PAINTING WITHOUT SMELL ; a fact sc.
compll-hed by the use of the newly discovered SWEET OIL
of TURPENTINE, instead of the deadly abomination called oil or
spirits of turpentine. Paint mixed with it is free from smell, is im-
proved in brilliancy of colour, and the baneful properties of the lead
being neutralized, does not emit those noxious exhalations which
have hitherto been so universally avociated with painting. By this
really 'minable discovery house painting is now converted into a sa-
nitary operation, that okay be effected at any season of the year,
being productive of health and comfort, without causing the slightest
derangement to the domestic economy.
Sold by the gallon, cwt., er ton, by every respectable oilman in the
kingdom, and at the depot, 1, Beam's-buildings, Chancery-lane,
where may be seen, and copies had of, the originial certificate of Dr.
Serny, a senior member of the College of Chemistry. Sold also in
sample battles, 2s. each, bottles included.

"Mr. Fongere, of 6, Conduit-street, Tailor to his Royal Highness
Prince Albert, and the successful patentee of the celebrated WELLING-
TeN Svavout(now warn by almost every nobleman and gentleman In
the kingdom, and suitable for every season of the year), has again
provided for the comfort of the public, having just introduced ano-
ther new coat for winter, called `the ROYAL SIBERIAN OYERCOIT,'
Which although perfectly porous, will resist twenty-four hours' in-
cessant rain, and while as light as a cork, is warm, pliant, and com-
fortable as fur. Although richly trimmed, so as to be suitable to
trst-class wearers, the price is only Fifty Shillings. We heartily wish
Mr. Fougere the success which his ingenuity and enterprise merit."

A. CHRISTMAS SKETC

I love ti notice, at a time like this,
The bustle of the great metropolis
A thousand indications meet the eye,
As glad December's holiday draws nigh.
A pleasing animation we may trace
In every part of every market-place.
Nor can we find a spot but what is rife
With animal and vegetable life.
In every branch of business we discern
A token of the holiday's return:
In poulterers' shops the birds of various feather
In goodly groups are hung and packed together ;
While butchers with their tempting fat supply
Give double boldness to their " What d'ye buy ?"
Grocers in "greens," and those in " green and black,"
Amid this stir are never found to lack.
The stationers, an Christmas-time draws nigh,
New books display, attra live to the eye;
And every railway station is a scene,
Which proves that Christmas soon will intervene.
" What next," cry Messrs. MOSES, " will you thus
Conclude your sketch, without a word for US."
Nay, Messrs. MOSES, don't imagine that 1
'Tis you alone that I've been aiming at.
At such a time as this, I can't do less,
Than eulogise your matchless
C HRIST MA S DRESS.
MOSES and SON. believe me, when I say,
I highly value your superb display.
You seem determined, with your rare attire,
To pay due honour to the " good old sire."
Such Trousers, Coats, and Vests, I never saw 1
I cease to wonder at the crowds you draw.
Yours is the Warehouse, I am sure of that,
At which to buy a splendid
CHRISTMAS MAT.
MOSES and SON, I must confess I wonder,
Such Hats are sold at prices so much under.
You seem resolved that we shall never lose
In Christmas Hats, or
CHRISTMAS BOOTS AND SHOES.
My last new Wellingtons I bought of you,
And better Soots I never wish to view
Stylish, and firm in make, and soft to touch,
I must confess that I admire them much;
Nor do I, MOSES, feel the least demur,
In complimenting thus your
PHRISTMAS FUR.
Well may the ladies to your Warehouse flock,
And make selections from your varied stock;
And well may judging buyers daily see
The value of your
CHRISTMAS HOSIERY.
I trust that Christmas, Eighteen Forty eight
Will make the number of your patrons great ;
For in the quality of your display,
And in your moderate price, you seem to say—
" All may be well prepared for Christmas Day."
MOSES and SON beg to call the attention of Emigrants to
;sieir low lists of outfits, commencing (including every necessary) at
