QIINER SUPERSEDED, and those corrosive
►.7 and injurious Metals, called Nickel and German Silver, sup-
planted by the introduation of a new and perfectly matchless
ALBATA PLATE.

C. WATSON, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton rolvate, aided by
a person of Science in the amalgamation of Metals, has succeeded in
bringing to Public Notice the most beautiful Article ever yet offered;
possessing all the richness of Silver in appearance, with all its dura-
bility and hardness—with its perfect sweetness in use, undergoing, as
it does, a Chemical Process, by which, all that is nauseous in mixed
Metals is entirely extracted—resisting all Acids—may be cleaned as
silver, and is manufactured into every Article for the Table and
Sideboard:

Fiddle. Threaded. King's.
Table Spoons and Forks, 16e. 6d. doz. 30s. 355.
Desert Ditto • .• • • 12s. 6d. 255. 28s.
Tea Spoons •.•• . • .... ss. 6d. —12 s. 6d. 13s. 6d.
Sugar Tongs ..........Is. 3d. 35.. 3s. 6d.
C. WATSON begs the Public will understand that this Metal is
peculiarly his own, and that Silver is not more different from Gold
than Isis metal is from all others—on its intrinsic merit alone he
wishes it to be tested, and from the daily increasing enlogiums he re-
ceives, he is convineed that nothing can prevent its becoming an
article of universal wear.

C. Watson's handsomely Illustrated Catalogue and Price Currant
is just published, and Families who regard economy and elegance
should possess themselves of this useful Book, which may be had
Gratis, and Post Free, from the above Address.
PATENT PARAGON CAMPHINE LAMPS.

The perfection of these Lamps over the Vesta has been
happily attained by the invention of two parallel flat rings—a larger
tnd a smaller farming a cone round the margin of the wick, which
cause a rapid reverberation of air against the flame—thus condensing
every particle of volatilized vapour, it is free from smoke or smell,
having perfect combustion, and in full action, emits a light equal to
16 wax candles.
C. Watson's Warehouses, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton
Polgate, will contain, throughout the season, all the most elegant
recherche and new patterns, comprising Or-mold, China, Glass, and
Opal.
Old Oil Lamps fitted with the Paragon Head for 21s. And the
Paragon Apparatus applied to the Vesta for 6s. The Spirit analysed
and recommended by Dr. Ure, is delivered in screw cans by C.
Watson's carts, at 4s. per gallon.
