A MEXICAN GROWN WINDOW GLASS ma-

"A nufactured in the village of Rediord, 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 received
a gold medal, in commentator of its superior merits
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
Of standing every change of climate, nor viii IT lose
its mstre by age
The BEDFORD and Saranac Crown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncom-
mon evenness and beauty of surface, the superior
transparency and lghness 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, brillancy
and hardness and is not subject to the objection so
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. Its use,
in the end, will prove more economical, independent
of its adding much to the beautiful appearance of
buildings
Specimens of this deseryedy popular Glass may
be in the New York Exchange and Custom
House Towards Hotel, Bronson's Buildings, Broad
way, Centre Market and great many private resi-
dcnces and stores in various parts of the city also in
the Exchange and Custom House, Boston Girard
College, PHILADELPHIA Exchange Hotel, Baltimore (;
in the public buildings at Washington city the Capt.
tol at Raleigh, North Carolina, and in many both
both public and private edihces throughout the Unit
ed States II has been used in great number of
steamboats, and rail roadcars, and given entire salts
faction. 1t is believed that the above will suffice to
prove that this Glass stands pre-emment and that it
deservedly merits the appreciation ofbuders and con-
sumers of Glass
The Saranac Crown Glass is most used in stores
and buildings of the second order green houses &c.
where strength and clearness are particularly desir-
ed and will range about 33 d per cent. cheaper than
Redford. The double thickness is always used for
lighthouses and is taken by the true economist for
sky lights, steamboats, ships cabin windows, sc.
Ground Glass for sky lights, churches, and artists
windows, furnished to any pattern or size. The Glass
carefully packed in stout boxes, nailed and secured
to be transported with safety to any part Of the
United States.
For the more complete satisfaction of persons at
a distance, who may not have opportunity to eXa-
mine this beautiful article, the following testimonials
respectfully offered for consideration.
Extract from the report of the committee of the
American Institute, October, 1887:
- For richness of mstre and brancy of surface,
well as thickness and strength, the Redford Glass
is the most beautiful article of the kind that has
fallen under notice, either Of domestic or foreign
production; and it affords proud specimen OF the
skill and enterprise of American manufactures"
