T,ie Reception of the Newt of the Maine
Election in Kentucky—A Moist Jollifica
tion and a Damp Time Generally at the
Corners.
Post Offis, Confediut X Roads, I
(Wieh is in the State uv Kentucky), )
Sept. 20, 1868. j
The glorious news of ,thc Maine election
reached the Corners promptly on the fourth
. day after it occurred. So anxious wuz we
* to hev the earliest intelligence uv the over
throw uv the Ablishnist uv the Pine Tree
State, that Bascum’s mule wuz kept bridled
and saddled, Issaker Gavitt’s little brother,
Jethro, onto him, at Secessionvillc, the near
est stashun to us, for three days and nites.
But ez no tranes stop th'cr. onless ther is a
btircl uv whisky to roll oft' for Bascom, it
wuz a long time afore we cood git a paper.
That paper wuz finally thrown off to him,
and he rode into the Corners wavin it over
his hed in triumph. It wuz a World, but
hed it been a Iriboon it wood hev made no
difference. Ez the precious child can’t reed,
all papers is alike to him. •
1 opened it in feverish eagerness, and my
sole dilated cz I saw the hed lines.
“How is it?” shreekt Dekin Program,
Elder Penuibacker and Bascotn, in a breath.
“Sec them roosters ! Observe them hed
lines. We hev carried the day, uv coarse !”.
“Ror!" shouted the entire assemblage.
“Three cheers’” sed I, “for Maine. The
tidle wave uv Dcmocricy hez commensed
movin. Maine hez succumed; let the other
States do ez well, and Seamour is elected.
Three cheers for Maine 1”
They gave cm with a will, and then de
manded the pertickelers.
“I will reed,” says I. “Listen 1 ”
“We hev the pleasure uv announcing to
our reeders the most glorious victory ever
acheved by the Democrisy uv any State.”
“Ror!” sung they out altogether.
“Maine hez spoken. The Ablishnists who
expected to carry the State by 23,000 ma
jority at leest, and who hed based their hopes
thereon, hev bin—”
“Ror 1”
“Disapinted. After a hard fought battle,
in wieh money wusyooacd without-stiut, they
hev—”
• “Ror I”
"Carried the Slate by only 22,000 ! 1
The vast aujeuce by this time gathered,
didn’t cheer at this. On the contrary, there
wuz a most ominus silence pervadin uv em,
wieh I ackuollege affected me.
"Is this reely and trooly a victory ?” askt
the Deckin, in a husky whisper.
“So the paper sez,” returned I.
“How much did they carry the Slate by,
last Fall ?” askt he, bustin inlotears.
“Eleven thousand and some odd hun
dreds," replied 1, wipin my eyes in a vane
attempt to restrane the tears which started
forbidden.
“Es wo keep on gainin at tuc same rate in
Ohio, Injeany and I’ennsylvany, will it cer
tainly elect Seymore ?” asked the blessed old
lamb.
“So the World sez,” ecd I.
“Then lets jollify,” sed he, and proceeded
to do it.
A percession wuz formed, and a more
glorious one it hez never bten my lot to
ornament. It wuz organized in the follow
ing order:
1. The Deekin and me with haiidkcrchecls
at our eyes, weepin perfoosely.
2. Military band, consistin uv one bass
drum playin the Dcd march in Saul, the per
former okkopyin one hand with his hanker
chief, and the other a holdin uv the drum in
consekence of the strap bein in yoose ez a
circingle on Bascom’s mule.
3. Bascom with a hankerchief ut his eyes
engaged in ’calkelating cf I kep on payin
my licker bill at his bar at the same rate
the Democrasy hed won viclrys in Maine,
how long he could stand it if my stumick
held out.
4- Elder Ponuibacker and Issaker Gavitt
both with bunkerchiefs.
5. Captain McPelter and Elder Punt,with
hankerchiefs.
G. The populis generally, with hanker
chiefs.
7. Joe Bigler and Pollock, the lllinoy
store-keeper, arm in arm, without hanker
chiefs, and wcarin a most disgustin expres
sion uv levity on their countenances.
8. A dozen or more niggers, all with
hankerchiefs—in their pockets —and showiu
their ivories furiously.
This cheerful percession reached the
church, wieh it entered, all the members
thereof holdin ther heads down jubilantly,
eopting Pollock, Bigler, and the niggers.
