C O E E q e p q n


co F f E E POT.
MAN Y modes have been adopted, and
1Vl ingenious contrivances brought forth,
particularly French ideas, for the prepara-
ton of Coffee for the Table--to make it pala-
table, healthy and economical. But the de-
sideratum-a Coffee Pot for the million-that
would never fail to yield good coffee, remain
ed to be produced by the never-failing Yam
kee Nation, and comes forth from Virginia
the Old Dominion-and hence the name it
bears.
PECULIAR ADVANTAGES.
The coffee made in this boiler is ALWAYS
palatable because there is no loss of the flavor
OF the coffee by evaporation, as in the ordi-
nary boiler, always healthy, because the bit
ter principle of the coffee is held in subiec-
ton to the aromatic, by means of the CON
denser; always economical, because being
boiled, the full strength of the grain is ex,
traeted-which is not the case with the ordi-
nary French strainer-the saving being from
rs to SO per cent.

Another Base Lie Nailed.

Another Base Lie Mailed!
The base lie, so effectually nailed to The
counter in the following communication,
first appeared in Gen. Burns home organ

the manliles; to do Mr. Helmick justice
and publish this refutation of the foul Sian.
der?
New PHILADELPHIA. o. Sept, 20, 1858
EDITOR PROGRESSIVE Ace Having
learned that some unprincipled politicians,
intending TO injure Mr.. Helmick in those
portions of this Congressional district where
his character for moral worth is not as well
known as it is in his own county, are cir
culating a report that Mr.. Helmick pecame
rich by dishonest administration of the es-
tate of the late Hon. John D. Cummings,
the undersigned who have personal knowl-
edge of said estate and who have examined
the public records of Mr.. Helmick's proceed
ings therein, do hereby publicly brand all
such charges and imputations against Mr.
Helmick as unfounded and base lies an d
ISLANDERS.
The following facts appear on record
and are admitted by all honorable men who
have any knowledge of the matter
Mr.. Cummings i'll the spring of A. D. 1916,
enlisted all his personal property in this
State for taxation under oath at S12, ,150,-
90, and died on the 10th nf September
following. Mr.. Helmick, being named by
Mr.. Cummings in his will one of his execu-
tors administered upon his personal estate
in this State, and has charged himself with
$14421,44. being S2,29l,4 "A, more than
Mr.. Cummings, three months before his
death had sworn he was worth This in
crease, in great measures is attributable
to Mr.. Helmick's careful administration of
assets that Mr.. Cummings had considered
worthless. The balance of Mr.. Cummings
personal estate, about 100000 was ad-
ministered in the state of Wisconsin, by the
other executor uamed in the will, with
whom, however Mr.. Helmick had no con-
nection. The real estate of Mr.. Cummings
was parlitioned by The heirs and never pass
ed into the hands of the executors. '=
Thus you will perceive, that, instead of
censure resting upon Mr.. Helmick, he de-
serves and receives great credit from all in
terested parties for the faithful discharge
of this trust.
For the truth of these statements, the under
signed do not only pledge their names, but
refer to the records of this county as well
as Mr.. Charles H. Mitchner, who was one
of the Attorneys for the heirs of Cumm-
ings.
This expose may be used in all proper
ways by the friends of truth, throughout
the district.

lsh ii. God only can do it when he repeals
The rat, "tl,c poor We always have with you |;

scarcely lives at that and who has put out
his labor IN the market and take the best
he can get for it; in short, your whole class

dation. Our slaves do not vote. We give
them no political power. Yours do vote,

positaries of all your political power"
For myself, l come before you, fellow
citizens, representing to the best of my
humble ability that portion of the public
sentiment which is opposed to the doctrine
that the constitution of the United States
carries slavery into all the Territories, op-
posed to the doctrine that there is no pow
er to prohibit slavery in the Territories, op-
posed TO the constant renewal of slavery
aggression and slavery agitation by the SO
called "National Democracy opposed to
the tyrannical and invidious policy which
would bring Territory into the Union un-
der pro-slavery constitution with $4,000
people and at the same time enact a law
practically prohibiting the same Territoty
from coming into the Union as a free State
until she could show population of over
$4,000. / claim also to represent that sem
timent which is opposed to the reckless ex-
trayagance of the present administration
which is rapidly increasing our debt and
impairing our credit.
Fellow citizens having made these candid
statements of facts, IL sustained them by
indubitable evidence, l leave you to make
your choice between Mr.. Burns and myself,
but remember when you reflect on the bro
ken pledges of Gen. Burns.

BURNS a Lecoinpton Man.

The following letter was picked up in
the streets of Ccshoeton few days since,
and handed to us to use rs We thought
proper. Mr.. Hill is Clerk in the Rirss
Auditors Office at Washington City; is a
Democrat, and speaks as though he under
stood how the Administration regarded
Gen. Burns on the Kansas q1esiion.
Gen. Burns is now telling the people
and his home organ and stump orators are
now telling the people-,hat he is an AN
TILECOMPTON man. They should be
ashamed to attempt 10 hoodwink the peo
pie, with such evidence as this staring them
in the face.
But We shall let the letter speak for it.

our Democratic friends doubt the genuine

DARE HE DENY Ir!-About the first of
April last, Judge John I. Simmons SAID
that "this wAole country aeould not be big
enough to bury Gen. Barns in" Mean
ing that so many would want to engage
in digging his political grave, that it would
take several counties to satisfy them.
The Judge was then an anti Lecompton
Democrat and was angry at Gen. Burus
because he had voted for the English swim
die and ruined the Democratic party. The
Judge is now wearing the collar, and suf-

1t will be seen by the above literal ex-
tract, that Gen. Burns was lawfully riled'

jected the odious Lecompton Constitution,
which the President and Gen. Burns at
tempted to impose upon them. The Gen.
voted with the South because he was mad
at the people of Kansas, did he? Are

pie into slavery, against their expressed

ADMISSION OF KANSAS.
Mr.. STEPHENS, of Georgia. Mr. Speaker
the hour of one having arrived, NOSE, in pur-
suanee of notice, TO take up the Senate bin 70,
the admission OF Kansas.

follows:
An act for the admission of the State of Kan
sas into the Union,
l. Mr.. GIDDINGS. l object to the BILL
The SPEAKER. The gentleman from Ohio
making objection o the bill, under the l16th

first be, "shall this bill be rejeeted?"
Mr.. STEPHENS, of Georgia, demanded the
yeas and nays.
The yeas and nays were ordered,
Mr.. JONES, of Tennessee called for the read
ing of the BILL
The bill was read, as follows:
The question was then taken; and resulted

y Nays-Messrs Adrain, Ahl, Anderson, Arm
cid, Atkins, Avery. Barksdale, Bishop, Bocock,

So the House rufused TO rejected the bill.
am informed that Gen. Burhs claims that the
bill for the admission of Kansas into the Union,
under the Lecompton Constitution, never was in
the House of Representatives, and that there
never was any direct vote taken in the House on
it SO thai he had opportunity to vote for it if
he had wished, -. --,.-
Now must confess that am at loss to con-
ceive how any vote could be more direct than
the one given above, SHALL THE BILL BE

If Gen. Burns was opposed to the bill, why
did he not vote to reject 1t? Instead Of so do
ing, he voted to accept it-and his vote stands
on record in the Congressional Globe hope
no one will hereafter have the temerity to de-
ny that he then and there voted directly in favor
