TN placing this address before the Public, I beg
respectfully to call attention to the established rule of my
commercial transactions, namely:
Firstly—lnvariably to Purchase for READY MONEY, at the

best and cheat

:§eliingOniirnilar terms of PROMPT PAYMEN

for all Goods, on or Del Ore aeuvery.
Thirdly—Charging the LEAST PROFIT upon the Goods, and
Marking them in Plain English.
Fourthly—Giving every advantage for MONEY that any rea-
sonable man can look for.

..
It is a recognised principle of Trade that the fewer bands
through which any article is made to pass so much the better
it is for the consumer, because the article can be brought into
general use with the least burden of Profits.
ECONOMY AND CONVENIENCE

should be combined ; under these circumstances, and at
the request of numerous Purchasers who have frequently
BOUGHT AND APPRECIATED MY MATERIALS, but
have found great difficulty in getting them made to their satis-
faction, I am induced to add the TAIL" 0, whereby the
difficulty will be removed, and a very c,,nstclerable Saving' rea-
lized by GENTLEMEN PURCHASING their OWN CLOTH.
HAVING JUST ENGAGED A FIRST-RATE CUTTER TO
SUPERINTEND THE TAILORING DEPARTMENT, should
any Article not Fit satisfactorily when Finished, it shall be Re-
placed to the entire satisfaction of the-Customer, or the Ho-
ne), Paid will be Returned.

While J. RICHMOND is equally anxious TO SUPPLY THE
MATERIALS ONLY. proper Lengths for any Garment being
easily ascertained AT HIS ESTABLISHMENT, he cannot
leave unnoticed the favourable opportunity thus offered of ob-
taining either CLOTH or the Mate: ial made up into Garments
of unsurpassed excellence and cheapness, the advantages of
which must be obvious, and appreciated by all.
J. R. earnestly recommends every Gentleman to purchase
osra Cloth, and respectfully solicits a trial of this system,
feeling assured it will secure to him their continued and con-
stant support.

IMPROVED FOR THE GOVERNMENT
REGISTRY, 1849.

MILNER'S PATENT STRONG WROUGHT
IRON " HOLDFAST" GOVERNMENT BOOK and
CASH SAFES and CLOSETS.—Fire-resistiag by internal non-
conducting and evaporating chambers. The strongest Safes in
the world, with impregnable locks and fastenings. Milner's
Patent Fire-resisting Book Safes, Deed and Plate Chests and
Boxes, of all sizes, 50 per cent, cheaper than the above. In the
large towns of the manufacturing and commercial districts
Milner's Safes, of the different thicknesses, have been tested in
red heat, from one to twenty-four hours, by the authorities and
other scientific and practical residents ; and in destructive ac-
cidental fires, in which the books, cash, deeds, &c., in all the
different Safes in use—strong. iron ones with drawers, brick
and stone closets, with double .on doors, fire proof (?) wrought
iron chambered Safes, &c. &c.—have been burnt to ashes,
Milner's Safes standing beside them in the fire, externally as
red-hot, have done their duty, and brought out the books and
valuables within them uninjured. (See pamphlets of certifi-
cates, &c., to be had as at foot.) 20,000 of Milner's Safes keep
the books, &c., of the above practical men, who know what fire,
iron, and books, are, as well as the conservative powers of
steam, and the difference betwixt burning and boiling com-
bustible materials.
The Patentees caution the Public, that none are genuine but
such as bear the patent plates ; also against delusive tests of
non-conductors in a moist state, or into which means of pro-
ducing moisture, when heated, have been surreptitiously intro-
duced. Without the powerful aid of steam, neutralising 1000
degrees of heat, no presumed bad conductor of heat, in a tho-
roughly dry state, (which it will soon become in a dry office,)
will preserve the contents of a safe unburnt in a strong fire.
CAUTION TO MAKERS AND SELLERS OF SAFES.—
Any means of producing moisture or evaporation within or
round a safe, as securing from,fire, infringes these patents, and
will be prosecuted.
