The American Artisan UNITED STATES AND FOREIGN PATENT AGENCY. 189 Broadway, New York. M itsrs. BROWN, COOMBS ft CO., Proprie tors of the AMERICAN ARTISAN, oiler their best services to inventors, as Solicitors of Ameri canand Foreign Patents. Sir. Henry T.Brovvn, of this firm, has had more than ttcenty-lwo years' experience in that profession, both in thia country and Europe, and his long practice inis made him personally known to thousands of inven tors aud patentees. The applications for the patents upon many of the greater and more im portant inventions ol the present century have been prepared by him. Messrs. Brown, Coomrs & Co., are thoroughly familiar with all the rules and re gulutious instituted for the rapid tiansac.tion of business with the United States Patent Office, aud the general practice in the Patent Bureaus of vari ous European countries; aud this knowledge ren ders them confident that their post experience, with their present unequaled facilities, enables them to elaborately mid yet speedily prepare all the docu ments required by law in applications for patents, and to promise their clients an absolute certainty ofeuccestm theirjefforts to obtain,LettereJPalent for inventions that aio really new and usuful. Parti cular care is given to the execution oftlie accurate drawings winch must always accompany every application for a patent , mid 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 Agency,” during the three years of its existence, has been the most successful institution of Ike kind ever established. The principal offices of Messis. Brown. Coombs ft Co. are situated at 189 Broadway,onpdsite 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 tiio City Hall. All inventors temporarily sc jouruiug in the metropolis are invited to visit this -establishment. In|the majority of instance no model or drawing of an invention will be necessary on the first interview, as a mere oral description by tiie visitor will ordinarily suffice to convey such akuowledgo of his invention as will enable Messrs. Brown, Coombs & Co. to definitely determine whethera machine or process is new or old —paten- table or not. The office hours are from 9 a.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 bo new, together with a brief description of the same, nnd 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, positively, whether his incipient idea has ever been embodied in a machine or process already patented, his wisest course will bo to have a preliminary examination made at the United States Patent office by Messrs. Brown, Coombs ft Co., who will make a special all the records of that institution, and then promptly forward a full and carefully written report as to the patentability of the invention uu der examination. For this labor the small fee of $5 is payable in advance; aud the remittance sliouldbe accompanied by a sketch of the invention and a few lines of writing describing the same, and distinctly stating those pointsof novelty which the inventor desires to have protected by Letters- Patent Patents for new aud useful inventions are now granted for the term of seventeen years The first instalment oftlie Government feels sls, which sum—together with fifty cents revenue stamp-tux on the powcr-of attorney— is payable tn advance, ou applying for the potent; and S2O additional are due to tin, Government when the Letters-Patent are allowed. The Agency fee is from $25 npward, ac cording to the labor involved; bnt m all cases our charges will te us 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 nnd the case is ready to be sent to 'Vashington. Messrs. HroWN. Coombs & Co. have a branchin Washington so that 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 diemicul composi tiou, samples of all the ingredients will be neces sary. Each of these should be marked wit h the in ventor's name, then carefully boxed, and sent (by express, prepaid), together with the first instaimen of the Government fee, to Messrs Brown, 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 auy of itedimeus ious, 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 aud some others of the British American Provinces. Besides patents or new and usclii, inventions, there are also granted patents for resigns. Design are not now. as formerly, limited strictly to ornamental configuration ; but under Section 11 of the Act of March 2. 1861 , any new form ofutiv article, orauy impression orfyure iqion 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 years from the day on which said patents shall ex pire, upon the same, terms and restrictions as are now provided for the extensions of Letters-Patent. Among the numerous subjects foi patents of this class uisv be paiticiilnrly mentioned—castings of all metals, parts of machines, household furniture and utensils; glassware, hardware of all kinds, cornice.-,and other interior and exterior decor. t ious of buildings; also, designs for woven and printed fabrics, dress and upholstery trimmings, and har ness labels and trade-marks for medicines, per fumery, and all preparations, compm itione, or mercliandi e, put up in bottles, boxes, or other packages, are suitable subji cts; also, the tornis of such bottles, boxes, or packages themselves, nnd envelopes, likewise nil works of art, as statuary, busts, compositions in alto or basso-relievo. The Govenimeiit. fee on a design-patent for 3j years is $10; 7 yoars,sls; 14 years, S3O. No mod<*la of uesigns are required; but duplieaui 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 to this branch of their business. Tiieir chargcJvr preparing applications for design-patents is generally about sls. .Design patents are only granted to American citizensor to aliens who have resided one year in the United States and mails oath of their intention to become citizens thereof . The facilities of Messrs. Bbown, Coombs Sc Co for obtaining patents in the various European countries are equal if uot 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 bad the prepara tion of more dfiuropean applications than any othet person in this country, Messrs, Brown, Coombs & Co., besides having a branch office tn 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 mad. Messrs. Brow N, C< -mbs & Co. also attend loin terferences, the extensions of expiring Letters' Patent, and all proceedings relating to patents be fore the United States Patent Office.

