For Inventions, Trade Marks, or Designs,
 No. 76 STATE ST.s OPPOSITE KnBY ST., Bosrox.
 A FTER an extensive practice of upwards of T1 thirty years, continues to secure Patents in the United States; also in Great Britain France and other foreign countries. Caveats, Specitica- tOns, Assignments, and all papers for Patents ex- ecuted on reasonable terms with dispatch. Re- searches made to determine the validity and utli- ty Of Patents of Inventions, and legal and other advice rendered ill all matters touching tho same Copies of the claims of any patent furnished by remitting one dollar Assignments recorded in Washington.
 No Agency in the United States possesses supe- riOr facilities for obtaining Patents ascertain ing the patentability of inventions. All necessity of journey to Washington to pro. cure patent, and the usual great delay there, here saved inventors.
 3 TESTIMONIALS.
 ''1 regard Mir. Eddy as one of the most success full practitioners with whom have had official in- tercourse.
 CHARLES MASON, Commissioner of Patents" ''I have no hesitation in assuring inventors that they cannot employ man more competent and trustworthy and more capable of putting tkoir ap- plications in form to secure for them an early and favorable consideration at the Patent Office Irr. EDMUND BURKE, Late Commissioner of Patents" "Mr R. H. Eddy has made for me over THIRTY applications for Patents, having been successful in almost every case. Such unmistakable proof of great talent and ability on his part, leads me to recommend all inventors to apply to him to pro- cure their patents, as they may be sure of having the most faithful attention bestowed on their ca- ses, and at very reasonable charges

wedding trip to Paris. They were not
however, the only occupants Of the car
riage. With them were Mr.. Dalton, whom
We knew in former days as Philip Hay
forth, and who had been specially invited
by Mrs. Beauchemp to accompany the
bride and bridegroom on their return to
Winthorpe Hall.
And now the carriage stops beneath the
porch, and in the arched doorway stands a
noble and graceful fgsre-the lady Of thu
mansion. The slanting sunbeams, stream
ing through the stained windows at the
upper end of the oak hall, played upon her
dress Of dark and shining silk, which was
partly covered by a'shawl or mantle Of
black lace while her sweet pale face was
lighted up with affection, and her eyes
were full Of grave gladness. Her fair
hair, Just beginning to be streaked with
silver, was parted over her serene fore
head, and above it rested simple ma
tronly cap Of the finest lace. Emily
Beauchamp was still beautiful woman
beautiful even az when in the early
prime Of youth and love she had stood
in the light Of the newborn day, clad in
her robes of vestal whiteness. The change
in her was but the change from morning
to evening-from spring to autumn /; aud
to some hearts the waning light and the
fading leaves have charm which sun
shine and slriDg-time cannot boast. Hav.
ing fondly but hastily embraced her son
and daughter, she turned to Mr.. Dalton,
and with cordial warmth bade him vel
comc to Woodthorpe Hall. He started
a. tIle sound of the gentle, earnest TONES
which, as if by magic, brought palpably
before him scenes and images which lay far
remote, down the dim vista Of years oh.
scured, almost hidden by later interest and
more pressing cares. He looked in Mrs.
Beauchamp's lace, and new wonder met
him in the glance Of her large brown eyes,
SO full of seriousness and benighity, while
the smooth white hand which yet held his
| in its calm friendly clasp seemed strangely
like one he had often pressed, but which
had always trembled as he held it. What
could all this mean? Was he dreaming
He was aroused from the reverie into
which he had fallen by the very same
voice which had at first arrested his al
tention.
"We must try to become acquainted as
quickly as possible, Mr.. Dalton" said Mrs
Beauchamp, "and learn to be friends for ou1

Rarren Island Phenomena.

From the BrOOKly Oaly AASu"'J
Frank Swift says that it is by no means
rare for dogs that have been passed to 9is
care to come to life again and howl TOR
release, and that they enjoy the freedom OF
Barren Island, and never seek to escape:
The unwritten but strongly asserted law OF
Barren Island prohibits the destruction OF
rtsurrected ours. This explains the presence
of between seven and eight hundred dogs OF
various kinds on the islald. Another sin-
oular development Of the summer season is
The spontaneous incubation Of eggs tnas as
have been sent by the barrelfal from the
New York market as unsaleable. Ihese are
thrown in heap outside the factory as they
arrive day after day, and during the @ exces-
sive hot days of the summer, the employees
have been agreeably surprised to find young
chicks emerging from the pile.

At recent execution of two prisoners
within Kirkdale prison, a very long drop
was used which had the advantage of
breaking the mems neck's with the fall. The
coroner, however, ordered the sheriff to d.
rect the attention of the Government to the
fact that this method did not comply with
the letter of the law, which contemplates
hanging by the neck till the culprit dies
through strangulation, whereas heavy
fall causes death through dislocation Of the

The German Army.

From the Pail Mall Gazette, Sept. IL
The London Times referring to the
part taken by the German Emperor IN
the autumn military man@uvres, OBJ
serves that ruler, and above all, a
German ruler. old enough to have known
Europe under the first Napoleon. may
plead a good excuse for thinking ma
tional army a chief object. and one to
be obtained. if necessary. at the sacrl-
fee of everything else. 1t is only ma
tural. however, that English and Ger
mans should look at German history
from a somewhat different point of view.
It may be enough for a German that
the German Empire has been revived.
and that German armies have once more
asserted their claim to. something more
than an equality with their quondam
conouerers. But we are asking on what
side that infiuenc is to count. Is the
nation to verify its great Chancellor
words and to show itself indeed "peace
loving 2" We have every hope that l,
will: but even so we shall not be thus
easily satisfied. Love of peace may be
among the terms on which willing ad-
mission is given to the comfy of ma
tions, but it cannot by itself, nor in
conjunction with any amount of mater
ial force, determine nations rank. Il
is fair question, therefore, what Ger
mapy has to offer beside these. Wha
other titles can she show to the place
of honor which her patriotic sons arr
not behind-hand in claiming for her
Are there any hard problems of nation

Is her constitution a model which. W

Quoted on free principals The answer
TO all these points must, it is to be fear
ed, be in the negative. The tine ma
come when Germany will throw off th
bonds to which she has submitted nee
essarily but impatiently. when she wi
turn from the arts of war, which ar
lust now occupying her, and will Civ
more attention to the conditions {
peaceful victories. Meanwhile, and i
spite of her peace-loving nature, he
splendid army is still menace to th
peace of others.
