The India Rubber Business.

On the first page Of this days Telegraph win
be found document well worthy of perusal.
1t is BILL filed in court, in New York city, by
DR.. D. Francis Bacon, against William Judson,
ESQ.,, demanding payment for services rendered,
according to a stipulated agreement, in writing
for the press articles in favor of the Goodyear
India Rubber Monopoly, with which Mr.. judi
son is largely connected and Of which he is the
principal Director and against any alteration
or amendment by Congress Of the present
patent laws.
The bill details some Of the vile means re-
to sway the judgments of members Of Congress,
and to control their action as legislators for the
public veal.
1t is well known that the present patent laws
are miserably defective, and that very great
and general complaint is made in all quarters
Of the existing management Of the Patent
Office Far better would it be to have no patent
laws ut all than to have such as now exist,
which afford very little or no security to the in
ventor. There should be stringent law passed
to severely punish any examiner in the Patent
Office who might procrastinate action on ON APP
plication for patent for o valuable invention
until the specifications of said invention could
be stolen and sent to England, and patent
there obtained for the benefit of somebody else
than the real, but cheated and defrauded author
Of the invention. We do not charge that any
