T F. KING begs to ()tier to the Trade hi general,
J • a Composition; the resemblance of which to Gold not only
far excels that of any other substitute hitherto submitted to
public notice, but is also, in every esstmial quality (as fir as re-
lates to its use in manufacture) equivalent to Gold itstlf. In
richness of colour and great weight, this Composition so strictly
resembles the Standard Gold, that bold-workers have m•t been
able to distinguish one trim the when The most important
property peculiar to ;his Composition, consists in the very singu-
lar circumstance of its not being at all subject to change its luire
any more than the Standard Gold. In ductility it is precisely
the same, and wilt at all times be found as pliable to work, whe-
ther flatted or In wire, as Gold itself in fine, the oily ditll.rence
between them whatever, is merely that arising from their intrinsic

The limits of a Circular will not admit of an enumeration
of the many articles to which this composition is suited, nor
is it perhaps necessary, since from the above detail of its proper-
ties, it is easy to ascertain what articles may be manufactured
with it. J. F. K. cannot therefore too highly recommend the
Ayrean Ore, after recetving most numerou, proofs from Manu-
facturers, as well as front his own laboured experiments, to con-
vince him of its excellence, whereby it may tend, in a Very
powerful degree, so supersede the use of Gold.
Gold-Workers, and others who require their work east, may,
by sending their patterns or moulds, have them complete in six
hours after They are brought for the purpose.
N. 8.-3. F. K deems it important'to the trade in general, to
acquaint them that the Composition advertised in the Public Pa-
pars, bearing the appellation of the Aureat: Ore, (of which he is
the sole Inventor and Proprietor), cannot be purchased genuine
at any other Isom* in Lyndon but at his 117:1nufactory in Bridge-
water-square:-therefore auy other Composition cilered to the
trade, through any medium whatever, designated by the same
title, is spinosa and deceptive : every Flask of his manufacture
