NEErAL FAN-SASRES, Of various
h descriptions, will be raade by the
subsc ,.ber, at his saoN, lower epd OF Duke
street. The want Of Metal Fan-Sash
Mandatory ia alexandria, has hitherto
been severely felt by builders and 9th
ers, who have been compelled to make
use of wood, which is neither elegant nor
durable. The various forms into which
the metal can be shaped have given it a
decided superiority, and the difference in
the price is very tt fling. The subscriber
has been a. considerable expence in pro-
curing the necessary preparations, and
relies on public enterprise for success in
the undertaking.
Gentlemen in the COUNTRY, BY sending
the dimensions of their sa;hes, can have
them made al the same Price as il in town.
