IIOHEMTIC RECIPES.
From the Rural Southerner.]
Maiiblk Casks.—Fur the White Cake.—
Whites of fivu eggs, one and a-half cups
of white sugar, one-half cup of butter, one
cup of tuilk, two cups of flour, half a tea-
spoonful of sods, one teaspoonful of cream
of tartar, flavor with lemon.
For the Dark Cake.--Yolks of five eggs,
one and a-half cups of brown sugar, one-
half cup of butter, one cup of milk, two
cups of flour, half a teaspoonful of soda,
one teaspoon ful of or earn of tartar, two
tuaspoonfuls of cinnamon. Put in pans
first a layer of dark cake, then a layer of
white, aud so ou, fluishiug with a layer of
dark. Bake iu a moderate oven.
Blackdkuby Wine.—Put tho berries in
a large tub; to every gallon of berries
pour on one pint of boiling water. Bruiae
them with a mullet, and let them remain
until next day. Strain through a thick
cloth. To every gallon of juioe add two
aud a half pounds of sugar. Drain again
aud put into a cask; cover the bung with
niiisliu ; put in a oool place. Shake the
cask daily until fermentation ceaaes;
cork it tight, and by September it will be
ready for use, but improves with age.

juioe, one pouud of white sugar, half
ounce each of ground cinnamon, nutmeg,
clovos and allspioe. Boil the ingredients
for s short time. When eold, add a pint
of brandy. This cordial is said to be al
most a specific for Hummer complaint or
