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.

The American Artisan UN ITED STATES AND FOREIGN PATENT AGENCY. 189 Broadway, New York. Messrs. BROWN, COOMBS & CO., Proprie tors of tho AMERICAN ARTISAN, offer their beat services to inventors, as Solicitors of Ameri can and Foreign Patents. Mr. Henry T. Brown, of this firm, has had more than twenty-two years' experience in that prefession, both in this country and Europe, and his long practice has made him personally known to thousands of inven tors and patentees. The applications for the p&tcsats upon nssny of tho grofttoF Hod hmsb Leb portant inventions’of the present century have been prepared by him. Messis. Brown, Coombs & Co., are thoroughly familiar with nil the rules mid re gulations instituted for the rapid tiansmction of business with the United Slates Patent Office, and the geueial practice in the Patent Bureaus of vari ous European countries; and this knowledge ren ders them confident that thei r post experience, with their present uuequaled facilities, enables them to elaborately aud yet speedily prepare all the docu ments required by law in applications for patents, and to promise their clients an absolute certainty ofsuccessin theirjefforts toobtaiiijxjttersj’iitcnt for 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.

I ALMOST EVERY CASE ✓ CURED WITH PAIN KILLER. O 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. Ki v. CHARLES lIARDINIG, Sholaporo, India. [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 Special ffotice, b ? h R £ .wL - 4 s h 2 =s £ § ; ? « S ■ 5 H a » S- * to H h * § !•*< ■; A * ?
