Excerpt from The Decorator's Assistant About the reign of, William and Mary, was imported to this country, along with othe Dutch fashions, the mode of building distin guished by the name of Flemish Bond, and which soon, and indeed almost ever since, bore the bell, by reason of its plausible exterior. We are, now, however, more sensible of its counterbalancing inferiority as a bond, and what with the spreading use of compo, and the fact that the difference between it and the English bond is only discernible at a small dis tance. From the work, together with a germi nating disposition to return to the fashions of ou'; forefathers, it is likely to drop into desue tu e. Fire and waterproof preparation. Slake common stone lime in a close vessel, and when cool pass eight quarts through a fine sieve add to it one quart of fine salt and two gallons of pure water. Boil and skim. Then, to every four, gallons of this mixture, add one and a quarter pounds of rock alum, three fourths of a pound copperas, half a pound potash, and five quarts fine beach sand. This wash will now admit any colouring matter that maybe desired, and maybe applied with a paint or whitewash brush, in the same man ner as oil paints. A writer remarking on the good qualities of this preparation for roofs, says It looks better than paint, will 'st0p leaks in the roof, prevent moss from growing, and, when laid upon brick-work, will render it impenetrable to rain or moisture. A wash of this description might be beneficially applied to the roofs of houses, &c., instead of paints. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
