PROVIDE AGAINST FROST.-DEFRIES'
DAY GAS-METER is never affected by Frost or Time, and
may be hired at a trifling expense of all Gas Companies who supply
meters to their customers. Nearly 30,000 have been sold, and the
first, judges of the day have pronounced them to be unequalled, while
the patronage of Government, the public, and of all the London, and
most of the provincial companies confirm the fact.—N. DEFRIES
begs to state, that in addition to the large meter he recently con-
structed for the Royal Italtan Opera-house, Covent-garden, upon the
order of the Chartered Gas Company, and which passes 6,000 feet of
gas per hoar, he has been honoured by that Company with the addi-
tional order for the meter for the New Howes of Parliament, which
is calculated to pass 10,000 feet of gas per heur, and to supply 2,003
lights, and has been universally pronounced to be the most superb
and effective measuring- machine ever constructed. It will remain
for public inspection for another week at Messrs. Glover's. 168,
Drury-lane.

Testimonials may be obtained at either Factory, 10, Hampstead-
road, or 67, St. Martin's-lane.

PAINTING WITHOUT SMELL.
The desideratum so long sought after.
Mix your paint with the newly discovered SWEET OIL of TUR-
PENTINE, certified by Dr.Semy, instead of the deadly abomination
cane(' oil or spirits of turpentine.
The following certificate must convince the most sceptical :
"This is to certify, that I have analysed and subjected to various
tests a Sweat Oil of Turpentine, which is wholly free from the smell
hitherto considered inseparable from the article. The process of
manufacture, which is entirely new, has been communicated to me
by the inventor in confidence, and I am satisfied that by this discovery
the d elete nous properties for which Oil of Turpentine has hitherto been
notorious are wholly obliterated, whilst its useful properties are pre-
served intact, and that the use of Common Oil of Turpentine, in all
branches of trade wherein this article is now used, biel oerre
