SIR A series of experiments conducted by me,
with the utmost care, during the past three years.
upon all the various paints and artificial prepara.
tons for the preservation of timber, have led me
10 the important discovery that the White Zinc
Paint manufacturedby the New Jersey Zinc Com
pany, serves-as a perfec: protection against the
ravages Of the marine worm, and the formation OF
barnacles, whilst no other paint preparation OF
any kind combines the same protective effect.
| am now preparing full report on this impor-
tant subject the Bureaus of Yards and Docks, al
Washington, and shall send with it complete Sc
ries of specimens ofwood and metal plates, which
were covered with the, different paints and pre-
parations and then exposed alike for an entire
season, in salt water opposite this navy yard all
of which illustrates. in the most striking manner,
the invaluable qualities and decided superiority oi
your White Zinc Paint over all other kinds
paints, especially for marine purposes. sz,, y
You are at liberty 10 give full publicityto the
above stated facts, which are of too much impor-
tance 10 be kept from the naval and commercial
world. I am, respectfully, your ebedient servant,
