VNHE approach Of Spring will probably suggest
4 to the citizens Of Hishorough and IT'S sicj-
nifty the plopriety Of having their houses painted,
as it Is favorable season for work Of this kind;
and the subscriber takes this method Of inform.
ing his friends and the public generally, that he
is prepared to do all kinds Of work inr his line
faithfully and well, and at moderate prices.
Besides The usual style Of painting with Lead,
he has made himself thoroughly acquainted with
the manner ofusing Riake,s Fire Pr0Of
Paint. and the Zinc Paint. The former
is Intended for outside painting, and is both FASH
ionable and cheap; the latter is intended 10, inside
painting. and Is recommended by the fact that it
makes paint whittier aud cheaper than lead.
All ktnds Of Graining, IN imitation Of Oaks,
Walnut, Maple, &c, will be executed with taste
and neatness.
No delay need be occasioned by want Of
materials, as they can now be had al the Drug
