A MEXICAN CROWN WINDOW GLASS ma
nufactured IN the village of BEDFORD, county oil
Clinton, and State of New York.

hrs Premium of the American Institute in the city OF
New York for five successive years, and has received

This Glass Is made from white flint sand, obtained
IN the vicinity of the works, and is the only Crown
Glass made from that species Of sand. II is capable
oil standing every change of climate nor will lose
It's ustre by age.
The Redtord and Saranac Crown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncon-
mon evenness and beauty of surface, the superior
transparency and lghtness of color, the great thick
ness, and the general excellence of the materials
which compose them. The surface not being polish
ed after being blown retains the enamel, briliancy,
and hardness, and is not subject to the objection so
often applied TO Plate Glass, of being easily deaced
and permanently bedimmed by DUST being made OF
extra thickness, will without injury, withstand yo-
lent winds, hail storms jars of cannon, sc. It's use,
in the end will prove more economical, independent
of its adding much TO the beautiful appearance OF
buildings.
Specimens of this deservedly popular Glass nay
be seen in the New York Exchange and Custom
House, Towards Hotel, Bronsons Buildings, Broad
way, Centre Market, and great many private resi-.
dcnces and stores In various parts of the city also, IN

College, Philadelphia; Exchange Hotel, Baltimore

both public and private edifces throughout the Unit
ed States. II has been used in a great number of
steamboats, and rail road-cars and given entire salts
faction IL IS believed that the above will suffice to
prove that this Glass stands preeminent, and that it
deservedy merits the appreciation ofbulders and CON
sumers of Glass.
The Saranac Crown Glass is most used in stores
and buildings of the second order, green houses, sc.
where strength and clearness particularly desr-
ed, and will range about 33 per cent cheaper than
