Now, whilst ii is unquestionably wrong in such weather to pack warm, there can be no rational obiee.tion to sfili ing warm meat, as we thereby get rid of the animal heat more rapidly, and the salt dissolves and trike in" more readily. My rule for twenty odd years has been to have my pork slightly salted as soon as 1 can have it cut out?lay it thin will) the suit upon it the next day, and then pack it with plenty! of salt. Since adopting this course, I have never linn "spoiled meat," except now and then a piece from insects; and one year from trying the experiment of hanging a part of my meat only fortyeight hours after salting. Cutting out the moat while warm require* a sharper knife and mor?? care; and twice and saltI ing after cutting out gives a little more I I i .1 .

The course here advocated is not only best^in warm weather, but is equally \ advantageous in extreme cold weather.

The American Publishers theroforo deem it proper to cull renewod Attention t?> the works they republish and the vory low prices at which they are otFertd to subscribers. The following is their list, viz: TUE LONDON QUARTERLY IU5VIEW, THE EDINDl'ROII REVIEW, fUE SOMH EJtmSH RKVIFTT, the WliSTMIXSTKR RfcVtKW, Av and ulackwood's kuindukoh mauazink. In those periodicals nrc contained the ?, , Liiuu^n cicany and firmly expressed, of the three greaj parties in England?Tory, Whig, and Radical?"Blackwood" and the "London Quarterly" are Tory ; the "Edinburgh Review" Whig; and the "Westminster lb-view" Liberal. The "North British Review" owes its establishment to tbe lust great ecclesiastical movement in Scotland, and is not ultra in its views on any one of the grand departments of human knowledge; it was oriirinallv orlifpil 1 ? U ij " '* ?by l)r. Chalmers, and now, bincc his death, is conducted by his son-in-law, Dr. Hnnna, associated with Sir David Brewster. Its literary character is of the verv highest order. 7'hc "Westminster," though reprinted under that title only, is published in England under the title of the "Foreign Quarterly and Westminster," it being in fact a union of the two Reviews formerly published and reprinted under separate titles. It has , therefore, lho advantage by this combination, of uniting in one work the host I features of both as heretofore issued. The nbove Periodicals are reprinted in New York, immediately on their arrival by the British steamers, in a beautiful clear type, on fine white paper, and are faithful copics of the originals, Blackwood's Magazine being an exact facsimile of the Edinburgh edition.
