To opc its ma'chless beauties
To the worlds admiring view.

Linger but for smiles and sunshine,

Ere the human bud expands
And reveal Che wonlerous favors

During the time | occupied the Office Of Com
missioner Of Patents, Il. II. Eddy, Esq, of Bos-
ton, did business at the Patent Office as Solicitor

success. l regard Mr.. Eddy as one of the best in
formed and most skillful Patent Solicitors in the
United States, and have no hesitation in assuring
inventors that they cannot employ person more
competent and trustworthy, and mora capable OF
putting their applications in a form to secure fol
them early and favorable consideration at the
Patent Office. EDMUND BURKE,
