THIS new Coffee Pot, for which a patent has
1 been issued, possesses this advantage all
others you may boil coffee in it for any length of
time, without particle of the strength or aroma
escaping. One-fourth less coffee is required, and
the full flavor of the berry retained A large num-
Der of testimonials have been received from those
who have used it. We have space for only one :
THE OLD DOMINION COFFEE Por-We have
had in use now, for over two months, one of these
much-talked-of coffee pots, and We find that it
does in all respects, what is claimed for it. You
may boil coffee in the Old Dominion for any length
of time you choose and yet loose none of the deli
cate aroma strength. This desirable end is at
tanned by simple, but ingenious, continuance in
the shape of a condenser, with double syphons, by
means of which the aroma-bearing vapor, which
usually goes all over the house or up the chimney,
is condensed and thrown back into the coffee boil
err and you have its delicious flavor in the cup you
bring to your lips. In all our experience of cof-
fee-drinking, we never found anything equal to
what we now have daily at our morning meal. 1t
is the perfection Of Philadelphia Evening

/ have analysed for BR1scoE, H1LLEs & Co., of
Havre de Grace. Md, four samples of ''Susque-
hanna Limestone" from Wrightsvile, Pa, taken
from four different Quarries. They were fonnd
to be free of sand and other impurities, and to
contain, besides Carbonate of Lime, respectively
from 2 to Is per cent. Of Carbonate Of MAGNEsIA.
The former will be of general advantage to the
lower counties of Maryland, both on the Eastern
and Western Shores, and are especially adapted
to the application on "White Oak Sois.'' The
latter should be applied to soils which are def
cient in both Lime and Magnesia. They are, in
general, the s'VoIcanic Soils of the Upper, and
the light soils in the Tide Water Counties of

RURAL PROSPERITY.

We are almost persuaded that the late
panic was delusion; that it was only the
beginning of higher sphere. Surely,
the appearances of our farming nelghbor-
hoods warrant no belief in panics Break
ings, new Enclosures, new farms and homes
beset and bewilder us Oh every hand dur
ING our travels round The old roads
seem to have gone off into strange com
pany, having by their side new associations
fenced on either side and guarded ty
sentinels. The spaces of FIVE miles tween
farms are diminished to one or two miles,
even half mile One year ago, we knew
the roads everywhere and never asked the
road TO any point; now we meet confusion
on every hand. The new settlers, many
of them, are civil and polite, not having
been in the country long enough to be
otherwise; when we inquire the road they
say ''follow your nose" or fright about
face, forward march"-by which we under
stand them to be we'll drilled in such TIC
taos as putting strangers through in an or
derby manner. In many places they have
introduced new fashion 10 regard to roads
that we don't like 81. well; they close the
ends Of roads and appropriate the ground
for corn, and often change the road sites
down into hellows. The roads are the
Oldest settlers and ought not to be thus
driven off But, the old must give way tc
the new-the child having become father
to the parent. We suppose all is well.

DAMhGE AT CAIRO.

A correspondent of the Missouri Repub-
lican, writing from Cairo on the 7th, says
the reports of destruction by the flood there
have been greatly exaggerated. The av-
age depth Of water inside of the town was
about ten feet. None but the slight built
houses floated off, though among them is
mentioned the Jail. The highest location
in town was seven feet under water. None
of the Illinois Central Railroad track, ex-
cept about the length of a rail has been
carried away. The account further says, sit
is believed by persons competent to judge
that the subsistence of the waters will leave
a deposit of eighteen inches in the town,
which will do much for compromising for
the damage" At this rate, it will take
only about six such floods to raise the town
site Of Cairo above the height Of the pres
emit rise. The Agent talks very cheerful
ly about the prospects of the town. 1t
was sixteen foot levee where the break
occurred, and the crevasse was about $50
feet in length and 10 feet deep. The fol-
lowing concludes the communication:
The Cairo Company have plenty of
money, and mean to spend it freely in
making Cairo substantial and permanent
hereafter.
P.S. Many of the bodies in the old
graveyard, at "Graveyard RIDGE" have a.
risen, and are floating around.

THE CRISIS FAILING AWAY.

The several stages, incident to all mon
etary panics that history furnishes any
account of, or that memory brings to
mind, have appeared and passed by IN
fast uccessien-except one or Two re-
naming stages. First, the period OF crazy
speculation when everybody stopped work
and set up living from bankrupt store Of
wits. then the crash and break down Of
hanks. manufacturers, mercantile houses
great and small, and reduction OF leO
per cent. in prices; then came the PERIOD
of stagnation or stand still, when there was
a pause, sober pause, deep melancholy
over the ruins of fallen fortunes, with Its
usual accomplishments Of suicide, religious
awakening and solemn thoughts OF GOD
and that God rules our destinles, even
though men think they are the architects
of their own fortunes; then followed ths
period Of final payment-making our prop
erty not worth the interest paid on the
money borrowed for making such 4
nal payments. Finally, month ago.
commenced the period of restoration; this
is the period reigning at present, and 1t
NAV reign for several months or until con-
fdencs of man towards man is reasonably
restored. In this period, money Will come
down and prices will be restored to uni
formity; land and farm property, the last
10 rise and last to fall in crisis, Will ar
rive at their lowest, and stand there for
some months, perhaps year or two
There may be a short period OF relapse
backward wave, but it will be feeble;
money is piling up in safes in city and
country and must flow out. The west Is
drawing on the east, heavy and money is
daily arriving for assistance of western
men-by draft and by express. Conh-
dence is recovering fast.

TWO LITTLE BOYS DROWNED
June 10th 1858.

Mr.. ED1roR:-I hasten to send you by
the first mail the following accident:
Near Mifflin, Iowa County, on Sunday,
June Is, three little boys aged about
seven, nine and eleven, sons of John Ed
wards were playing by pond near their
fathers dwelling. The two Oldest conclu-
ded as their father and mother were gone
from home-they would take that oppor
tunity to have battle in the pond. They
had not been in the water long before the
youngest approached the stream that pas
sed through the pond, got into deep wa
ter suddenly and was unable to get out
The older brother hasted to help him but
found it as much as he could do to
save himself; he however done his best,
but finding his strength almost gone he
struggled for the shore. But his little
brother on the shore urged him to 60
back and save if possible his drowning
brother. He returned grasping him once
more, soon their strength become exhaus-
ted and both sunk to rise no more until
taken out sleeping in the arms of death.
AS | stood by the grave side yesterday
and looked upon the almost heart-broken
parents gazing for the last time upon these
two well grown lovely boys whose cheeks
the day before glowed with health |
thought surely this world is vale of tears
