RKPCIRtaICAN PUTFOUM.
The National Republican parly of the United States,
:u>sembled in National Convention, in the city of Chi
cago, on the 20th day of May, 1868, make the following
Declaration of Principles -.
Ist. We congratulate the country on the assured suc
cess of the reconstruction policy of Congress, as
evinced by the adoption, in a majority of the States
lately in rebellion, of Constitutions securing equal civil
and political rights to all, and regard it as the duty of
the Government to sustain tls.se institutions, and to
prevent the people of such States from being remitted
to a state of anarchy.
2d. The guarantee, by Congress, of equal suffrage to
all loyal men to the South was demanded by every con
sideration of public safety, of gratitude and of justice,
and must be maintained, while the question of suffrage
in all the loyal States properly belongs to the people of
those States. .
3d. We denounce all forms of repudiation as a na
tlonal crime, and the national honor requires the pay
ment of the public indebtedness, in the utmost good
faith, to all creditors,-at home and abroad, not only
according to the letter, but the spirit of the laws
tiudtr which it was contracted.
4th. It is duo to,tee labor of the nation that taxation
should be equalized aiid reduced as rapidly as the na
tional faith will permit.
Sth. The national debt, contracted, as it has been, lor
the preservation of the Union for ill time to emit,
should be extended over a fair period for redemption,
and it is the duty of Congress to reduce the rate of in
terest thereon, Whenever it ran honestly be done.
6th. That the best policy to diminish our burden of
deto. is to so improve our credit that capitalists will seek
to loan us money at jwsr pates of interest than we now
pay, and must continue to pay, so long as repudiation,
parilaf or total, open or covert, is threatened or sus
pected.
7th. The Government of the United States should be
administered with the strictest economy, and the cor
ruptions which have been so shamefully nursed and
fostered by Andrew Johnson call loudly for radical re
form.
Bth. We profoundly dtqitorc the untimely and tragic
death of Abraham Lincoln, and regret the accession of
Andrew Johnson to the Presidency, who has acted
treacherously to the people who elected him and the
cause he was pledged to support; has usurped high
legislative and judicial functions; has refused tv exe
cute the laws; has used his high office to induce other
officers to ignore and violate the laws; has employed
his executive powers to render insecure the property,
peace, liberty and life of the citizen; has abused the
pardoning power; has denounced the National Legisla
ture as unconstitutional; has persistently and corruptly
resisted, by every measure in his pow er, every proper
attempt at the reconstruction of the States lately in re -
bellion; has perverted the public patronage tote an
engine of wholesale corruption; and has been justly
impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and
properly pronounced guilty thereof by at- vote of
thirty-five Senators.
9th. The doctrine of Great Britaitrand other European
powers, that because a man is once a subject, be is
always so, must be resisted at every hazard by the
United States, as a relic of the feudal time, not author-,
iced by the law of nations, awl at war with our national
honor and Independence. Naturalized eitiaens are enti
tled to be protected to all their rights of citizenship as
though they were natural bom, and no citizen of the
United States, native or naturalized, must be liable to
arrest and imprisonment, by any foreign power, for acts
done, or words spoken, to this country, and if so arrested
and imprisoned, it is the duty of the Government to
interfere In his behalf. .
10th. Os all who were faithful in the trials of the late
war, there were none entitled to more especial honor
than the brave soldiers and seamen, who endured the
hardships of the campaign and cruise, and imperilled
their lives in the service of tho country. The bounties
and pensions provided by law tor these brave defenders
of the nation are obliagtions never to be forgotten. The
widow s and orphans of the gallant dead are the wards of
the people, a sacred legacy bequeathed to the natlon'z
protecting care.
11th. Foreign inmigration, which in the past has
added so much to the wealth, development of respnrees,
and increase of power of this nation, the asylum of the
oppressed of all nations, shonld be fostered and encour
aged by a liberal and Jost policy.
12th. This Convention declares Us sympathy with all
the oppressed people which are struggling for their
right*-

ALMOST EVERY CASE
CURED WITH
PAIN KILLER.
o
Read the following letter from
Rev. R. Telford, Missionary iu .China, uow
visiting his home in Pennsylvania:
Washington, Pa., Juno2s, I81i(>.
Messrs. Perry Davit & Son, Providence, R. 1.:
Dear Sirs —During a residence of some ten
years as a Missionary in Siam and China, I found
your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable
remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera.
In administering the medioine, 1 foend it most
effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain Killer iu a
gill of hot water sweetened with sugar; then,
after about fifteen aiinutea, begin to give a table
spoonful ot the same mixture every minute until
relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to
the extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain
Killer, clear and rub the limbs briskly. Ol those
who had the cholera, ami took the medicine faith
fully iu the way stated above, eight out of tea
recovered. Yours, truly,
R Telford.
