GREAT FIRE IN MARKET-STREET, MANCHESTER ; ENTIRELY CONSUMING A LARGE SQUARE OF WARE. HOUSES, OFFICES, AND SHOPS. IN the last great Fire in George-street, Manchester, I nine large Houses had their Books burned in Iron Safes, Closets with Iron Doors, Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) Safes, &c. &c. &c. ; and again on the above recent occasion, a great number of parties have suirered the same calamity. The only Safe which brought its contents uninjured out of the burning mass being the one alluded to below. " Manchester, August 13th, 1847. " GENTLEMEN In the late Fire in Market-street, which entirely gutted the entireblock of buildings of which my Ware house formed part, I have sincere pleasure in informing you that my books, together with a quantity of valuable papers, watches, &c., were preserved uninjured in one of your Fire resisting Safes, which I strongly recommend to the public. " I am your obedient servant, "THOMAS HAIGH, 'Woollen Merchant, " New Brown-street and Market-street. " Messrs. Milner and Son." The outside of this Safe was partially melted: the contents inside unsinged, being steamed (boiled, instead of burned) by the evaporating principle of the Safe. Near to it a large Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) chambered Safe, full of valuable Books and Documents before the Fire, was found to contain nothing but tinder and ashes after it ! In the numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests which Milners' Safes have been exposed to—every description of Safe in use—Fireproof (so called) or otherwise have been burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the scientific and practical authorities who have tested them, and the Patentees during seven years' active working of their patent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no pains nor cost in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled to pledge themselves at all times to supply the most complete and secure depositories for Books, Documents, and Valuables • in cluding' the strongest Wrought-iron Safes, Closets, and Doors in the World. lined with their uneaualled Fire-resisting Cham bers. Out of upwards of 20,000 of their Sates In use amongst the Manufacturing and Commercial Houses of Great Britain — the class best able to appreciate their value —numerous cases of exposure to accidental fire have occurred, from which Thomas Milner and Son select the following as instances, in which they are of opinion that no other Safe than their own would have preserved its contents unburnt. Fire at Mr. J. Blackaller's Ship and Chandlery Store, Spar ling-street, Liverpool; a strong and fierc Fire; Site most severely burnt outside • contents unsinged. lwe at Messrs. J. and W. Walkers', the extensive builders, Birkenhead; buildings entirely gutted, everythinv burnt in them, including the contents of large Iron Sate an. , , &ewers, standing besides Milners'; the contents of Milners' uninjured, n.l in use now. _ _ fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a very strong re; again the contents of Milners' Safe the only thing saved on the premises. Fire at Plimsaul Brothers', of Plymouth; a very extensive and destructive fire; a large Iron Safe covered with brickwork with double Iron doors burnt out ; Milners' entirely preserving its contents. Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow; a great number of Safes and Closets burnt out; no books saved throughout the buildings excepting Messrs. S. R. and Thomas Browns', in Miners Safe.

