Bryant, Chairman Republican Committee Fifth Congressional District. REPUBLICAN PI.ATEORM. The National Republican party of the United States, assembled in National Convention, in the city of Chi cago, on the 29th day of Stay, 1868, make the following Ueclafation of Principles : Ist. We congratulate the country on the assured suc cess of tlie 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 those institutions, nnd 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 in the South was demanded by every coa sideration of public safety, of gratitude and of justice, and must be maintained, while the question of sunrage In all the loyal States properly belongs to the people of those States. 3d. We denounce all forms of repudiation as a na tional crime, nnd the national honor requires the pay ment of the public indebtedness, in the utmost good faith, to all creditors, at home and abroad, not onlj according to the letter, but the spirit of the laws under which it was contracted. 4th. It is due to the labor of the nation that taxation should bo equalized and reduced as rapidly as the na tional faith will permit. sth. The national debt, crAitracted, as it has been, ler the preservation of tbe Union for all time to come, 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 can honestly be done. iith. That die best policy to diminish our burden of debt is to so Improve qur credit that capitafirtß will seek to loan ;>s money at lower rates of interest than we now pay, aud must continue to pay, so long as repudiation, partial or total, open or covert, is threatened or sus pected. 7th. The Government of the United States should be ' administered with the strictest economy, aud the cor ruptions which have been so shamefully nursed and fostered by Andrew Johnson call loudly forTZdkal re form. • . Sth. We profoundly deplore 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 to 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 tho citizen; has abused the pardoning power; has denounced the National Legisla ture as unconstitutional; has persistently and corruptly resisted, by every measure in his power, every proper attempt at the of the States lately in re bellion; has public patronage into an engine of wholesale corruption; and has been justly impeached tor high crime* and misdemeanors, and properly pronounced guilty thereof by the vote of thirty-five Senators. 9th. The doctrine of Great Britain and other European powers, that because a man is once a subject, tie is always so, must be resisted at every hazard by the United States, as a relic of the feudal time, not author ized by the law of nations, and at war with our national honor aud independence. Naturalized citizens are enti tled to be protected in all their rights of citizenship as though they were natural bom, and no citizen of the United States, native or naturalized, must bo liable to arrest and imprisonmonl, by any foreign power, for ac,ts done, or words spoken, in this country, and if so arrested and imprisoned, it is the duty of the Government to Interfere in hi* behalf. 10th. Os all who were faithful tn the trials of the late war, there were none entitled to more especial honor than tlie brave soldiers and seamer., 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 for these brave defenders of tbt nation are obliagtions never to be forgotten. The widows and orphans of the gallant dead are the wards of tbe people, a sacred legacy liequeathed to th* nSion’s protecting care. 11th. Foreign immigration, which in the past ha* added so much to the wealth, development es roeource.s, and Increase of power of this nation, the asylum of tlie oppressed of ;dl nations, should be festered and encour aged by » liberal and just policy. 12th.' This Convention declares its sympathy with all tlie people which are strugg!%g for their 11 PAINTER & FINCH, * BUILDERS AND CONTRACTORS. Manufacturers of sash, bllnds and Doors.

