PATENTS.
Notice to Inventors.

There was never time in the history
of our country when the demand for in
ventions and improvements in the arts
and sciences generally was so great as
now. The conveniences Of mankind in
the factory and work shop, the household,
on the farm, and in official life require
continual accessions to appurtenances
and implements Of each in order to save
labor, time and expense. The yolitical
change in the administration Of govern
ment does not affect the progress of the
American inventor, who, being on the
alert, and ready to perceive the existing
deficiencies, does not permit the af
fairs of government to deter him from
quickly conceiving the remedy TO over
come existing discrepancies. Too great
care can not be exercised in choosing a
competent and skillful attorney to pre-
pare and prosecute an application for
patent. Valuable interests have been
lost and destroyed in innumerable in
stances by the employment Of incompe-
tent counsel, and especially is this ad-
vice applicable to those who adopt the
mo patent, no pay system. Inventors
who entrust their business to this class
of attorneys do so at imminent risk, as

Caesar, ETC., were frequently chosen.
Many of them afterward took the sur