TO THE NOBILITY, CLERGY, GENTRY AND INHA BITANTS GENERALLY OF THE UNITED KINGDOM, WHILE much may be clone by the Legislature to raise the health of Society to its highest . possible stan dard, the attainment of this desirable object is much more dependent upon the cultivation of individual health. The welfare of the social whole, is made up of the welfare of its parts. A becoming attention to personal health, then, is an important means of advancing the great cause of Sanatory Reform ; and this attention cannot be more beneficially directed than to the correction of all irregularities in the functions of the Digestive organs, and to the removal of the first symptoms of the many dangerous and fatal disorders which cut short, and render painful, the existence of man. These objects can only be attained by the use of medicinal agents ; and we respectfully inform you that we are the proprietors of one which, for twenty years, has been most celebrated. MOXON'S EFFERVESCENT MAGNESIAN APERIENT is the most agreeable and efficient medicine ever discovered, containing all the properties of the best Saline Purgatives, with the palatable qualities of a glass of SODA WATER. Pleasant from its effervescing form, febrifuge in its influence on the stomach and system, certain in its operation on the bowels, whenever a purgative is required, this elegant preparation is the best that can be used. It is especially adapted for the relief of Habitual or Casual Costiveness, Bilious Affections. Indigestion, Heartburn, Pains in the Head, Lowness of Spirits, Nausea, Irritation of the Stomach and Bowels, Piles, Fistula, the effects of excess either in eating or drinking, &c., and, by its occasional use during the summer months, the prevention of those serious dis orders, Cholera, Diarrhsea, and Dysentery. Thousands of those who, from habits of life, or hereditary constitution, are subject to that painful and, in the end, dan gerous disorder, the GOUT, have found astonishing relief from the use of this preparation. If taken I egularly, its cooling, antacid, and corrective properties will altogether prevent the accession of this disorder ; and, if taken during the fit, will speedily relieve the pain and limit its duration. Many Medical Authors of great celebrity . have recommended it for this pur pose. Extracts from their works, and many other testimo nials, are contained in the bill wrapped round each bottle. Visitors to Harrowgate, Cheltenham, Leamington, Bath, and. other Spas, find it to be of great service in assisting the opera tion of the waters. _ _ _ It is sold in bottles at 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., and Ils., the latter containing five of the first size. We also prepare a concentrated form of the celebrated _ _" COMPOUND DECOCTION OF SARSAPARILLA" of the London Pharmacopoeia, which we declare to contain all the alterative, antiscorbutic, and restorative properties of that decoction, in an enduring and portable shape. It is sold in bottles at 4s. 6d., 125., and 12s. ; equal, respectively to 6, 16, and 32 pints of the London Decoction. All respectable Medicine Vendors sell our Medicines, and we undertake to forward any quantity amounting to 20s. or more, to any part of the Kingdom, carriage free, on receipt of a Postoffice Order for the amount. We remain, your obedient Servants, BENJ. MOXON and SONS, Chemists, Hull. Observe that the Signature of the proprietor, "G. C. Serjeant," is written on the Government Stamp. SERJEANT'S LOTION, the only effectual Remedy against Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, Sciatica, and Lum bago. Sold by the Proprietor, G. C. SERJBANT, No. 7, Le velPs-court, Paternoster-row, London; and by all Vendors of Medicine. Price 2s. 9d. per Bottle. This excellent Medicine, so universally esteemed, is unat tended with the least danger or inconvenience; hundreds have experienced its happy and salutary effects since it was first introduced; and such are the properties of this invaluable Specific that persons labouring under the most distressing' Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, and Lumbago, and rendered thereby incapable of assisting themselves, have been relieved in a few hours. The astonishing success which has crowned the application •f this external Medicine in the most hopeless and deplorable cases, when the unhappy sufferer had despaired of ever gaining even the least relief, and this after the ablest advice and every other means had completely failed, most justly entitles it to tie attention of the afflicted. Amongst many which are being daily receired are thefollow ing testimonials: , Well-street, Cripplegate. SIR,—I have been several weeks confined to my bed by Gout and Rheumatism, not a part from my head to my feet free from pain, and as helpless as an infant: not even a finger could I move. In this unpleasant situation I was informed by my me dical attendant he had applied all the usual remedies, and that I might remain months in my deplorable situation. Fortunately your remedy was made known to me, or I might have been to this day confined to my bed. After a close appli cation of four days, my troublesome companion began to dis appear; in a week I was capable of walking about my room, and by another week's perseverance in the use of your Medi cine was enabled to leave London. Fearful of another attack, you will please to send six bottles.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant,— D. W. STONE. 14,13elmont-place,TVandsworth-road, Oct. 26, 1844. SIR S feel in duty bound to acknowledge, that after suffer ing amt.' pains from Sciatica, or severe Rheumatic affection in the hip joint, and being deprived of rest, I was persuaded to try your embrocation, and have the pleasure to say that after three applications I was restored to my usual health ; and, al though two years have passed, I have no return of the disorder. —I am, Sir, gratefully yours, EDWARD NOYES. Morleo's Hotel. Strand,lBth August, 1846. SIR,—I have hitherto had a prejudice against having recourse to advertised medicines, but as I have for years been a severe sufferer from Lumbago, as well as Sciatica, and having tried several of the most eminent Physicians of London and Paris I was induced by a friend to make a trial of your liquid, called " Serjeant's Lotion." I think it in gratitude due to you to say, in less than an hour from the time I applied the Lotion, I felt the most pleasant and indescribable relief. The immediate effect was to produce a short but tranquil and most refreshing slumber, from which I awoke to enjoy that which was, from its novelty, greatest happiness—perfect quietude and freedom rom Dam. The number of poor souls that suffer as I have is immense, and if the publication of this testimony can induce one to accept of the salvation you offer, I shall feel that I have not lived in vain.—With many thanks 1 am yours, HENRI VILLENNEVE.

