A treatise on carriages : comprehending coaches, chariots, phaetons, curricles, whiskies, &c: together with their proper harness, in which the fair prices of every article are accurately stated . ility have fupportersand coronets of various patterns. A minute de-fcription of the rules of Herald Painting wouldbe unneccirary here ; a reference to EdmonjonsBeck oj Heraldry will give every information onthat fubjeft. Plate xix. and the defcriptionthereof, will give fuch information as is common-ly required. The ornament painting is merely to beautifythe carriage, which it does materially, when it iswell executed ; but, when otherwife, it hurts theappearance of it. This depends on the capacityof the artift : the pannels had better be entirelyplain, than daubed, as many of them are, in imi-tation of painting ; and in particular that of He-raldry, which requires fome merit to execute itproperly.

Two ovals, in which the arms are fe-parately placed, but not if the lady is an heirefs;the arms muft then be borne in a fhield, or oval,with the ladys arms in the middle : there is norule for any form of fhield, whether round, oval,or cornered, makes no difference for a gentle-mans arms; but, for a ladys, the form of a lo-zenge is the rijle, except when married and em-rpalled.
