The BEDFORD and Saranac Crown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncom-
mon eyenness 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 brilliancy
and hardness and is not subject 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, sc. Its use,
IN the end, will prove more economical, independent
OF ITS adding so much to the beautiful appearance of
buildings

ed States. 1t has been used in great number of
steamboats, and rail roadcars and given entire salts

prove that this Glass stands pre-eminent and that it
deservedly merits the appreciation ofbuders and