"Sir,—lt is now three years and a half since I was sorely afflicted with rheumatic gout, the suffering from which induced me to try all the proposed remedies that extensive medical experience could devise, without obtaining any satisfactory relief from pain. During one of the paroxysms a friend ad vised me to try BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, observing that he had in some severe cases taken them himself, and they proved very successful. I instantly adopted his ad vice, and to my joy the excruciating torment soon began to abate, and a few boxes restored me to health, since which I have had no return of the complaint. I trust you will give publicity to my case, that suffering humanity may know how to obtain a remedy for this distressing disease.—l am, Sir, your obedient humble servant, " MICHAEL NASMYTI;." The above testimonial is a further proof of the efficacy of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, which afford speedy relief to those afflicted with gout, rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, tic doloreux, pains in the head and face, and all analagous com plaints. The never-failing effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEU MATIC PILLS in curing every description of Gout and Rheu matism, hare secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or present times. They not oulY give relief in a few hours, but restore to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are equally speedy and certain in lumbago, sciatica, pains in the head or face, and indeed in every rheumatic or gouty affection ; in fact, such has been the rapi dity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it; and there is scarcely a city, town, or village in the kingdom but contains many grate ful evidences of its benign influence.

JONES'S ESSENCE OF CONCENTRATED COMPOUND DECOCTION OF RED JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA. The high esteem in which Sarsaparilla has of late years been held by Medical Practitioners, its reputation as a safe and effi cacious Domestic Medicine, and its consequently extensive use among all classes of society, has rendered it one of the most important remedies of the present age. This preparation is composed of the finest Jamaica Sarsapa rilla imported, and prepared in Vacuo, by which the whole, of its essential properties are retained. Th e P ropr i e t or can con fidently recommend it as one of the most efficient preparations extant. It is most particularly taken as an alterative and pu rifier in the following affections :--Eruption of the Skin, Pains in the Bones, Ulcerated Sore Throat, Scorbutic Affections, Local and General Debility, and all diseases arising from the impure state of the blood.

" Heavitree, Exeter, April, 24, 1844. " Sir,—l feel pleasure in being able to bear my strong and unsolicited testimony to the excellence of your ' Frampton's Pill of Health,' which I consider a most safe, efficacious, and very superior general medicine. The widow of an officer, an elderly lady, and near relative of mine, has used them—very rarely having recourse to other medicine for a long period of years. She has recommended them extensively, and in one instance in which she induced a person to adopt them, and sup plied the first box herself. they have proved of extraordinary efficacy. I think that, perhaps, there is scarcely any other of the many patent medicines before the public of equal value an a friend in need ;' certainly none possessed of superior claims. I shall be happy on all occasions to give them my individual recommendation; and am, Sir, your obedient servant, " 8* Sold by THOMAS PROUT, 229, Strand, London.
