THE Proprietor of this extensive concern offers to the
Public the great advantage of a large Stock on the
Premises to select from, and the Wholesale and Retail de-
partments are so arranged as to be kept quite apart from each
other. A great proportion of the Goods for Wholesale and
Export purposes are held in Bond, with the exact counter-
parts in the Warehouse, (duty paid,) so that parties may not
only see what they are buying, but can, if they choose, pay
the duty and take the Goods for home consumption.

pALMERand Co.'s PATENT LENS CANDLE-LAMP►
FOR RENDERING THE LIGHT OF ONE CANDLE EQDAL
TO THAT OF MANY, is an invention for increasing the quan-
tity of light in any required direction, by means or Lenses,
and without any additional cost of candle. ' ithout the
Lens it forms a handsome Table Lamp, havin. . dome shade,
and a contrivance for receiving one, two, • more Lenses,
that may be applied round the flame as • .nted, so that as
many as eight persons can sit round •j Lamp, and each
have a strong life cast on their work o •ooks. For reading
by the fireside, or when lying in bed, i possesses an advan-
tage never before offered ; in the latter case particularly, for,
as the lamp need not be removed from the table, no danger
from fire can arise.

The PATENT MAGNUM CANDLE-LAMP, with Can-
dles of Three and Four Wicks, and giving as much light as a
large Argand Lamp, continue to be much approved by pur-
chasers. Some late improvements enable the Patentees to
offer them with increased confidence ; also the TABLE-
LAMPS, the NIGHT-LAMPS, CHANDELIERS, &c.

For lighting churches, and other public buildings, either
the Magnum Candles, or those of a smaller size, will be found
greatly preferable to oil.
. .

The superiority of Candle-Lamps, for cleanliness, their not
requiring snuffing, trimming, or cottoning, is manifest ; and
considering the extraordinary consumption of oil in all lamps
made to burn cheap oil, and their liability to spill, they will
be found to be for most purposes probably cheaper than any
other portable light —Apply to
