distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncom-
mon evenness and beauty of surface, the superior
Transparency and ghtness of color the great thick

which compose them. The surface not being polish

and hardness, and is not subject to the objection
often applied to Plate Glass Of being easily defaced
and permanently bedmmed by dust; being made Of
extra thickness, will, without injury withstand vio-
lent winds, hail storms, jars OF cannon &c. lis use,
