I young men, "who, if they devoted to j any scientific or professional pur-1 suits the time they spend in games of chance,, and lounging in bed, might rise to any eminence. You have 'all read , of the sexton's son who became a fine astronoraerB hy spending a 'short time every. even ino; in gazinsr'at the stars after ring ing the bell for nine o'clock. Sir William Piiipps, who at the age of forty-five had obtained the order of knighthood,, and the office of high' Sheriff of New-England, and Gov ernor of : Massachusetts, learned-to read and write after his eighteenth year of a ship carpenter in Boston William Giffor J, the great editor bf the Quarterly, was an apprentice to a shoe-maker, and spent his leisure 1 jurs in study.

L Recipe for Curing Meat Those who will carefully adopt our method of curing . ijeif and pork, will.be enabled to enjoy as fine hams, tongues, and rounds, as the Empe ror of allIiussia can command, ai ways providing that the meat cured is of -the best quality. 'It is tliis: j To one gallon of Avater. take l.V lbs. of salt' lb. of sujrar, oz. of i ''' :' ' ' ' 1 Saltpetre, v oz. of potash. ; . j In this ratio the pickle to be in-1 creased to any quantity desired. Let these be boiled together, until all thp dirt from the sugar, (widen will be noi aditle,) rises' tolhe top, and is skimmed off. Then -throw it j into a tub to cool, and when cold, ;,pourit over your .bcof or pork, ,to jtemain the usual time, say four to ' six weeks. The meat must be well covered with pickle,5 and should not ; i be put down for at least. two days j aftel" : king, during which time J should be slightly "sprinkled with powdered saltpetre. , 41 :t-l i Seyeral;of our friends have omit ted the boiling of the pickle, and fouiul ii; to answer equally as well.