Missionary iu China, now visiting his home In Pennsylvania: Washington, Pa., Jun 025,1866. Messrs. Perry Davisdb Hou, Providence,R. I.: Dear Sirs—During a resilience of some tee years as a Missionary in Siam and China, I found your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable remedy for that fearful soonrge, the Cholera. In administering the medicine, I found it most effectual to give a teaspoOnful of Pain Killer in a gill of hot water Sweeten'd with sugar; tlien, after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table spoonfnl of 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. Os those who had the cholera, and took the medicine faith fully in the way stated above, eight out of ten reeoverad. Yonrs, truly, K TELFORD. If an attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or Cramp Colic, don't delay the use of the Pain Killer. Sold by all medicine dealers. Price, 25 cents, 59 cents, and SI per bottle, .Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866. G'enltemen— * * ” I want to say a little more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a very valuable medicine, aud always keep it on haml I have travelled a good deal since I nave been in Kansas, and never without taking it with mo> In my practice I used it freely for the Aeiatis Cholera, in 1819, and with better success than any other medicine; 1 also used it here for cholera in 1855, with the same goad result. IrTtly, yonrs, A. HUNTING, M. I). Swato, China. Cholera ’ * * * I regret to say that the cholera has prevailed here of late to a fearful extent. For the last three weeks, from ten to fifty or sixty fatal cases each day has been re ported. I should add that the Pain Killer, sent recently from the Mission House, has been used with considerable success during this epidemic. If taken In Season is generally effectual in eheck, ing tlio disease. Revi CHARLES IIARDINIG, [ Bholapore, India. [From the Portland Monthly.! Summer Complaint and Dysentery. Bowel complahrte seem just now to be tho prevailing element, and any medicine that i| everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable, is a very desirable acquisition. From what wehavo seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davis' Pain Killer is thia desideratum. For tho best method of using it, we quote from the directions: “For common bowel complaints, give one tea spoonful in a gill of new milk and molasses, iu equal parts, sth-red well together; lessen the does tor children, according to the age. If the pain ba severe, bathe the bowels and back with the medi cine. This mode of treatment is good in cases of the cholera morbus, sudden stoppages, etc. Re peat the dose every hour. “The quietest way I ever saw the dysentery cured was by taking one spoonful of the Paid Killer in one' gill of milk and nwlasoes stirred well together and drank hot, at f!ie same time bathiug the bowels freely with medicine. Let the dose be repeated every hour until the patient is relieved.” If every person who has reason to fear this disease would provide themselves with a bottle of this medicine, and use as occasion required, we believe a great amount of suffering and sicknesq would he saved. iel2 —2m Special Notice.

BhoWn, of this firm, has had more than twenly-lwo years’ experience in that profession, both in this country and Europe; for fifteen years principal professional M»i»taut of Messrs. Mun a & Co., Patent Agent* of this city; and his long practice lies made him personally known to thousands of in ventors and patentees. The applications for the patents upon many of tho greater and more im portant inventions of the present century have been prepared by him. Messrs. Brown, Coombs A; Co., ara thoroturhlv familiar with all the rules and re gulations instituted for the rapid tiansartioi* .of business with the United States Patent Office, and the general practice in the Patent Bureau* of vari ous European countries; and this knowledgeren ders them confident tliat their post experience, with their present uneq naled facilities, enables them to elaborately and yet speedily prepare all the docu ments required by iaw in applications for qnteufe, and to promise their clients an absolute certainly oftuccessin. theirjefforts for inventions that Me realjy new and useful Parti cular care is given to the execution of the accurate drawings which must always accompany every application for a patent, aud they employ none but the most efficient draughtsmen. The best evidence of the manner iu which Messrs. Bkown, Coombs & Co.’s business is performed, is, that the "Amur ican Artisan Patkmt Agency,” during the three • years of its existence, hat been the most successful insMuiiou of Ike kind ever sstablisked. Tlis principal offices of Messrs. Brown. Coombs & Co. are situated at 18’J Broadway, opposite John street, New York, in the most central part of the city. This location is one of very easy access by strangers, inasmuch as it is with to a stone's throw from the City Hall. All inventors temporarily so journing in the metropolis are invited to visit this establishment. Injtheinejorfty of instance no model or drawing of an invention willbe necessary on the first interview, as a mere oral description by the visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such akuowledge of bis invention as will enable Merefe. Bkown, Coombs &. Co. to definitely detenuioe whethera machine or process