A MEXICAN CROWN WINDOW GLASS
IA manufactured in the village Of Redfofd, county
of Clinton, and State of New York.
To the Redford Crown Glass has been awarded
the first Premium OF the American Institute in the
city of New York for five successive years, and has

or merits.
This Glass is made f,om white flint sand obtained
in the vicinity Of The works, and is the only Grown
Glass made from that species of sand 1t is capable
OF standing every change of climate, MOI will II lose
its luslre by age.
The Redforl and Ssranac Grown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass BY The uncon'-
mon evenness and beauty of surface, the superior
transparency and ghtness 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 briliiancy
and hardness and is subject the objection so
often applied to Plate Glass, OF being easily defaced
and permanently bedimmed by dust; being made of
extra thickness WILL without injury, Withstand vio-
lent winds, hail storms, jars of cannon sc. Its use,
IN the end, will prove more economical Independent
of It's adding much to the beautiful appearance of
buildings

Centre Market, and great many private residences
and stores in various parts of the city also, in tie

lege, Philadelphia; Exchange Hotel, Baltimore; in
the public buildings at w Washington city the Capt.
tol at Raleigh, North Carolina, and in many both
public and private edifices throughout the United
States. II has been used in great number OF
steamboats, and railroad cars, and given entire sa It's
oction. 1t is be eved that the above will suffice to
prove that this Glass stands preeminen and that it
dcservedly merits the appreciation of builders and
consumers of Glass
The Saranac Crown Glass is most used in stores
and buildings of the second order, green houses &c.
where strength and clearness partic uary desired
and will range about per cent cheaper than Red
fond. The double thickness is always used for light
houses, and is taken by the true economist for sky
lights steamboats,, ships cabin windows, &c.
