In the intervening years, the patent office had become part of the State Department, and then the Department of the Interior. The 1835 fire had destroyed at least two-thirds of their records, so applications were required in duplicate.
The bigger difference was in how patents were viewed by the general population; mistrust of patents in the late 1800s meant that people viewed them as a way to create a monopoly, which contributed to the unanimous passage of the Sherman Antitrust Act.

Difference between patent and patent pending?
A patent is a grant from a patent office, such as the United States Patent Office. "Patent Pending" is a phrase that an application for a patent has been filed and is in some stage in the process of obtaining a patent. Thus, a patent can be presently enforced while a patent that is merely pending is unenforceable but can mature into a patent that can be enforced. Once the pending patent matures, the patent owner can sue for back damages or reasonable royalties starting from the filing date of the patent.
