GREAT FIRE AT THE GUTTA
PERCHA COMPANY'S WORKS, AND DEFEATED
BURGLARI ES.
THOMAS MILNER and SON have sincere pleasure in
communicating to their Friends and the Public the following,
new endorsements to the claims of their HOLDFAST and
FIRE-RESISTING SAFES. The Fire at the Gutta Percha
Company's Works was of the most intense character, as may
well be conceived from the nature of its food. Gutta Percha,
Oil, Naptha, reducing the buildings to a pile of gutted red-hot
walls. The Safe has.been most severely tried, as the letter
testifies, and brought its contents out of the Furnace without
a singe upon them.
"Gotta Pemba Company's Works,
"City-road, London, Bth June, 1633.
Stas,—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 of opinion that so successful a vindication of the
merits of your invention cannot, on public grounds, be too
generally known ; and we therefore leave you at liberty to use
this letter in a way you may wish.
"We are, Sirs. your obedient servants,
"THE ourrA PERCHA COMPANY.
" HENRY FORD BARCLAY.
"To Messrs. Thomas Milner and on,
47A, Moorgate-street, City, London."
* Including £3,000 worth of Cash and Bills.

"Scotland-road Mills, Liverpool, Sth June, 1853.

"GENTLEMEN,—Some time back I was indebted to your
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 i 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.

WOOLLEY'S PECTORAL CANDY.-
PATRONISED BY THE FACULTY.
For the instant relief and speedy cure of ASTHMA, COUG HS,
COLDS, and all pulmonic Affections, bas received the stamp
of public approbation. The triumphs of this remarkable
Cough Lozenge. in cases of Asthma, Hoarseness,Loss of Voice,
and Tightness of the Chest, become constantly more and more
astonishing. Common coughs, when no physical disorgani-
zation exists. and sore throat immediately yield to its healing
influence. It strengthens the lungs to resist the effect of
midden changes in the air, and it healthily braces and in-
vigorates the chest. No remedy can be resorted to that af-
fords such real ease and comfort to the chest, which so un-
clogs the lungs or so pleasantly clears the voice, as WOOL-
LEY'S PECTORAL CANDY. For aged persons it is
invaluable ; and none, whose lungs are in the least susceptible
of cold, ought to be without it. Although powerful to con-
quer disease, and exerting a decidedly purifying influence
on the blood, these Lozenges disagree not with a delicate
constitution; on the contrary, their influence is proved, by
a very large experience, to be uniformly salutary and
strengthening. Full directions for use accompany each box.
The following are a few of the many thousand cures yearly
effected by WOOLLEY'S PECTORAL CANDY :
Redditch, Worcestershire, March 17th, 1851. —Sir,
I have the pleasure of informing you of the cure of a
sister of mine of Asthma of ten years' duration, by your Pec-
toral Candy.—l am, yours truly, JAMES DUGGINS. Tern-
nerance Hotel.—N.B.-1 could tell you of another cure,
but the person said he should write to you himself. This
was the person who recommended it to my sister.
1, Kirby-street, Poplar, London, September 30th 1851.
Dear Sir,—l cannot speak too highly of the excellence of
Woolley's Pectoral Candy. 1 have sufferd for years with a
dreadful cough and difficulty of breathing. In this distress-
ing state, I was recommended to try Wodley's Pectoral
Candy, the first box of which gave me great relief; the
second box completely cured me. 1 have recommended them
to many of my friends who were similarly afflicted, who have
all received the greatest relief from them.—l am, sir, your •
obliged, OcrAvitls GLYN.—To Dr. Kernot, Surgeon, &c.,

of Woolley's Pectoral Candy.

LIVERPOOL, FEBRUARY, 1854.

During the last nine months a great advance has taken
place in the prices of BLACK TEA, viz., in many instances
6d. to 9d. per lb.-this is accounted for-by the internal
revolution in China-and the progressive reduction in the
Import Duty on Tea in England. Consequently a formidable
spirit of speculation arose, calculating upon deficient supplies
in the face of increasing consumption.

Throughout the excited state of the market we neither ad-
vanced our prices nor altered the standard of our usual
qualities, and have determined to continue the same till April
next—at which time a REVISRD LIST OF PRICES will be fur-
nished according to the state of Imports from China.

