PATENT ASPHALTED FELT,

FOR ROOFING, &c, &c.

TH E Undersigned has just received, ex " Camilla," direct from the Patentees, M'Neill and Co., London, FORTY -Tv7o ROLLS of the above article, the first of it that has been introduced into this colony. This improved Patent Felt is used for covering Roofs of Houses, Cottages, Verandahs, Out buildings, Sheds, and every other description of building, in lieu of Slates, Tiles, Shingles, Zinc, &c. ; and for lining Granaries and Store-houses, for covering Gardensheds, and Frames, and Corn and Hay-ricks. It is also used for lining the outside and inside of Walls, and as a protection to Ceilings, under flooring, from w*t and damp, at the same time deadening sound. It is made of the strongest and most durable materials, and saturated with the best Asphalte or Bitumen (the same as selected by Sir Isamberi Brunei for the Thames Tunnel, being found the most Elastic and effective Resister of Wet). The Felt has ' now been [in use for many years in some of the most exposed parts of Britain, and in every climate of the globe, and given the greatest satisfaction. Its great superiority over every other description of Roofing consists in its " cheapness, lightness, elasticity, and durability," advantages which no other description of Roofing combines. IN POINT OF ECONOMY, IT HAS DECIDED ADVANTAGES. The expense of Felt for Roofing, as compared with Slates, Tiles, or Shingles, is in most cases — particularly where Slates or Tiles are brought from a distance — less then onehalf; and in the Timber and Wood-work, there is a still greater saving, as the weight of the Felt is only 31bs per yard ; being onetenth of the weight of Slates, Tiles, or Shingles. The Roofing Felt will be sold, with printed directions for u<e, to parties who may wish to lay their own Roofs ; or the undersigned will undertake to work it at a trifling advance on the price at which it will be sold — viz., ONE SHILLING per running yard, William Tattersall, Plumber, Painter, Glazier, &c.
