table-spoonfuls of black pepper, 2 table-spoonfuls
of cayenne pepper, 2 tea-spoonfuls of cloves, 1 of
allspice, and 1 minced onion. Chop or (rind the
meat, and mix well the powdered spices through
it. Pack in beef skins as you do those of pork, tie
both ends tightly and lay them in strong brine. Let
them remain one week, then change them into a
new brine. Let hem remain another week,
frequently turning them. Then take them out, strip
them, and send them to be smoked; when smoked
rub the surface well with sweet oil or butter and
hang them in a dark, cool place. "

Christmas pie, aside from those in the department
of " Dishes for the Table, " etc., to have always
