A new ink is about to appear, called the Waverley

Ink, to the excel- lence of which Dr. Hassell certifies. It flows freely from the pen does not injure or corrode those of metal, is unaffected by heat or moisture, never thickening or gathering mildew. Will not literary men above everybody be thankful tor such an excellence. It is a chemical solution, containing but very little gum, and though made from galls, the tan is removed from the gallate of iron, and the brown tint usually remarks able in modern inks is thus prevented. A rigid attention to the propor- tions of the fluid and the purity of the ingredients produces an un- changeable colour, which is as valuable as the unchanging fluidity is con- venient in use.
