BEGS TO CAUTION THE PUBLIC.

DROMOLI and HAUSBURG beg leave to direct the
attention of their Friends to their SPLENDID AND EX-
TENSIVE STOCK OF JEWELLERY, constantly replenished
with the most elegant Novelties from the first Manufacturers
in London, and the production of THEIR OWN MANUFAC-
TORY, ON THE PREMISES, and forming an unrivalled Collec-
tion of Ornaments, to the selection of which their exertions
are unremittingly devoted.
The kind patronage conferred upon them since they com-
menced the manufacture of WATCHES has been an induce-
ment to still greater efforts, and they have succeeded, both
in price and quality, in distancing all competitors, behig
enabled to offer advantages hitherto unprecedented._
The increased demand for the ELECTRO-PLATE af-
fording proof of the high estimation in which it is held, P.
and H. solicit the favour of an examination of their Stock,
being convinced that the superiority of the manufacture will
at once be evident.
The most prompt attention paid to the execution of orders,
and Estimates furnished for RE-PLATING ARTICLES WHICH
HAVE BEEN PLATED UPON THE FORMER SYSTEM.
Liberal terms to Exporters and the Trade.

SMOKE PREVENTION.
CAUTION.

DIRCKS and CO., AGENTS for Mr. CHARLES WYE
WILLIAMS'S PATENT FURNACE, hereby inform the
Public, that they have no connexion with Mr. JOSEPII
WILLIAMS, of Liverpool, nor have they ever authorized
him to set up any of the said Furnaces.
They deem it here necessary to state the following facts :
Ist. That Mr. Joseph Williams has no patent for any fur-
nace or other invention.
2d. That the patent which he affects to carry into execution
was taken out by Mr. A. Kurtz, of Liverpool, on sth No-
vember, 1840, and of which he was advertised as the agent.
3d. That, under colour of such patent, Mr. J. Williams
has been adopting various plans for introducing air to fur-
naces, one of which, by means of hollow bars, proved unsuc-
cessful.
4th. That the modification of the plan which he is now
proposing to adopt, and as lithographed by him, is not only
wholly distinct from Mr Kurt's patent, but is a direct in-
fringement of that granted to Mr. C. W. Williams. D. and
Co., therefore, caution Engineers, Manufacturers, and others
against its use ; and they further suggest the propriety of
parties to whom Mr. Joseph Williams may apply, to call on
him to exhibit his pretended patent, or show his right to any
patent, before they sanction such infringement on that of
Mr. C. W. Williams as may, hereafter, render them liable to
damage.
Mr. Joseph 'Williams has advertised, " that the patentees
have forborne pressing their invention," &c. D. and Co.
therefore suggest, that he ought, after this notice, be required
to state who are these " patentees," and what is the " inven-
tion" to which he lays claim.
For the information of the public, D. and Co. observe
that the Patent of Mr. C. W. Williams consists in the intro-
duction of atmospheric air, in small or thin films, to the
heated intia.mmable gasses generated from coals in a furnace,
the object being to effect the immediate diffusion or mixture
of the air with such gasses, without producing that cooling
effect which takes place when• air is admitted by large or
wide orifices.
Mr. Joseph Williams affects to make a distinction between
the introduction of hot, instead of cold air, and for this pur-
pose he merely raises the pipe which conducts the air to the
level with the fire bars. This, however, is but a mere colour-
able pretence to cover the deception, the eff9ct being the same
in whatever situation such air-conducting pipe be placed.

TO ANDREW XURTZ, ESQ...
DEAR SIR,—As your name was mentioned in the advertise-
ment which appeared in the Liverpool papers, from Messrs.
Dircks patent by
and Co., respecting the infringem.ent
Mr. Joseph Williams, under colour of his being agent for
yours, I have to assure you, it never was intended to convey,
in the remotest manner, an idea that. you in any way en-
couraged or sanctioned Mr. J. Wilhams in the step he was
taking. Your assurance on that point, in your former commu-
nication to me, was quite sufficient, and your fecent disavowal
of those measures only confirms me in the propriety of sett-
ing the matter right before the public. I regret the necessity
for introducing your name in the advertisement of Messrs.
Dircks and Co., and take this public means of expressing
my obligation tor your so distinctly disclaiming and con-
demning the proceedings of Mr. Joseph Williams, of who.s
conduct in this matter you so strongly expressed your chs-
e
approbation.—l am, very truly, yours,. W. WILLIAMS.

Bench, in the first year of Queen Mary, was the
Judges who rode to Westminster-hall on a horse,
that time they rode on mules. Thorns, in his Book
ofiftohfrresttlbli;ofifC:rtgoeh'ues'rt, gives a description of the manner in which Wol-
sey rode to Westminster-hall, on his mule, " trapped all in
crimson velvet, with a saddle of the same, and gilt stirrups."
The costumes of the Judges in ancient times having been very
various, for certainty and uniformity in them there was a
solemn decree and rule, made by all the Judges of the Courts
at Westminster, bearing date the 4th June, 1635. It was
subscribed by all the Judges of those Courts, appointing what
robes they should thenceforth use, and at what times. As a
further item of antiquated legal gossip, it may be mentioned
that, in the olden times, even the length of a lawyer's beard
was regulated by statute.. In a Parliament of the Inner Tem-
ple (that is, a meeting of the Benchers of that Inn,) held Gth
May, Ist and 2nd Philip and Mary, there was a decree made
that no fellows of that house should wear his beard above
three week's growth, upon pain of twenty shillings forfeiture.
Like all other species of liberty, the liberty of the bar is
greater in the present day than in those "good old times."
