AMERICAN & FOREIGN PATENTS

AMERICAN & FOREIGN PATENTS ED H. EDDY, Solicitor of Patents, Hate khs Agent of the U. $. Patent Office, Wash ington, under the Act of 1887. .)-76 State St., opposite klby St., Boston.
 After an extensive practice of upwards oftwen- ty years, continues to secure Patents in the United States also in Great Britain, France and other foreign countries. Caveats, Specitic,- tions, Assignments, and all Papers or Drawings for Patents, executed in liberal terms, and with despatch. Researches made into American or Foreign works, to determine the validity or util- ity of Patents or Inventioas-and legal or oth- CT advice rendered in all matters touching the same. Copies of the claims of any Patent furn- ished by remitting One Dsllar. Assignments recorded at Washington.
 This Agency is not only the largest in New England, but drought inventors have advan- tages for securing patents, or ascertaining the patentability of inventions, unsurpassed by if not immeasurably superior to, any that can be offered them elsewhere. The testimonials be low given, prove that none is MORE SUCCESSFUL AT THE PATENT OFFICE than the subscriber and as SUCCESS IS THE BEST PROOF OF ADVANTAGES OR ABILITY, he would add that he has abundant reason to believe, and can prove, that at no oth- CT office of the kind are the charges for profess sional services so moderate. The immense prac- tice of the subscriber during twenty years past, has enabled him to accumulate vast collection of specifications and official decisions relative to patents These, besides his extensive library of legal and mechanical works and full accounts of patents granted in the United States and Eu- rope, render him able, beyond question: to of fer superior facilities for obtaining patents. All necessity of a journey to Washington, to procure'a patent, and the usual great delay there are here saved inventors.
 TESTIMONIALS.
 "I regard MT. Eddy as one of the most cnpable and successful practitioners with whom have had official intercourse. CHA'S MASON,'
 Commissioner of Patents. "I have no hesitation in assuring Invensors that they cannot employ person more competent and truyworthy, and more capable of putting their applications in form to for them an early and favorable consideration at the Pa tent Office. EDMUND BURKE,'
 late Commissioner of Patents.
 BosToN, February 8, 1858. "Mr R. H. Eddy has made for me THIRTEEN applications, on all but ONE ofwhich patents have been granted, and that one is nor pending. Such unmistakable proof of great talent and ability On his part leads me to recommend dlI inventors to apply to him to procure their patents, and they may be sure of having the most faithful atten- tion bestowed on their cases, and at very reason able charges.
 JOHN TAGGART." From Sept. 17th, 1857 to June 17th, 1858, the subscriber, in course of his large practice, made, on tuice rejected applications, SIXTEEN APPEALS, EVERY ONE of which was decided in his favor, by the Commissioner of Patents.

 Dr. Chas. M'Lane's Celebrated. Vermifuge and Liver Pills.
 We do not recommend them as universal Cure-alls, but simply for what their name purports, viz:

 THE LIVER PILLS, For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS, all BILIOUS DERANGEMENTs, SICK HEAD-AcHE, &c. In cases of
 FEVER AND AGUE, preparatory to, or after taking Qui- nine, they almost invariably make speedy and permanent cure.
 As specifies for the above men, toned diseases, they are Unrivaled, and never known to fail when ad- ministered in accordance with the directions.
 Their unprecedented popularity has induced the proprietors,
 FLEMING BROTHERS,
 PITTSBURGH, PA.
 to dispose of their Drug business, in which they have been success fully engaged for the last Twenty Years, and they will now give their undivided time and attention to their manufacture. And being de- terrnined that Dr. M'Lane's Cele- brated Verrnifuge and Liver Pills shall continue to occupy the high position they now hold among the great remedies of the day, they will continue to spare neither time nor expense in procuring the Best and Purest material, and com pound them in the most thorough manner. Address all orders to
 FLEMING BR0S., Pittsburgh, Pa. P.S. Dealers and Physicians ordering from others than Flemin. Bros, will do well to write their orders distinctly, and trke but Dr. M Lsne's, prepared by Fleming Bros, Pits5uryh, Pn To those wishing 10 give them trial. will forward per mail, post paid, to any part of the United staes box of Pills for twelve three-cent postage stamps vial of Vermuge for fourteen hreecent stamps All orders from Canad must be accompanied bv twenty cents extra.
