The Redford and Ssranac Crown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncom-
mon evenness and beauty OF surface, the superior
transparency and lightnees 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 brIliIancy,
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 vIo-
lent Winds halt storms, jars Of cannon &c. lis use,
in the end, will prove more economical, independent

aud stores IN various parts Of the city also, IN tie

tol at Raleigh, North Carolina, and in many both
public and private edfces throughout the United
States. 1t has been used in great number of
steamboats, and railroad cars and given entire salts

prove that this Glass stands preeminent and that it
dcservedy merits the appreciation of builders and
