Some weeks since VIC mentioned that {. W.
Grcenleaf & Co., of North Berwick had comlnen-
cod the manufacture of The Mirror Stove Polish,
n standard article Of much value. Since then
VIC have received sample Of their wares which
proves all that has been said in their praise. Re-
Gently VIC paid flying visit to their manufac.
tory where they are employing ten hands and
manufacturing at the rate Of gao gross per
year, for which they consume about seventy
three tons Of plumbaso. quito quantity OF lead
besides other ingredients peculiar to this p"rtic-
Mar brand of manufacture. We wish them SUI
