Mr. WOODS replied in behalf of the Society named.
The invention was one of the most valuable that had ever
been brought before the Society, and he had introduced it
to their not!ce in the early part of 1843. They had
brought Messrs. Milner's safes to the severest tests along
with those of others, and the former had distanced all
competitors. He had made a record of its success, and
considered it an honour to the Society to bring it forward.
It was, in truth, one of the greatest boons that had ever
been gained by the country. The contents of all the
other boxes were reduced to tinder! those in Milner's
were taken out, after the same ordeal, as fresh as when
they were put in. 7 (Great cheering.)

was present at the several experiments near St. Jude's
Church. At first he bad no faith in Milner's tin bosse,
and was perfectly astonished at the result. .On this point
he expatiated with great felicity and humour. acknow-
ledging his erroneous first impressions, and. his subsequent
high and unqualified opinion of the excellence of thein-
vendor,. We regret that our limited :space prevents us
from attempting more than a mere outline of the address
of this gentleman, Mr. Woods, and others. After ex-
pressing, in eloquent terms, his admiration of the com-
mingling of the employers and the empluyed, as witnessed

on the occasion, he.con- eluded by toasting " The Progress
rapid and triumphant of Milner's Fire-proof Safes.'

._.in the tables were also shown two pieces of plate, a
anuff-boX, and a cigar-case; the former presented to Mr.
Milner; sen., and the latter to his son, by their workmen,
as a trateful acknowledgment to them for their kindness
and consideration in releasing them from work so early as
three o'clock every Saturday afternoon. Both bore suit-
able inscriptions to that effect.
Mr. OWEN (the foreman), on his health being drunk,
with a high compliment, said that nothing was due to him
of encomium. His object had been, and ever should be.
to give satisfaction to masters and to men, without in-
fringing on the rights of either. (Cheers.)
Mr. AENITT, (Gas Company) on his health being
drunk, spoke in a feeling and impressive manner, on the
occasion that had called them together.
A number of other toasts, sentiments, songs, &c., fol-
lowed. " The Press " was responded to by Mr. J. S. Wal-
ker, (in behalf of the whole "gang,") who expressed a hope
that the example of friendly feeling exhibited that night
between masters and men would elsewhere be followed.
The whole meeting was one of the most delightful we
have had to record, and the company separated about mid-
night, highly gratified by the entertainment of the night.
