine linen cloth, (pains should be taken that the cloth be perfectly smooth and no wrinkles in it,) it is put again into the hoop and pressed for forty-eight hours, being taken out and turned once during the time. At this pressing about one third additional weight must be added it is then taken out and oiled, and put on the shelf to cure, where it must be turned, rubbed and ciled at least every twenty-four hours until it is thor oughly cured. My method of preparing the oil I use on Cheese, is as follows, viz : I put the whey I scald the curd in, into a tub and let it stand about 24 hours and an oil arises on the surface, which I skim off and put into a kettle and simmer it over a moder ate fire, when the sediment will settle to the bottom, and I pour off a beautiful pure oil, which is fit for use. For painting cheese I make use of the best Spanish annatto. I would here take the liberty to remark, that there is a great deal of the counterfeit Spanish annatto manufactur ed in this country, and is good for noth ing ; and it appears to those who are not perfectly acquainted with the article, to be of good quality, and the people have been much imposed upon with it, for the last ten years. Take eight ounces of Spanish annatto, or in proportion as may be want ed, and put it into three gallons of weak lye, made from pot or common ashes, and boil it until it dissolves and becomes of a bright yellow colour thus it may be put into the milk as before described. To prepare the runnet to put into the cheese, I take the calf's second stomach imme diately after the calf is killed, and take cut the contents, which are called curd, which I do not save, as it is of no use, (as some have mistakenly supposed,) as by using it the cheese is injured thereby. I rinse the bag clean in cold water and rub it all over with fine salt and lay it away to dry ; when dry I make about one gallon of brine to cacli bag, by mixing as much clean alum salt with hot water as the wa ter will dissolve, and after the brine is cool, I put it in the bag, and wrhen it has soaked several days it will be fit for use. LEONARD HURLBEUT. Winchester, Litchfield Countv,' Connecticut, 29th March, 1821. 5 DELICATE MISTAKE. When Dr. Samuel Johnson lodged at Kettle Hall, in the University of Oxford, at a Air- Thompson's, a cabinet maker, the maid, by an unfortunate mistake, brought him one day a ciemzse of Airs. Thompson's to put on instead of his own shirt. The Doctor contemplating on no thing but Ramblers and Idlers, and co lossal dictionaries, shoved his arms, head and shoulders into the lady's linen before he discovered his error. Who has cut off the sleeves of my shirt ? Who has cut off the collar of my shirt I exclaimed the enraged and hampered moralist, with Stentorian vociferation, dancing, and tug ging and roaring for freedom. This roar brought up poor Mrs. Thompson, who, with the most consummate delicacy, shut ting her two chaste eyes, slipped her hand into the room, and delivered her giant guest from his enchanted castle. DON ONIS'S MEMOIR. This work has been published in Washington, with a sensible preface by the translator, Dr. Wat kins who pronounces it an extraordinary produc tion, and has no doubt that it was in strumental in procuring the ratification of the Spanish Treaty. Extracts from it are given in the Intelligencer and City Gazette of Washington. The 13 on gives a very unfavorable portrait of the people of the United States, ;vho "brought with them the vices of the most degenerate people of Eu rope a compound of individuals of various nations, he says, thev have no national character, and immediatelv after adds, that thev are for the most part descended from English families. and that the Anglo-mania is always prevalent. He gives our character in far from flattering colours ; condemns our vanity and pride ; which by the way render us very similar to the En glish ; and ridicules our haughty senti ments and brilliant predictions li the house in which the Congress hold their session, is called the Capitol, and a lit tle rivulet near it, about three yards wide and a fourth deep, they denomi nate the Tiber, and many of their meanest settlements have the names of the most celebrated cities of Greece and Rome." He, however, docs am ple justice to our navy, and brave tars, and highly praises our naval officers, and has no doubt that v.e will show the same superiority over the BTitish in grand battles, as we have over single frigates and on the lakes. lie depre ciates the army, and commiserates the situation of the Indians on our borders. This, wc should say, comes with an ill grace from the representative of a government, which considers the In dian population of its provinces, eve ry way inferior to ours, as only fit to work in the mines as beasts of burthen, and which at different times has shed the blood of millions. He gives the lollowing unlovely picture of the inhab itants of the Southern States. It is a subject of regret that he did not give, the sources cf his information. 44 In the two Carolinas, the popula tion increases very little, and one third of it, as well as in Virginia and Mary land, is composed of negroes and mu Iattoes, nearly all slaves. The whites appear rather to diminish than to in crease in these states ; which must be attributed to their use of strong drink, and to a life of voluptuous excesses. Despising matrimony, they commonly unite themselves wTith the negresses and mulattresses. They are but little inclined to labor, presumptuous, vin dictive, and cruel to their slaves. The inhabitants of the North are more la borious, and less corrupt. Those of Delaware, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Georgia, are poor: and, with the exception of Delaware, they all resem ble the savages, or aboriginal Indians, very much in their customs and mode of living." O temporal O meres I Our form of government, of course, does not suit the ideas of the Don. It is badly combined, and the Executive, he says, begins already to enslave his people, and he boldly prophesies its ru in, notwithstanding, wre suppose, the efforts of the ''pensioned editors, who (as he says) support and eulogize it." We regret that we have not room for more detailed extracts. The work is extraordinary in itself, and the curios ity of the American public must be excited to hear what a man, high ir of fice, says of us, after so long a resi dence. He has not flattered us very highly, and we believe, he will not be himself flattered, if he read the re marks, which his v.rork will elicit. Savannah Georgian. AMERICA AND GREAT BRITAIN. The Iloston Daily Advertiser has published extracts of a letter (dated Jan. 2.) from the cel ebrated Mrs. Axxe Giiaxt, to a friend in the vi cinity of Boston, of which the following is a part. " Your country is like Virgil's fame, enlarging while we look at it, till we aro overwhelmed by its magnitude. While we, bound in our watery girdle and sink ing under the debt in which our valor and generosity have involved us, have no oth er sources from which to support o:r con sequence but our intellectual wealth ; the legacies left us by the glorious bards and sages of the olden time, and the new crop of poetic laurels that are springing daily up with unequalled vigor and frchness. Of these we have been perhaps too vain, and too ready to wonder that the Belles Lettres has not been suddenly and success fully cultivated among the stumps and Indian corn-fields of recent settlements, or amidst all the effervescence of politics and legislation to a new born empire This ground of superiority seems fas receding, and we are now by abundant candour atoning for our past arrogance. Could you believe that it is now the uni versal fashion to admire American gen nius, and with the exception of Scott's in comparable novels, there is nothing so much read, praised, and admired os the Sketch-Book and Knickerbocker, which, all reaOing people here have now discov ered Vo be a treasure of wit, humour and souud reasoning, and keen, yet geed hu moured satire. The style too is allowed 'to. be all faultless excel'rr.ce : tctallv frcp j