We marched slowly up the aisles, I taking
the cheer without the formality uv a vote.
After settin decorously for perhaps three
minits, each with his head bowed in high
glee onto the seat afore him, Deekin Pogram
arose, and wipin his eyes, remarked that the
'occasion wuz one uv great exilerashun ; we
hed heard from Maine (pensive cheers from
the awjeuce), and we hod gathered together
to jollify thereover. He moved, therefore,
that we jollify, and sot down overcome with
his feclins.
Another interval uv three minits elapsed,
which was spent by the populis in the most
exhileratin meditation with their heads
bowed. Elder Pennibacker then arose,
and puttin his damp hankercher in his
pocket, blithely askt es it woodent be well
to read the vote by counties.
Issaker Gavitt, spreadin his hankercher
on the back uv the seat afore him to dry,
and usin his coat-tale in its place, viva
ciously observed that it wood Lighten the
interest uv the occashun es the sed vote wuz
compared with the vote uv the preceedin
years, and he sat down jubilantly, his eyes
suffused with tears.
Bascom, with animashen born uv high
hopes, remarkt that the result would doubt
less hev an effeck upon Ohio and Pennsyl
vany, at wieh the aujcnce, ez wun man,
sprightfully exclaimed, “ God forbid."
After Bittin in cheerful, buoyant silence
for perhaps ten minits, Deacon Pogram
moved that, ez we he,l jollified long muff,
perhaps it wood be well to adjourn, at
which the aujence moved with decorous
slowness out uv the church, and each went
to his own home. peacefully and without
any uv that levity and noisiness wieh hez
marked other occasions uv the kind. Bas
com remembered at a little past ten, ez
him, Pogram and me sot in his bar, that
we hed- forgotten in our excitement to give
any cheers for Seymore and Blare, but it
wuz too late to git cm together agin, and so
let it go.
I notist, however, as I passed Pollock’s
store, that a party gathered there felt well.
Bigler, Pollock, the free niggers uv the
Corners, and a parcel uv Northern men
who hev settled on the Run west uv town,
hed gethered together, and ther cheers for
Grant, and ther hip, hip, hurrah’s for Maine,
grated harshly on my feelins. Kin it be
that Seymour is to be beaten after all I Kin
it be that in my old age I shell be turned
out uv my haven uv rest, that Pollock will
hev my place, and that the place wieh
knows me now will shortly know me no
more forever ?
Convulsively kissin the stamp and with a
lovin look at the mail bags, I sunk sobbin
onto my couch. Thus ended this most au
spishus day.

The American Artisan
UNITED STATES AND FOREIGN
PATENT AGENCY.
189 Broadway, New York.
Messrs. BROWN, COOMBS & CO., Proprie
tors of the AMERICAN ARTISAN, offer their
best services to inventors, as Solicitors of Ameri
cm and Foreign Patents. Mr. llknut T. Brown,
of thia firm, has had more than tirenty-ltco gears'
experience in that profession, both iu this country
and Europe, and his long practice has made
him personally known to thousands of inven
tors and patentees. The applications for the
patents upon many of the greater and more im
portant in ventions of the present century have been
prepared by him. Messrs. Buown. CooMl’.s A Co.,
are thoroughlv familiar with all the rules and re
gulations instituted for the rapid transaction of
business with the United Stales Patent Office, and
the general practice in the Patent Bureaus of vari
ous European countries; mid 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
ments reqiiired by law in applications for patents,
and to promise their clients an absolute certainly
of successin theirjefforts to'.obtainjLettereJ'a ten t for
inventions that ate really new and useful. Parti
cular care is given to the cxeoution 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. Bbown, Coombs
&. Co.’s business is performed,is, that the “Am eu
ican Artisan Patswt Agency,” during the three
years of its existence, has been the most successful
institution of the kind ever established.
The principal offices cf 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 within a stone's throw
from the City Hall. All inventore temporarily so
jouruing iu the metropolis are invited to visit this
establishment. Injthe majority of in stance no model
or drawing of an invention will bo necessary on
the first interview, ns a mere oral description bv
tho visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such
of his invention as will enable Messrs.
Brown, Coombs &. Co. to definitely determine
whethera machine or process is now or old—paten
table or not. The office hours are from 9 A.M.
to 5 r. m.
