New-York Air Furnace.
PETER T. CURTENIUS, & Co.
HAVE repaired the New-York
Air Furnace, and have procured the best workmen, together with the necessary apparatus to carry on the Manufactory of Cast Iron in the completest and best manner.
Castings made in an Air Furnace, are allowed by all who are acquainted with the nature of Foundries, to be better than what is made in a Blast Furnace; because, in an Air Furnace the ware is made out of the softest and best Pig Metal, and, by its being melted a second time, the scoria, or dross, is expelled, and nothing but the pure Metal remains. In a blast Furnace, the Castings are made out of the first smelting of the crude Ore, and are more or less mixed with dross, which subjects the ware to be rough and spongy, and often full of cold shuts: the difference, in short, is nearly the same as that between refined and Bloomery Iron.—The ware they have made is allowed, by good judges to be as light, as smooth, and as good as any imported from Europe. This consideration alone, of the ware being as good as the foreign, is a sufficient inducement for an American, to give the preference to the manufactures of his own country; but a more powerful argument for the purchaser to give it a preference is, that it can be afforded (and will be sold) cheaper than the imported ware, all foreign castings being subject to a duty of six per cent, on importation.
The WARE, manufactured at this FURNACE, consists of the following Articles, viz.
  POTS and Kettles of various sizes, from one to fifteen gallons,  Chimney-Backs, Ships Cabouzes of the new construction, with bake ovens in them, in which the same fire that roasts and boils the meat, bakes the bread,    Tea Kettles, Fry Pans, Skillets, Griddles, Pot-Asb Kettles and Coolers, Whaling Kettles, Boilers for tallow-chandlers and sugar-works, Stoves for sugar-bakers, Mill-Cases, Cast Bars for sugar-works and distilleries, Rollers and Shears for fluting-mills, Hearth and Jambs Plates, cast agreeable to any pattern that may be sent; Close Stoves for workshops, Franklin Stoves neatly decorated with carved work, Bath Stove-Grates elegantly ornamented with carvings,  Mill Rounds and Gudgeons, Saw-Mill Cranks, Calcining Plates for making pearl-ashes, Cast Iron Screws for fulling and paper-mills, Fullers Plates cast to any size that may be wanted, Sash-Weights, Forge-Hammers and Anvils, Plow-Plates, Half-Hundreds, Quarters, and seven Pound Weights, Cart, Waggon, Coach, Phaeton, Chair, and Sulkey Boxes, &c. &c.   N. B. Persons who want any Backs or other Ware, cast agreeable to particular patterns, will please to send their patterns and orders to the FURNACE, near Mr. Atlee's Brewery, or leave them at the house of Peter T. Curtenius, No. 48, Great Dock-Street, near the Exchange. New-York, October 18, 1787. 37-42

State of New-York, Court of Admiralty.
Charles March, Timothy Penny, Abraham P. Mendes, John Thompson, Gad Wells, and others, Libellants.
Sundry goods, Wares and Merchandize, saved out of a vessel having no person on board, by John Shannon and others, and claimed by Gibbon Bourke, John Donnan and the said John Shannon and others, and claimed in part by Daniel McCormick for Hyem Cohen, and by William Cock for Richard Hall.
