PATENT AMALGAMATING RIFLES
Patent Issued March lst. 1850.

Patent Issued March 1st. 1859.
The invention consists of forcing Quicksilver into
blocks of wood, which are used false bottoms for
sluiees, thereby giving Quicksilver surface until
the blocks worn out. As the blocks gradu
ally worn by the gravel, fresh supply of Quicksil-
yer is constantly exposed, ready TO amalgamate the
gold that comes in contact with them.
The machines for forcing Quicksilver into the
blocks, are of sim pie construction and durable. On
man press in one hundred pounds of Quicksilver
in day, which will give a hundred feet of Quick
silver surface, and the process is easily learned.
The shop cost of the machines, are from Sl4 to
500 according to size.
The following letters from practical Miners at
Michigan Bluffs, Placer County, where the PAT
ENT RIFLES were first introduced, will show
the estimation in which they are held by those who
have used them;
MICHIGAN BLUFFS, March osth, 80.
Mr. Briggs, Sir, l have used your Patent Quick
silver Block Rifles, and consider them the best
method for saving fine gold ever used. used them
on the American River this last summer, and found
that by using them, could save one-fourth more
gold than by any other Rifles now''n use. Hoping
that your Rifles will be extensively introduced
throus hout the State, and meet with the success
they deserve. Iremain yours truly.
GEORGE L. BENxEr,
MICHIGAN BLUFFS, April 9th '59
Mr.. Briggs, Sir. 1 have used your patent ANAL
gamating Rifle and am satisfied that it is a good
Invention; we nave clcahed up more ana nner gold
than we ever did before in the same length of time.
There has not been much wash running in the
gulch as there will be by and by, the boys have
not commenced washing pay dirt yet.
Yours truly,
CHAS. W. COOK.
I am now for the first time, trying to introduce
the AMALGAMATIyG RIFLE into the mines gener-
ally. After being thoroughly convinced of its uti
ity and practicabty, l prepared to fill
orders for all parties that may wish to use it, on
very REASONABLE TERMS,

HENRY CLAY ON "PopuLAR SOVEREIGNTY"
In 1887, Henry Clay introduced into the
United States Senate the following resolu-
ton, which was warmly supported by Benton,
Calhoun, and Silas Wright:
Resolved, That any attempt Of Congress
to abolish slavery in Territory of the Unit,
ed States in which it exists, would create
serious alarm and just apprehension in the
States sustaining that domestic institution;
would be a violation Of good faith towards
the inhabitants of any such Territory, who
have been permitted to enter with and hold
slaves therein, and because when any such
Territory shall be admitted into the Union
as State, the people thereof shall be en-
entitled to decide that question exclusively
for themselves,
