TO PARTIES REQUIRING TO SELL OR PUR-

CHASE STEAM-VESSELS OR MACHINERY.
SINCE commencing my present Business, as CON-
SULTING MECHANICAL ENGINEER and
AGENT for the SALE of STEAM-VESSELS and
MACHINERY, I have had numerous applications for
the Sale and Purchase of various things connected with
my profession, which it is quite impossible to make suf-
ficiently known without Newspaper Advertisements.
I have, therefore, determined to adopt a more organized
ystem, by keeping a Registry, and inserting, periodically,
Advertisements in local and London Papers, containing
notices of whatever is entrusted to my Agency, and to
which I pledge myself satisfactory publicity shall be given
at a much more reasonable cost than can be otherwise
effected.

chaser, his constant exertions being devoted to the pro-
duction of new and elegant designs, and to the prompt
completion of all orders intrusted to him, he flatters him-

period been favoured.
