W. have received at their hands for the past 2

We take this method of informing the pub

cd the right of the "Trovilc PATENT If the
proprietor, John Mclntre, ESQ, of St. Louis,
to be used by us exclusively within the city and
county of Dubuque.
The above patent.risht consists of new
and highly important improvement for the
mixing and preparing Of white lead, and all
other coIors. Applicant to every color; ,cithout
the use Of alcalies Of any description, whereby
,chiter, hnndsomer. and more durable paint Is
produced
The said improvement is now in successful
use in most of the large eastern and southern
cities, and the right has been purchased by the
u S. government for the use of the Navy De-
purtm emit, after having given it u most salts
factory and scrutnising trial.
All who arc acquainted with tho nature of
white lead and oil, know that they have 10 at
fnity for each othcr-that, mix tkem as tho
roughly as possible, they will separate on
standing a few hours, the lead sinking to the
bottom, the oil remaining, clear and pure, on
the top. If, then, anything can be added to
them, which, without ujuring the body OF the
paint, will cause the two to unite, without the
power Of afterwards separating, IT MUST RE
MADE MORE DURABLE; and such is the effect of
this wonderful improvement, unsurpassed in
Importance ny any discovery of this progress
i've age. All, therefore, DESTROYS of having
painting done in an elegant and durable man
