BUTLER respectfully relies on the good discernment of
the Public, that they will see through the paltry devices and in.
situations opposed to him and countirfeitiog his articles. It is
well known that BUTLER has two Patents, one for Tables,
the other lot Bedsteads; the principle of the first is applicable
to almost all Kinds of Tables, and 14 allowed to be a great
improsement ; it renders them more convenient for 110111 es,
and much more portable. The principle of the other is mottle-
cable to mist kinds of Bedsteads, as Four Port, Tent, Sofa,
and Chair Bed., which latter are singolarly useful in Sickness,
and each, when aliut up, makes a bandname piece of furniture
