IMPOSTURE UNMASKED.

THE l'rogresa of Merit, although frequently assailed,
is not impeded by Envy and Detraction. The aggression
of ambuscade terminates in defeat; and conscious rectitude ulti-
mately triumphs in the attainment of the grand object--public
approbation. The test of experience is the guarantee of favour,
and has established IVA RREN'S BLACKING in general esti-
mation ; of which there exists not a stronger proof, than the tacit
acknowledgment of a host of servile imitators, who surreptitiously
obtrude on the unwary a spurious preparation as the genuine ar-
tide, to the great disappointment of the unguarded purchaser, and
manifest injury of Warren, whose character and interest, by this
iniquitous system, are equally subject to detriment. It becomes,
therefore, an indispensable duty, to caution the public against the
manteuvres of unprincipled venders, who having no character to
lose, and stimulated by avarice in their nefarious pursuits, aim at
the acquisition of money through any medium but that of honour.
The original and matchless Blacking bears on each bottle a short
direction, with the signature " ROBERT WARREN;" all
others are counterfeits; and in many instances the imposition labels
are artfully interlined with a different address. in very small cha-
racters, between the more conspicuous ones of " No. 30," and
" STRAND." It is earnestly recommended to shopkeepers and
others, who are deceived by base fabrications of Warren's Black-
ing, to return the detected trash to the source from whence it came
and expose the machinations of rascality to merited obloquy.
Warren's Blacking is surpassingly. brilliant; it excludes damp,
gives pliancy to the leather, retains its pristine virtue in all cli-
mates, and, combining elegance with comfort, is an article equally
of indispensable fashion and utility.
