IMPOSTURE UNMASKED.

THE Progress of Merit, altLough 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 ::wt of experience is the guarantee of favour,
and has established WARREN'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 at-
tide, to the great disappointment of the unguarded purchaser, and
manifest injury of Warren, whom character and interest, by this
iniquitous system, are equally subject to detriment. It because.,
therefore, an indispensable duty, to caution the public against the
manceuvres of unprincipled venders, who having no character to
lose, and stimulated by avarice in their nefarious pursuits, aim to
the acquisition of money through any medium but that of honour.
The original and matchless Blacking bears on each bottle s abort
direction, with the signature " ROBERT WARREN;' all
others are counterfeits; and in many instances the imposition labels
arc artfully interlined with a different address, in very small cha-
racters, het wren the more conspicuous ones of " No. 30," and
" STRAND." It is earnestly recommended to shopkeepers and
others, nre deceived by base fabrications of Warren's Black-
ing, to return the detected trash to the source from whence it note
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 corolla.; is an article equally
of indispensable fashion and utility.

A NEW DICTIONARY, ITALIAN and EN4;-

By Mr. S. K. PETR()NJ and Mr. J. DAVENPORT.
Is just published. The First Volume alone contains upwards
13.000 `fords more than the correspondingart ot Daretti's D.. -
tionary, which,although professedly compiled from that of the Pei
()ruses, does no: contain all the words found even in that Voca
bulary. This imperfection was rendered still more %trim's, by the
subsequent appearance of the copious Dictionary of Alberti. wire •
included several thousand words more than any other lezicogmi•lii.
cal work of the Italian language. The meagreness and poverty o:
Baretti's compilation thus became so apparert, that oethitig but
want of a superior work of the kind multi hare ensured it so large
share of public patronage. In the Dktionary now published Iw
Mr. Petronj will be found, not only all the words contair.eil iu tit,
D:lla Crusza, and Alberti, with their equivalents in French arc!
English, but also many new ones of recent introduction Into the
lenge& r,r, together with the philological remarks of Monti, ore
the most celebrated Italiin critics. NT. P. also. for the first time,
has marked the enact pronunciation of every Italian word, the irre-
gularities of verbs, the doubtful pineal" of nouns, Re. Re. Mr.
Davenport has rendered the second volume, which also contairs
many thousand words more than are to be found in Raretti, parti-
cularly useful to foreigners, by marking the accentuation of every
English word, and by the addition of a Synopsis of English (ham-
mar, founded upon the principles of the best modern grammariaut
