. TEE GoLp ExcrrEMENT.-Itis is rarely the case that SO much excitement is produced in the money market, as when gold commenced fall ing lately. Every one who had gold dollal was for getting the most he could for it. The office of J. w. Davis Co.,, N. Y. was the thea ter of several amusing scenes ::
 A charcoal man, whose entire suit, notwith standing the high price of rags, would have been dear at five dollars, enters.
 What d. ye give for gold ?"
 "One hundred and sixty-6ve."
 "Ah be-gorra, I'll not sell for that any howl (Exit.5
 (Re.enters after fifteen minutes absence, our' ing which time he had visited several other es- tablishments.) ,,,
 Sure I'll take sixty-ive for the gold"
 fAaton,shment of half dozen sellers of whom Daviss clerks are buying at sixty.two.)
 e Can't take it now sir. at over sixty"
 fChuckIe of sellers over the saving of two per cent-indignation of vender of charcoal "Ah bad luck to it, I'll go back to Misther Clapp for ths sixtywhan he offered me- (Exit.)
 After the lapse of few moments enter char coal dealer once more, with Q flush of anxiety showing through the coating of coal dust on his visage.
 "Arrah yees may take the gold av me for q hundher and sixty, if yell give no more."
 Can't give that now sir take it at hun dred and ffty-fve."
 "Divil bit (enraged) shure didn't ye offer me hundred and sixty only five minutes agoi"
 Yes, but you refused, and the price has fallen since."
 Pat in despair, draws forth an old mitten from some hidden recess in his garments, and takes out ten twenty dollar pieces, and receives his roll of greenbacks.

A FTER an extensive practice of upwards kA of twenty years, continues to secure Pat ents in the United States also in Great Brit ain, France and other foreign countries. Ga. yeats, Specifications, Bonds, Assignments. and all Papers or Drawings for Patents, executed on liberal terms, ani with despatch. Research es made into American or Foreign works, to determine the validity or utility of Patents or Inventions-and legal or other advice render ed in all matters touching the same. Copies of the claims of any Patent furnished by re- hitting One Dollar. Assignments recorded at Washington.
 The Agency is not only the largest in New England but through it inventors have advan- tages for securing Patents, of ascertaing the patentability of inventions, unsurpassed by, if not immeasurably superior to, any which can be offered them elsewhere The Testimonials below given prove that none is MORE SUC- CESSFUL AT THE PATENT OFFICE. than the subscriber: aud as SUCCESS IS THE BEST PROOF OF ADVANTAGES AND ABIL- ITY, he would add that he has abundant req son 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 practice of the subscriber during twenty years past, has enabled him to accumulate vast col. lection of specifications and official decisions relative to patents.
 These. besides his extensive library illegal and mechanical works, and full accounts of patents granted ill 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 patent, and the usual great delay there. are here saved inventors.

 II regard Mir. Eddy as one of the most capa- ble and successful practitioners, with whom l have had official intercourse.
 CHARLES MASON,
 Commissioner of Patents. have no hesitation in assuring inventors that they cannot employ person more conpe- tent and trustscorthy, and more capable of put ting their applications in form to secure for them an early and favorable consideration at the Patent Ofice.''

 Comm ssoner of Patents. "Mr. R. H. Eddy has made for mo THIR TEEN applications, on all but ONE of which patents have been granted: and that is no,c pe,lding Such unmi>takable proof of great talent and ability on his part leads me to rec ommend dU inventors to apply to him to pro- cure their patents, as they may be sure of hay- ing the most faithful attention bestowed on ther cases, and at very reasonable charges
