A MEXICAN CROWN WINDOW GLASS ma

a MEXICAN CROWN WINDOW GLASS ma
| a nulactured in the village of Redford county OF
! Clinton, and State of New York.
To the Rediord 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 1t is capable
of standing every change of climate nor will il lose
| its lustre 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 lighness 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, briancy,
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 vo-
lent winds hail storms, jars of cannon, &c Its use,
| III the end, will prove more economical independent
of its adding SO much to the beautiful appearance OF
! buildings
Specimens of this deservedly popular Glass 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 budn, at Washington city the Capi-
tol at Raleigh, North Carolina, and in many both
both public and private edices throughout the Unit
| ed States. Ii has been used in great number OF
steamboats, and rail road-cars and given entire salts
faction 1t is believed that the above will suffice to
prove that this Glass stands preeminent and that il
deseryedly merits the appreciation ofbuders and
sumers of Glass.
The Saranac Crown Glass is most used in stores
and buildings of the second order, green houses, sc
where strength and cearness particularly desir-
ed, and will range about 33 ID 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
is carefully packed in stout boxes nailed and secured
to be transported with safety to any part of the
! United States.