If an attack with Diarrhttot, Dysentery, or
Cramp Colic, don’t delay the use of the Pain
Killer. Sold by all medicine dealers Price, 25
cents, 50 cents, and $1 per bottle.
• ■ ~. I -
Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,18f>(i.
Gentlemm — * * * 1 want to say a little
more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a very
valuable medicine, ,aud always keep it on hand.
I have travelled a good deal since 1 have been in
Kansas, and never without taking it with me.
In my practice 1 used it freely for the Asiatic
Cholera, in 1819, ami with better success than any
other medicine ; 1 also used it here for cholera iu
1855, with the same goad result.
Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. D.
. Swatu, China.
Cholcia! * * * I regret to say that the
cholera has prevailed here of late to a tearful
extent. For the last three weeks, from ten to
titty or sixty fatal cases each day has been re
ported. I snould add that the Pain Killer, sent
recert(ly trom the Mission House, has been used
with success during this epidemie.
If taken in season is generally enectnal iu check
ing Ute disease,
Rev. CHARLES HARDINIG.
Sliolapore, India.
[From the Portland Monthly !
Summer Complaint and Dysentery.
Bowel complaints seem"jnst now to be the
prevailing element, and any medicine that is
everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable, is a
very desirable acquisition. From what we have
seen, beard, and experienced, we believe Davis'
Pain Killer is thia desideratum. For the best
method of using it, we quote from the directions:
“For common bowel complaints, give one tea
spoonful in iif-ill of new milk' and molasses, in
eqnal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose
for children, according to the age. If the pain be
severe, bathe the bowels and b;u:k with tho medi
cine. This mode of treatment is good in cases of
the cholera morbus, sadden stoppages, etc. Re
peat the dose every hour.
“The quickest way I ever saw the dysentery
cured was'by taking one spoonful of the Pain
Killer in one gill of milk and molasses stirred
well together and drank hot. at the same time
bathing the bowels freely witA medicine. Let
the dose lie repealed every hour until the pafient
is relieved.’’
If every person who has reason to fear this
disease would provide themselves with a bottle
of this mediehie, and use as. occasion required, vre
believe a great amount of' Suffering and sickness,
would bo saved. je!2—2a>

The American Artisan
UNITED STATES AND FOREIGN
PATENT AGENCY
Messrs. BROWN, COOMBS fc CO., Proprie
tors of the AMERICAN ARTISAN, offer their
best services to inventors, as Solieitort of Ameri
can aud Foreign Patents. Mr. HksrvT.Brown,
of this firm, lias had more than tmntyrim years’
experience in that prefeseion, both ta this country
■nd Europe; for fifteen years he Was the principal
professional assistant of Messrs. Munk & Co.,
Patent Agents of this city; and his long practice
has made him personally known to tbonsamlsof in- ’
ventors aud patentees. The anplicatioos for the
patents upon many of the greater and more im
portant inveutions'of the present century have been
prepared by him. Messrs. Brown, Coobss de. Co.,
are thoroughly familiar with all the rales and re
gulations instituted for the rapid traneiictfon of
business with the United States Patent Office, and
the general practice in the Patent Bureaus of vari
ous European countries; and this knowledge ren
ders them confident that iheirpost experience, with
their present unequaled facilities, enables them to
elaborately and yet speedily prepare all the docu
ments required by law in applications for patents,
and to promise their clients an absolute certainty
ofniccessin theirjefl'orts toj>btahi[Letter<l>atent for
hiventious that are really new and ueeftif. Parti
cular care is given to the execution of the accurate
drawings which must always accompany every
application for a patent, and they employ none but
the most efficient draiightemon. The beet evidence
of the manner iu which Messrs. BboWn, Coombs
& CflFs buslnlma is performed, ie, that the “Amer
ican Artisan Patent Agknct,” during the three
years of its existence, hue been Ike most successful
institution of the kind ever established.
The principal offices of Messrs. Baotvw.Coombs
fc Co. are sitnated at 189 Broadway, opposite John
street, New-York, in the most central part of the
city. This location is one of very easy aceess by
strangers, inasmuch as it is within a stone's throw
from tho Uity Hall. All inventors temporarily so
jouruing iu the metropolis are invited to visit this
establishment. In|t he majority of instance no model
or drawing of an invention will be necessary on
the iir?t interview, as a mere oral description by
the visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such
aknowleiige of his invention as will enable Messrs.
Brown, Coombs &. Co. to definitely determine
w hether a mac hi ne or process is new or old—paten -
table or not. The office hours will be from 9a. m,
to 5 r. M.
