It is sufficient to observe respecting this liquor, that it requires no
storing, being frequently brewed one week, and consumed the next. The
quantity of capsicum in one barrel of twopenny, is as much as is
commonly contained in two barrels of porter: this readily accounts for
the preference given to it by the working classes, in cold winter
mornings. Twopenny works remarkably quick, and must be carefully
attended to, in the barrels.

VACCINE INOCULATION. One of the most important discoveries in the
history of animal nature is that of the Cow Pox, which was publicly
announced by Dr. Jenner in the year 1798, though it had for ages been
known by some of the dairymen in the west of England. This malady
appears on the nipples of cows in the form of irregular pustules, and it
is now ascertained that persons inoculated with the matter taken from
them are thereby rendered incapable of the small pox infection.
Innumerable experiments have been made in different countries, in Asia
and America, with nearly the same success; and by a series of facts duly
authenticated, in many thousands of instances, it is fully proved that
the vaccine inoculation is a milder and safer disease than the
inoculated small pox; and while the one has saved its tens of thousands,
the other is going on to save its millions. With a view of extending the
beneficial effects of the new inoculation to the poor, a new dispensary,
called the Vaccine Institution, has been established in London, where
the operation is performed gratis, and the vaccine matter may be had by
those who wish to promote this superior method of inoculation. The
practice itself is very simple. Nothing more is necessary than making a
small puncture in the skin of the arm, and applying the matter. But as
it is of great consequence that the matter be good, and not too old, it
is recommended to apply for the assistance of those who make it a part
of their business, as the expense is very trifling.

VARNISH FOR BOOTS. To render boots and shoes impervious to the wet, take
a pint of linseed oil, half a pound of mutton suet, six or eight ounces
of bees' wax, and a small piece of rosin. Boil all together in a pipkin,
and let it cool to milk
