NEWSPAPERS Their value is by no means apprecia­ ted, but the rapidity with which peo­ ple are waking Hp to their necessity andutefulness is one of the significant signa ofjrtba tlm^f. few families are now content with a siugle newspaper. The thirst for knowledge Is not easily satiated, and books, though useftd--yea, absolutely necessary in their place, fall to ineet the demands of youth or age. The village uewapaper is eagerly sought and its contents »s eagerly de­ voured. Then comes the demand for the country news, state news, natioual and foreign news. Xext to the politi­ cal come the literary and then the scientific journals. Lastly, and above all. come the moral and religious journ­ als. This variety1 is demanded to satis­ fy the cravings of the active mind. Newspapers are also valuable to ma­ terial prosperity. They advertise the village, county, or locality. They spread before the reader a maf) ou which may be traced character, design, progress. If a stranger calls ait an ho­ tel he first inquires for tfte village newspaper: if a friend comes from a distance, the very nextw'thing after a family greeting, he iuquires for your village or county ilcwspaper, and you feel discomfited If y«n are unable to find a late copy, and^onfouuded if you are compelled to sa$r you do not take It. j?

WA8IUKGTON, D. O., April 29th, 1871 There is no doubt of it. .General Belknap with hi* broad crimsoned face, adorned with a fiery red beard, his rounded form toweling above the average of humanity is the saddest spectacle at the Capitol. We would except the Washington monument„but even that unfinished shaft still has friends and on bright warm days twiu- icles and smiles in the sunlight. But Belknap's friends have Vanished and his smiles have melted into sombre grins. Amidst the bustle and busy en­ terprise of this great city, artridst its political and social excitements, sur­ rounded by all the splendor and beanty of the Capital this fallen minister can fitly exclaim: "Amidst the crowd, the hum, tho «hooks of men, T» h^ar, to see, to feel, and to possess. And roam along..the world's tired denizen; With none who bless us, none whom we can bless, None that with kindred consciousness en­ dured, , ' If we were not, would seem to smile the less Of all that flattered, followed, sought and sued This is to IKS alone; this, this is solitude." And in this;solltude his only compan­ ions are las wife and his legal advisers. Iu his walks he takes the sparsely traveled streets and when he meets an old abQuaintanoe, he smiles affectedly, bows meekly, chats but a moment aud then hurries on. When ever approached upon the subject of his downfall, he has stereotyped this phrase which ho in­ violably uses, "That is a thing of the long, long ago. It Is the skeleton ot my heme. About It, my lips are sealed." Mrs. Belknap Is seldom seen, never in fact, by the public. The charms of society have vanished from her view. She is a deposed queeu of tho social world, and the snobbish satelites who revolved about her in so- oi:i| splendor, have voluntarily slipped ht»ir orbits, and are seen no more in ief presence. She has builded for her- «flf, thoughtlessly perhaps, a cave of perpetual gloom, and in it she must reside through life as a sad hermitess. VThe m<»t positive policy of the pres- t administration has been Its system ^dlan JUtiatmeut, • The policy h«is raeted a great deal of persoual at­ tention from the President, whose prithe object in adopting it was to re­ move all the wild tribes into the In­ dian Territory as a permanent home, where they were to bo educated and civilized by the different christian de­ nominations In the land. This scheme has been In a measure successful; but the recent passage of the bill by the lloule, transferring the In­ dian Bureau to the War Department, is looked upon by some as a check to the present system. The bill transfers the entire Bureau to the Military and places the retired army officers in charge'of the civil service of the tame. It passed the House by a large major­ ity, but tho indications are that it will not get through the Senate, and even should it bo sanctioned by that body, it may be made a dead letter by the veto of the President who is opposed to the measure on the grounds that It Is not consbnaht with hts peace pol­ icy. ' The President for many weeks was shadowed by a madman who constant­ ly dogged hia footsteps. One day this man hissed a terrible threat iu the President's ear, as he was taken his usual walk down Pennsylvania Avenue, and