HUBBUCK'S PATENT WHITE ZINO PAINT is the most durable and beautiful paint known, does not stain or discolour with the atmosphere of large towns, and by their process, which is patented, is cheaper tuan White Lead. It is especially adapted for painting iron, as, by virtue of A semi-galvanic action, it enters the pores and forms amalgam of the two metals, which protects the Iron from decay or incrustation. Ifc should be used instead of Red Lead, which is proved to be destructive to Iron exposed to Salt Water. Adulterations.—Some Paiut J Grinders have been selling Zinc Paint adulterated with Sulphate of Barytes, ia proportions varying from ten to thirty per cent. No workman can produce good work with such material. Those who have obtained the Patent White Zinc Paint from, grindera who have not adulterated it, will never willingly use any other Paint for their best work. Each Cask' of Pure White Zinc is stamped — "Hubbuck, London, Patent. , * Thomas HußßycK and son, White Lead, Oil," Paint, and Vabjush W.ORks, ?i Limb Street. " For public schools,' and all rooms occupied by children there will now be no excuse for using poisonous paints. Parents have remarked that their children on returning from the country to newly-painted houses have suffered in health, The reason is cvi- , dent — the breath extracts the insidious, poison from paint, and the lungs draw ia the deadly vapour." : MARAVILLA COCOA.—Fob Bbeak fast.--The "Globe" says; tfVarious Importers and Manufacturers have attempted to attain a reputation for their prepared Cocoas, but we doubt whether any thorough •success had been ; achieved until MESSRS.