As we confine our attention to the sale of Tea and Coffee—
observing QUALITY as a PRIMARY FRATURK in all transac-
tions—we are enabled to place these two very important
articles of domestic consumption before the Consumers upon
such terms that must tend to promote their interests as well
as our own.

Ow TO PROLONG LIFE AND ENJOY IT.
—THE GREAT PURIFYING AND STRENGTH-
ENING .MEDICINE.
What though the sun in beauty shine,
And you have countless hoards of wea'tb;
What though the world—all, all was thine,
If you but want the blessing, Health.
Dr. DE ROOS' PILULE VITAE, or VEGETABLE LIFE
PILLS. A universal Restorative for both Sexes and all Ages,
concocted solely from the VEGETABLE kingdom; they may
be administered to the youngest Child, or to the most delicate
Invalid, by merely.regulating the dose according to the age
and strength of the person. They remove all Disorders and
Pains in the Stomach and Bowels, as Costiveness, Spasms,
Loss of Appetite, Sick Headache, Fulness after Meals, Indi-
gestion, Liver Complaints, Inactivity of the Bowels, Listless-
ness, Heat, Pain, and Jaundiced Appearance; and while they
act thus salutarily, they must of necessity increase the
strength of the Patient. Headache, Giddingss, Singing in the
Ears, Fluttering of the Sight, and other Heayy Drowsy Sensa-
tions,—the forerunners of many fatal diseases,—as Apoplexy,
Paralytic Strokes, Epilepsy, &c., are effectually warded off by
a few doses of these Pills. They also produce sound refresh-
ing Seep, a keen Appetite, and possess extraordinary efficacy
in invigorating the system, and imparting a pleasing serenity
of mind. They are unequalled as a Family Medicine; in few
instances, . where occasionally employed in Families and
Schools, will other assistance be needed.
For Females they are truly excellent, removing Headaches,
Depression of Spirits, Dizziness of Sight, Nervousness, Dim-
ples, Sallowness, and giving a healthy juvenile bloom to the
Complexion. Ladies, however delicate, wil; find them parti-
cularly beneficial both before and I after confinement. For
Elderly People they are the most comfortable Medicine that
can be taken.
_ .

Mr._ Smith, St. Ives: "Since taking your Pills I have not
once required the services of a medical man, and feel satisfied
this would be the case generally, if people were not so much
governed by prejudice."—T. Webster, Esq., Sleaford, near
Melton Mowbray : " Having read your advertisement, I felt
assured your Pills would be of use to some of my poorer
neighbours. I have had 12 boxes, and they have derived
great benefit from taking them. I shall continue to recom-
mend your valuable Pills to all my friends."— Mr. Edwin
Highley, 4, Mount-street, Halifax : " I find your Pilulte Vitae
a very pleasant medicine in removing headache."—Maent-
wrog, an-y-Bvvlch, North Wales: "Mr. Warner's compli-
ments to Dr. De Roos, and he finds no medicine do him so,
much good as his Pilulx Vitae."
. _

Persons going Abroad, Captains, and others, cannot store
more important articles of health than the above. which, by
regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquillizing the
Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent
abroad ; as also Sea Sickness and other complaints incidental
to long voyages and irregular living. No Emigrant's Chest
can be properly furnished without them, for when far removed
from medical aid, they will find in these Pills a never-failing
restorative.

IMPORTANT.—Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for
Dr. DE ROOS' Pills, have attempted to foist upon the Pur-
chaser other Medicines, or trash of their own compounding,
from which they obtain a larger *rofit. The GENUINE have
the words " WALTER DE ROOS, LONDON," In white let-
ters on the red ground printed in the stamp. affixed to each
Box, by special direction of Her Majesty's Honourable Com-
missioners, to protect the Public from Fraud, and to imitate
which is Felony.
May be obtained through all Medicine Vendors, at Is. lid.,
2s. 9d., 45. 6d., Its., and 338. per Box, with Directions for
Use, &c., or by enclosing Post-office Order or Stamps to Dr.
DE ROOS, 35, Ely-place, Holborn-hill, London, they will be
sent per return.