Messrs. Brown, Coombs &Uo. 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 ppton-.
table novelty; to do thia they simply require a
sketch or rough model of the machine or other in
vention that is supposed to be Hew, together with
a brief description of the same, and as soon as pos
sible thereafter 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 desi res to know, positively,
whetlier his incipient idea has ever been embodied
in a machine or process already patented, Ji» wisest
course will be to have a preliminary examination
made at the United States Patent office by Messrs.
Brown, Coombs & Co., who will make a special
search[amoug all lhe records of that institution, and
then promptly forward a fol! and carefully written
re;>ort as to the patentability of the invention un
der examination. For this labor the small fee of
$5 is ;«yab!e in advance; and tbe remittance
should be accompanied by a sketch of the invention
aud a few lines of writing describing the same,
and distinctly stating those points of novelty which
the inventor desires to have protected by tetters-
Patent.
Patents for new aud useful inventions are now
granted for the term, of skvkntein tears. The
firetinstalment oljthe Government lee is |ls, which
sum—together with fifty cents revenue stamp-tax
on the power-of-attorney— is payable in advance,
ou applying for tbe patent; and S2O additional are
due to the Government when the Letters-Patent are
allowed. The Agency fee is from >25 upward, ac
cording to tlie labor involved; bat in aft cases our
charges will be as moderate aa possible.iu lhe pre
mi ration of drawings and all necessary docutaents.
This lea is not payable until after the application
has been prepared and the case is ready to be sent
to Washington. Messrs. BboWN. Coombs &. Co.
have a ftranc&ia Washington so thataH applica
lions made th rough them can have every neceesary
attention iu their passage through the Patent Office.
Inventors allying for patents must furnish
moilils of their machines, whenever possible, for
the inspection of the. Examiners in the Patent
Office; but if the invention is a chemical compqsi
tion, samples of all the ingredients will be neces
sary. Each of these should he marked with the in
ventor's name, then carefully boxed, and sent (by
express, prepaid), together with the first instalnien
of the Government fee, to Messrs B rOwn , Coom bs
&. Co. When the model is small and light, it can
be conveniently and cheaply sentby mad The
model must not exceed one loot in any of itsdimens
ions, unless His of such a character that itisim
practicaMe.
Patents, except' those for designs; areygranted
ou equablerms to citizens aud all foreigners, except
inhabitants of Canada and some others of the
British American Provinces.
Besides patents or new and usefu. inventions,
there are also granted patents for desflhis.
Design-patents are not now, as formerly, limited
strictly to ornamental configuration ; but under
Section 11 of the Act of March 2,1861, any new
)orm of any article, oranj impressionotjigure open
th? surface of any article or material, by whatever
means or process produced, can be patented. Un
der this Act, patentees are entitled to the exten
sion es their res|>ecti ve patents for the term of seven
years from tbe day on which said patents shall ex
pire, npon the same terms and restrictions as are
now provided for the extensions of Letters-Patent.
Among tlie numerous subjects for patents of this
class may be particularly mentioned—castings of
all metals, parts of machines, household furniture
aud utensils; glassware, hardware Os all kinds,
cornices,and olherinterior and exterior decorations
of buildings; also, designs for woVeUand printed
fabrics, dress and upholstery trimmings, and har
ness labels and trade marks for medicines, per
fumery, mid all preparations, compositions, or
tuerchandite, put up in boUlee, boxes, or other
packages, are suitable subjects; plso, the forms of
such bottles, boxes, or packages themselves, and
envelopes, likewise all works of art, as stetnary,
busts, compositions in alto or basso-relievo.Tbe
Government fee on a design patent for 3} years is
$10; 7 years, sls; 14 years, S3O. No models of
ac.signs are required ;. but duplicate drawings or
photographs must be furnished- Tha speeifß-atiou
to accompany the drawings or photograms re
quires to be prepared with great car*. Messrs
Brown, Coombs St, Co. give very particuhir at
teutiou to this branch of their business. Their
charge for preparing applications for design patents
is generally about |ls. Design patents qre only
granted to American citizensor to aliens Who have
resided one year in the United States and made
oath of their intention to tacome citizens thereof.
The facilities of Messrs. Brown., Coombs A- Co
for obtaining patents in tbe various European
constiies are equal if not sui>erior to those of any
other in tlie United States. With regard to their
qualitiimtioue for such business, it need only be
stated that Mr. Brown, while with Messrs. Munn
& Co. aud in bis previous practice, and since the
establishment of the “AM XRtc an A rt isan Pat ent
AuxNct,” has had the preparation of more E,aro
p«wi applications than My other person In this
country, Messrs Brown, Coombs A Go., besides
having a branch oficein Wa4Hl«#t», havetheir
own agencies in the principal capitals of Europe.
A circular relating to foreign patent business will
