Rbnprbwshiee Dibectobt Office,

Paisley, July, 1853. ADDEESS,

G. rOWLEE, in ushering to the Public the Fourteenth Edition of the Directory and General Advertiser, begs to return his sincere thanks for the patronage he has hitherto enjoyed, and trusts that the present Work will be found equally deserving their countenance and support.

To the Magistrates, the Clergy, Merchants, Manufacturers, Agents, and Office-hearers of Public Institutions, he offers his respeetful

thanks ; and to all those who have favoured him with their punctual attention to his notices.

Every person is aware that the chief value of a work of this kind consists in the accuracy of its details, and the distinct arrangement of its several parts. In securing these essential requisites, he has in this, as in all former editions of his Directory, spared neither labour nor expense ; and as this can only be compensated by an extensive sale of the Work, he trusts he will meet with his usual encouragement from a discerning Public. — 67 5

* The Birth Place of Alexander Wilson, the American Ornithologist.—Bom 6th July, 1766; died 23d August, 1813. The Columbia Society of Fine Arts, of which he was a member, walked in procession he/ore the hearse, and wore crape round tJieir arms for thirty days. His remains were deposited in the cemetery of the Swedish Church, in the district of Southwark, Philadelphia. While in the enjoyment of health, he had, in a conversation with a friend on the subject of death, expressed a wish to be buried in some rural spot, sacred to peace and solitude; whither the charms of nature might invite the steps of the votary of the muses and the lover of science, and v)here the birds might sing over his grave. It has been matter of regret to those of his friends to whom was confided the mournful duty of ordering his funeral, tliat tliis desire had not been made known to them, otherwise it should have been piously observed. A plain marble tomb marks where his dust reposes, on which appears the following inscription: This Monument covers the remains of Alexander Wilson, author of the American Ornitiiology. He was born in Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland, on the 6th July, 1766; emigrated to the United States in the year 1794; and died in Philadelphia, of the dysentery, on the 23d August, 1813, aged 47.

Postage Stamps.

Stamps may be procured at the Post office, or Stamp office, 2

County place ; labels, Id., 2d., and Is. each, and covers at \\d. and 2^d. each. When the value of stamps on the letter is less than the amount of the postage to which it is liable, the letter will be charged double the amount of such difference on delivery. Stamps may be used for printed votes and proceedings in Parliament, and on foreign, colonial, and ship letters, &c., outwards. If any letter, however, addressed to places beyond the sea, bear an insufficient number of stamps, it will be sent to the "Dead Letter office, to be returned in all practicable cases to the writer. Stamps are not permitted to be used on Letters arriving in the United ffingdom, from the colo • nies or foreign countries. These Regulations are applicable to newspapers, in cases where they are liable to postage. If the stamps affixed to letters have been mutilated or defaced, the letter will be liable to the unpaid rate.

The Post office do^uot convey packages exceeding 1 6 ounces in weight inland, except in the case of Parliamentary papers, and other privileged documents. The above are the charges on all letters posted and delivered in the United Kingdom, without regard to in the case of letters posted and distance ; and there is no difference delivered witliin the bounderies of the old Penny Post Offices in towns. The rate of postage is affected by the weight entirely, and not by the number of sheets or enclosures.

and so on, half ounces not being counted when the letter exceeds 1 ounce. The postage is uniform, and applies, in whatever part of the United Kingdom the letter is posted, or to whatever colony it is directed to. In the case of East India letters, this rate applies only to those passing by the Falmouth packets, and thence overland, and not to those passing in the first place through France. There is no limitation to any particular weight.

Ship Letters. These include letters passing by private ships, between any place in the United Kingdom, and a place beyond seas, foreign or colonial, including Ceylon, the Mauritus, the Cape, and the East Indies. Owners, Consignees, or Charterers, (resident in the United King- dom) and the Owner, Consignees, and Shippers of goods on board vessels, inward bound, are entitled to receive their letters from sea postage, to the extent of six ounces. A penalty of ten pounds is incurred by parties falsely superscribing a letter as Owner, Shipper, Charter, or Consignee.

Money Orders. The most secure mode of transmitting Bank Notes, Bank Post Bills or Drafts, is to divide each and send the halves by different posts, waiting the acknowledgment of the one half before forwarding the other. Coin should not be sent by post, and persons having occasion to transmit small sums, will avoid all risk by sending the money through the medium of the Money Order Office, which is carried on by the Post Office on the public account. The charge for such orders will be threepence on sums of Two Pounds and under, and sixpence on sums between Two and Five Pounds. No order will be given for sums beyond this amount. To avoid trouble, it must be understood that the party in whose favour the order is drawn must attend personally to receive it.

