THE chief of the Bureau of Statistics
has made his monthly statement of the
exports and imports Of the United
States, and from it we find that the ex-
cess of exports over imports of mer-
chandise is as follows:
Month ended Oct. 81, 1878. 81, 743, 464
Month ended Oct 81, 1877. ........... E,73l, 1856
Ten months ended Oct. 81, 1878. .231 OF, Ol3
Ten months ended Oct. 81, 1877 72l91 .4s9
The comparison of exports and i'm
ports of gold and silver coin and bullion
exhibits the following:
Month ended Oct 81. 1873, excess of
imports. Observation-Disclosures. I,uOo'oUi

Thus it will be seen that our exports
Of merchandise are constantly increas-
ing over our imports, with correspond
ing advantage to our government. Our
imports of gold and silver coin and bull
lion, however, exceed our exports by a
large sum, which is also beneficial to us.

charge of triple damages is illegal; that

the printing of the complaint is illegal
and excessive; the Marshal's fees are
limited to service actually performed.

Where a patentee is accustomed to

titled to recover from an infringement
with interest from time of infringe

The charge for the right to use the

paid, is all that is due under this claim
if it be valid. 1t is probably void, if it
