W. of Mineral far and oil paints in small casks
and cases, at a very moderate price.
The Mineral Ter Paint is particularly adapted for all out-buildings, being impervious to the weather, and prevents the decay of whatever material is coated with it.
To the architect, engineer, and builder, in the construction of buildings and of ratiroads, it will be found of great value for wood laid under ground, or imbedded in stone or brickwork, for files, in- ferior slates, and plaster work, exposed to the wea- ther; for piles, flood-gates, bridges, jetties, and piers, and all material in any exposed situation, liable to speedy decay possessing, as it does, the property of preserving Timber in its original sound- ness without making it brittle, and is the best pre- server of Iron-work yet discovered. It was used in repairing York Minster, and is regularly, used for the Hounslow and Croydon barracks and other buildings belonging to government,
Ship builders, ship owners, and barge-masters, will find it the best material for painting the bot- toms of vessels and dressing the decles-for painting the funnels of steam-boats, boilers, the flooring and
sides of engine-rooms and iron tanks for electual ly destroying the worn, and preventing the dry-rot. It has been used upon the Emerald, Duchess of Kent, Prince George, Royal George, Duke of Sus. rex. and the city of Boulogne-steam-vessels, and upon other steam and sailing vessels with perfect satisfaction.
Noblemen and agriculturists will find it the best material for park fences; farm-buildings, wea. ther-boarding, burdles, hop-poles, and garden-walls; after it is laid on it is not affected by heat, und from the chemical ingredients of which itis manufactured it not only becomes extremely durable, but has a brighter and more glossy apperance then ordinary black point, and is cheaper than any other can be used. It is also specially prepared for canvass and cordage, and is, therefore, peculiarly adapted for all canvass roofs and coverings, preserving and mak- ing them water tight. Mr. Roy has much pleasure in referring, as a specimen, to the canvass roof over the artificial fee at the Colosseum, Regent's Park.
