The Übiquity of Patents.—Th* Scientific American, in noticing a new patent bier for lowering coffins into grave-, indulge* iv ifie following strain iv reference to patents : The Ufa of this age, most assuredly, moves ou patent inventions. The infant Is wrapped in liueu which has been woveu ou a patent loom, from yarn spun upon a patent frame iinube draws his firs: drop of nourishment from his mother's breast through a patent nip pie shield. The girl fondles a patent doll, tne boy v.'hirls a patent top or plays with a ball Which is made under one ol ttie most valuable patents of the age. In later life we put on a shirt, which, with the rest of our clothes is sewed on a patent machine, with a patent thread, by a patent needle, which comes en veloped in a patent wrapper, and our very hoots arc made of patent leather. *VV. rise in the morning from a patent elipric spring bed, in.do the pateni fastening of our windows! roll op onr patent curtains, opeu thi? parent locks of our door?, which were constructed by patent machinery, and go down to onr coffee, which i; .rrule in a patent pot. We write with patent pens, which we dip into pateal ink In a patent >;aiid. Thus, surrounded by patents we pasaoar life, which is tilled with "gorgeous irea.ns of making a splendid fortune by soma patent Invention of onr own, till at last we arr . laced in a patent bunal case, and lower ed from a patent bier into our final place of lest.

Mr. Branch said the gentiemau from Rich mond had ta trod ueed a very interesting sub ject—namely, the amalgamation ol the two Siicif'ies. lie was opposed to amalgimation unless the proposition cam* fri.m the Central Society. True, they had a beautiful piece of ground,but it would look much betterif it was paid for. If this Society only got 8. ;i> last year trom IG,uu_ members, waere is the money to come trom I Be hoped the gentle m.u trom Kichmoi rt would give some infor mation ou that subject. Mr Maefarlaad said he was in favor of ad journing this importaut matter, in order that the wishes of the Central Society might be as certain, d. Mr. Hranch '/ranted to know if that Society intended lo make au application to amalca mate. Mr. Macfarland said he was uot authorized to make any atatemeal relative to that matter. The Central Society was a large Soeieiy, and he believed their groaads were paid for.' lie though- if tbe union could be effected it would be beueflclal to both, and he desired a union of councils to that end. Mr. Branch was not in favor of union un less it could be miuie pn ■table lo ihe s *iety. At ail events, this w_.s not the proper lime for aatelgamatioa. Tae Chair stated that he ha.l felt indlßnosed to aj.pi v , • rii mi,, uteryrules wi-h to the Assembly, but it raii-t be apparent that the delta.ehua taken too wide a rang,-, and he now c.il.i-d tin- a* ti-;..;..;; vi It..- meeting Io the sub lect immediately before it. Mr. Crump, ol Rlchm nd city, alluded ta bis election to a seal ia 'hi_ highly respe. table body, and ins surprise, on taking km seat, to hear a propo.itiou ot ihe kind preseuied' by the gentleman from Hanov.r, received with so mueb complaisarce. n :.. tiose to i ol* t lemseiv** iato noB-f_.le.ei cc, be had l_ ibing to say. But he thought, it there was an] person who had a word to -ay ia defeLce of the Farmers' Assembly, that be ought to have an opportunity i i Baying it. Tie would, therefore,ra >*• thai tbe whole subject be de ferred until Wednesday night. Mr Cab.il a._ed leave, inrtoie the Ototloa was pu', to call tbe attention ol the Assembly io the Sib section of the .toaatitßtlou, relative loelecious of Farmers* Assembly. He give notice tha*. Uo would oU'er au urueudiiieul If opportunity occurred. Mr. Wickham said that if the meeting ad journ BOW, there would b • uo quorum on the Bucoosdlag night. Bs hoped the mot.oa.-0 postpone would not prevail, and thai ihe sub ject be disposed of at once. After further remark* by Mr Tate, tbe Question of postponing the consideration of thefcubjt-ct was put aid voted down. Mr. Minor, of Albemarle, thought if Mr. Wickham could so change hi* resolution as to provide that, no one could participate in the mass meeting* Bates* be had paid up bis duei", i; would remove one of the greatest objections' to it. Mr. Wickham said h* would cheerfully vol* for such an amendment to ihe Constitution.
