-4`gigs,---We consider it only our duty to inform you of the
entire preservation of all the books and papers* contained in
the large safe you recently supplied us with„ although exposed
during Sunday last to a fire which destroyed the larger part of
our works. This is the more remarkable, as the intense heat
has in many parts melted the outside of the safe.
"We are ofepinion that so successful a vindication of the
merits of your tnvenLion cannot, on public grounds, be too
generally known; and we therefore leave you at liberty to use
this letter in any way you may wish.

" GENTLEMEN,—Sonae time back I was indebted to you/
strong Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe for the protection of a
large amount of cash, against the violent and persevering
attempts of burglars at my steam-mills, in Woodstock-street,
and I have now the pleasure of informing you that I have
lately found the same impregnable security in the one I had
last from you for my provision warehouse in Brownlow-hilL
The floor was all trodden over around the safe, as if the thieves
had been at it for many hours, after which they got it out into
the back yard, and as it could not be picked or broken open,
they then filled the key-hole with gunpowder, thinking to gain
admission by explosion ; but in which they were again foiled.
"I feel it due to your invaluable safeguards to give you this
testimonial, and shall strongly recommend them to all my
friends. Please send me another of the same size for my house.
"1 am, Gentlemen, yours respectfully,
"THOMAS LEICESTER.

NEVER KNOWN TO FAIL.—BRANDE'S
BRONCHIAL SEDATIVE, equal in Medicinal effect
to Two of any other preparation for Coughs, Colds, Bron-
chitis, Asthma, Pulmonary Phthisis, Influenza, Derangement
of the Voice, and all Affections of the Chest and Lungs.
Compounded under the direction of a Professional Gentleman,
who for many years has made the Anatomy and Pathology of
the Chest and Lungs his particular study.
The Influence of BRANDE'S BRONCHIAL SEDATIVE
pursues the exact tract of the inflammatory action causing
cough. First soothing the glottis and epiglotis (the organs of
voice), its sedative influence passes along the mucous lining
of the windpipe unto the bronchii, and allaying pulmonary
irritation, giving ease and comfort to the cheat—restoring
the voice to its accustomed clearness and power.
Authentic Testimonials selected from an immense number of
others, showing the good already effected by this Medicine.

perfectly recovered. I had been for months that I could not

organs, and improves the general health.—l am, yours, &c.,

Winter comes round with its frost and its cold, and our gay autumn garments begin to wear old ;
This -is the time must all mortals confess to make a great change in the style of our dress.
And where shall we go, then, our new suits to find ? what tailor in Liverpool pleases our mind ?
'Hurrah ! cries out reason, Schwersensky and Co., these are the tailors to whom you should go.

Economy then raises up her glad voice—yes, at Schwersensky's I always rejoice.
Economy, Reason., and Fashion, all fix their zeal on Schwerseasky's, 4 and 6, WHITECH ATEL.
