THE PROPOSED ,
.PATENT LAW
AMENDMENT B
(From the Expositor.)
We have been favoured with a copy cf the printed
Bill, the result of the labours of Lord Greteville's Com-
mittee on the patent laws. The following. is a „we
mary of the leading features of the proposed measure :
The Lord Chancellor, the Master of the Rolls, the
Attorney and Solicitor-General for England, the
Lord Advocate for Scotland, thg Attorney- Gee
neral for Ireland, and such otherckerio.n as the
Crown may appoint, are to be " ommtssioners of
Patent Inventions," of whom three are to form a quorum,
the Lord Chancellor or Master of the Rolls being one.
Any one wishing to secure an invention is first to
lodge a petition and declaration, accompanied by a pro-
visional specification. These, when lodged, are to be
consecutively numbered, and the application is then re-
ferred to one of the law officers.
The provisional specification is immediately referred
to examiners appointed by the Commission, who are,
if satisfied thereon, to certify that the specification de-
scribes the nature of the invention. Upon filing this
certificate at the Great Seal Patent-office, the invention
is provisionally protected for six months; and this pro-
tection may be extended to nine months. If the exa-
aminer consider the title too large, or insufficient,
amendments may be required or allowed by him, and
against his decision the applicant has the right of appeal
to the law officers. Persons who have provisionally re-
gistered under the existing Protection Act are further
protected by filing their present certificates.
On obtaining provisional protection, the applicant may
proceed to use and publish his invention without preju-
dice to letters patent; and the patent may bear date from
the day of the application. This also extends to the
protection at present enjoyed by exhibitors at the Great
Exhibition. The patent must, however, have passed the
seal before the expiration of the protection, otherwise
the patent will be of no effect.
No proceedings can be had for infringements com-
mitted prior to the actual sealing of the patent.
The applicant may, as soon after provisional registra-
tion as he sees fit, give notice at the Commissioners'-
office of his intention to apply for letters patent, and the
application shall thereupon be advertised; and persons
may then oppose by leaving written objections to the
grant within a specified time. The objections
are referred to one or more of the examiners,
who are to inquire as to novelty and as to other
points, and who may, if they think fit, grant both appli-
cant and opponent a copy of the report. Either party
has the right of appeal to the law officer, who may make
such order as he sees just; and he may also alter and
amend the title, provisional specification, certificate, or
appeal accordingly. He may also order by whom the
costs of appeal and reference are to be paid.
On receipt of the report the law officer grants a war-
rant, with the usual instructions for sealing the patent.
The warrant is an authority for making and sealing let-
ters patent for the United Kingdom of Great Britain
and Ireland; end upon delivery of such warrant at the
Great Seal-office a patent for the three kingdoms is
granted. There are, therefore, no intermediate steps
between the law officer's warrant and the seal, as here-
tofore. The warrant must go to the Great Seal-office
within three months, otherwise no patent can be obtained
under it.
Patents granted under the Act are to be void unless
there be paid. on or before the expiration of three years,
the sum of 401,, and a further sum of 801. on or before
the expiration of seven years. These sums are addi-
tional to the fees payable on or before the grant, and
to stamp duties, the amounts of all of which we give
below.
Persons having patenf4 for England at the passing of
this Act, and if
,the invention has not been published,
may apply for an extension to Scotland or Ireland; and
the Queen may order such extended patent to be sealed
free of any charge, but subject to the payments referred
to at the end of three and seven years.
The uss or publication of an invention in a foreign
country is a bar to a valid patent, so that patents of im-
portation will henceforth cease unless the applicant ob-
tains provisional protection before the invention is used
or published abroad.
The Bill provides for the due depositing of the speci-
fication and drawings, and orders an index to be kept.
The specifications are also to be printed and sold, and
such printed copies aro to be admitted as evidence.
Copies are also to be given to the public libraries, and a
number, not exceeding twenty-five, is allowed to the
grantee, without payment.
Pre-existing specifications may be removed from the
present offices and deposited at an office to be provided;
where also future specifications are to be lodged fur
public inspection.
A book, called " The Register of Patents," is to be
kept at the Great Seal-office, which is to record the
filing of specifications, disclaimers, amendments, exten-
sions, confirmations, or the expiry, vacating, or cancel-
ling of patents, and such other matters affecting the va-
lidity as the Commissioners may direct. A copy of this
book is to be open to the public.
At the same office there is to be kept a took entitled
" The Register of Proprietors," where may be entered,
in manner as the Commissioners see fit, the assignment of
whole or part of a patent, any licence to use, giving the
name and district of the licensee, and of all matters relat-
ing to the proprietorship of the patent; and any person
may have a copy of entries in such book on payment of
the proper fee; and such copy shall be good in evidence.
The patentee is to be considered sole proprietor until
entry of the assignment or licence shall have been
made in such book. A copy of this book is open to
public inspection.
The right of entering disclaimers and memoranda of
alterations, as also the law regarding an extension or
prolonge.tion,Jemain pretty much as at present. An
extension or prolongation, however, are only available
for the part of the United Kingdom for which the
original patent was granted.
In reference to infringements the defendant, on plead-
ing, is to deliver particulars of the objections on which
ho means to rely, and no objection snail bo raised at
the trial other than has been contained in the parti-
culars of objections. The particulars must likewise
state in what manner the invention is alleged to have
been used or published prior to the date of the patent.
Persons whose offices are to be abolished by tho pass-
ing of the Act may receive compensation either by an-
nuity or a gross sum, at the discretion of the Com-
missioners.
The following is a schedule of fees to be, paid for a
natent for the three kingdoms:—

