ANDREW SMITH'S PATENT WIRE ROPE,
FOR STANDING RIGGING, MINES, RAILWAYS

BRIDGES, &c. &c.
EVERY day's experience proves the vast advantage this
Rope has over all others for the above purposes, from its
strength, durability, lightness, and great economy, the first
cost being about 25 per cent. cheaper than Hempen Rope.
Among the many practical and influential Gentlemen who
have certified its superiority and recommended its adoption
may be mentioned the names of
Lieut. W. LORD, R.N.,
Lieut. 8.. J. FAYRER, R.N.
JAMES C. SHAW, Esq.,
Joni.: GRANTHAM, Esq., C.E.,
The Testimonial of Mr. Shaw may be quoted
" City of Dublin Steam-packet Company,
Office, 24, Water-street, Liverpool, April 21, 1841.
" GENTLEMEN,—In reply to your letter of this morning,
I beg to state, as a proof of my opinion of the Wire Rope
for Standing Rigging, that I have recently put it on board
of this Company's new Steamer the Erin-go-Bragh, and
which I would not have done if I bad the slightest doubt of
its superiority over Hemp Cordage. The Standing Rigging
of the Prince, Princess, Queen Victoria, Oriental, and
Great Liverpool, is in the same good condition as when
first put on board those Steamers ; and, as regards the two
first-named Vessels, it has not been necessary to set the
Shrouds up since they were hauled taut two years since. I
find the Wire Rope answers admirably for Ridge Ropes for
awnings, as it becomes like a bar of iron when well set up,
and does not give to the lashings.
" I am, Gentlemen, your obedient servant,
JAMES C. SHAW.
" Messrs. Robertson and Co., Liverpool."
Specimens of the Wire Rope.may be seen, and every in-
formation afforded, on application to ANDREW SMITH
and Co., White Lion-court, Cornhill, London ; or to