immediately afterwards he was handed over to the police and sent to the Insane Asylum. During the inves­ tigation into the affkirs of that Insti* tutiou, the man having partially re- cove redj hts balance of mind, wa%. placed on the witness stand. He saidt while in the Asylnm he Was often Visited by the President in the n^ght time, and on being asked how the Chief Magistrate gained access (Mf him he replied "My door being lo#»d his spirit came through the key Hole, and conversed with me aboutffthe third tejtn." He will probably be remanded to the Asylum. /Jf pearly one million degpirs iq silver ^oinhave been paid out for the re- ademption of the fraofiojaal currency. The small paper money his become so scarce ho re as to inconvenience bus! neM^ men, and the one greenbacks for it. Some of the merchants became so hard pressed for small, change as to be forced into the ingenious ruse of team­ ing one-dollar notes £<1 twain and pre­ senting them at tlie^ Treasury for re­ demption. In th& way ctfMslderable fractional currejSfey was secured. Among thc^Best men of both parties in Congrej^there is a strong opposi­ tion to"jme present system of Star Chamber Investigation now being preiifed by many of the Committees. iSfreral resolutions will soon be intro­ duced demanding that the Committee roam doors be thrown open to the pub­ lic, and the truth in its naked simplici­ ty be made known. At present, unclean rumors are constantly typing whispered Jl Bgsk NO. 41. through the key holes of the Commit­ tee rooms, for the purpose of stimula­ ting the popular appetite for scandal, and this condition of things has begun to excite pretty general nausea among all fair-minded men* The experiment with the Lay tor- peda in tho Potomac recently, proves it to be the most formidable weapon of naval warcfare ever invented. It is shaped like a cigar and is some twenty feet in lengthby thirty-one inches iu diameter at the largest part ; being made of boiler-plate iron. She carries a reservoir of carbonic acid gas for mo­ tive power, an engine to operate a pro­ peller and steering apparatus, the whole thing being controled by elec­ trical machinery. 8he can carry a large amount of dynamite or other powerful eruptivea which are exploded by an electric key attaohed to wires reaching from the shore to the destruct­ ive craft. It can be sent quietly and noiselessly out from the shore into the strongest fleets, and by the explosion cause terrible havoc, The experiment was eminently successful and hereafter it will be counted among the foremost of the world's peace-makers.

Avery within a few days owing to the immense iufluence of prominent citizens and politicians iu his favor. Col. Dyer, the entire Missouri delega­ tion in Congress aud all of the Grand Jury that convicted him are sueing for Executive Clemency in his behalf* Aside from this the pathetic pleadings of his wife are haviug a strong effect.-- Belknap's council asked for a postpone- of the impeachment trial until the as­ sembling of the next Congress. The request was unanimously denied. Ar­ guments iu regard to the jurisdiction of the Senate will now be presented and if that body over rule the plea, the trial will be commenced immediately. If no jurisdiction is, conceded the im­ peachment will be egfod and , tfaa spondent wlfTbe seftlnro the Oietr; Court for trial.--Justice Carter has de­ cided that Kilbourti shall be released from the custody of the House and turned over to the tender mercies of the Criminal Court. FATRNts, ARTICLE M. To give some idea of the wonderful Increase of business there hai been it the Patent Office, it may be stated th there were only 473 Patent* issued lit] the year 1840, while there were 48i| issued for the week, alohe ending Feb.1 .22,1876. Daring the yearl849 the total] receipts of the Office were $80,76 J J while the receipts for the month of! March, 1876, were #80,495. An applies- j tion for a patent consists of a fee of 915,00, petition, oath, specification,' model and drawing. The petition is a mere request that a patent may b« issued to the application. The specifi­ cation is a description of the invention and must be so fnll, clear and exact, that any one skilled in the art to which the invention relates, with the assist­ ance of the drawings, can make and use the same, without any experiments on his part. If the specification is not this clear, the Courts will declare the patent null and void if it Is ever brought before them. At the end of the specification, and forming part ot it, is the