PARKER'S PATENT FOR BANDING PULLEYS.
THE Proprietors of Foundries, Cotton Factories,
Saw Mills, Corn and Rice Mills, Building and Joiners'
Establishments, and all others requiring rotary motion, are
respectfully invited to examine PARKER'S PRINCIPLE of
BANDING PULLEYS, which combines a large saving of
motive power, with an increased velocity of motion never before
obtained in limited compass, and may be applied as well to the
the first motion from the engine as to the collateral demands
upon the power, which is largely saved by avoiding the Com-
plicated Bands, Pulleys, and Co; Wheels.
The principle is applied with matchless success to Fans,
Blowers, Lathes, Winnowing and Thrashing Corn, Chopping
Hay, Grinding Malt, Circular Saws, of any required dimen-
sions ; but the most remarkable application of this invention
is to the Portable Circular Saw, which is made to perform a
variety of duties that render it the most desirable tool, and
which no mechanic will be able to dispense with.
For the right to use this patented invention, and for the pur-
chase of the royalties of any Town, County, District, or for any
individual establishment, and for directions in its application,
Apply to WILLIAM ROWETT, Commercial-buildings,
Water-street, who is the sole Agent for Liverpool.
NB--It has been ascertained that one man working the
Portable Saw can do the work :of a steam-engine of one-horse
power for a limited period.

212 Q MILNER'S PATENT FIRE-RESISTING
SAFES.
MILNER v. HARRISON.

SECOND TRIAL AT LAW FOR PIRACY OF MILNER'S PATENT.
ITIHE Defendant, JORN GERMAN HARRISON, having
j_ 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,Atithe 25th June last, before Lord
ivesei
j 4
Campbell and a spec 4 i bury. The following extracts from the
learned Judge's ad ss to the jury in summing up will show
distinctly the : tions submitted to the jury :
Lord Camp ell.—" 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 lie 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 called 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 hands, 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-
tion 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. Harnson.
"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
Miller's patent, but upon that you will form your own juds-
ment. Then if it really has the same effect, and operates in
the same manner, and upon the same principle, it will he 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': Patent—in other words that the
waler 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 Alilner'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 .t'ls '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

PATENT OXIDE OF ZINC AND MINERAL
COMBINATION PAINTS, •
Manufactured and Sold by
IV. LAWFORD AND CO,
Oil Boilers and Refiners, Varnish and Colour Manufacturers.
N 0.49, NORFOLK-STREET, LIVERPOOL.
THESE Paints are superior in all respects to those
prepared from lead _ _

T. On account of their perfectly harmless qualities, being in
no way injurious to health, either 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 durability 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 Paints, 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 Abe best Lead Paint, with an equal
amount of body; the syiifig of cost being in the same propor-
tion. _ _ _

The Patent Zine*Paints are particularly adapted for Painting
both iron andlimber Ships, 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.
Testimonials may be seen, and all particulars had, on appli.
cation to the Manufacturers, as above.

LOSS OF TEETH. A New and Curious Invention connected
with Dental Surgery has been introduced by Mr. Howard; it
is the introdtiction of an ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIPTION
of ARTIFICIAL TEETH; fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfectly resemble natural teeth as not to
be distingui hed from the originals by the closest observer.
They will n er change colour or decay, and will be found very
superior to y teeth ever before used. This method does not
require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and
will support and preserve the teeth that are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. The invention
is of importance to many persons, and those who are interested
in it, should avail themselves of this New discovery.
MR. HOWARD SURGEON DENTIST,
I
17, GEORGE-STREET lANOVER-SQUARE, LONDON.

At home-from eleven till four.
This new method of fixing Artificial Teeth, has obtained the
approbation and recommendation of the following eminent
Physicians and Surgeons :—Sir James. Clark, Bart., Physician
to Her Majesty; Dr. Locock, Physician Accoucheur to Her
Majesty; Sir B. C. Brodie, Bart., Sergeant Surgeon to Her
Majesty; Sir D. Davies, Physician to Her Majesty the Queen
Dowager; Dr. Merriman, Physician to Her R. IL the Duchess
of Kent; and numerous other members of the Medical Pro-
fession.

Those interested in the subject will find this statement of
the superiority of these teeth over all others to be entirelyand-
&crupulously correct.
