We again recommend to our friends TO avoid

regular sales being altogether retail, and il is
only when offered at a very low rate, that

whether north or south, including Montevideo,

AMERICAN PORCELAIN.

The Porcelain mandatory at Jersey City,
established about months since, is now going
on with fair prospect Of success. The mate
rails both for the body Of the article and for the
glazing are all found abundantly in the United
States, and are thought TO be Of quality at
least equal to the best French materials. Skill
full and experienced workmen have been in
duced to come over from France, and variety
of articles of porcelain have already been fin
ished at the establishment. A still greater
quantity Of porcelain vessels, many Of them ex-
ecu,ed with great ingenuity and perfection, az
ter the finest models Of the antique, are now
ready for the oven. We have seen several of
the articles manufactured there, which, in the
purity and delicacy Of their texture, are nothing
inferior to the finest French porcelain. We can.
not but hope that the enterprise OF the indiyi-
duals, who are attempting 10 introduce this
elegant manufacture among US, may be reward
ed; and we do not see that any thing is wanting
to insure success, but attention and perseyer'
ance SO far as the employments Of a people
may be presumed TO affect their morals, it is
manufactures should flourish among US which
require the exercise Of judgment, ingenuity and
taste, and thus create the necessity OF degree
Of intellectual training and activity, in prefer
ence to those which demand only bodily motion
and manual dexterity. The manufacture OF
porcelain requires in lis forms no small degree
Of the talent of the sculptor, and in its orna-
ments of the powers Of the painter. The UnI-
tedS States have this advantage over England in
the manufacture Of this article-thai the latter
is obliged TO import the materials from foreign
countries. " I. Even Posi-.
