    1      tablespoon    ground ginger
      1/2  teaspoon      ground cinnamon
      1/2  teaspoon      ground nutmeg
      1/2  teaspoon      ground cloves
    1      teaspoon      salt
    1      teaspoon      baking soda
      1/2  cup           sweet butter
    1      cup           molasses
      1/2  cup           dark brown sugar

 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Butter and flour a 9- x 2-inch round cake
 pan.  Sift together the dry ingredients and set aside in a bowl.  In a small
 saucepan, melt the butter, then add molasses and brown sugar.  Set aside to
 cool.  When the butter mixture is cool, stir into the dry ingredients and mix
 thoroughly.  Finish by adding the buttermilk, orange juice and eggs.  Place
 the batter in the prepared round cake pan and bake for 35--40 minutes until
 well done.
