TO THE NOBILITY, GENTRY, AND THE PUBLIC IN

GENERAL.

TURMEAU and SEWAIiD, Inventors of the
Patent LIVERPOOL LAMP, feel it a duty they owe the
Pare to state, that the very great demand tor their Lamps has
ineeeed a few needy Ind .. foals to attempt introducing to toe
Pult:ic a Lamp resembling the Patent Liverpool—only in its oul-
was : aj,p are. ce, but in principle the same as the Argand (than
which aone e..a be worse for burning common oil). The im-
- e umber .f Patent Liverpool Lamps now in use in the
h Ws• sof the oblity and Gentry, as well as in the shops of
rat. smen, are the um:: convincing proof of their eminent su
perimity over evoy Lamp hitherto invented; they produce as
much brill a. t pure light as any three other Lamps with the
UM of cnitanon oil only, without or smoke.
'Elie only Warehouses bolo: ging to the Proprietors are at No.
159., Drury-lane, ot,Tosite Long Acre; and No. 62, Church-
street, Liverpool; where the best wick oil and glasses may be
had for the above.