THE NEW SHIRT, HOSIERY, STAY, and GENERAL UNDERCLOTHING ESTABLISHMENT, was opened from a conviction that great necessity existed for this Branch receiving some more decided attention so as to prevent the necessity that many were under of going to Glasgow whenever they were in want of such Goods, it being notorious that no choice, not even an ordinary Stock could be had here. The short trial I have already had, proves that I was not mis- taken, the daily testimony of my numerous Visitors being "I'm sure there was great need for such a Shop in Paisley, I hope you'll be well supported." I regret the delay and inconvenience which many of my Cus- tomers have experienced in their Shirt Orders, this has arisen solely from the difficulty I have had in getting good Sewers ; this difficulty, however, I have now to a great extent overcome, and have the satisfaction of being able to execute all Orders, to whatever extent, on very short notice. The Stock of Underclothing on hand is now very large; suitable for every class, and in all the different sizes, makes, and styles. Ladies will find this department worthy their inspection, being wholly Town-made; they are all as well sewed as bespoke Goods, and many new and beautiful shapes will be found among them. An experienced Female attends this department. The Stock of Stays is also very large, including every make from the common Jean, Is. 6d,, to French Elastic Wove, 14s. A LARGE ASSOHTMENT OF CHILDREN'S STAYS. The Children's Department, besides all the various necessaries in Underclothing, contains a great variety of Sewed Robes and Frocks, Carrying Cloaks, Pelisses, Dresses, Polkas, Pinafores, Over- alls, Sewed and Embroidered Hats and Bonnets, Caps, &c. &c, &c. GENTLE BI EN are especially invited to the Shirt Department, which comprises all that the most fastidious can desire, in quality, styles, and make, from the Cotton Shirt with Linen Fittings, 2s., to the beautiful all Linen Shirts, 10s. 6d., and Rich Embroidered Fronts, 12s. Regattas from Is. lid. to 3s. 3d., all fast colours warranted. Heavy Stripes, from Is. 9d. to 2s. 2d. Boys' Shirts, every size, in White, Regatta, and Common Stripes. Webster's Celebrated "Unique" Shirt, ^ Soly by me only in Town, and at the Maker's Prices. A large Stock of Beautiful Neck Ties, in Men and Boys' Sizes. SILK AND COTTON UMBRELLAS. Hosiery^ Gloves^ Corded Skirts, Sewed Collars, Chemizettes^ Sleeves, Sewed Trimmings, Laces, Muslins, Pocket Hankerchiefs, Braces, SfC. I intend having every Novelty in my various departments, so soon as they are introduced into the Markets, and hope to render my Establishment what has been so long wanted in Town, viz., " a thorough Outfitting Establishment."

After a lengthened series of experiments, Mr. M'K. has brought this art to great perfection, as testified by a case of Portraits displayed in the Johnstone exhibition. Considering the simplicity of the pro- cess, the short period of time required, and the moderate charges made, we have little doubt Mr. M'Kenzie will be highly successful.

TO THE PUBLIC.

Where merchants live, and wholesale dealers, And various kinds of small retailers ; Surgeons, mid wives, and innkeepers. Blacksmiths, painters, and chimney-sweepers. "Who have to let well-furnished rooms, Who curl hair and sell perfumes, Who strive from drowning you to save, Who make your coffins, dig your graves, Who guard your merits when you're gone, By graving them on your tomh- stone. Who for misdeeds bestow rebukes. Who bind, buy, sell, or lends out books ; Bellmen, door-keepers, and precentors, Number who vote for parliamenters, The members of incorporations. all fill And who our public stations ; Town-criers, agents, auctioneers. And who at funerals furnish tears. Ministers, teachers, police rules. Sabbath and week-day evening schools, Those men who vigorous efforts join, Tp circulate the word divine, When banks are open, and when shut, And where all carriers put up ; The places whence all our coaches start, When they arrive, and when depart. The time of starting of the post, Where stamps are sold, and what they cost, The savings bank, fire engines' stations. The newest tables of taxation. About the boats which will convey Yourself or goods the cheapest way Tables by which you'll quickly see How days of weeks and months agree, Letters writers, money lenders, Fish, bacon, egg, and other venders. Cattle shows, and ploughing matches. The regattas, and steam coaches. Porters, barrowmen, and their fares For to convey your goods or wares. Sailing vessels, large and small. Agents, masters, trade and all. Where you may have the cheapest reading,

Also steam vessels and cowfeeding ; I these and other things will show. Which 'tis desirable to know, Kno-wledgre like this there's little doubt. Few prudent men will g-o without. You'll have it all, you soon will see. If you become possess'd of me. /ICCOi//^r BO^/
