AUGUSTA, GA., SATURDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 3, 18 68.
Official.
Proclamation by the Governor.
Whkhrai, Law-abiding citizens from many
sections of the State unite in communications to
this Department, setting forth that misguided
persons are stirring up strife among tlie people,
by unlawful acts violence against the person
aiid property of citizens, on account, of political
opinion; and that persons distinguished lor their
ho utility to the Government of the United States,
and 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; ami
whereas, it is further communicated that, the inev
itable 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
thnge whn maintain the validity of t.he laws of
Congress, and of the State Governments estab
lished thereunder, to protect themselves by arms
from said acts of violence, and from said combi
nations against their civil rights; and whereas,
the General Assembly lias adopted the following
preamble and resolution : “Whereas, it being the
practice of a portion of the citizens of this State
to alterable in large numbers with arms, for the
purpose of exercising in military tactics, and for
other unlawful purposes, 4viiliout authority of
law, and to the terror of the good citizens thereof;
Resolved, therefore, by the Senate and House of
Representatives. Thai’ his Excellency the Gov
ernor be, and he is hereby, respectfully requested
to issue liis proclamation, prohibiting such armed
and unlawful assemblages. But the right of thu
people to peaceably assemble for the consideration
of any matter shall not be impaired by any proc
lamation of the Governor.”

ful purposes; and to yield prompt and respectful
obedience to the officers of the all cir
cumstances; and also charging upon the < aid
officers the exercise of great vigilance that the
majesty of the civil law be vindicated and great
caution that all their acts may be tally justified by
and done in pursuance of our Constitution and
laws. And to make known that, no authority has
been granted by the Executive for the formation
of armed oruqarmed organizations of any kind or
character; and that the drilling or exercising in
military taclicb with arms of any organized body

inventions that ate 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, and they employ none but
the most efficient draughtsmen. The best evidence
of the manner in which Messrs. Brown, Coombs
& Co.'s business is performed,is, that the “Amer
ican Artisan Patent Auency,” during the three
years of its existence, has been the most successful
institution of the kind ever established.
The principal offices of Messrs. Brown,Coombs
&. Co. me situated al 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 ns it is within a stone’s throw
from the City Hall. All inventors temporarily so
jouruing in the metropolis are invited to visit this
establishment, Injthe majority of instance uo model
or drawing of an invention will be necessary on
the first interview, as a mere oral description by
the visitor wilt ordinarily suffice to convey sucli
aknowledge of his invention as will enable Messrs.
Brown, Coombs & Co. to definitely determine
whether a machine or process is new or old—paten
table or not. The office hours are from 9 a.m.
to 5 P. M.
Messrs. Brown, Coombs &. Co. are prepared to
furnish to persons residing at a distance from New
York—free of charge—wriWen 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 au inventor desires to know, positively,
whether his incipient idea has ever been embodied
in a machine or process already patented, his 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
searebjamong all the records of that institution, and
then promptly forward a full and carefully written
report as to the patentability optbe invention un
der exnmniation. For this labor the small fee of
$5 is payable in advance; and the remittance
should be accompanied by a sketch of the 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 now and useful iuveuliuus are now
granted for the term of seventeen years The
first instalment brtlie Government lee is sls, which
sum -together with fifty cents revenue stamp-tax
on the power ol attorney—is payable la advance,
on applying lor the patent; and $26 additional are
dne to 1 In- 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 as possible in the pre
paration 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 branchin Washington so thatall applica
tions made through them can haveevery necessary
attention in their passage through the Patentoffice
Inventors applying for patents must furnish
models of their machines, whenever possible, for
the inspection of tlie Examiners in the Patent
Office; but if the invention is a chemical composi
Hon, samples of all the ingredients will be neces
sary. Each of these Bhould be marked with the in
ventor's name, then carefully boxed, and sent (by
expies^, prepaid), together with the first instiilmtm
oftlie'Governniont fee,to Messis Brow n,Coombs
& Co. When the model is small and light, it can
be conveniently and cheaply sentby mail The
model must not exceed one foot in any of itsdimens
ions, unless it is of such a character that, it is im
practicable.
Patents, except those for designs, are granted
on equal terms t<> citizens and all foreigners, except
inhabitants of Canada and some others of tlie
British American Provinces.
Besides patents or new and usefu. invenlions,
there are also granted patents for uesigns.
Design-patents are not now. as formerly, limited
strictly to ornamental configuration ; but under
Section 11 of the Act of March 2, IB6L any new
form ofany article, orany impression or figure upon
the surface of any article or material, by whatever
means or process produced, can fiyiatented. Un
der this Act, patentees are entitled to tlie exten
sion of their respective patents for the term of seven
years from the day on which said patents shall ex
pire, upon the- Harte t.armsand reetiictions as are
now provided for the cxteiisions of Letters Patent.
Among the numerous subjects foi patents of this
class may be particularly mentioned—castings of
all metals, parts of machines, household fiuniture
and utensils; glassware, hardware of all kinds,
cornices, and oi her interior and exterior decor > tions
of buildings; also, design* lor woven and printed
fabrics, dress and upholstery trimmings, and har
ness labels and trade marks for medicines, per
fumery, and all preparations, compositions, or
merehamli e, put up in bottles, boxes, or other
packages, are suitable subji cts; also, the forms of
such bottles, boxes, or packages themselves, and
envelopes, likewise all works of art,as statuaiyj
busts, compositions in alto or basso relievo. The
Government fee on a design patent for 3| years is
$10;j years,sls; It years, S3O. No models of
designs are required; but duplicate drawings or
photographs must be furnished- Tlie sjiecification
to accompany the drawings or photographs re
quires to lie' prepared with great care. Messrs
Brown, Goombs & Co. give very particular at
tention to this branch of their business. Their
charge for preparing applications for deeign-pataet’
is generally about sls. Design patent* are only
granted to American citizensor to aliens who have
resided one year in the United States aud made
oath of their intention to become citizens thereof.
Tlie facilities of Messrs. Bsown, Coombs & Co
for obtaining patents in the 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
otbei person in this country, Messi-.-. 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.

