ROYAL MINT, SETTZMIIIIII, 1825. /Mr MUSHET begs leave to state, that be has v iL• lately obtained a Patent for an improved ManuLcture of SHEATHING COPPEIL ELECTION LAW. This day was published, price 15s. in boards. The invectigation which kd to this measure he undertook at the suggestion of the Navy Board ;—ssho had represented .he proven:el:: of Sheathing Copper As, An object of the deepest. i.::erest to the &kill Navy, and to shipping in general. The subject was of so much impt.rtance that a Council of the loyal Society was rt quested to investi:;ate the c.uses of the rapid decay of Copper Sheathing. Mr. 11loqiet thinks that be has succeeded in manufacturing a species of Copper capable, for a very lengthened period, of with standing this decay:—his Patent Copper being distinguished by uniformity of strength and durability throughout ha whole texture; so that the partial destruction and the rapid and irregular wear, so ren:arkably exhibited by Sheathing manufactured in the ordinary n:arner, are thus provided against. The following facts justify this statement. ASUMMARY of the LAW relative to the ELEC TION of iIiNIBERS of PARLIAMENT, with an APPENDIX, containing forms of Petitions ; and the .

The Navy Board supplied the Patentee with a specimen of Cop-. per from the bottom of the Batavia, a ship of war, taken from the Dutch in the year 1798. The surface of this Sheathing was smooth zntl Lniform, and on comparing the centre of the sheet with the edge altizh had nut been in contact with the water, it was found, thzt after the wear and :ear of twenty-five years it had lost about 42 per Cent. This copper contained a small portion of tin. Ano ther specimen of Sheathing was obtained from the bottom of the Plyntitr.th Yacht, which was coppered in 1796. The wearof this copper was eqvally uniform with the above, and its loss was iu the cc.rse of twenty-seven years found to be only 8 per Cent, This specimen contained a portion of zinc. Thus it is evident, that whatever the causes may be which destroy ordinary Sheathing, they had comparatively little effect in the cases here specified, It has been by alloy In copper with small portions of tin and zinc, that the Patentee has succeeded in obtaining a metal deei dedly superior to common copper : and since by his mode of treat ir,g it, :he stre r.g th and durability of the Patent Sheathing is ren dered unifot m, the conclusion is justifiable, that it is calculated to resist destruction, at least equally with the specimens above etentione d.

In confirmation of this opinion, several vesaeb sheathed with the Patent Metal have returned to the River Thames from the West Indies, after one, two, and three voyages, and the Asia from Cal cutta, after one voyage, all exhibiting the copper, upon their re spective bottoms, as smooth and uniform in its surface, and as clean, as NN hen it was first put on. This appearance, it may be observed, formed the chief charactetistic of the Copper upon the bottom of rise Plymouth Yacht. The Patent Copper, besides, has been used at Liverpool, to a considerable extent, and, as far as the trial has gone, to the entire satisfaction of the purchasers. It must be obvious to the consumers of copper, if Mr. Mushet's Patent Copper possesses the durability of the copper of the Bata via or the Plymouth Yacht, that the weight of old copper (inde pendent of the advantage of greater durability) taken from the snip's bottom, will more than indemnify the purchaser for the ex. tea price per pound. In a comparative trial of common and Patent Copper in sea water, Mr. Mnshet found that the Patent lost in the same given time 25 per Cent. less weight than the common copper. Mr. Musket's Patent Copper is manufactured by the house of Messrs. Williams, Pascoe and Wm. GrenfeU and Co.

RICHARD TURNER, ON HIS REAL JAPAN BLACKING. AS when the Sun's glad beams diffuse Resplendent lustre far and near; So shines your Blacking on my Shoes, Unsullied, splendid, blight, and clear. To Sol what planet can compare? • What morning star shines half so bright? For influence, heat, and light are there. Hail, matchless source of boundless light! The blossom spreads itself to thee, Parent of trees, of flowers, and fruit; And in the eve, the western sea Spontaneous rolls to pay thee suit. But cease, my Muse, this lofty strain, •Nor Suns, nor Stars, nor Seas explore, But to the point revert again, For merit is reserved in store. 'Ti. merit moves me now to write— Why should it languish on my tongue? For merit must be brought to light, And he to whom it does belong. Tonnes, thy name on record stands High on the pinnacle of Fame; Thy lively genius then demands Some little tribute to thy name. The curious Liquid shining Black, The rare invention of thy mind, Was not explored in ages back, Nor even equalled by mankind. This Blacking when it is applied To Boots or Shoes, such lustre yields, That those who use it think with pride Of Tomma of St. George's Fields. 'Tis he, and he alone, that can This matchless composition make; Second his great exertions then, Render'd so useful, for his sake. What, though the rich gay garments boast, And costly preparations use; Yet is their grandeur greatly lost, Without this Blacking on their Shoes. Urge then your footsteps to the place Of this renowned man's abode; His habitation you may trace, By journeying to the London Road. Ladies are particularly invited to recommend their servants to use this highly esteemed Liquid Blacking, being sanctioned by the First Families in the Kingdom. Gentlemen may observe, that this composition, when used for their Gig or Carriage Harness,will produce a brilliant, rich, glossy Black Lustre,and at the same Wile acts as a ?reserver of the Leather.
