AUGUSTA. GA., FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 2, 1868.
Official.
Proclamation by the Governor.
Whkuear, Law-abiding citizens from many
sections of the State unite in communications to
this Department, setting forth that misguided
persons are stirring np strife among the people,
by unlawful acts of violence against the person
and property of citizens, on account of politfcal
opinion; and that persons distinguished for their
hostility to the Government of the United States,
aud of this State, are promoting said acts of vio
lence by publicly denouncing the laws as revolu
tionary, unconstitutional and void, and declaim
ing in a manner tending to excite resistance to the
lawful authority of the State, and to persuade
others to join in a combined resistance to and a
disregard of the civil rights of citizens; and
whereas, it is further communicated that the inev
it able result of said acts of violence and insurrec
tionary appeals is already becoming manifest in
the rapid spread of a disposition on the part of
those who maintain the validity of the laws of
Congress, and of the State Governments estab
fished thereunder, to protect themselves by arms
from said acts of violence, and from said combi
nations against their civil rights; aud whereas,
the General Assembly has adopted the' following
preamble and resolution ; “Whereas, it being the
practice of a portion of the citizens of this State
to assemble in large nnmbers with arms, for the
purpose of exercising in military tactics, and for
other unlawful purposes, without authority of
law. and to the terror of the good citizens thereof:
Resolved, therefore, by the Senate and House of
Representatives; That' Iris Excellency the Gov
ernor be, aud he is hereby, respectfully requested
to. issue his proclamation, prohibiting such armed
and unlawful assemblages. But the right of the
people to peaceably assemble for the consideration
of any matter shall not be impaired by any proc
lamation of the Governor.”
Now, therefore, I, Rufus B. Bullock, Governor
of this State, and Commander iu-Chief of the
army and navy aud militia thereof, do issue this
my Proclamation, commanding all citizens to ab
stain from any acts of violence against person or
property, or from persuasions which wifi tend to
excite to violence or unlawful combinations, and
from all interference with the constitutional right
of persons to assemble for political or other peace-.
ful purposes; and to yield prompt and respectful
obedience to the officers of the law under all cir
cumstance,; and also charging upon the mid
officers the exercise of great vigilance that the
majesty of the civil law be vindicated and great
caution that all their acts may be fully justified by
and done in pursuance of our Constitution and
laws. Aud to make known that no authority has
been granted by the Executive for the formation
of armed or unarmed organizations ot any kind or
character; and that the drilling or exercising in
military tactics witli arms of any organized body
of men within this State, except the army of the
United States, is unauthorized. unlawful, and
against the peace ami good order of the Stair;, and
must be immediately suspended.

drawings which must always accompany every
application for a patent, and they employ pone but
the most efficientdranghtsmen. The best evidefice
of the manner iu which Messrs. BuoWN, Coombs
&. Co.’s business is performed, is, that the “Amer
ican Artisan Patent Agknct,” during the three
years of its existence, has been the most successful
institution of the kM ever established.
The principal offices of Messrs. JJkuwn.Coom bs
& 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 inastnucli as it is within a stone's throw
from the City Hall. All inventors temporarily so
journing in the metropolis are invited to visit this
estubliimment. In|the majority of instance no model
or drawing of an invention will bo necessary on
the first interview, as a mere oral description by
the visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such
of his invention as will enable Messrs.
Brown, Coomiis & Co. to definitely determine
whether a machine or process is new or old —paten
table er not. «The office hours are from 9a.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 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, 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 desires to know, iiositively,
whether bis incipient idea has ever been embodied
in a machine or process already patented, his wisest
worse will be to havenpreliminary examination
made nt the United States Patent, office by Messrs.
Brown, Coombs & Co., who will make a special
searclqambng all the records of tliat institution, aud
then promptly forward a full and carefully written
report as to the patentability of the invention un
der examination. For this labor the small fee ol
$5 is payable in advance; and the remittance
should be accompanied by a sketch of the invention
aud a few lines of writing describing the same,
and distinctly suiting those points of novelty which
the inventor desire# to have protected by Ijetters-

