subscriber, at his shop, lower end OF Duke

Mandatory 10 Alexandria, has hitherto
heen severely felt by builders and 9th.
ers, who have been compelled to make
use of wood, which, is neither elegant nor
durable. The variOas forms into which
the metal can be shaped have given it
decided superiority, and the difference in
the price is very triarig. The Subscriber
has been IL considerab expence, in pro-
curing the necessary preparations, and
