( MEXICAN CROWN WINDOW GLASS ma.

A MEXICAN CROWN WINDOW GLASS ma
IA nufactured in the village Of Bedford, county of
Clinton, and State of New York.
To the Redford Crown Glass has been awarded the
frstPremum of the American Institute in the city of
New York for five successive years and has received
gold medal, in communication 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. 1t is capable
of standing every change of climate, nor will it lose
its lustre by age.
The Rediord and Saranac Crown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncom-
mon eyenness and beauty of surface, the superior
transparency and lightness 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 brilllancy,
and hardness and is not subject to the objection so
often applied to Plate Glass of being easily deiaced
and permanently bedimmed by dust, being made OF
extra thickness, will without injury, withstand yo-
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 deservedly popular G lass may
be seen 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 edhces throughout the Unit
ed States. 1t has been used in a great number of
steamboats, and rail ears and given entire salts
faction 1t is believed that the above will suffice to
prove that this Glass stands preemncnt, and that il
deseryedy merits the appreciation olbuilders and
