MITE LONDON GENERAL MOURNING
WAREHOUSE, established for the sale of every article
requisite for Court, Family, or Complimentary Mourning,
Nos. 247, and 249, Regent-street, near the Circus, Oxford-
street, W. C. JAY and CO., proprietors.—The managers of
the above establishment beg leave to call the attention of
ladies to its peculiar utility, and to the advantages presented
by their undertaking. It has ever been a source of inconve-
nience and regret, on occasions when mourning attire is re-
quired, that its purchasers have at such a time been com-
pelled to the harassing necessity of proceeding from shop to
shop in search of each distinct article of dress. This evil is
now most completely remedied at the London General Mourn-
ing Warehouse, where every description of mourning, milli.
nery, dresses, cloaks, mantles, shawls, &c., of the best qua-
lity, can be purchased at the most reasonable prices, and every
article necessary for a complete outfit of mourning, may be
procured at a moment's notice. The millinery rooms contain
an assortment of mourning bonnets, caps, and head-dresses,
with a well-selected variety of skirts for first and following
mourning. The dressmaking is superintended by an expe-
rienced artiste.
Country orders executed with the strictest punctuality.

IR WILLIAM I3IIRNETTS PATENT for
kJ the PRESERVATION OF TIMBER, CANVAS,
CORDAGE, COTTON, WOOLLEN, &c., from DRY ROT,
MILDEW, MOTH, and PREMATURE DECAY.
The Two Testimonials at foot, selected from an immense
number, will afford evidence of the efficacy of this Patent.
(COPY.)
SIR,—I have sent by the Admiralty Boat, a small case,
containing the piece of board which has been on the bottom of
the Rigger's Launch since March, 1837. It has been (with
very short intervals) in the water ever since that time. It
has never been scraped or cleaned; not any vegetable er other
substance appear to have adhered to it. I should consider this
very satisfactory as to your preparation tending to keep boats'
or vessels bottoms clean, without praying, in river water.
Should you desire this testimony in any other form, I shall be
most happy to give it.
I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant.
JOHN COW, Foreman of the Yard.
Sir Wm. Burnett, K. C. H.
N.B. This Plank may be seen at the Office, Castle-court.
Tullamore, King's County, Ireland, Jan. 17, 18.11
SIR,—In reply to your note, I beg to say that from my
experience of Sir William Burnett's Process of preparing Tim-
ber, it has succeeded perfectly, and has enabled me to effect a
eery considerable saving in my establishment, by substituting
domestic timber where, heretofore, I used the hest foreign.
I am, Sir, yours faithfully, THOMAS BERRY.
To the Secretary of Burnett's Patent.
It is cheap and simple in its application. Timber, Deals,
&c., Canvas, Sails, and Ropes will he prepared at the
Company's Station at Limehouse, at a small expen:e ; or the
preparation may be purchased for use, under license or other-
wise, at a rate that will give persons, who are disposed to enter
into it as a branch of trade, ample profits. Application to be
made to the Secretary, No. 4, Cast;e-court, Birchin-lane,
Cornhill. .
