Pickled Cucumbers (Gallon vinegar pounds brown)

1/2 gallon vinegar. 3 pounds brown sugar. 2 tablespoonfuls cloves. 2 tablespoonfuls allspice. 2 tablespoonfuls mustard. 2 tablespoonfuls celery. 1 tablespoonful white ginger. 1 tablespoonful cinnamon. 1 tablespoonful black pepper. 2 pods green pepper. 4 lemons sliced. A little horseradish. 12 onions, and as many cucumbers as the vinegar will well cover. Boil all together until the cucumbers are tender, and they will be ready for use in a week or so. To green the fruit: line your brass kettle with grape-leaves, and then pour weak vinegar on the cucumbers, cover with leaves, and boil a little while.--Mrs. E. I.
