in the vicinity Of the works, and is the only Grown
Glass made from that species of sand. 1t is capabl,
OF standing every change Of climate, nor will il los,

| The BEDFORD and Saranac Crown Window Glas
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncom
mon evenness and beauty of surface, the superior
Transparency and ighness of color the great thick
| ness, and the general excellence of the material
| which compose them. The surface not being polish
ed after being blown, retains the enamel brilliancy
and hardness, and is not subject to the objection S,
often applied to Plate Glass, of being easily defacec
| and permanently bedmmed by dust; being made o
extra thickness, will, without injury withstand VIC
lent winds, hail storms, jars Of cannon &c. Its
IN the end, will prove more economical Independent
Of its adding much to the beautiful appearance o.
buildings.

be seen in the New York Exchange and Custom
House, Towards Hotel, Bronsons Buildings Broad

dcnces and stores in various parts of the city aso

tol at Raleigh, North Carolina, and in many botl
both public and private edifces throughout the Unit

faction. II believed that the above will suffice tc
prove that this Glass stands pre-eminent and that il
deservedly merits the appreciation ofbuders and
slimers of Glass.
The Saranac Crown Glass is most used in stores
and buildings of the second ORDER green houses, sc
where strength and clearness are particularly desir-
