- LNITIfD STATES AND FOREIGN
PATENT AGENCY.
Messrs. BROWN, COOMBS it CO., Proprio
tors of the AMERICAN ARTISAN, offer their
best services to inrentors, as Solicitor# of Ameii
can mid Foreign Patents. Mr. Hs.miy T Hitowx,
of this Bern, has had more than t ire nt y- two years'
experience in that prefession. both la this country
and Europe; for lilteen years lie was tbe principM
professional assistant of Messrs. Mttxtr & Co ,
Patent Agent# of this city ; aud his long practice
lias made Inin personally known tb thousandaof in
ventors and patentees. The iippiieatiooa for the
patent# upon many of the greau-r aud more im
portant inventions ol thopresent cenniry have been
prepared by him. Messrs. Httowu.Coombs &. Co.,
are Ihoronghly familiar with allJim. rules and re
gulationsi hmtiiutcd for the rapid tiiinsaction of
Jtiudnera with tbe United States I > ateul..<)fiice, and
the general practice in the Patent Bnretuu of vari
ous European countries; and this knowledge ren
ders them confident that tln-ir fsist experience, with
their present nneqnaled facilities, enables them to
ehtborately ami yet speedily prepare till the docu
ments required by law in applications for patents,
and Io promise their clients an absolute certainty
</»r<cceK»in theirjeffm ts to,ol>tuiiiJLeUei»i,l’al#»il foT
inventions tliat aie really new ami asefiil. Parti
cnlar sure is given to tbe execution ol'tlte accurate
.trawinijs wim h must always accompany every
application for apaleht,imd ilicy employ none blit
tbe most efficient dranglit#meii. The best evidence
of the manner in which JJeSwra. BlloWx, Coombs
S- Co.'s business is performed, is, that the “Amer
ican Artisan PatsSt Aoency,” during the three
years of its existence, has been the most successful
in ststiUwn of the kind ever established.
The priiicipul offices of Messrs. Brown. Coombs
&. Co. are situated at Iffil Broadway,opposite John
street, New York, in tlie most central part of the
city. This location is one of very easy access by
stranger# inasmuch as it is within a stone's throw
from the City Hall. All inventors temporalily so
joqrning iu the metropolis are invited to visit lliis
establishment. I iijfhe majority of iustuuceno model
or drawing of tin invention will be necessary on
the first interview, as a mere oral description by
the visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey sucn
aknowlwlge ofhhs invention as will enable Messrs.
Brown, Coomh# & Co. to definitely determine
whether a mm-bine or process is new or old—paten
table or not. The office hours will be from 9 a.m.
to 5 r. M.
Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co. are prepared to
furnish' to persons residing at a distance from New
York—free of charge— written opinions as to
whether inventions contain any features of paten
table novelty; to do thia they simply require a
eketali or rough model of the maebiue or otlwr in
vention that is supposed to be new, together with
u brief description of the same, and as soon as pos
sible therealler a letter of the best advice is mail
ed to the person desiring the information. These
opinions are formed from their own mature exper
ience; but if an inventor desires to know, positively,
whether liis incipient idea has ever been embodied
id a machine or process already patented, his wisest
entiree will be to have a preliminary examination
made at the United States Patent office by Messrs,
Brown, Coombs & Co., who will make a special
all the records of that institution, and
then promptly forward a full and carefully written
report as to the patentability of the invention uu
d«r examination. For this labor tho small fee of
$5 is payable in advance; and the remittance
should tm accompanied by a sketch of tho invention
and a few lines of writing describing the same,
and distinctly stating those points of novelty which
the inventor desires to have protected by Letters-
Patent
Patents for new aud useful inventions are now
granted for the term of seventeen years. The
first instalment oQtlie Govenunenv lee is sls, which
sum—together with fifty cents revenue stamp-tax
outlie power of-attorney— is payable tn advance,
on applying for the patent; and S2O additional are
dm-1« the Government when the Letters-Patent are
allowed. The Agency fee is from $25 upward, ac
cording to the labor involved; but m all cases our
elmigcs will be as moderate as possible in the pre
partition of drawings and all necessary documents.
This fee is not payable until -after the application
has been prepared and the case is ready to be sent
to Washington. Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co.
have a branch in Washington bo that all applica
tions made through them can have every necessary
attention in their passage through the Patent Office.
Inventors applying for patents mnst furnish
models of their machines, whenever possible, for
the inspection of the Examiners iu the Patent
(Hike ; but if the invention is a chemical composi
tion, samples of all the ingredients will be neces
sary. Each 6f these should be marked with the in
ventor's name! then carefully boxed, and sent, (by
ex press, prepaid), together with the first instahucn
oftlie Government fee,to Messrs Brown, CooSibs
tie. C<>. When the model is small and light, it can
be conveniently mid cheaply sentby mail Tbe
model must not exceed one foot in any of itsdimeus
jons, (Inlet* it n< of such a cbaractqr that it is im
praKicablt'.
Patents, except those for designs, mo granted'
ou equal terms to < it izons and ail foreigners, except
inhabitmits of Canada aud some other# of the
British Americjiu Provinces.
Besides patents or new and nsefit, inventions,
there are also granted patents for tiesigns.
Design-patents tire not now, as formerly, limited
strictly !♦> .or’mune.ntal conliguratien-, but under
Section II of the Act of March 2,18(11, any new
form of any article, orany impression or A</mc upon
the surface of any article or material, by whatever
mean# ovproccst" produced, etui !>c patented. Un
der this Act, patentees are entitled to the exten
sion of their respective patents for the term of seres
years from lite day on which said patents shall ex
pire, upon the same terms and restrictions as are
now provided forthe extensions of Letters Patent.
Among the numerous subjects sot patents of this
Has# may be purlicntiii-ly mentioned—castings of
all (Petals, patt# of machines, household finniinre
ami utensils; glnsswat-e, hardware of nil kinds,
cornices, and other interior and exterior decorations
of Imihiings; also, design# for woven tlnd. printed

