The Paint, after having stood the Winter is the above situation, has formed a very hardand compact body on both wood and iron work: the wood when cut is hard and very dry; the iron free from every appearance of rust. From the present appearance of the Mineral Brown Paint, its hard, solid, and impenetrable stale, there is every reason to believe that it will defend the wood and iron work for years against the effect of weather and the moisture of the atmosphere ; and we give it as our opinion, that it is ■ useful costing for wood and iron work exposed to the weath,r or to damp, and consider it to be cheaper than any other that can he pro cured.
