We take this method Of informing the pub
lie, that we have, at great expense, purchas-
cd the right of the ''Trovilie PATENT If the
proprietor, John McIntire, Esq, st. Louis,
to be used by us Exclusively within the city and
county of Dubuque. 81 7-~
The above .patentright consists of new
and highly important improvement for the
mixing and pAsParing of white lead, and all
other colors, appica Bile to every color; ,oithout
the use Of azcalies of any description, whereby a
,ohiter, handsomer. 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-
partment, after having given it a most salts
factory and scrutinising trial.
All who are acquainted with the nature Of
white lead and oil, know that they have no af-
! fnity for each other-that, mix them as tho
roughly as possible, they will separate on
standing few hours, the lead sinking to the
bottom, the oil remaining, clear and pure, on
the top. IT, then, anything can be added to
them, which, without IN uring the body OF the
paint, will cause the two to unite, without the
power of afterwards separating, MUST BE
MADE MORE DURABLE; and such is the effect Of
this wonderful improvement. unsurpassed in
Importance by any discovery of this progress
i've age. All, therefore, DESTROYS of having
| painting done in an elegant and durable man
ner, and with quick dispatch, will find it to
their advantage to consult US at shop, over

The said paint is in every way superior to any
that has heretofore como under our notice,
