VIZ f., the ur dcrsgncd, rcturnour warmest
w thanks to our friends, and the public
generally, for the liberal share of patronage
We have received at their hands for the past 9
years, and hope. by strict attention and pune
tuality to business, TO merit q continuance Of
such patronage.
We take this method of informing the pub
lie, that we have, at great expense, purchas-
cd the right Of the "1'rovil,c Patent" &c the
proprietor, John McIntirc, 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 colors uppIcab bic to every color; ,cithoui
the use of alcalies Of eng description, whcrcbya
arhiter, hnndsomcr. 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 ky the
D. s. government for the use of the Navy Dc.
partment, ufter uving given it most salts
factory and scrutinising trial.
| All who are acquainted with the nature Of
white lead and oil, know that they have 10 f.
irity for cuch other-that, mix tLcm as tho
roughly az possible, they will separate on
standing few hours, the lead sink ing to the
bottom, the oil remaining, clear and pure, on
the top. If, then, anything can be added to
them, which. without Injurng tho body OF the
paint, will cause the two to unite, without the
power Of afterwards separating. IT MUST RI:
MADE MORE DURABLE; und such is the cife ct of
this wonderful improvements unsurpassed in
Importance ~ any discovery Of this progress.
i've age. ALI, therefore,, DESTROYS of having
painting done in an elegant and durable man.
