"SIR,—In •Oe complete burning of the whole of our pre-
mises on Moniai :y lett, the only things saved out of the stock
and property were our Books, which we feel that we owe en-
tirely to MILNERS' FIRE-RESISTING SAFE, in which we kept
them. The Safe bears evidence of the intense fire it had re-
sisted, and it was with as much surprise as gratitude that, on
breaking it open after the fire, we found instead of ashes as we
expected,*our Books perfect as we left them. We think it due
to this invaluable invention, and to the public, to make this de-
claration through your columns

the Books, those being preserved in one of MI LNikas' PATENT

the destruction of a number of plans and specifications of build-

almost impossible to estimate. These were consumed in a

20, Jennyn-itreet, Hay-

Sir,--About four years since I caught a severe cold which ter
urinated in a violent Cough with Spitting of Blood; I tried
every remedy which my friends recommended, without receiv-
ing any benefit ; last winter the Cough so much increased in
violence, and the spitting of blood became so frequent, and at-
tended with all the symptoms of a rapid consumption ; I con-
tinued in this dreadful state notwithstanding I had the advice
of some of the most eminent physicians, and gave up all hope
of recovering. Seeing in the newspapers some extraordinary
cures which your Asmathic Balsam had performed, as a last
resource I was induced to try its efficacy ; to my great astonish-
ment and delight, in less than a week, I perceived a wonderful
benefit, and by the time I had taken two of the 2s. 3d. bottles,
with gratitude jacknoNyledge, I was perfectly well.