nesigiai tiro retfn'uVd . bnt duplicate drawings or
photographs must be furnished- The specification
to accompany tire drawings or photographs re

reaKthis.
New Albany, Ind., March 12, 1867.
For forty yean I have been afflicted with
costiveness, and for the last twenty was com
pelled daily to resort to injections to secure
an evacuation. In December last I com
menced the use of Radway’s Pills. After
taking a few doses, my liver, stomach, and
bowels were restored to their natural strength
and duties. I have now a regular movement
once a day, and, although 80 years of age,
feel as hearty and strong as I did 40 years
»go,

HIGH ENDORSEMENT FROM THB
MEDICAL COLLEGE OF PRUSSIA.
DR. RAD WA Y
I* in receipt of an important official docu
ment, signed by the Professors of th*
Medical College of Breslau, Prussia,
embodying the result of an
analysis of
BADWAY’S REGULATING PILLS.
“ The Faculty of the College state in their
report that after a careful and minute examinee
lion, they have the honor to state that “th*
pills are not only free fr<sm every substance
injurious to health, but are composed wholly
of substances and elements promotive of
digestion, and certain at the same time to
. act favorably upon the nervous system, Ac.,
&c. They state, further, that the iqjuriou*
rumors set afloat by the Prussian apothe
caries originated “in a mean spirit of trad*
jealousy, excited by the great celebrity at
tained by the Pills within a very brief
period.”
Signed on behalf of the College,
DB. PHIL. THEOBALD WEBNER,
Dfesdsr of the Polytechnic Bureau.
DR. HESSE, First Auutant.
INDIGESTION I
In cases where natural evacuations ar*
difficult to secure, and a quick discharge is
essential, take six of Radway’s Pills and pul
verize them, —take the pill powder in water
or preserves,—in halt’ an hour they will ope
rate. We have known the most distressing
pains of Gastritis, Bilious Cholic, Inflamma
tion, Congestion, &c.,. stopped, and the re
tained irritating humors expelled from th*
bowels in thirty minutes by this treatment.
It is however, better in chronic cases to take
the pills as they are, and let them gradually
dissolve in the stomach. These Pills posses*
in the highest degree cathartic, aperient,
tonic, and diaphoretic properties. They do
do not weaken or debilitate the system or
any of its organs, and will leave the bowels
regular and healthy. They purify and equal
ize the circulation of the blood. No conge*-
tion or inflammation will occur,while th*
system is under their influence.'* Price 24
cant* per box, or 5 boxes for on* dollar.