Messis. BiioWb, 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- 1
ience; but if att inventor deeiresto know, positively,
whether his incipient idea has ever been embodied
in a machine or process already patented, his wisest <
course will bo to have npreliminary examination
made at the United States Patent office by Messrs.
Brown, Coombs & Co., who will make a special
searclqainong all the records of that institution, and
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 of
$5 is payable in advance; and the temittance
shouldbe 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 Lotters-
Patent
Patents for new and useful inventions are now
granted for the term of seventeen ykabs The
firstiustalment outlie Governmenxleeis sls, which
sum—together with fifty cento revenue stamp-tax
on the powcr-of attorney— is payable 'tn advance,
on applying for the patent; aud S2O additional are
due to t he Government when the Letters Patent are
allowed. The Agency fee ie from $25 upward, ac
cording to the labor involved; but m all cases our
charges will be as moderate as possible in tho 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. Brown, Coombs A. Co.
have a branchin Washington so that all applica
tious 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 tho Examiners iu 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, aud sent (by
express, prepaid}, together with the first instalmen
of the Government fee, to Messrs Brown, Coombs
A. 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 to citizens and all foreigners, except
inhabitants of Canada and some others of the
British American Provinces.
Besides patents or new and useful inventions,
there are also granted patents for uesigus.
Design-patents are not now, as formerly, limited
st.rict.lv to ornamental configuration ; but under
Section 11 of the Act of March 2. 1861, any new
form ofanv article, orauy impression orjiynre upon
the surface of 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
yeai-s from the day on which said patents shall ex
pire, upon the sai’uo terms and restrictions as are
now provided fertile extensions of Letters-PateuL
Among the numerous subjects fol patents of this
class may be particularly mentioned—castings of
all metals, part* of machines, household furniture
and utensils; glassware, hardware of all kinds,
cornices, and other interior and exterior decor .lions
of buildings; also, designs for woven aud printed
fabrics, dressand nphotstery trimmings, and bur
tiess labels and trade-marks for medicines, per
fumery. and .ill preparations, or
merchandi e, put up in bottles, boxes, or other
packages, are suitable subjrets; also, the forms of
such bottles, boxer, 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 31 years is
SHI;7 years,sls; 11 years, s3<>. No models of
designs are required; but duplicate drawings or
photographs must be furnished- Tire specification
to .nccotttpany the drawings or photogranhs re
quires to’ be'prepared with great care. Messrs
Brown, Coombs A. 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 citizcnsor to aliens who have
resided one year in the United States and made
oath of their’intent.ion to become citizens thereof.
The 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
other person in this country, Messrs. Brown,
Coombs & Co., besides having a branch office tn
Washington, have their own agencies iu the
principal capitals of Europe. A circular relating
to foreign patent business will be furnished tree
on application personally or by mail.
Messis. Brown, C< . mbs A Co. also attend to iu
terferenccs, 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
Read the following letter from
Rev. R. 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 tea
years as a Missionary iu 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 teaspoonfnl of Pain Killer iu 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
tho extremities. Bathe the stomach will; 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 an attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or
Cramp Colic, dou't delay the use of the Pain
Killer. Sold by all medicine deniers. Price, 25
cents, 50 cents, aud $1 jier bottle.
Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866.
Gentlemen— * • - I want to say a little
more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a very
valuable medicine, aud always keep it on hand.
I have travelled u 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, iu 1819, aud with better success than any
other medicine; I also used it here for cholera in
1855, with tho same guud result.
Truly, yours, ~ A. HUNTING, M. D.
• Bwato, China.
Gholcxa ’***! 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. 1 Hlionld add that, the Pain Killer, sent
recently from the Mission House, Ims beeu used
with considerable success during this epidemic.
If taken in season to generally effectual in check
ing t he disease.
Rev. CHARLES HARDINIG,
. Bhoiapore, India.
[From the Portland Monthly.!
Summer Complaint and Dysentery.
Bowel complaints seem just now to be the
prevailing element, and any medicine that ie
every where acceptable, and that is reliable, is a
very desirable acquisition. From what we have
seen, heard, and experienced, ire 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 tea
spoon lul in n gill of new milk and molasses, in
equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose'
lor children, according to the age. If the pain be
severe, bathe the bowels and back with the medi
cine. Thia mode of t realment is good in eases 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 and drank hot, at Ute same time
bathing 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 sickness
would be saved. jel2—2nt
