NIXEY (late Manager of Mr. THOMAS ROBERTS'S
V Y • Woollen Shop, 24, Old Haymarket) begs most re-
spectfully to inform his Friends and the Public generally,
teat he has entered into Partnership with W. DENVER,
under the Firm of DENVER and NIXEY, and that they
have taken the above Premises, which they THIS DAS
have OPENED with an entirely new and extensive STOCK
of WOOLLEN GOODS, comprising every description of
Articles connected with the Woollen Drapery Business.
D. and N., in soliciting the support of their Friends and
the Public, feel convinced, from their long experience and
knowledge of the Trade, they are justified in asserting, that
the STOCK, which they have personally selected from the
different Markets, has been purchased on such terms as will
enable them to 9ffer it as Cheap as it is possible for any Douse
in the Trade. •
D. and N., without.
adopting the too common practice of
Puffing, which is often resorted to in order to delude perions
who are inexperienced and to pass off inferior Goods, respect-
fully solicit an inspection of their Stock, which, they doubt
not, will be found, on comparison, inferior to none in the
Trade.
D. and N. would call particular attention to their Stock of
PILOT CLOTHS, BEAVERS, &c., suitable for the ap-
proachinn. Season, in the selection of which they have been
most careful' to have such Goods only as they can, with con-
fidence, recommend for durability and cheapness, and they
trust, that, by unremitting attention to business, buying their
Goods at the best Markets, and selling them at the smallest
possible profit, they shall receive a share of the public pa-
tronage, which it will ever be their anxious study to merit.

THE LARGEST MUSICAL BOX EVER IMPORTED

fully begs leave to acquaint his Friends and the Public, that
he Makes and Repairs all sorts of Fancy Clocks ; Lever, Ho-
rizontal, Duplex, and other Watches; French and English
Repeaters, &c. ; likewise Musical Boxes, Birds, Seals, &c. ;

PALMER and CO.'S PATENT LENS CANDLE-
CANDLEE LAMP,
QUAL for REtNo DER
of MANY,ING the Lis an invention forIGHT of ONE
that
increasing the quantity of light in any required direction by
means of Lenses, and without any additional cost of candle.
Without the Lens it forms a handsome Table-Lamp, having
a dome shade and a contrivance for receiving one, two, or
more Lenses, that may be applied round the flame as wanted,
so that as many as eight persons can sit round one Lamp, and
each have a strong light cast on their work or books. For
reading by the fireside, or when lying in bed, it possesses an
advantage never before offered ; in the latter case particu-
larly, for, as the lamp need not be removed from the table,
no danger from fire can arise.
The PATENT MAGNUM CANDLE-LAMP, with
Candles of Three and Four Wicks, and giving as much light
as a large Argand Lamp, continue to be much approved by
purchasers. 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