MEDICINAL. Asiatic Cholera in China. ALMOST EVERY CASE tMJRED WITH PAIN KILL EK. o I> F.AD THE FOLLOWING LETTER FROM 11 Rev. R. Telford, Missionary in China, now visiting liif home in Pennsylvania; Washington, Pa., June 25,1866. Messrs. Perry Davis <t Son l Providence, R. 1.: Dear Sirs—During a residence of some ten years as a Missionary in Siam and China, I found your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera. In administering the medicine, 1 found it most effectual to give a teaspoonfnl of Pain Killer in a gill of hot water sweetened with sugar; then, after abont fifteen minutes, begin to give a table spoonful ot the saniejnixtiue 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, eiglit out of ten recovered. Yours, truly, R TELFORD. If au attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or Cramp Colic, don’t delay the use of the Pain Killer. Sold by all medicine dealers. Price, 25 cents, 59 cents, and $1 per bottle. Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866. Gentlemen — * * ' 1 want to say a little more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a very valuable medicine, and always keep it on hand. I have travelled a good deal since I nave been in Kansas, and never without taking it with me. In my practice I used it freely for the Asiatic Cholera, in 1819, aud with better success than any other medicine; I also used it here for cholera in 1855, with the same gi “d result. Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. I). Swato, China. Cholera! * *' * I regret to say that the cholera hair 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. I should add. that, the Pain Killer, sent recently from the Mission House, lias been used with considerable success during this epidemic. If taken in season is generally effectual in check ing the disease. Rev. CHARLES HARDINIG, Bholapore, India. [From the Portland Monthly J Summer Complaint and Dysentery. Bowel complaints seem just, now to be the prevailing element, nnd any medicine that is everywhere acceptable, aud that is reliable, is a very desirable acquisition. From what we have seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davie’ Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the best method of using it, we quote from the directions: “For common bowel complaints, give one tea spoonfulin a gill of new milk and molasses, in equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose for children,soeording to the 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 liour. “The quickest-way I ever saw the dysentery cured was by taking one spoonful of the Pain Killer in one gill of milk anil molasses stirred well together mid drank hot, at the 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 feartiiis disease would provide themselves with a bottle of this medicine, aud use as occasion required, we believe a great amount of suffering and sickness would bo saved. je!2—2m Special Notice. - 5 2 <■& " => ».-'ar Jlwh W ? “ ■ s ; ro -t _ I tst •-£ ? - * RMil 5 ■B, - aw : ~ a ~ < ■ r- rZJ ■ ~ x d H IL ft* A s g I JHh Q VJW’ 3 • * O s ® ?« w I: Spectacles Rendered Useless. -'Pill* MOST EMINENT PHYSICIANS 1 Oculists and Divines recohitucnd the tue eftlw CORNEA RESTORERS for Fr«by..}.ia or Far or Long Sightedness, or every person who wears spectacles from old age ; Dimness of Vision or Blurring; Overworaedeyes; Astheno pia or Weak Eyes; Epiphora, or Watery Eyes; Pain in the Eye-ball; Amaurosis, or Obscurity of Vision; Photophobia, of Intolerance of Light; Weakness of the Retina and Optip Nerve; Myodesophia, or Specks of Moving Bodies before the eyes; Ophthalmia, or Inflam mation of the Eye and Eyelids, and Imperfect Vision from the effect of Inflammation, etc.; Cataract Eyes; llemiopia, or Partial Blind ness ; and many other Diseases of the Eye.
