MR. WALTER. PATON's PUBLIC EVEN-
ING CLASS for WRITING, &c., 2, Devonshire .street,
Portland-place.—ln consequence of numerous applications for IN-
STRUCTION in WRITING by persons whose immediate liveli-
hood or future advancement depends on their proficiency in that
art, and who find private lessons expensive, Mr. W. PATON has
formed a CLASS at his own house, (on an economical, ini,erest-
ing, and highly advantageous plan), where the various hands will
be taught suitable to the rem of business or the finished penman.
Mr. Paton feels anxious that this class may be viewed as a com-
plete nursery for penmanship on undisputed principles, and as a
barrier against the vague and improper encroachments of depraved
taste and assumed talent so frequently pressed upon the notice of
the public, whose attention being necessarily directed to other ob-
jects, have not always time to investigate the merits of every pro-
posed system. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, from 6toB in
the evening. Terms may be known by applying to Mr. Paton.
Paton's copy lines sold at 27, Paternoster-row.
Mr. PATON has published the following PRINTS, to which
he respectfully begs to call the attention of the Public :
The Late DUKE of YORK.—The most interesting and
powerful Likeness of the late Duke of York will he found in His
Royal Highness's memorable Speech on the Catholic Claims,
ornamentally Written and Engraved on a Plate 11,1,- by 16
inches, by Mr. WALTER PATON, which may be hail of the
Printsellers generally, and of Mr. Paton. Price 7s. 6d. India,
and ss. plain : the Portrait, without the Writing, 3s.
From the Literary Gazette, Sept. 23, 1826 :—" Mr. Paton
could not have devised surer means of attracting attention to his
great abilities as a penman than by adorning this specimen of
them with so admirable a likeness of the Commander-in-Chief.
It is from Jackson's fine portrait, a most powerful and striking
resemblance, and beautifully engraved by Thomson, in an oval
about the size of half a crown piece. At this moment, when His
Royal Highness's health causes so much anxiety, it is peculiarly
interesting. The example of writing does great credit to Mr.
Paton 's genius as a master in that profession."
• The Late PRINCESS CHARLOTTE.—Paton's grand dis-
play of Ornamental Penmanship, in Memory of her Royal High-
ness the Princess Charlotte, containing an extremely fine Minia-
ture Portrait in the centre, and dedicated by permission to the
NKing. Size of the plate 18 by 21i- inches. Price one guinea
lia, and 15s. plain.
From the "Imperial Magazine, Nov. 1825 :—" The difficulties
attending the contrivance and execution of fine ornamental pen-
Manship are well known to its professors, and commonly lead the
performer into sameness of composition and poverty of execution,
but in Mr. Piston's specimen there is no repetition : the hands are
80 admirably chosen and arranged, the flourishes so varied and
natural, and the whole performance so exquisitely fine, that it may
unquestionably be considered the most magnificent production in
the art of ornamental penmanship that has ever appeared in this
country," &C.
