A MEXICAN CROWN WINDOW GLASS ma
nufactured in the village of Redford, county OF
Clinton, and State Of New York.
To the Redford Crown Glass has been awarded the
rst Premium of the American Institute in the city OF
New York for five successive years, and has received
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. Ii is capable
OF standing every change Of climate, nor will it lose
Its lustre by age.
The Redford and Saranac Crown Window Glass
are distinguished from ordinary Glass by the uncom-
mon evenness 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 brilliancy,
and hardness and is not subject to the objection
often applied To Plate Glass of being easily deaced
and permanently bedimmed by dust; being made Of
extra thickness, will, without injury, Withstand vio-
lent winds, hail storms, jars of cannon, SIC. Its use,
in the end, will prove more economical, independent
OF IFS adding 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 buildings at Washington city the Capt.
both public and private edfces throughout the Unit
ed States. 1t has been used in a great number of
steamboats, and rail roadcars and given entire salts
faction II is believed that the above will suffice
prove that this Glass stands preemnent, and that it
deservedly merits the appreciation ofbulders and con-
sumers of Glass.
The Saranac Crown Glass is most used in stores
and buildings OF the second ORDER green houses &c.

ed and will range about 33 i'd per cent cheaper than
