pA. rrN GN, &2 Devonshire-street,
Portland-place.—ln consequence of numero snapplications for IN-
iSTRUCTION in WRITING by persons whose immediate liveli-
riood or future advancement depends on their proficiency in that
'rt, and who find private lessons expensive, Mr. W. PATON has
'4aled a CLASS at his own house, (on an economical, interest-
and highly advantageous plan), where the various hands- will
taught suitable to the man of business or the finished penman.
lir- Paton feels anxious that this class may be viewed as a corn-
. Pl'te nursery for penmanship on undisputed principles, and as a
'sorrier against the vague and improper encroachments of depraved
4", te and assumed talent so frequently pressed upon the notice of
whose attention being necessarily directed to other ob-
J"S have not always time to investigate the merits of every pro-
' PQsed system. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, from 6toB in
the evening. Terms may be known by applying to Mr. Paton.
ston's copy lines sold at 27, Paternoster-row.
h Alr. PATON has published the following PRINTS, to which
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 be found in His
!loyal Highness's memorable Speech on the Catholic Claim*,
?'namentally Written and Engraved on a Plate 11i by 16
'Aetesi, by Mr. WALTER PATON, which may be hail of the
Printsellers generally, and of Mr. Paton. Price 7s. 6d. India,
lrid ss. •plain : the Portrait, without the Writing, 38.
Friuli the Literary Gazette, Sept. 23, 1826 :—" Mr. Paton
mull not have devised surer means of attracting attention to his
great abilities as a penman than by adorning this specimen of
ttliero with so admirable a likeness of the Commander-in-Chief.
from Jackson's fine porirait, a most powerful and striking
ab'orrabiar,,e, and beautifully engraved by Thomson, in an oval
R '4 the size of half a crown piece. At this moment, when His
• °Yal Highness's health causes so much anxiety, it is peculiarly
iteresting. The example of writing does great credit to Mr.
4°4 genius as a master in that profession."
The Late PRINCESS CHARLOTTE.—Paton's grand die-
PlaY of Ornamental Penmanship, in Memory of her Royal High-
the Princess Charlotte, containing an extremely fine Minis-
tllre Portrait in the centre, and dedicated by permission to the
ICi,g• Size of the plate 18 by 214 inches. Price one guinea
'4, and 15s. plain.
From the " Imperial Magazine, Nov. 1825 r The difficulties
4ttending the contrivance and execution of fine ornamental pen-
044sIlip are well known to its professors, and commonly lead the
?erformer into sameness of composition and poverty of execution,
4t in Mr. Paton's specimen there is no repetition : the hands. are
I") admirably chosen and arranged, the flourishes so varied and
4antral, and the whole performance so exquisitely flue, that it may
iinquestionably be considered the most magnificent production in
i the art of ornamental penmanship that has ever appeared in this
''outry," &c.