Patents for new and useful inventions are now
granted for the term of seventeen tears The
firetinstalment ofjlte Governnietii lee is sls, which
sum -together with fifty cents revenue stamp-tux
on- the powcv-ot-ulWMwy —4» payable -ut mdvumeo,
ou applying for the patent $29 additional are
due to tl'ie Government when the Letters-Patent are
allowed. The Agency fee is from $25 upward, ac
cording to the labor involved; but in all cases our
charges will be as moderate us possible in the pre
paration of drawings aud all necessary documents.
This fee is not payable until after the application
has been prepared andtlie case is ready to be sent
to W«-liiugton. Messrs. Brown, Coomiis & Co.
have a branchia Washington so tliat.all applica
tions made through them can have every necessary
attention in their passage through the Patent Office.
Inventors applying for patents must furnish
models of their machines, whenever possible, for
the inspection of the 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 be marked with the in
ventor’s name, then carefully boxed, and sent (by
express, prepaid,), together with the firstinstalmeu
oftheGovenimeutfee, to Messrs Brown, CqoMits
& Co. When the model is small and light, it can
be couveuiently and cheaply sentby mail The
model must not exceed one foot iu any of itsdimens
ions, unless ills of such a character that it is im
practicable.
Patents, except those for designs, are granted
on equal-terms 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 grunted patents for tiesigns.
Desien-patents are not now. ns formerly, limited
strictly to ornamental configuration ; but under
Section 11 of the Act of March 2, 1861, any new
/ormofativartiele.orany impression otjiyure upon
the surface ol any article or material, by whatever
means or process produced, can be patented. Un
der this Act. patentees are entitled to the exten
sion of their respective patents for the term of seven
years from the day on which said patents shall ex
pire, upon the same terms and restrictions as are
now provided forthe extensions of Letters Pateut.
Among the numerous subjects foi patents of this
class may be particularly mentioned—castings of
all metals, parts of machines, household furniture
and utensils; glassware, hardware of all kinds,
cornices, and other interior and exterior decor .tions
of buildings; also, designs for woven and printed
fabrics, dress and upholstery trimmings, and har
ness labels and trade mark’s for medicines, per
fumery, and all preparations, compositions, or
mereliandi:c, put up in bottles, boxes, or other
packages, arc suitable subjects; also, thy forms of
such bottles, boxes, or packages themselves, and
envelopes, likewise all works of art, as statuary,
busts, compositions iu alto or basso relievo. The
Government fee on a design-patent for 3j years is
$10; 7 years, sls; 11 years, s3<>. No models of
designs are required; but duplicate drawings or
photographs must be furnished- The specification
to accompany the drawings or photographs re
quires to be prepared with great care. Messrs
Brown, Coombs &. Co. give very particular at
tention t<> this branch of their business. Their
charge for preparing applical ions for deaign-iiatenisi
is generally.about sls. Design patents are only
granted to American citizensor to aliensVlio have
resided one year in the United States and made
oath of their intention to become citizens thereof.
The facilities of Messrs. Bsow n , Cooxbs &Co
for obtaining patents in tbe various European
countries are equal if not superior to those of any
other in the United States. With regard to their
qualifications for such business, it need only be
stated that Mr. Brown has had the prepara
tion of more European applications than any
othei person in this country, Messrs.. Brown,
Coombs &. Co., besides having a branch office in
Washington, have their own agencies in the
principal capitals of Europe. A circular relating
to foreign patent business will be furnished free
on application personally or by mail.
Messrs. Brown, C< -MBs & Co. also attend toiu
terf'ere'nees, the extensions of expiring Letters-
Patent, and all proceedings relating to patents be

MEDICINAL.
Asiatic Cholera in China.
ALMOST EVERY CASE
CURED WITH
PAIN KILLER.
o .
j > EAD THE FOLLOWING IJRJTER FROM
I k Rev. R. Telford, Misßionary in China; now*
visiting liis borne in Peinisylvnnia:
Washington, Pa., Jutte‘2s, 1866.
Messrs. Perry Davis <fc Son Providence, R. L:
Dear Sirs —During a remdenoe of nome ten
years as a Missionary in Siam und Uhinu, I found
your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable
remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera.
In administering the medicine, I foiinditmost
effectual to give a teaapuonful of Pain JKiiler iu a
gill of hot wzAer sweetened with sugar; then,
after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table
spoonful ot the srime mixture every minute until
relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to
the extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain
Killer, clear and rub the Hnlbs briskly. Os those
who had the cholera, and took the medicine faith
fully in the way stated above, eight out Os ten
recovered. Yours, truly,
R TELFORD.
If an attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or
Cramp Colic, don't delay tbe use of tiie Puin
Killer. Sold by all uiodicine dealers. Price, 25
cents, 50 cents, and $1 per bottle.
Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866.
(icutlemen— * ” ’ 1 want to say a little
more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a very
valuable medicine, and always keen it oil hand.
I have travelled a good deal since I nave beep iu
Kansas, and never without takiug it with lae.
In my practice I used it freely for the Asiatic
Cholera, in 1849, and with bolter success titan any
other medicine ; I also used it here for cholera iu
1855, with the same good result.
’ Truly, yours, ' A. HUNTING, M. D.
SWato, China.
Oholcia I * * * I regret to say that the
cholera Ims prevailed here of late to' a fearful
extent. For the lust, tlifoe weeks, from leu to
fifty or sixty fatal cases each day has been re
ported. I should add that the Pain Killer, sent
recently trout the Mission House, has been used
with considerable success during this epidemic.
If taken in season is generally effectual in check
ing the disease.
Rev. CHARLES HARDINIG,
Sbolapore, India.
[From the Portland Monthly.]
Summer Complaint and Dysentery.
Bowd complaints seem' just now to be the
prevailing element, and any medicine that is.
every where acceptable, aud that is reliable, is a
very desirable acquisition. From what we have
seen, heard, aud experienced, we believe Davis'
Puin Killer is this desideratum. For the best
method of using it, we quote from tbe directions:
“For common bowel complaints, give one tea
spoonfnl in a gill of new milk and molasses, iu
equal parts, stirred well together; lesseu tbe dose
for children, Recording to tbe age. If the pain be
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 quickest way I ever saw the dysentery
cored was by taking one epoonftit «f the Pain
Killer in one' gill of milk nnd molasses stirred
well together and drank hot, at the same time
bathing the bowels freely with medieiHe Let
tlw.doac be repeated every honr amtij, tbepatient
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 sickness
would be saved. jel2—2m