WHEREAS Charles March, Timothy Penny, Abraham P. Mendes, John Thompson, Matthew Pergo, John Howard, Gad Wells, Samuel Eells, and Peter Noyes, junior, as passengers, and Malcom Taylor, and Henry Harris, as mariners on board of the brigantine Port Roseway, have filed a libel in the said court, setting forth that in and with the said brigantine, in a voyage from the island of Jamaica to New-London, in Connecticut, on or about the first day of August, in the year 1784, in the latitude of 23 degrees and 30 minutes north, or thereabouts, they discovered, and went to a vessel with only her foremast standing, and having no living creature on board, and five feet water in her hold; and that they saved and took out of the said brigantine, sundry goods, wares, and merchandise, which were by them brought to the port of New-York, and there sold at public vendue, by order of Gibbon Burke, and John Donnan, of the said city, merchants: And whereas it appears by return of sales of Anthony L. Bleeker, that the said merchandise so saved and brought to the port of New-York, consisted of the following articles, viz. Six hogsheads of sugar, the marks & numbers whereof were defaced, one hogshead of sugar marked F. No. 102, one other hogshead of sugar marked WB. No. 185, one other hogshead of sugar, marked F.S. one hogshead of spirits, marked E. (enclosed by a diamond) No. 6, one other hogshead of spirits, marked B. E. No. 4, one other hogshead of spirits, marked B. E. No. 5, one other hogshead of spirits, marked B. R. No. 3, one other hogshead of spirits, marked WB. No. 7, one other hogshead of spirits, marked WB. No. 8, and one other hogshead of spirits, marked WB. No. 9, thirteen bales of cotton wool without mark or number, one bale of cotton wool, marked B. three other bales of cotton wool, marked H.C. fifteen other bales of cotton wool, the marks & numbers whereof were defaced; four whole bales, four half bales, four broken bales, and four bundles of cotton wool, the marks whereof, if any had been, could not be discovered, a quantity of logwood, and five hundred and fifty-one feet of mahogany. And whereas, by an advertisement formerly published in one of the news papers printed in New-York, the said goods and merchandise were said to have been saved and taken on board of the said brigantine Port Roseway, on Thursday the 5th day of Aug. 1784. And whereas, Gibbon Bourke and John Donnan, on behalf of John Shannon, master, and Samuel Nesbitt, mate, Malcom Taylor, Martin George, John Harper, Swiney Wilson and Alexander McKenzie, mariners, and Richard Hall, owner of the said brigantine Port Roseway, have filed a claim in the said court, praying a decree for their proportional shares of the net proceeds of the said goods: and whereas, Daniel McCormick, of the city of New-York, merchant, for and on behalf of Hyem Cohen, of the island of Jamaica, hath filed a claim in the said court, to the monies which have arisen from the sales of the said cotton wool, or part thereof, after the payment of salvage: and whereas William Cock, of the city of New-York, Esq. for and in behalf of Richard Hall, of Shelburne, in Nova-Scotia, as sole owner of the said brigantine Port Roseway, hath also filed a claim in the said court, praying an allowance for salvage out of the monies arising by the sale of the said goods, wares and merchandise. And whereas, it appears by the depositions of William McKenney and Malcom Taylor, two of the persons on board the brigantine Port Roseway, at the time the said goods and merchandise were so saved and taken on board; that the deserted vessel out of which the said goods were saved, were generally supposed by themselves and others then present, to have been a brigantine; and it further appears by the said depositions, and the deposition of Swiney Wilson, which depositions were severally taken in open court, that the said deserted vessel was a stout vessel (perhaps about three hundred tons burthen) had a woman's head, with guard-irons round it, that she had black sides, and yellow mouldings, that she had either three or four ports on each side abaft her chains, that she had a double deck as far as her main-mast, and had deck-beams but no planks on them before her main-mast as part of her lower deck, that she had quarter-barges, but no quarter-galleries, and was plain behind, and that her quarter-deck was raised about three feet above her main-deck: Therefore, pursuant to an order of the said court, public monition and notice is hereby given to all persons interested, or claiming to be interested, in the said goods, wares and merchandise, so saved, or any part thereof, to put in a claim in the said court for the same, within one year and a day, from the day of the date of this monition and notice. Dated the eighth day of October, in the twelfth year of the Independence of the state of New-York, and the year of our Lord, 1787. By order of the court of Admiralty, JONH GRAHAM, Marshal. 36-48

WHITE TEETH!
I. Greenwood,
SURGEON DENTIST,
No. 199, Water-Street, opposite the Coffee-house,
ENCOURAGED by the success of his practice, begs leave to acquaint the public, that he preserves the TEETH and GUMS, by removing an infectious tartar that corrupts them, and renders the natural purity of the breath offen- sive, this tartar acquires a solidity equal to stone, the corrosive particles destroy the enamel of the teeth, the body of it causes an inflammation in the gums, and by degrees will strip them from the roots of the teeth, and if not removed, force them out of their sockets.—He cures the scurvy in the gums, fastens the teeth, extracts, replaces, trans- plants, and regulates, cleans the teeth and makes them white, substitutes artificial teeth in so neat a manner as not to be perceived from the natural, without drawing the stumps, or causing the least pain; they help mastication, give a youthful air to the countenance, render pronunciation more agree- able and distinct; in a word, as there is nothing more beautiful, and of such real service as a good set of teeth, both natural and artificial are worthy the attention of every one.—His charges are low, to give every person an opportunity of being bene- fited by him.
Said GREENWOOD will with pleasure at- tend those ladies or gentlemen, who cannot conven- iently wait on him, upon their sending directions.
