THE GREAT DICKINSON
CORN S H E L L E T

CORN S H E LII E R.
T HAVE purchased the patent right for the
i above great Corn Shelters for the State of Ar
kansaSand will at as early day as possible be at
Little Rock, prepared to sell machines and the
patent right for counties throughout the entire
State
The rights for this celebrated Corn Shelter have
been disposed of for every State in the Union, at
enormous rates, and it needs but to be seen to
commend itself to every practical man.
1t commends itself,
1st By its cheapness-
ID Durability, simplicity, lightness, portability
and no chance to get out OF order.
3d. The manner OF doing its work-and this is
curious enough. In all other machines the corn
is removed by grinding crushing, mashing,
iamming process, but in this it is picked off as
child would DO with its fingers.
4th No matter what is the size of the cob, or
shape every kernel is taken off and done neatly
that not even the chut or husk that holds the corn
is at all disturbed OF rubbed off, hence the corn
is cean-deposited in bag or box, while the
cobs unbroken are laid on one side by the machine
itself.
5th. All other machines require so much power
that they are almost useless, while this is run and
fed by boy of - years old, Who will Shell from
so to 90 bushels day.
9Th But the most wonderful performance Of
this curious machine is the fact that 1t shells Wet
and Green corn, just as easily as Dry corn
9TH. This is the only machine that will select
and shell corn fol- seed, without injury to the
grain.

Democrat.
In the course of tilt against the policy of
the American party as regards Roman
Catholicism and the ends at which that
Church aims, the Editors of the Hampstead
Democrat say:
"If Roman Catholicism is an error, the
only way under heaven whereby We can sup
press it, is by appealing not to the prejudi-
ces and passions of the people, but to the
quick discrimination of their enlightened
Judgement
Having referred to facts in support of the
positions which we assumed last week in
regard to the Romish institutions, We said:
I'VE appeal to every man to know wbeth-
er such is not the inevitable tendency of
the supremacy of this NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
in view of these openly declared intentions,
it is not the duty of the American people
to declare. by the quiet and effective exer-
else of their inalienable right of suffrage,
that no temporary success, no matter how
highly priced. should be purchased at the
price of tacit recognition of the Justice of
these insoleDt claims of foreign despot-
ism?''
VIII the astute editors of the Democrat
be pleased to point out the distinctive diff
ference, between the means which we pro-
posed to employ. to remedy an evil, and the
plan which they suggest?
