02/03/1824 THE UNIVERSAL EPITAPH

No flattering praises daub my stone,
My frailties and my faults to hide;
My faults and failings all are known---
I lived in sin --- in sin I died!

And O, condemn me not, I pray,
You who my sad confession view;
But ask your soul if it can say,
That I'm a viler man than you.

02/10/1824 Ginger Beer

To every gallon of spring water add one ounce of sliced white ginger, one pound of common loaf sugar, and two ounces of lemon juice; boil the mixture nearly an hour, and take off the scum; then run it through a hair sieve into a tub, and when cool (viz. at 70 degrees) add yeast in the proportion of half a pint to nine gallons; keep it in a temperate situation two days, during which it may be stirred six or eight times; then put it into a cask, which must be kept full, and the yeast taken off at the bung hole with a spoon. In a fortnight, add half a pint of fining (singlass picked and steeped in beer) to nine gallons, which will, if it has been properly fermented, clear by ascent. -- - The cask must be kept full, and the rising particles taken off at the bung hole. When hoe (which may be expected in twenty - four hours) bottle it, cork it well, and in summer it will be ripe and fit to drink in a fortnight.

02/24/1824 We are indebted to the attention of a friend in New Orleans, for a file of the "Louisiana Advertiser" to the 26th ult. which we received through the politeness of Col. Nicks, who came passenger in the Florence. These papers are barren of news. The only interesting article we find, is the Prices Current, which is inserted in a subsequent column.