taking Frampton's Pill of Health, I feel it a duty that I owe to Ye
of

and the public to send you the following statement. For upwards
•0 years I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent medicine.
had long preTionsly been afflicted with headache and indigestion,
but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills,
w inform you that a few doses gave me great relief; and during
this
long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other
medicine ; and I have the happineos of saying that I never had a
better state of health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg
further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and

Such is a general sketch of the new Bill. As regards
the facility by which poor inventors may obtain a patent,
it is a great step. Any heel fide inventor, on payment
of 51., may have six months' protection, provided his in-
vention appears to the examiners to be fairly set forth ;
and he may, by paying altogether 251., have a patent
for the three kingdoms for three years. He has thus,
for a small amount, the power to test his invention, so
that the arrangement is, on this point, a very great im-
provement. We regret to see that the specifications of
useless inventions are not to be specially cancelled, but
we assume that in effect the non-payment of the sums
at the periods stated will be held as a virtual acknow-
ledgment of failure, and be considered as such in disputed
cases.
We adhere to the opinion wo expressed last week,stshea,t
the patent ought to be granted only after a sucheeaviinugt
experiment has been made, the applicanshould be
protection in the meantime, and that a Pat"stos ha
result will
a reward, but, if abandoned patents are not used
against successful discoveries, much the same
one or other of the
be attained. We trust, however,
conditions will be insisted on in Parliament, for we hold
a, mach importance as the
some such provision of nearly
question of fees.
As a whole, we accept tho proposed Act with grati-
tude, and as a large measure of reform. Hereafter any
inventor will be able to treat openly with capitalists, and
make decidedly
.better terms for himself than when, us
heretofore, he risked the loas of his patent by confiding
his secret to any one with whom he desired to treat.
Ho will now deal in open market, and with a reasonable
time for negotiation and subsequent experiment. The
capitalist will, therefore, be disposed to deal on more
liberal terms to the inventor than where ho was called
upon to expend large sums before he could form any
sound opinion of the actual value of the invention. We
only hope that no factious opposition will delay the im-
mediate passing of the Act through both Houses, as well
for the sake of those who, under protection, have risked
the loss of their rights as inventors, by exhibiting at the
People's Palace, on the faith of being enabled to obtain
a cheap patent within the time allowed them, as for
those whose energies have been stimulated by the Expo-
sition, and whose discoveries resulting therefrom we hope
to hail as the first fruit of the new law.

The speech of the PRESIDENT at Poitiers is consi-
dered by the Bourbomst :journals as a sort of retrac-
tation of the speech at Dijon, but it has failed in con-
ciliating the Legitimatist faction, who observe that
the speech at Dijon was the speech of the PRESIDENT,
whilst that of Poitiers is the speech of the Ministers.
The National thus comments on the PRESIDENT'S
speech :
We say to the President :—You have already made
many speeches, and is the country more tranquil, trade
more prosperous, security better guaranteed, stability
more firmly established? No; and the reason probably
is that you have not as yet said what you ought
to &ay, or rather bseause you said the contrary.
Ah, if some day you made the following
declaration—l took an oath and I will keep

i!. I pledged my bonour to observe the Constitution,
and I will do so. The first President of the Republic,
I owe it to the Republic not to accept under any pre-
text P. continuation of my power, since that would be an
attack on the Republican principle. I will consequently
give up in 1852 the deposit confided to me, and will so
bequeath a great example to my successors. Oh, if you
were to make such a declaration, if ycu so disavowed
the projects of acme of your friends, you would see un-
easiness disappear, confidence return, order and public
tranquillity revive. We who are forced to blame you
would then applaud. Try.
