GREAT FIRE

AT THE ,
GUTTA PERCHA COMPANY'S WORKS,
AND DEFEATED BURGLARIES.

THOMAS MILNER and SON have sincere plea-
sure in communicating to their Friends and the Public
the following new endorsements to the claims of their HOLD-
FAST 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, Gutta
Percha, Oil, Naptha, reducing the buildings to a pile of gutted
red-hot walls. 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 Percba Company's Works,
" City-road, London, Bth June, 1833.
"Sias,—We consider it only our duty to inform you of the
entire preservationof 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 ut liberty to use
this letter in any iay you may wish.

"ye are,-Sirs, your obedient servants,
"THE GUTTA" PERCHA COMPANY.
" HENRY FORD BARCLAY
"To Messrs. Thomas Milner and Son,
47A, Moorgate-street, City, London."
* Including 85,000 worth of Cash and Bills.

"Scotland-road Mills, Liverpaol, 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 barglars 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 and Son."

fl ARSON'S ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION
N.Lj PAINT, specially patronised by the British, French, Rus-
sian, and Sicilian Governments, the Hon. East India Company,
the New River Comps,ny, tha. principal Dnek enmpanies, and
other Public Bodies.

The ANTI-CORROSIVE PAINT has been used by the Hon.
Board of Ordnance for upwards of half a century, who have
proved it to prevent rust or corrosion on Iron longer and bet-
ter than the very best White Lead, or any other description of
Paint ; and in consequence of its possessing this invaluable
quality, all the Iron Guns and Gun Carriages, both for land
and sea service, have been painted with it for the above period.
It has always been used in great quantities by other public
bodies, and by numbers of Gentlemen of the first distinction,
to preserve Wooden Houses, Farm land other Outbuildings,
Conservatories, Park Paling, Gates, Iron,Railing, Iron Hurdles,
Copper, Zinc, Lead, old Compo, &c., Fronts and Tiles to re-
present Slating. It will be found a very superior preservative
of Iron Steam Boats, Iron Bridges, Piers, or any other exten-
sive Iron Works.

This Paint is admirably adapted for preventing the decay of
old stone or brick Mansions, Churches, or other Public Edi-
fices requiring an effectual defence against the elements. It is
particularly recommended to West India and other Colonial
Proprietors, Emigrants, and all persons connected with the
Colonies, who will find it to stand all climates better than any
other Paint. The superiority of the Anti-Corrosion to any
other Paint may be easily inferred from the simple fact that its
use has always been most strenuously opposed by Colour Ma-
nufacturers, and others interested in the sale of Common Paint.
Noblemen and Landed Proprietors, anxious to have their
Outbuildings, &c. properly preserved, will effect a very consi-
derable saving by desiring their Stewards to order the Anti-
Corrosion Paint, as any labourer can lay it on, thereby saving
the enormous charges generally made by painters.
The Anti-Corrosion is a powder, and it will keep any length
of time. Colors /White stone, light stone, drab, or Portland
stone, Bath stonf, light and dark yellow stone, light and dark
oak, brown, light and nark lead, light and dark chocolate,
bright and diti-k red, copper, and black, 345. per cwt.; invisible

carts and wagons), 60s. per cwt. ; in casks 28Ibs.' 561bs.
'nibs. each, and upwards.—Large tied Brushes, 3s. 6d.; small
tied Ditto, 2s. 6d. ; and Sash Tools, is. Gd. each.
OIL and TURPENTINE, at PER GALLON.
One cwt. Casks, Is. 6d. ; half and quarter cwt. Ditto, Is.
each. Same allowed for returned empty Oil Packages, as
charged, viz., Is. per gallon.
The expense of the Colours, at 345. per cwt., when the weight
of the Oil is added, is about 4d. per lb; and those at GUs.,
about 6d. per lb.
The Original Anti-Corrosion Paint is only to be obtained of
WALTER CARSON AND SOW,

