Messis. BROWN, COOMBS & CO., Proprie tors ot the AMERICAN ARTISAN, offer their beet services to inventors, as Solicitors of Aineri can ami Foreign Patents. Mr. llznkv T. Brown , of this firm, has had more than lii’eiity two years' cxpei ieuce in that prefession, both in this country and Europe, and his long practice has 'made him personally known to thousands of inven tors mid patentees. The applications for the patents upon many of the greater and more iin iwrtant in ventions’of the present century have been prepared by him. Messrs. Brown, Coomhs Ac. Co., are thoroughly familiar with all the rules and re gulations instituted for the rapid transaction of business with tho United Slates Patent Office, and the general practice in the Patent Bureaus of vari ous European countries; and this knowledge ren ders them confident that their post experience, with their present unequaled facilities, enables them to elaborately and yet speedily prepare all the docu menta required by law in applications for patents, und to promise their clients an absolute certainly ofuuccessin theirjefforts toobtainjLettersjPatentfor inventions that are really 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 iiest evidence of the manner in which Messrs. BhoWN, Coombs & Co.’s business is performed, is, that tbe“4MKK ican AiiT-tsAit Patent Agency,” during thethree vears of its existence, has lieen the. mot! mmmunfitl instil it Ihr n of the kind ever established. The principal offices of Messrs. Brown.Coombs & Co. are situated at 189 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 withiu a stone's throw from the City Hall. All inventors temporarily so jonming in the metropolis are invited to visit this establishment.. In|tlie majority of instance uo model or drawing of au invention will bo necessary on the first interview, as a mere oral description by the visitor will' ordinarily suffice to convey such aknowledge of his invention us will enable Messis. Brown, Coombs A. Co. to definitely determine whet her a machine or process is new or old- paten table or not. The office hours are from 9a..m. to 5 r. M. • ” Measra. Brown, Coombs A- Co. are prepared to furnish to persons residing at a distance from New York —free of charge— written opinions us to whether inventions contain any featnresof paten table novelty; to do this they simply require a sketch or rough model of the machine or other in vention that is supposed to be new, together with a brief description of the same, mid tre soon we. pos sible t hereafter a letter of the bet-l lebvict Is mail ed to the person desiring the information. These opinions are formed from their own mature exper ience, but. ifau iu venter desires to know, positively, whether liis incipient idea has ever been embodied ina machine or process already patented, liis wisest course will be to have npreliminary examination made al the United States Patent office by Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co., who will make a special searchptmong all the records of that mstitutioii, aud then protnplly forward a full and carefully written report as lo the patentability of the invention un der examination. For this labor the small fee of $5 ia payable in advance; and the remittance should do accompanied by a sketch of the invention and a few lines of writing describing the rani*, ami distinctly stating those points of novelty which the inventor desires to have protected by Letters- Pateut. Patents for new aud useful inventions are now granted for the teim of st ventesn years Tho first instalment ofjthe Government lee is sls, which sum —together with fifty cents revenue stamp tax qjj the power of-altoruey—is payable Au_adrourr, on applying for the patent; and >2O additional are due to the Government when t lie Ijettere-Patentare allowed. The Agency fee is from $25 upward, ac cording to the labor involved; but in ull rases our chargee will be as moderate as possible in the pre paration of drawingsand 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. Bkown. Coombs & Co. have a branchin Washington ho thatall uppliea tioue made throngh them can have every necessary attent ion in their passage through the Patent Office Inventors applying for patents must furuish models of their machines, whenever possible, for the inspection of tho Examiners in the Patent Office; but. if the invention is a chemical composi 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 firstinstalmen oftlieGoveninieutfee,toMesßis Brown,Coombs &. Co. When the model is small mid light, it can be conveniently and cheaply sentby mail The model must not exceed one foot iu any of itsdimeue ions, unless it is of such a character that it is im practicable.

Asiatic Cholera in China, ALMOST EVERY CASE CURED WITH PAIN KILLER. —o Read the following letter from Rev. R. Telford, Missionary in China, now visiting his home in Pennsylvania; Washington, Pa., June 25,1866. Messrs. Perry IdanuJb 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 medicine, I found it most effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain Killer in a gill of hot weter sweetened with sugar; then, after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table spoonful ot the same mixture every minute until relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to • >-e extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain Killer, clear aud rub the limbs briskly. Oi those who had the cholera, and took the medicine faith fully in the way stated above, eight out of ten recovered. Yours, truly, R 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, sl> cents, ami $1 per bottle. Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866. Gentlemen— * " * 1 want to say a little more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a very valuable, medicine, and always keen it on hand. I have travelled a good deal since I nave been in Kansas, and never without taking it with me, Iu niy practice I used it freely tor the Asiatic Cholera, in 18-19, aud with better success than any other medicine -, I also used it here for cholera iu 1855, with the same good result. Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. D. Bwato, China. Choleia !***! regret to say that the cholera has prevailed here of late to a fearful extent. For the last three weeks, from teff to fifty or sixty fatal eases each day has been re ported. I should add that the Pain Killer, sent recently from the Mission House, bus been used with considerable success during this epidemic. If taken in season is generally effectual in check ing the disease. Rev. CHARLES HARDINIG. . Sholapore, India. [From the Portland Monthly ] Summer Complaint and Dysentery. Bowel complaints seem just now to be the prevailing element, and any medicine that is everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable, is a very desirable acquisition. From wlmt we have seen, heal'd, and experienced, we believe Davis' Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the best method of using it, we quote from the directions: “For common bowel complaints, give one te.n apoviiful in a gill of new milk aud molasses, in equal parts, stirred well together; lessen tho dose for children, according to the age. If the pain bo severe, bathe the bowels and back with the medi cine. This mode of treatment is good in eases oi 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 with medicine Let the dose lauejififfied every hour until the ihiUvul.- is relieved. If every person who has reason to fear thin disease would provide themselves with a bottle of this medicine, and use as occasion required, We believe a great amount of suffering and sickness would bn saved. jelS—2m Special Notice. nj ■ ’ » jF - - i 7 * flr Jr- ■ 1_ I M J r ? »“ S- = 3 a I IB— s- ? « “ I 1”f ?a ” I WN 1.1 z?. el 2 s > 0 \ * 2, s» o > 3 g W-7 WI I " Spectacles Rendered Useless The most eminent physicians Oculists and Divines recommend the nse of the CORNEA RESTORERS for Presbyopia or Far or Long Sightedness, or every person who wears spectacles from old sge ; Dimness of Vision or Blurring; Overworked eyes; Astheno pia or Weak Eyes; Epiphora, or Watery Eyes ; Pain in the Eye-ball; Amaurosis, or Obscurity of Vision; Photophobia, or Intolerance of Light; Weakness of the Retina and Optic Nerve; Myodesophia, or Spocks of Moving Bodies before the eyes; Ophthalmia, or luffiyn mation of the Eye aud Eyelids, aud Imperfect Vision from the effect of Inflammation, ete.; Cataract Eyes; • liemiopia, or Partial Blind ness ; and many other Diseases of the Eye.
