From the Aroostook Times,
Autumn.


Autumn.
ny yERI1As.
'Tis October. and the Autumn
Ruleth earth supremacy now,
And the withere leaves are falling,
Falling from each le.f and bough.
See how thirkly they are lying,
Lying scattered DER the ground,
See how thickly they are flying
On the winds that murmur round.
Birds have left their forest bowers.
That they thronged in summtr time,
Where they sang in gayer hours,
When the year was in its prime.
Now no more their notes are ringing,
Over forests, hills and plaius;
But when spring comes hitber winging.
They'll renew those sameswect strains.
They have left us with good reason,
They have sought warmer cline,
But they will return in season
Fer another bright spring time,
Autumn reigncth. ii. October,
Shor; and heettng is the day;
And the earth is sad and sober
'Tis the uoath of blooms decay.
Nearly leafless are the bowers,
That were budding bowers in May;
Faded are the beauteous flowers,
They were first to pass away.
l,usy bees no more are humming.
And they hasten home no more,
Over hill and valley coming.
Laden with their treasured store,
And hear the chill winds signing
Autumn winds, so drear aud cold;
Time and Seasons swift are flying,
And the year is growing old.
And view the distant wildwood
Fading slowly. day by day
Wood that | have seen in childhood.
Bud and bloom and then decay.
Soon the earth. disrobed of beauty.
That she wore when June was here.
Will the Winter pay her duty,
"As the ruler of the year.

X. II. EDDY,
Solicitor of Patent, late Agent of U. S. Patent
Office, Washington, (under the Act of 1879 IS
State Sreet.opI oste Kilby Street, Boston.
After an extensive practice Of upwards of
twenty years, continues TO secure Patents in the
United states; also in Great Britain, France and
other foreign countries. Caveats, Specifications,
Bonds, Assignments, and all Papers or Drawings
for Patents, executed en- liberal terms, and with
despatch. Researches made into American or
Foreign works, to determine the validity utility
of Patents or Inventious-and legal or other adj
vice rendered in all matters touching the same.
Copies of the claims of any Patent furnished by
renting One Dollar. Assignments recorded at
Washington.
The Agency is not only the largest in New Eng
land, bat through it inventors have advantages for
securing Patents, of ascertaining the patent ability
ofinventons unsurpassed by, if not lmmeasurably
superior to, any which can be offered them
elsewhere. The Testimonials below given prove
that NONE ARE MORE SUCCESSFUL AT
THE PATENT OFFICE than the subscriber;
and as SUCCESS is THE BEST PROOF OF
ADVANTAGES AND ABILITY, he would
add, that he has abundant reason to believe, and
can rrove that at no other office of the kind are
the charges for professional services moderate.
The immense practice of the subscriber during
twenty years past, has enabled him to accumulate
a vast collection of specifications and official de-
cisions relative to patents These, besides his
tensive library OF legal and mechanical works,
and full accounts of patents granted in the United
States and Europe render him able, beyond 9ues-
ton to offer superior facilities for obtaining Pa
tents.
All necessity of journey to Washington, to
procure patent, and the usual delay there, are
here saved in ventors.
