THE RACES.—KHOREE is a NEW IMPOR-
TATION by the Messrs. NICOLL, through their Agent in
INDIA. It is a Cloth exceedingly well adapted, when formed into
a I'ALETOT, for the races, the sea-side, or any place of public
amusement during the approaching warm weather. It has the pecu-
liarity of resisting, or counteracting, in a most singular manner,
the intense heat of the sun's rays, and is so light (weighing bnt six
ounces) that it can be conveniently WORN OVER ANOTHER
COAT, which it thus effectually preserves from dust; and as it oc-
cupies, when folded, no more space than a pocket-handerchief, it
may be concealed in the same manner when not wanted. It, more-
over, conveys a most gentlemanly appearance, Is very durable, and
when soiled; becomes new again by the simple process of washing.
The price is most moderate, but the invention and application of this
article in the manufacture of Paletots or Overcoats is PATENTED
by 11. J. and D. NICOLL, 111, 116, 118, 120, REGENT-STREET,
and 22, COCNHILL, LONDON.
