rs Premium of the American Institute in the city OF

In the vicinity Of the works, and is the only Crown
Glass made from that species of sand 1t is capable

The Redford and Saranac Crown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uneon-
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 briliancy,
and hardness, and is not subject to 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 vi '
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

to at Raleigh, North Carolina, and in many both
both public and private edifces throughout the Unit
ed States. 1t has been used IN great number of
