PATENT OXIDE OF ZINC AND MINERAL
COMBINATION PAINTS,
Manufactured and Sold by

Oil Boilers and Refiners, 'Varnish and Colour Manufactiirers,
No. 49, NORFOLK-STREET, LIVERPOOL.
THESE Paints are superior in all respects to those
prepared from lead :-
1. On account of their perfectly harmless qualities, being in
no way injurious to health, oither in case of manufacture or
use.
2. On account of their superiority in resisting the influences
of the atmosphere.
3. On account of their great du:ability and permanence of
colour; one painting of zinc lasting double the time of an
ordinary lead painting.
4. On account of their cheapness and covering power;—as
compared with the best Lead taints, the proportion are as 50
to 100,—that is to say, 50 lbs. of the Zinc Paint will cover as
much surface as 100 lbs. of the best Lead Paint, with an equal
amount of body; the saving of cost being in the same propor-
tion.
The Patent Zinc Paints are particularly adapted for painting
both iron and timber Mips, and all vessels exposed to the
action of sea-water. They are also invaluable for house paint-
ing, especially for inside work, as, in addition to their hardi-
ness and susceptibility of taking a high polish, they cause no
ill effect or dangerous complaint either to the workmen em-
ployed, or to those persons inhabiting apartments newly
painted.

PATRONISED BY THE FACULTY.
WOOLLEY'S PECTORAL CANDY.

THE rapidly-increasing sale of this invaluable
MEDICINE is a convincing proof of its efficacy. The
proprietor can confidently recommend it in all cases of Coughs,
Sore Throats, Hoarseness, Loss of Voice, and Weakness of the
Chest and Lungs, as well as for the relief and ultimate cure of
long-standing Asthmatic Affections, which have offered resist-
ance to the most approved remedies. Being entirely free from
all noxious ingredients, and beneficial to the system generall,-.<
it may be taken by persons of all ages with perfect safety ; for
whilst powerful to heal and give relief to the chest and throat,
and to subdue and eradicate cough, its tendency is to cool and
purify the blood.
The Proprietor has pleasure in submitting the following most
satisfactory testimonials selected from a great many ?
" Chatham, April 18th, 1850.
" Dear Sir,—Mrs. Chiseman, of Garden-street, Brompton,
has been cured of a cough of four years' standing, by taking
one box of your Pectoral Candy, and is desirous of expressing
ber gratitude, in order that others similarly afflicted may ob-
tain the same benefit. Please send me three dozen of the
large boxes for her brother to take out to the Mauritius with
him next week. I can also add my testimony that, from the
many cases I have seen of its decided efficacy, I am persuaded
it stands unrivalled as a general cough medicine.—Yours truly,

my friends who were similarly afflicted, who have all received

212 Q MILNER'S PATENT FIRE-RESISTING

SAFES.
11IILNER v. HARRISON.
SECOND TRIAL AT LAW FOR PIRACY OF NIILNER9S PATENT,

THE Defendant, JOHN GERMAN HARRISON, having
persevered in the sale of Safes constructed on the princi-
ple of Milner 's Patent, in defiance of the verdict found against
him in June, 1851, in the Court of Queen's Bench, and an In-
junction afterwards awarded against him by the Court of
Chancery (he pretending. that the Safes sold by him since the
first trial were not infringements, but made under a patent
granted to Messrs. Sann), a second action was brought on the
suggestion of Vice-Chancellor Sir George Turner, to try
whether such safes were or were not infringements on Milner's
Patent.
This action was tried on the 25th June last, before Lord
Campbell and a special jury. The following extracts from the
learned Judge's address to the jury in summing up will show
distinctly the questions submitted to the jury :
Lord Campbell.—" I own it seems to me that Mr. Harrison
does not appear before you in very advantageous colours from
these proceedings. He had been in the service of Messrs.
Milner, and while in their service he takes another shop, and
there he begins and sells fire-proof boxes which were agreed by
a jury sitting where you now are to be substantially the same
as those of Milner, the Patentee, and that record has been
given in evidence: you are not bound by it, but you may at-
tend to it; and I must own that I do not see any reason to
believe that the jury who sat on the trial of that cause were in
any respect mistaken in point of fact, and I do not discover
that there is any real difference between this case and that ;
you will attend to all the evidence, and form your own conclu-
sion from the evidence that has been given.
" You are first caned upon to say whether this invention of
Messrs. Milner is new. As to wheter it is useful, it seems to
me to be allowed on all bands, it seems a most marvellous pre-
servative against fire ; for the water remains permanently
held in artificial vessels or in natural vessels, and the very
calamity brings the cure, for the heat causes the water to ex-
pand, and then it is turned into steam, and the steam moistens
the substance which is to be preserved, and so it is an effectual
guard against fire.
" If you think this was new, then the only remaining ques-
tisii is with regard to the infringement.
" Now the infringement seems to rest upon substantially the
same evidence as the infringement on the former trial, when
the action was brought against Mr. Harrison.
" Now you find with respect to Tann's Patent, whatever
Tann's invention might have been, that this patent which he
manufactures, and which the defendant Harrison sells, and of
which he calls himself the sole proprietor,' operates in the
same way. It seems to me to act precisely the same way as in
Mil/lees patent, but upon that you will form your own judg-
ment. Then if it really has the same effect. and operates in
the same manner, and upon the same principle, it will be for
you to say whether you have any doubt it is an infraction of
Milner's Patent. Those are the two questions for you to con-
sider." _ . -

-----
The Jury found a verdict for the Plaintiff, on both the
issues, thus establishing that the so-called Tann's Patent Safes
are a mere piracy of Milner's invention. After the trial last
year, it was pretended that the Safes then condemned were not
made according to Tann's Patent—in other words that the
wales in them had not been boiled and set to cool before being
used. The three Safes upon which this second action was
brought were sworn to by Messrs. Tann as being made accord-
ing to their Patent.
The Public of Liverpool will remember the species of adver-
tisements by which this wretched case has been upheld. THEY
have been as much imposed upon, with regard to the quality
and price of the safes sold by these parties, as the advertisers
have been wronged by their illegal use of Milner's (the only
effective) Fire-resisting principle. The experience of Mr.
Cafferata, as shown at this trial, (by a gentleman unknown to
us before,) is only that of all the buyers of these things. Mr.
C. was induced to give £l5 for a safe, 22 x 16 x 16, on the
assurance that it was " 'Thief-proof—three quarter inch thick
solid wrought iron," &c., &c. Looking at it a day or two
afterwards, at home, and on scraping the paint off it, he found
it a MERE SHELL—a perfect delusion ,• and those who have
intrusted their valuable property to such safeguards will do
well to take the same course.
For our own Safes, we have devoted our lives and our earn-
ings to the production of the best securities in the world against
Fire, Robbery, or Violence, which the public has given to us
the best means of making, and which we mean to sell at the
lowest remunerating prices. Before buying a Safe, if parties
will look into our works, and see the labour and attention
paid to the manufacture in all its details, they will be less likely
to be imposed upon by external appearances and fallacious
representations in the very important matter of the selection
of a Safe. " MILNER'S PHQNIX SAFE WORKS," (late VVind-
sor Foundry,) Falkner-street, are said to be the finest work-
shops in Europe, of their class, certainly THE MOST EXTEN-
SIVEBL AND COMPLETE SAFE MANUFACTORY IN THE oval) Bh-?_
