I Douglasii, compelling her fleetest aspirants to trail in her In recent investigations of tho collections of dust, bhe leaves an enduring record that stands out in bold defiance to all her success ors Most of the trotters have come down from a few choice mares, united with superior ptallions. The mare that has bred one trotter will breed another to tho same horse under the same favorablo circumstances. Old Kate, tbo dam of Bruno and Brunette, that trotted togother in double harness in 2:25, has bred ten colts to Hambletonian and two or three to other stallions. All that were ever trainod have trot ted low down in the twenties. The produce of this mare must have realized to hor owners for colts sold nearly $30,000. They havo passed through Boveral hands, and probably now rep resent in tho hands of their present owners a capital cost of over $50,000. Wo ought to profit by these examples. The same causes produce similar effects. The dam of Old Kate was a pacer, a very good element in tho blood of troltt-rs. She took kindly to trotting, became fast and was a stayer on the road. Uniting this mare, gifted with perfect action, to Hambletonian, a natural trotter, there were no extremes to overcomo. Conse quently they matched, and their colts came out with the natural easy stroke, and training mado tbo Department, a cone was found marked ioies Douglasii, var. macrocarpa, collected at San Felipe, Cal., November lClh, 1857, with the note, "cone five inches lonp, I. S. N. Ives' Colorado Exp." On referring to the report of Ives' expedition, we find .Mies Douglasii, var. viacrocarpa referred to from the mountains near Sun Felipe. The cone corresponds ex actly with those obtained by Dr. Palmer. Further examination of the range of this form, and of the permanence of the peculiar charac teristics stated is desirable, but it would seem from what we now know ot it, that it deserves to rank as a now species, in which event no moro appropriate name could be found than Abies macrocarpa.

The shrewdest and most experienced Inventore are found among our most steadfast friends and patrons, who fully appreciate our advan tages in bringing valuable inventions to the notice of the publio through the columns of our widely circulated, first-class journals thereby facilitating their introduction, sale and popularity. Foreign Patents. In addition to American Patents, we secure with the assistance of co-operative agents, claims in all foreign countries which grant Patents, including Great Britain, France, Belgium, Prussia, Austria, Victoria, Peru, Bussin.

The principal portion of the patent business of tnls coast nas been done, ana is Btllt Doing done, through our agency. We are familiar with, and have full records, of all former cases, and can more directly judge of the and patentability of inventions discovered here than any other agents. Situated so remote from the seat of goverment, delays are even more dangerous to the invent ors of the Pacifio Coast than to applicants in the Eastern States. Valuable patents may be lost by extra time consumed in trans mitting specifications from Eastern agencies back to this coast for the signature or the inventor. Confidential. We take great pains to preserve secreoy in all confidential matters, and applicants for pat ents can rest assuiea mat tneir communi cations and business transactions will be held strictly confidential by us. Circulars free. Home Counsel. Our long experience in obtaining patents for Inventors on this Coast has familiarized us with the character of most of the inventions already patented; hence we are frequently able to save our patrons tne cost ot a lruitiess application by pointing them to the same tmng already covered by a patent, we are always free to advise applicants of any knowledge we have of previous applicants which will interfere with their obtaining a patent. We invite the acquaintance of all parties con nected with inventions and patent right busi ness, believing that the mutual conference of legitimate business and professional men is mutual gain. Parties in doubt in regard to their rights as assignees of patents, or pur chasers of patented articles, can often receive advise of importance to them from a short call at our office. Remittances of money, made by individual in ventors to the Government, sometimes mis carry, and it has repeatedly happened that applicants nave not only lost tneir money but their inventions also, from this cause and consequent delay.

This compound of the vegetable alteratives, Sarsa parilla, Dock, Stillingia ana Mandrake with the Iodides of Potassium and Iron, makes a most effectual cure of a scries of complalnts whlch are very prevalent and afflicting. It purines the blood, purges out the lurking humors in the system, that undermine health and settle into troublesome disorders. Eruptions of the skin are the appearance on the surface of humors that should be expelled from tha blood. Internal de rangements are the determination ef these Barne humors to some Internal organ, or organs, whose action they derange, and whose substance they disease and destroy. Aran's Sabsafarxlia expels these humors from the blood.