is new or old—paten table or not. Tbe office hoars will lie from ft A. m . to 5 r. m. Messrs. Brown, Coombs &■ Co, are prepared to furnish to persons residing at a <Estance from New York—free of charge— written ofnnions as <4o whether taventiOnscoutain any leatnresof paten table, novelty; to do thia«lbey aimfoy require a sketch or rough model of the machine or other in vention that is supposed to be new, together wilTi a brief description of the same, and as soon Us skis si bio thereafter a letter of the best advice, is mail ed to the person desiring the information. These opinions arc formed from their own mature exper fence; but ff an inventor desiresto know, positively, whether hia incipient uioa ba* ever been embodied toa nmcluuo or process already patented, liis wisest course will be to have a preliminary examination made at the United States Patent office by Mosers. Bkown, Coombs &. Co., who will make a special starclijamong all tire rewrite °I li l at institution, aud then promptly forward a full and careftilly written report as to tire patentability of the invention un - der examination. For this labor the.small fee of *5 i* payable u advance; aud- tbe lemittauce should be accompanied by a sketch of tho hiveiitioii 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- Pateut Patents for new and useful inventions are now Branted8 ranted for the term ofsKVKNTKxa years. The rstinstalment ofibe Government lee is sls, which sum—together with fifty cents revenue stamp tax outlie power-ofaitorney—is payable «» advance, on applying for the patent; and S2O additional are due to the Government when the Lettors-Patentare allowed. The Agency fee is from $25 upward, ac cording to the labor involved; but in all cases our charges will be as moderate as possible in the pre paration of drawings aud all necessary documenta. This fee is not payable until after the application has been prepared and the case is readv to be sent to Washington. Messrs. Brown, Coombs &• Co. have a 6rai«A in Washington so that ah applica tions made through them can have every necessary attention in their passage th rough tbe Patent Office Inventors applying for patents must furnish models of their machine*, whenever possible, for the iuspeetian of tlffi Examiners in tbe Patent Office; but if tho invflition is a chemical composi tion, samples of all the ingredients will be neces sary. Each of these should be marked with the fo ventor's name, then carefblly boxed, and sent (by ex press, prepaid) ,togetherwiththefirstinstalmeii ofthe Government fee, to Messrs BroWn , Coom ns &. Co. When tile model is small and fight, it can be conveniently and cheaply sentby mail The model must not exceed one foot iu any ofits diniejus ions, unless it is of such a character that itisim practicable. Patents, except those for designs, are granted ou equaldnrms to citizens und all foreigners, except inhabitants of Canada aud sonic others of (tie British American Provinces. Besides pateute or new and tuefui inventions, there are also granted patents for designs. Design-I>atenta are not now, as formerly, limited strictly to ornamental configuration ; but under Section 11 of the Act of March 2,1861, uuy new jormofnuy article,orany impression orjigure upon the surface of any article or material, by whatever menus or process produced, can bo pHteeted. Un - der this Act. patentees are entitled to the exten sion of their respective patents for the terra of seven years from the day oh which said patents shall ex pire, ftpon Hie same terms and restrictions as are now provided for tlie extensions of Letters-Patent. Among the numerous subjects foi patent* of (Ms class may be particularly mentioned—eastings of all metals, parts of machines, household (mnitpre and utensils; glassware, hardware of all kinds, corniees, aud other tuterior and exterior decoration of buildings; also, designs for woven and printed fabrics, drees a:id upholstery trimmings, and liar new labels and trade-marks for medicines, per fumery, and all preparations, compositions, or mercluuuli.-e, put up in hollies, boxes, or other packages, are suitable subjects; also, the forms of snch bottles, boxes, or packages themselves, ami envelopes, likewise nil works of art, as statuary, busts, compositions in alto or basso-relievo. The Government fee on a design-patent for 3 j years is $10; 7 years, sls; 14 years, $36. No models of designs are required; but duplicate drawing*or photograph* must be furnished- Tbe specification to accompany (he drawings or photograph* re quires to be prepared with great care. Messrs Brown, Coombs & Co. give very particular at tention to this branch of their business. Their charge for preparing applications for design-patents is generally about sls. Design patents are only granted to American citizensor to aliens who have resided one year in the United States aiid made oath of their intention to becoma citizens tlwreof. 'Hie facilities of Messrs. Bsown, Coombs &. Co for obtaining patents in tho variohe European countries are eqnafifnot superior to those of any other in tbe United States.' With regard to their qualifications for sneh busiuens, it need only, be stated that Mr. Brown, while with Messis Mvi» & Co. and in bis previous practicp, aud since the estabtishmentof the“AMiniCAN AktisaXPatent Agency,” has had the preparation of more Kuro pean applications than any othei person in this country, Messrs.
