Judge Van Wyck’s nomination by tbe demand of his party placed him in a bad dilemma On the one baud was the certainty of bis re election to the Supreme bench for fourteen years, at a salary of $ 1'3,000 per annum, and on the other hand the possibility of a governorship for two years at SIO,OOO a year.

Respectfully, Mr. and Mrs J. W. Noles. The Oldest Patent. The question as to the holder of the oldest patent in this country has brought out from the heirs of Joseph Jencks some additional facts which tend to show that he was the first inventor in this country. Patents granted from the sovereign power of England for land, water and other privileges were not un common in early colonial times. Joseph Jencks of Lynn, Mass., a number of years previous to receiving a patent for an invention of a scythe had been granted one for ‘ ‘an application of wa ter power to mills. ” Biographical notes state that Mr. Jencks introduced to the Massachusetts colony the idea of patent ing inventions, and that he might pro tect and introduce his ideas seems to have been a reason for coming to the new country. The grass scythe patented in 1652 was perhaps the most valuable of his inventions. The improvement over the old English scythe, with its short, thick blade, like a bush scythe, consisted in lengthening the blade, making it thinner and welding a square bar at the back and strengthening it Today this scythe, practically unchang ed, is used in Europe and America. The patent was withheld from Mr. Jencks for nine years, as it was thought to be too valuable to be monopolized.—Hart ford Courant. CA.BTOH.IA.