claim, in which the inventor se t» forth what lie claims as new, and to exactly what he claims, the Courta in deciding upon the questions of iu- fringeiueut or validity, rigidly hold him. In case a suit is brought against some one for making or selling an arti­ cle or machine,, which an inventor con­ siders as an infringement upon hia patent, the Courts do not stop to ask how new or meritorious the patented invention Is, or how much the inveatwr might have claimed, but simply look to 6eewhathe actually doe ? claim. Tho oath must declare that the applicant believes himself to be the first and original inventor of tho descibed Im­ provement, and that he does not know or believe that the same was ever be­ fore known or wed,--hence It will be seen tliat ouly the iuventor or Inven­ tor* can make application for a patent. In case of the death of the inventor,his administrator can have the patent issuo to him. The model should not exceed twelve incites square, and should show the invention perfectly. The drawings are made from the model, and should show all of its parts so perfectly that . MARENGO. : --One Daniel Duar hired a livery rig to go over north Wednesday mor­ ning, and as he was crossing the K. B. track his horse took fright at an en­ gine striding on the track near the Crbssiogs, ran away with- him, wrecking the carriage badly, and leaving Daniel with a broken leg. --B. Shearer, son of Manrlfl Shearer, living about a mile west o( the village, and L. S. Jones, on Friday of last week dug out and bagged 12 young wolves. The mother of the young wolvos es­ caped. 0120 for a few hours work, ts what printers would call a "fat take," as It really was for the boys. Now If they can succeed Inklllingtheold wolf, it may save another big bounty ues| Spring, --A- young lad, son of Mrs Druce while playing wltK powdter Monday evening, was quit severly burued lii the face, by premature explosion of the powder. Ilia, face was badly blis­ tered, eye-brows singed oft, and he was so badly demoralized that he wauted some one to put him out of existence, so intense was the pain of his burns. Another practical warning to young boys to let powder alone. It's safe enough if it is not handled. --Dr. Green hitched Up a sj^n of colts to take a ride out in the country Thursday morning; he drove around to his house, aud got out a mqrnont, and as he went to get in h|U*i,\'!fy again, ' the colts took fright add started sud­ denly off on a run, Jteitviug the Doctor to cogitate and wonder on the uncer­ tainty of horse-flesh.

B&~On the road to Epsom, England a moustached youth, on the top, of a drag,evidently ambitious of being mis­ taken for "an ofdlcer," thus saluted a fat coachman, w^ho was gravely driving his master and family: "Holloa, yon sir! where's your shirt collar ?IIow dare yow come #6 the Derby without a shirt collar*? Jehu growled forth, without lifting his eyes from hia horses, * *Ow the dooce could 1 have a shirt collar wheu your mother haa not sent howe my washing." 9GTA man tamed a dog that some* body sent him, nntil the dootle creature would eat oft his hand.

AB soon as the application Is filed in the Otfice, it Is sent to tbe proper Examiner, whose duty It la to thoroughly examine as to the patenta­ bility of the invention, and If he tad* that it is uew and useful he grant* a patent. If tho invoutiouis old, trivial, or for Immoral purposes, and Is vorf frequently the case, a patent is refused. The fcrxumtiters are neither called up* ^ieclile whether the Improvement 1 than what has gone before, sufhl It Is. Ilaviug once do- ^^ithat the improvement Is now onttntefttl, mid not merely the result of good workmanship or judgment, they imi«t ItNiie ilie patent. If an Examiner does wrongfully refuse a patent, as is very frequently the casertbe applioant cau appeal from his decision to tho Board of Examiners, who, tf tbey think the Examiner Is wrong, Veveieo his decisiou and order the patent to issue. If the Board affirms the Exami­ ner's decision, the applicant cau ap­ peal to the Commissioner of Patents, in person, and In case he is dissatisfied with his decision, he cau appeal to tho Supreme Court of the District - of Columbia, and from this Court to tho Court of Eqnitv, Patents were for- muly granted for 14 years, with tho pr^filf^e of an"e*2Tfctia|ou of 1 years, the Ccuumissioner, and as many more extensions as they could get from Congress. But extensions have now been abolished, and pateuts are grant* ed for 17 years, after which tho Inven­ tion becomes public property.
