London and Birmingham Railway Office, Euston Station, Bth April, 1814. CI I RS,—I am instructed to send the enclosed report of ki the results of the public experiments on your Fire resisting Boxes and Safes, at the Camden Station of this Company, which was authorised by the Directors to be made under the immediate superintendence of their own officers ; and to congratulate you on the complete success of the very severe trials by 511tCh you have allowed your admirable invention to 13,teited. I am, sirs, your obedient servant, R. CREED, Secretary. Messrs. Thomas Milner and Son, Liverpool. Patents for England, Ireland, and Scotland, realedlB4o. MILNERS' NEW PATENT FIRE-RESISTING DEED, PLATE, AND CASH BOXES, BOOK SAFES, AND GUNPOWDER MAGAZINES, &c., &c., WARRANTED TO BEAR MORE HEAT, WITHOUT INJURY TO THEIR CONTENTS, THAN ANY OTHERS OF EQUAL DIMENSIONS. Of 14 graduating sizes, suitable for all purposes, from 30s. to £l4 each ; for additional inner chamber, doubling the thickness, and trebling the resisting power 50 per cent. more each size. The Chambers within Milners' Boxes and Safes con tain the best Chemical non-conductor of heat, and Tubes imbedded therein filled with alkaline fluid, which escapes into the non-conductor whenever Fire reaches the Box and heats it to the boiling point, steaming the chambers and contents, neutralizing in the latent heat of the steam 1000 degrees of heat, keeping down the temperature, and preventing ignition. From every pint of fluid in the Chamber is slowly dis charged into and condensed in the contents of the Box upwards of 200 Gallons of Steam, of more certain avail in saving the Papers than tons of water thrown into a burning building with the same object. The advantage of this principle, embracing " the exclu sive use of any material evolving moisture on the applica tion of heat," over every other description of Box or Safe, is the advantage that Water has over every thing else in quenching Fire. An Iron Safe of one inch in solid thickness exposed to red heat will char papers within it in fifteen minutes, and remain a burning prison for them for hours afterwards. Milner's Fire-resisting Principle has been investigated, tested in Red Heat from One to Twelve Hours, in various thickness, from 1 to 6 inches, and approved by the au thorities and scientific and practical men, in the leading towns of the three kingdoms. Under the auspices of the Royal Dublin Society and the Liverpool Polytechnic Society : see Mr. Samuel Woods, jun. pamphlet " On the Preservation of Documents from Fire," &c. &c. &c. The patentees have certificates from parties whose books have been preserved by the boxes in fires on their pre mises. In the late fire in George-street, Manchester, nine out of ten houses lost their books in their iron safes. CAUTION.—None are genuine but such as have Milners' patent plates upon them , with the date " sealed 1810." Fire-resisting Safe and Box Works, 50A, Lord-street, end 47 to 53, Caile-street, Liserpool. Engaged Freight per CAMBRIA must all be shipped This Day, (Tuesday,) and To-morrow, (Wednesday.) No previously engaged Freight will be received after To-morrow.