terfereuccs, Vie extensions of expiring Letters-
Patent, and all proceedings relating to patent* be

I ) EAD THE FOLLOWING LETTER FROM
lA. Rev. 11. Telford, Missionary in China, now
visiting his home in Pennsylvania:
Washington, Pa., June 25,1866.
Messrs. Perry Davis & Son, Providence, R. 1.:
Dear Sirs—During a residence of some ten
years as a Missionary in Siam and Chiun, I found
your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable
remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera.
administering the medicine, I found it most I
effectual to give a teaspoemful of Pain Killer ift a
gill of hot wr.ter 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
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
recovered. Yours, truly,
R TELFORD.
If au attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or
Cmtnp Colie, don't the use of the Pain
Killer. Sold by all medicine deniers. Price, 25
cents, 50 cents, and $1 per bottle.
Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866.
Gentlemen—, * I want to say u little
more about, the Pain Killer. I considet it a very
valuable medicine, and always keep it on hand.
1 have travelled a good deal since I have been in
Kansas, and never without taking it with me,
In my practice I used it freely for the Asiatic
Cholera, in 1819, aud wills better success than any
other medicine; I also nsed it here for cholera in
1855, with tho same good result.
Truly, yours, ‘ A. HUNTING, M. 1).
Swato, China. (
Choleia J * * * 1 regret to say that the
cholera has prevailed here of late to a fearful
extent.- For tho lust 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 iu season is generally effectual in check
ing the disease.

[From the Portland Monthly J
Summer Complaint and Dysentery, i
Bowel complainto seem just now to be the
prevailing element, and any medicine that is
every where acceptable, and that is reliable, is a
very desirable aequisilion. From what we have
seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davis'
Pain Killer is this deaidcratum For the best
method of using it, we quote from the directions :
“For common bowel complaints, give one tea
spoonful iir a gill of new milk and molasses, in
equal parts, stirred well togetlier; lessen the dose
lor children, according to the age. If the pain be
Severe, bathe the bowels and back with the medi
cine. This mode of treatment is good hi cases of
the cholera morbus, sudden 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 anil drank hot, at tlie same time
bathing the bowels freely with medieiue. Ijet
the dose he 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, aud use as occasion required, wo
believe a great amount of suffering and sickness
would be saved. jol2—2m