(Successors to the Inventors,) No. 9, GREAT WINCHESTER-
STREET, OLD BROAD-STREET, NEAR THE ROYAL
EXCHANGE, LONDON, who will show between 500 and 600
most flattering Testimonials received from the Nobility, Gen-
try, and other Influential Persons, who have used the Anti-
Corrosion for many years. _

No Agents.—All'oiders are particularly requested to be sent

DR. TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN FAMILY ME-
DICINES.—These medicines have long been in use, and
have innumerable testimonials in their favour. They are made
up wholly of Vegetable Substances, containing no mineral
of any kind, and are perfectly safe and certain in their action
on all persons, young or old.
DR. TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN SARSAPARILLA is the
great purifier of the blood. and the most efficient alterative
probably that is known. It eradicates all acrid humours, dis-
eased particles, and morbid substances from the Blood, Flesh,
and Bones—its assimilation to the gastric juice of the stomach
causes it to pass rapidly into and unite with the Vital Current,
thus creating NEW, Pinta, and RICH BLOOD. Hence its won.
derful efficacy in Scrofula, Mercurial Taint, Scald Head, Erysi-
pelas, Rheumatism, Gout, Cutaneous Eruptions, Chronic, Sore
Eves, and all other maladies arising from a bad state of the
blood—hence, too, its value as a Tonic, in cases of languor,
great debility, and lassitude, nervous prostration, tveakness,
and tremulousness from any cause. It is inestimable in Female
Complaints, in disease of the Lungs, Liver, Stomach, Mesen-
tery, Kidneys, &c. Ladies of delicate constitutions, suffering
from any disorganization, with pale, emaciated countenances,
feeble and weak, nervous And irritable, would do well to use the
Sarsaparilla. This invaluable medicine produces the most sa-
lutary influence upon )he nervous system, the circulation, the
organs of nutrition and secretion, and being taken into the sys-
tem by absorption and digestion, is conveyed into every minute
part of the hotly by the circulating current, thus diffused every-
where—made omnipresent—exercising a healthful efficacy on
every nerve and blood vessel—on the brain. the heart, lungs,
stomach, liver, kidneys, and spleen, the skin, membranes.
glands, and lymphatics—the bones, tendons, and muscles—the
blood, bile, gastric juice, lymph, chyle, &c., eradicating every
morbid agent, every poison—invigorating all weak organs, en-
riching impoverished fluids, and effecting an entire renovation
of the whole system.—Half pints, 2s. 6d. ; Pints, 48. ; Small
Quarts, 4s. 6d. ; Large Quarts, 7s. 6d. ; Mammoth Bottles
holding nearly two large quarts, 11s.
DR. TOWNSEND'S INFANT'S CARMINATIVE.—This
preparation is also special, and is confined to Infants and
Children. The great and fearful mortality among children,
induced Dr. Townsend to prepare a medicine suitable to their
tender and delicate organization, and, if possible, to save them
from the numerous complaints which destroy one-half the
human family before reaching the age of five years ! In this
effort Dr. Townsend believes he has been entirely successful in
the preparation of the "Infant's Carminative," which preserves
and protects the health of a child from one day old to the age
of five years. Through all the derangements indicated by
gripings, vomitings, wind, acidity, &c , during the period of
" teething," and especially when passing the second, third, and
fourth years, in which Diarrhea, Dysentery, Cholera Infantum,
Bloody Flux, Prolapsus Ani, Fits, Spasms, Cramps, Rickets,
Distortion of the Spine, Convulsions, Scarlet Fever, Canker,
Sore Throat, Croups, Coughs, Colds, Worms, Scald Head, Ery-
sipelas, Ringworm, Eruptions, Marasmus, or wasting away.

and a general corruption of the Blood assail and cut short so
many lives, this medicine steps in and restores them in safety
and health to their parents and friends. It is a safe and posi-
tive remedy for all diseases of children, and will also build up
strong and vigorous constitutions, establish and strengthen all
their tender organs, and maintain a healthy and harmonious
working of all the delicate functions of the body. Bottles, Is. Lid.
