No. 13211 TO THE LADIES OF LIVERPOOL AND ITS VICINITY. IN consequence of the unprecedented depression of Trade in all parts of the Kingdom, - H. G. IRELAND, OF 92, BOtD-STREET, has come to the determination of Selling the whole of his valuable and extensively-assorted STOCK OF FURS, COMPRISING EVERY DESCRIPTION. And all the Novelties that have vet ap peared in the London or . . Parkin► Afadris, AT PRICES CONSIDERABLY REDUCED. In inviting the Ladies to an inspection thereof, he does not wish to hold out any absurd inducement. He fee's. however, gratified in observing. that as he purchases his Skins precisely upon the same terms as the largest Wholesale Houses, and a'so Manufactures them, he obtains thereby an advantage over the smaller purchaser, who merely retails them, and is enabled to charge much Lower than they possibly can. The Esta blishment is. moreover, exclusively devoted to the Sale of FURS: and the great extent and variety of the Stock will not be found surpassed in any Retail House in England. SABLE GOODS will this yenr he fully TWENTY-FIVE PER CENT. LOWER than similar Goods were last season. To ALTERATIONS and REPAIRS it will always be his study to devote as much attention and cure as if he was en gaged in the manufacture of new articles; and as he never trusts them to other than the most clever artizans the trade can produce. and takes every care that all the departments of his House are.under his own inspection, and on the premises. he has the utmost. security for the puncual and faithful exe cution of every order with which he may be entrusted. 0 • FRENCH CORSETS. Ms. FLYNN begs to inform the Ladies of Liver pool and its Vicinity, that in addition to her usual large Stock of her own Manufactered Goods, she has just received direct from Paris a splendid Assortment of the celebrated PATENT ELASTIC STAYS, which she will feel honoured in submitting to the inspection of her esteemed patrons. Sly keeps on hand a great variety of Moreen and Crinoline Petticoats, at present so touch admired. 24, WHITECIMPEL. opposite Derby-street, Norember, 1847. EXTRAORDINARY CHEAP SALE OF SHAWLS.

BELL'S PATENT MINERAL PAINT. _ _ _ This Paint is ready for use, is greatly superior, and not half the price of Oil Paint; will never chip or blister, and will dry in a few hours. It is invaluable as a coating for ships' sides and bottoms ; being sufficiently liquid to be laid on cold, and will dry under fresh or salt water, so that the action of the waves will not re move it for years. It is also peculiarly adapted for the pre servation of all materials or surfaces exposed to the action of the weather; all descriptions of iron or metal work, wood laid under ground or water, or imbedded in stone or brick, pre serving, the wood or metal in its original soundness, and being perfectly waterproof, it will be found a certain remedy for leaky roofs, spouts,. and gutters ; is also an admirable coating for farming; utensils, doors, sheds, out-houses, fencing, railing, &c. Sold in casks of two, four, six, and ten gallons, and upwards, at Is. 6d. per gallon. DIERCTIONS FOR. USE. This Paint is to be applied as thin as possible, with a short haired stiff brush, which will bear pressure. EMERSON'S ROYAL PATENT CEMENT PAINT. MANUFACTORY-FORD-S'TREE7', VAUXHALL-ROAD LIVERPOOL. CHAFFER and 'FIIONIPSON hiving purchased from the Pa teutee, Dr. Emerson, of Pittsburg, North America, the right to MANUFACTURE and VEND the above celebrated PAINT, are now ready foe delivering the same. This valuable and economic Paint, (being only about one sixth the price of Oil Paint, and yet more durable,is far supe rior to any other at present in use in this country,) for ont-door work, such as Fronts of Houses, and all places exposed to the weather, giving a beautiful fine cut-stone appearance. It being altogether of a Mineral Composition, the atmospheric air does not act on it as with other Paints in which oily or ani mal matter is introduced ; but when laid on the walls it rapidly acquires the hardness of Stone, and does not chip or blister, — it being fully tested that the severest American Winter has no effect whatever on it. It is made of any tint or shade, but a fine Portland Stone Colour is generally preferred. It is simple in its application, being ready for use on opening the Cask, and may be laid on with a common Paint-brush. From its adhesive quality it will cling to any surface—Brick, Stone, Asphalte, or Roman Cement ; to the latter it has a pecu liar affinity, and may be applied while wet. Sold in iron-bound Casks of One Cwt., Els.; Two Cwt., iss. Three Cwt., 925. Fine qualities for Inside Work at 10s. and 12s. per Cask of One Cwt.

GREAT FI RE IN MARKET-STREET, MANCHESTER ; ENTIRELY CONSUMING A LARGE SQUARE OF WARE HOUSES. OFFICES, AND SHOPS. IN the last great Fi re i n G eorge -street, Manchester, I nine larve 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 suffered the same calamity. The only Safe which brought its contents uninjured out of the burning mass being the one alluded to below. " Mawchester, August 13th, 1847. " GENTLEMM—in the late Fire in Market-street, which entirely gutted the entire block 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•Saces, 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 l arge 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' ac ti ve wor ki ng 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 Safe s , Clo se t s , an d Doors in the World, lined with their unequalled Fire-resisting Cham bers. Out of upwards of 20.000 of their Safes in use amongst the Manufacturing and Commercial Houses of Great Britain— the class best able to appreciate their value—numemns 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 fierce Fire; Safe most severely burnt outside; contents unsinged. Fire at Messrs. J. and \V. Walkers', the extensive builders, Birkenhead; buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in them, including the contents of large Iron Safe and drawers, standing besides hiilners'; the contents o f Mil ners ' un i n j ured, and in use now. _ _ Fire at V(essrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a very strong fire; azain 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 Sate covered with brickwork with double Iron doors burnt out; Milners' entirely preserving its contents. _ _ eneiiiQueen-street, Glasgow; a great number of Safes and Closets burnt out; no books saved throughout the buildings excepting Messrs.

Like "://Yam," seek the "general good," Let confiaence be understood : And then, like Ilvam, you will soar, And be exalted more and more. To show why "Hyam's" name we use, 'Tis for the honest, liberal views ; He meets the people's wishes, and Commands support from all the land.