The astonishing success which has crowned the applica tion of this external Medicine in the most hopeless and deplorable cases, when the unhappy sufferer had despaired of ever gaining even the leasirferef, ani this after the ablest advice and every otheemeans had completely failed, most justly entitles it to the attention of the afflicted. This excellent Medicine, so universally esteemed, is un attended with the least danger or inconvenience, and hundreds have experienced its happy and salutary effects since it was first introduced. Such are the properties of this invaluable Specific that persons labouring under the most distressing Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, and Lumbago, and rendered thereby in capable of assisting themselves, have been relieved in a few hours. Amongst many which are being daily received are the following Testimonials:— 4, Paternoster-row. Sitt,—Having been informed of the surprising cure of Mr. Barnes, of St. Paul's Churchyard, who was so severely afflicted by Rheumatism, the intense pain causing delirium, that he was com pelled to be confined by a strait waistcoat to prevent his commit ting any violence, and whose case was considered entirely hopeless, I was induced to ascertain the particulars, and being satisfied of the truth of my information, encouraged me to make a trial of your most invaluable Medicine, entertaining little h o p es o f success,.hav ing been many years so severe a sufferer, and tried many said to be very valuable remedies. lam very happy in being able in adding my testimony of the benefit I derived : after a few days' application the use of my limbs are perfectly restored, and I am now able to attend my business, and, making an allowance for my age, never was better in my life. To those, how ever severely afflicted and hopeless their case may have been pronounced, I beg of them to make a trial, feeling quite satisfied they will be restored to the use of their limbs, from the severe cases that have yielded fo this Me dicine. 'Health is a great blessing to those who can enjoy it, but to those who are deprived, none feels it so severe as the tradesman or mechanic, as it generally causes loss of business, and ruin on families. I shall at all times feel it my duty to make it known to those afflicted, to evince how grateful I am for my restoration, and am, Sir, yours truly, GEORGE POLLARD. October 20, 1844. Milk-street, Cheapside. SIR,—I feel it a duty I owe to society, publicly to make known the benefit I received by using your excellent Medicine. Having been confined to my house three years with Lumbago and Rheuma tism, unable to remove without the use of crutches, I had despaired of ever gaining relief, having tried every popular minedy which hay been sent by my friends from various parts of the globe, none of which had any effect. I have consulted the most able Physicians, one of whom stated, that however lamentable my case was, I ought to be thankful, from my great sufferings—being frequently in a state of madness—that I could with the assistance of crutches move at all. From the high recommendation I had of your valuable Medicine I was induced to make another effort, although in strict opposition to my medical attendants; and, doubtful as it may appear, in the short space of twelve hours I was enabled to walk the length of my warehouse without the assistance of crutches. The Physician who had declared my case hopeless was equally rejoiced as myself that he was deceived, and hoped that publicity would be given to the remedy, as the London Hospitals were not in possession of any re medy to relieve their unfortunate Rheumatic patients. Being so long an invalid, I was not without knowing a number of unhappy sufferers; to several I sent some Medicine, and am happy to state that the accounts I have received are of the most gratifying description. I trust you will use every exertion in making public your excel lent remedy, that those afflicted may know where to get relief. JOHN MITCHELL. Well-etreet, Cripplegate. SI have been several weeks confined to my bed by Gout ane Rheumatism, not a part from my heal to 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 medical attendant he had applied all the usual remedies, and that I might remain months in my deplorable situation. Fo'rtutiately your remedy was made known to me, or I migh have been to this day confined to my bed. After a close application of four days, my troublesome companion began to disappear; in a week I was capable of walking about my room, and by another week's perseverance in the use of your Medicine was enabled to leave London. Fearful of another attack, you will please to send six bottles.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, D W. STON➢. 14, Belmont-place, Wandsworth-road, Oct. 26, 1844. feel in duty bound to acknowledge, that after suffering acute pains from Sciatica, or severe Rheumatic affection in the hip joint, and being deprived of rest, I was persuaded to try your em brocation, and have the pleasure to say that after three applications I was restored to my usual health ; and, although two years have passed, I have no return of the disorder,—l am, sir, gratartily yours, EDWARD Nor Es.

THE object of this Company is to afford increased faci lities for the Draining of Land, by executing the necessary operations with the most suitable materials, in such manner as shall be deemed the most scientific, economical, and effectual, the cost incurred thereby to be adequately secured on the properly drained, or otherwise, and to be repaid with interest, by instalments. The profits resulting from scientific Draining are ad mitted by every agriculturist. Tiles (the material for Draining most frequently used) can be made by machines at less than one-half the cost for which they are now selling within the probable sphere of the Company's operations; from this source it is esti mated that a large profit will result to the shareholders combined with equivalent advantages to the agricultural interest. Deposit of .£1 per share, and the Calls not to exceed £2 10s. per share, nor be made until after two months' notice. *** Above 200 letters have been received from Land owners, many of them holding large properties in the dis trict, approving the objects of the company, and contain ing ample assurances that it will be fully employed as soon as it is prepared to commence operations.
