GREAT FIRE I N MANCHESTER.
MESSRS. THOMAS MILNER AND SON.
G E NTLEMEN, —ln the large fire on Wednesday, March Ist,
which destroyed all the p.roperty in my warehouse, I am happy
to say that your Fire-resisting Safe preserved my books and
documents uninjured, although completely surrounded by the
flames. JOSEPH GILL.
21, Bread-street, Manchester, 3rd March, 1854.

MESSRS. THOS. MILNER AND SON.
DEAR SIRS, —in answer to your inquiry, the Fire-resisting
Safe made by you was a very small one ; though exposed to a
tremendous fire, and much injured by large masses of mate-
rials falling upon it, and remaining under the burning mass
several days (from March Ist to March 6th), yet we are glad
to say the most valuable part of its contents were so little
injured that the writing was easily transcribed.—We are,
dear sir, yours respectfully, RYLANDS and SONS.
Manchester, 24th March, 1854.

EXTENSIVE FIRE IN GLASGOW.
MESSRS. DAVID BOYD AND CO.
GENTLEMEN,—At the serious fire in Union-street, yester-
day, by which my counting-house was destroyed, I owed the
preservation of my books to the Milners' Sate in which they
were kept. The contents of a wall safe were totally destroyed
at the same time. You will please send me immediately an-
other " Milner" of the same size as the one I had, being
thoroughly satisfied of their safety, after the test 1 have just
seen.-1 am, gentlemen, your obedient servant,
(Signed) JOHN DODDS.

DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO BLOW UP MILNERS'
HOLDFAST SAFE WITU GUNPOWDER.
MESSRS. THOMAS MILNER AND SON.
DEAR Sias,—We beg to acquaint you that last night our
warehouse was entered by burglars, who attempted to blow
open with gunpowder your strong Holdfast Safe, in which we
keep our books and cash (then amounting to £475), and, we
are happy to add, without success.—We are, dear sirs, your
most obedient servants,
(Signed) FORREST and BROMLEY.

GREAT FIRE IN BELFAST.
MESSRS. MUSORAVES BROTHERS.
GENTLEMEN,—At your request I beg to state, for the in-
formation of the public, that the only property saved from the
late fire in the premises of Thomas S. Major and Co., was that
contained in one of Milners' Patent Safes. From the intense
mature of the fire, and the length of time the Safe was exposed
to the action of the flames, I was fully convinced of the de-
struction of the books and papers it contained ; and feel very
great pleasure in testifying to this extraordinary instance of
their preservation. I may add, that the Safe was placed on
the third story, without any protection, where it remained till
the floor was burned around it, when it fell to the room he •
neath, the floor of *which was likewise destroyed by the fire.—
Yours truly, JAMES S. HUNTER, Executor of the late
Thomas T. Major, of •the firm of T. Major and Co.

Kidd' s Own Journal. London : Groombridge.
Another number of this entertaining magazine
by no means diminishes the interest in the con-
; tents, which are numerous and varied, and chiefly
devoted to developing the beauties of nature, which
are ever new, and more so in this delightful season
of spring. There is something refreshing in such
titles as " The Bright Side of Nature," " Season-
able Enjoyments," " Our Wild Flowers," " Notes
on the Hyacinth and Hawthorn," "Birds," &c.,while
the prose is interspersed with numerous short pieces
of poetry of more than ordinary merit. Indeed,
such a repertory of natural history, natural philo-
sophy, popular science, and things in general, must
find many admirers, both in town and country.

Decimal Coinage. London : Ridgway.

A pamphlet, by "one of the million," professing
to describe what decimal coinage ought, and what
it ought not to be. It would be waste of time to
discuss the many absurd arguments brought for-
ward to bolster up an impracticable theory, the
only possible advantage of which is to save mer-
chants' clerks a few minutes time in calculation.
The author recommends the substitution of a new
tenpenny piece for our long-established pound as
the unit, and the conversion of the shilling into
one and twopence. He quotes the celebrated ac-
tuary, De Morgan, who says :—" The pound is
more than a mere matter of arithmetic. There is
a great deal of political and moral association con-
nected with it. Under the phrases ' £5OO a year'
or £l,OOO a year,' we think of states of society.
To make a violent alteration would be such a nui-
sance and mischief as should only be encountered
for some great benefit ; and I see no benefit at all
in the change." Upon this the pamphleteer re-
marks :—" If this kind of sentimentality is to pre-
vail over common sense and sound argument, we
had better not have a decimal coinage at all."
This is the correct conclusion, and will, no doubt,
be the result of all the spasmodic labours of the
advocates of this abstract theory.

The People's Magazine. Nos. VI. and VII., for
March and April. London : Kent and Co.

From its cheapness and general excellence, this
is a periodical admirably adapted for dissemination
among the working classes. It is devoted to the
diffusion of sound religious and political principles,
and the intention is judiciously carried out.

BRETHAM'S CAPILLARY FLUID. The truly wonderful
efficacy of this unique preparation is the theme of admiration
wherever introduced. It effectually prevents the hair falling
off or turning grey, promotes its growth on places that have
been bald for years, strengthens weak and fine hair, and gra-
dually restores its natural colour, without *the use of dye. It
cleanses the bead from scurf, and imparts a beautiful trans-
parent, glossy appearance, and keeps it in any desired form.
In inducing the growth of whiskers, eyebrows, mustachios,
its effect is surprii.ng.—Bottles 2s. 6d., double size 4s. 6d.,

discovery causes the greatest delight and astonishment wher-
ever it is introduced. Its effect, to use the words of numerous
correspondents, is truly miraculous; the most inveterate
Corns, Bunions; and those unsightly and painful enlargements
of the GREAT TOE JOINTS, which disfigure the beautiful sym-
metrysf the foot, have been immediately relieved from all
pain Ali uneasiness, and in a short time entirely dispersed,
after twenty years' suffering. Unexceptionable references

For Removing Superfluous Hair, BEETHAM'S VEGETA-
BLE EXTRACT is the only article ever discovered which
does not cause pain or injury to the Skin
. Numerous worth-
less articles areintroduced, containing the most deadly poi-
sons, and unfit to be applied to the human body; many of them
remove the skin, and produce dangerous wounds. The effect
of this Extract is unerring, and gives the greatest satisfaction.

BOMBARDMENT OF ODESSA.

The Vienna paper Presse contains details• of the bom-
bardment of Odessa. The loss of the Russians, who
displayed the greatest intrepidity, is stated: at 200 men ;
more than 300 were• dangerously, and more than twice
that number less seriously, wounded. Six magazines
were burnt. The city suffered comparatively little, though
a few of the principal buildings, and among the rest the
Woronzoff Palace, was a prey to the flames.
The terrific cannonade has broken all the windows, and
many chimneys have fallen, and the steeples of many
churches are injured.
Another account says the Russians gave as a reason for
firing upon the boat of the Furious, that she was taking
soundings.

No authentic official report of all the proceedings is yet
published.

It is stated that the French envoy at Constantinople
will be replaced, and that he will receive the command of
the army in the East.
Private letters from Constantinople again speak of the
Turkish treasury, and the difficulty, not to say the im-
possibility, of replenishing it.
