SUNDAY MORNING October 4, 13C8 [Frpm the Toledo Blade • jSTasby. 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. Petroleum V. Nasby, P. M., (wieh is Postmaster.)

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.

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 Special Notice. • 2 e ' > L « 3 r. ■ BBSs: 5 .
