LICENSED MANUFACTURERS.
The peculiarity of this Machine is in its cutting for Sheep,
Cattle, Lambs, or pulping or abreding for Pi. s' food. The
cylinder is constructed in such a manner that, by the mere
adjusting of simple set screws, the cut can be regulated to
any required thickness, and also, by reverting the action,
may cut as thin as required for Sheep, or as thick as required
for Cattle, and vice versa; is perfectly strong, not liable to
derangement, and, by a supply of an extra pair of knives, is
equal to two double-acting machines. It has taken several
prizes at the York, Manchester, Liverpool, Warrington, and
other Agricultural Meetings.—May be seen at the s 1 orks.

GREAT FIRE AT THE GIiTTA
PERCHA COMPANY'S WORKS, AND DEFEATED

BURGLARIES.

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. Gotta Percha,
Oil, Naptha. reducing the buildings to a pile of gutted red-hot
walla. The Safe has been most severely tried, as the letter
testifies, and brought its contents out of the Furnace without
a singe upon them.
"Gutta Percha Company's Works.
" City-road, London, Bth June, 1853.
" Sias,—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 any way yon may wish.
" We are, Sirs, your obedient servants,
"THE GUTTA PERCHA COMPANY.
" HENRY FORD BARCLAY.
"To Messrs. Thomas Milner and Son,
47A, Moorgate-street, City, London."
* Including .4'5,000 worth of Cash and Bills.

"Scotland-road !dint!, Livervol. Bth 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 ; 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.
" I am, Gentlemen, yours respectfully,
"THOMAS LEICESTER.
"Messrs. Thomas Milner lind Son."

SPECIAL APPEAL FOR FUNDS FOR THE ENLARGE-
MENT OF THE SOCIETY'S HOUSE,•PERCY,PLACE,

DUBLIN.
Much success having attended the system for many years
past in operation at the Society's House (which is used as a
Training School for the Elder Orphans, and an Apprentice
DepOt.), the Committee (as alluded to in the Reports for the
years 1851 and 1852) determined upon enlarging the House,
so as to afford accommodation for a considerable increase in
the number of Orphans.
To carry this into effect a new Wing is in course of erec-
tion, with other improvements ; and it is the wish of the
Committee, ant of several kind friends of the institution, that
the expense shall -not fall in any great degree on the regular
income of the Society (required for the support of Four Hun-
dred Orphan:), NU that a separate fund be raised to defray
the cost—about £BOO. The public
