NETWORK DAILY TRIBUNE THURSDAY, MAY 9, 1867

We are pleased to learn that Mr.. Norton, the
maker of tie famous Morton God Pens, has
now an agency for the sale of ..his splendid pen
in Hartford. VIM. James Hamersley is the
agent, No. 263 Ma.n-st., from whom all pur-
chasers can be supplied; and dealers can pur-
chase of Mr.. Hamersley at the club rates of dis
count. Mr. Morton's system of doing business
is his own. He has been driven into the
adoption of this system by the outrageous
frauds of many unprincipled persons who trade
on MOrton's reputation and sell spurious ana
worthless pens purporting to be his, 70 such
an extent has this swindle been carried, that MI
Morton has been compelled to announce that
in future his pens will only be sold at his own
establishment, No. % Maiden-lane, New YORK,
and by his authorized and certified agents. MI.
Hamersley is the only agent for these celebrated
pens, so far as we know, in this section OF Con
necticut.
The Morton pen needs no introduction to the
readers of The Times. Thousands of our read
ers already know its superiority, many OF them
from actual trial; but there are thousands more
who may have forgotten our former lndorse-
| ment of this splendid pen, as the best gold pen
| ever made; and for their benefit we speak
| again, to advise them of these facts: |. mat
| no other gold pen is so cheap, because no
other wears so well; g. That no other is so
| well made, because Morton, by long years OF
patient and delicate experiment, and the use
! of costly and nice machinery, used by him
| alone, is able to insure a uniform and genuine
excellence, both in material and finish that Is
quite unrivaled; and, land most impOrtanD,
| That in the principle of their construction,
| these pens are immensely superior to all Others
and stand by themselves alone. They approach
! more nearly than any other gold pen, natures
model in the old fashioned goose quill, possess
ing all the elasticity and smoothness of the
| best quill ,kwith more than us spnng; ana
| this "sprng" and elasticity holds qnmpared
| by constant use for years. Go to ilamerseys
| and try one of MOrtons NO. 0-that is gen
orally his best pen-and see, reader. if, after
| having selected one to suit your hand, we ana
| not tell you the truth when we said there was
no other pen like it.-[Times, Hartford, Conn,
| April 90 1861.
GOLD PEYs-We have used many gold pens
| i'm years past and could never find one that we
| preferred to a good steel pen but Il few weeks
| since being induced by u friend To try u gold
| pen again we were both surprised and de-
| lighted to find it IA decided Improvement over
| the best steel pens Its heXibility. however, was
not perfectly adjusted to the hand, and we sent
| it back to the maDufacturer by letter; Another
came in return, which was but slight lmprov-
|
a careful statement of its DEFICIENCIES, and then
came a third which proves to be just the
article we have wanted for years; and now
| after using it few weeks it would take quite
| pile of greenbacks to buy 1t, II we knew not
! where to look for another.
! We write with far more ease than heretofore
| there is no scattering or scratching: ana we
are truly delighted with the change, The pen
is from i. Morton, No. % Maiden-lane,. New
York, who on the receipt of stamp Will send
| n circular giving n full description OF the
various sizes with the price of each.-lIhe
| Congregationalist, Boston, April IL, 1867.
After long trial of Mr.. Morton's gold pens we
| are able TO indOrse them as the very best that
We have ever put upon paper. We are now
writing with one which we have used constantly
| for years, and it is "a smooth and perfect as
| when made. AS he sells only through author
lied and certified agents, those who purchase
his pens may rely upon getting genuine and
| valuable artice.-[rhe Observer New York,
| April IL, 1867.
