The BEDFORD and Ssranac Crown Window Glass
distinguished from ordinary Glass by Inc ancoi-
mon eyelsness 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 DOT being polish
ed after being blown retains the enamel brllliancy,
and hardness, and is subject to the objection
often applied TO Plate Glass, OF being easily defaced
and permanently bedimmed by dust; being made of
extra thickness, will, without injury withstand vo-
lent winds, hail storms, jars Of cannon, &c. Its use,
10 the end, will prove more economical independent
of its adding much to the beautiful appearance of
buildings.

States. 1t has been used in great number OF
steamboats, and railroad cars and given entire salts
