ANTI DRY-ROT COMPANY-.
KIAN'S PATEN 1'
FOR THE PRESERVATION OF ALL TIMBERS, CANVASS, CORDAGE,
&C. FROM DRY-ROT AND DECAY.
Comitated by Act of Panlicinent.
mil E Directors of the above Cowpony beg to call the atten-
-1 lion of the Nobility, Gentry, and the Public at large to
one of the most important discoveries ever made, via., that of
preserving, at a moderate expense, all Timber, Canea,s, Coid-
age, &c. tram the destructive ravages of Dry Rot, Mildew, and
Decay.
As this process, disciaveredby Mr. KVA N, has now stood the
test of eight years' trial and prom; without a single instance of
failure ever occurriug, (as cam be proved by documents a d the
indisputable testimonials of men of the first talent expert-
euce,) the Directors refrain from expatiating fort er as to the
perlect reliance that may be placed on it, but: refer to the evi-
dence of Professor Fatuity, Sir Robert Sitifke, &t'. The pur-
poses fur which the Company has been Wined, and fur which
an Act of Parliament has been obtained, are for the establish-
ment of Public Tanks in large 'loons for the preparation of
Timber, &c.;. and, in order to diffuse inure widely the benefits
of this invaluable discovety, to grant Li .enses fur the use of the
Patent Process to Timber Merchants, Ship Builders, &c., for
the purposes of Trade, and to the Nobility and Gentry, for
their private Estates. The advantages arising from Mr.
liyan's process are obvious. By its adoption all Wood is pre-
served from the destructive ravages of Dry Rot, and the 'lim-
ber of an inferior description, such as Beech, Larch, Poplar,
Scotch Fir, &c., is rendered available f r all, domestic and
agricultural 'imposes. It has, moreover, the property of sea-
soning Timber at once, so that a 'Free may be felled with the
leaf growing, and, after immersion iu the solution, may he im-
mediately applied to those uses for which long seasoned Timber
is now conceived to be requisite, without ever being liable, as
every species of unprepared Wood is, to Dry-rat and Decay.

bility and greater economy.

r-rtH E object of this Company is to establish a Steam Corn-
J. municioion between the Ports of L. .erpool and New Yo-k.
Its projectors have long entertained he must sanguine opi-
nions as to the success likely to atte such an enterprise, when
liberally backed by public patrunae ; and Otis, the present pro-
spectus, it is confiueritly hoped, wit be the means of inducaq.,„
for it Is a truism, that withuut rte fostering aid ail such associa-
tions must signally. fail in the attainment of their object.

Twenty years ago the idea ails derided of successfully effect-
ing an intercourse by Steam between this country and Ireland.
Nevertheless, we are now in a position of exposing the fallacy.
of so contracted a view, as science, aided by wealth, perse-
verance, and enterprise have prevailed, and the existing esta-
blishments ore iu the most prosperous condition.
The assertion, then, may fairly be hazarded, that Steam Na-
vigation, in the really efficient form it has assumed in the pre-
sent day, is callable in an eminent degree of developing the
vast resources of those fertile, densely rol:Qlated, and commer-
cially important distric's of North America, (to which the ope-
rations of this Company will be directed,) by affording that su-
perior facility of intercourse between Lein and Great Britain,
fur which Steam is other parts of the woilo has necoure so justly
celebrated, and whir h, alike to the Meichant and the Emigrant,
most be a matter of the most paramount interest.
The projectors are justifiable in stating, (inasmuch as it is
the expressed opinion of scientific and experienced men,) that,
with suitably constructed and powerful vessels, the run out to
New York may, in ordinary weather, be accomplished in about
Sixteen days. Su quick a run by other means, it is believed,
would be without a parallel.
An ample supply of Fuel may be always calculated upon, as
the great improvement lately introduced in the engineer and
boiler department (the invention of the scientific Mr. Hall) has
caused a most extraordinary: ecrearu in the consumption of that
very important article
In order to disseminate as widely as possible the advantages
likely to accrue from such ae association as this, well, respect-
ably, and spiritedly conducted,—a prominent Feature in its for-
mation has been, that of dividing the shales tutu tile noaleiate
amount of Twenty Pounds each; thus, nut precluding the
trackman or small capitalist frow investing in an estal,lisli-
client which cannot but augment the commercial importance of
this enterprising ct multi tidy.
The Company will be considered as constituted, as soon as
bona tide applications to the extent of LOW shares shall have
been made.

Directors, to be chosen by the Proprietms. Three of the Di-
rectors to ietiie annuallt, but to be e.igible for re-election. ) The holding of Fifth Shares to consuitite the eligibility of „,
