COPYRIGHT DESIGNS BILL.-
It is pleasing to observe that the foundation of a School
of Design, together with the enaetmer.t protecting patterns,
for a short period, if registered, has done much for the advance-
ment of a more refined taste. To an extension of such protec-
tion our first-rate manufacturers are looking with the deepest
interest, and which extension the present Legislature will
doubtless afford them. It may be observed that the Manufac-
tut ers are not alone interested in this important measure, a
very large and highly-gifted body of artists, are sensibly alive
to the importance of the question. Let the extension sought
be granted, and the Manufacturer will be enabled to pay men
of talent to make their designs, who are equally conversant
with natural history as with the effects of colour and the proper
adjustment of light and shade. Then the rising generation
will be no longer offended with the pourtrayal of birds and in-
sects which never had being, or herbs and flowers which never
grew. These remarks arc principally suggested by a private
view of the NEW PATTERNS for the most costly carpets
and furniture-hangings of Messrs. JACKSON and GRA-
HAM, of OXFORD-STREET, by whom artists of the first
talents aro liberally engaged, and the result is in the highest
degree creditable to the genius and manufacturers of England.
But it may be repeated, some additional security ought to bo
provided for these and like costly wares, which so soon as made
are exposed to the most flagrant piracy.

THE CALAMITOUS EFFECTS OF
FIRE, from accidents, carelessness, or incendiarism, is
enough to arouse the attention of every thinking mind. The
recent dreadful sacrifice of human life at sea, by fire, when sur-
rounded by water, is truly astonishing. J. READ begs leave
to inform the Heads of the Naval Department, particularly
those employed in steam navigation, that he has made such
IMPROVEMENTS in his HYDRAULIC MACHINE, by
which an engine o sufficient power to protect the largest
steam vessels or ships of the British Navy, may be carried on
the deck of a Gravesend Steamer, and contained in the compass
of a truck, and moved with ease to any part of the deck. These
Engines may be workcd by ropes, or levers, and with half the
usual labour. The above are also well adapted for villages,
mansions, factories, &e. Ste. From their portability they will
Pass through a passage or doorway three feet wide.
Also GARDEN ENGINES and MACHINES of every
description, may be seen and proved at the Patentee's, 35,
Regent-circus, Piccadilly.
