APPLICATION FOR MANpAMus
ON the Secretary OF tho Interior and
the Cnnmi issInner of Rnfenfa.

Ahht VI NhCAhN1s
Mr.. A. Pollock, as solicitor for the plain
tiiIs In the case Of the United States OK rel.
Carl Rumpf and Frederick Graesslcr, this
morning applied to Justice Macarthur for
q mandamus on Henry M. Teller, Secre-
tary Of the Interior, and Edgar M. Marble,
Commissioner of Patents, compelling them
to issue commission TO the petitioners
The papers show that Carl Rumpfi, of
Bormen, Prussia, and Frederick Graesser,
of Cronstadt, Grand Duchy of Baden, claim
that they believe they arc the original in
ventors of certain improvements in dye
stufs, for which they filed their application
of letters patent in the Patent Office March
90, 1850. Before the filing and on
December G, 1870, they received let
ters patent for the same inven-
tion from Great Britain. About De-
cember IS, 1870, an application for letters
patent Of the United States was made by
Rudolph Krugencr, of Germany, and on
February "a, 1880, letters-patent of the
United States for the same invention were
granted Frederick Kohler, also of Germany.
Upon examination 1t appeared to the Com
missioner of Patents that Krugener and
Kohler were prima facie entitled to a
patent under section 1856 of the Revised
Statutes Accordingly an interference was
instituted by the Commissioner between
the parties for the purpose of ascertaining
which was the first inventor, and time was
fixed for the taking of testimony. On May
20, 1882, the petitioners presented their
motion for the appointment of
commission to take testimony
abroad on their behalf to show their iden-
tity with the British patent and the in
vention by them Of the subject matter in
dispute. This motion was denied, and the
petitioners appealed from the examiner to
the Commissioner of Patents, who refused to
issue the commission. Appeal was then
made to the Secretary Of the Interior, and
he affirmed the decision of the Commits
sioner The petitioners further state that
the evidence sought to be introduced is
material and competent under the law ;
that the invention is one of great import
aDce that they believe they are the first
inventors and entitled to a patent
Unless the commission to take evi,
dence abroad in their behalf IS granted
they will be utterly and entirely precluded
from introducing proof showing that the
invention was made by them. They there.
fore pray that mandamus be issued
against the Secretary of the Interior and
Commissioner of Patents, compelling them
to issue the commission.
A rule was ordered to ISSUE by Justice
Macarthur, returnable on the 7th instant
requiring the Secretary and Commissions
to show cause why the mandamus shoult
not issue.

Another suit for DiyOrce.

Mr. A. X. Browne to-day, as attorney for
Patrick Byrne, filed petition for divorce
from his wife, Marie Byrne. The parties
were married in Troy, N Y, December 25,
1865, and subsequently, came to this city to
reside. He charges that Mrs. Byrne, for
more than three years past, has been guilty
of continued and habitual drunkenness, to
the great disgrace, scandal, humiliation
and expense of her husband. He further
says that the habit is confirmed, and when
in such a state she is violent and abusive,
and they have become so frequent that he
can no longer live with her and preserve
his self-respect and manhood.

COME UP, MEN, FROM THE LOW

suggested by a Temperance address deliv
cred by Francis Murphy, the "Blue-Ribbon
orator.
why sit in the dark, damp lowlands.
Peering through binding mists?
Nhy grope your way through caverns
Which the Sunbeams ne'er have kissed?
Why do hear you signing,
As if all hope had fled,
And lifes proud aspirations
Within your hearts were dead?
know the reason, brothers,
You in the lowlands stay;
You re the weak, yet willing captives-
The unresisting prey
VI a subtle, mighty demon,
Who leads you at his will,
ana nolds you down in the darkness
lis the serpent of the STILL"
Why dwell in the vale of danger.
Under the serpent's spell?
why, l1stleSs, float on the current
Whose swift flood leads to hell?
why for naught your life blood barter
ANA stain with guilt your soul?
why look toward an end of ruin
In place of glorious goal?
Come up, men from the lowlandsl
Assert your GOdlike powers;
March up the hill of triumph.
Dwell mid perennial flowers!
The trumpet of God is calling,
Our Captain, Christ, leads on;
Soon, soon, will the mists and darkness.
Give way to a golden dawn.
