MESSRS. THOS. MILNER AND SON.
DEAR SIRS, —in answer to your inquiry, the Fire-resisting,
Safe ariade by you was a very mall one; though exposed to a
tremendous fire, and much injured by large masses of mate-
rials falling upon it, and remaining under the burning mass
several days (from March Ist to March 6th). yet we are glad
to say the most valuable part of its contents were so little
injured that the writing was easily transcribed.—We are,
dear sir, yours respectfully, RYLANDS and SONS.

EXTENSIVE FIRE IN GLASGOW.
MESSRS. DAVID BOYD AND CO.
GENTLEMEN At the serious fire in Union-street, yester-
day, by which my counting-house was destroyed, I owed the
preservation of my books to the Milners' See in which they
-were kept. The contents of a wall safe were totally destroyed
at the same time. You will please send me immediately an-
other " Milner" of the same size as the one I had, being
thorourlily satisfied of their safety, after the test I have jest
seen —1 am, gentlemen, your obedient servant.

GREAT FIRE IN BELFAST.

MESSRS. MUSARAVES BROTHERS.

GENTLEMEN,—At your request I beg to state, for the in-
formation of the public, that the only property saved from the
late fire in the premises of Thomas S. Major and Co., was that
contained in one of Milners' Patent Safes. From the intense
nature of the fire, and the length of time the Safe was exposed
to the action of the flames, I was fully convinced of the de-
struction of the books and papers it contained ; and feel very
great pleasure in testifying to this extraordinary instance of
their preservation: I may add, that the Safe was placed on
the third story, without any protection, where it remained till
the floor was burned around it, when it fell to the room be•
neath, the floor of which was likewise destroyed by the fire.—
Yours truly. JAMES S. HUNTER, Executor of the late
Thomas T. Major, of the firm of T. Major and Co.

F°R STOPPING DECAYED TEETH.—
Price 2s. Gd. Patronised by Her Majesty the Queen,
and His Royal Highness Prince Albert.
MR. HOWARD'S PATENT WHITE SUCCEDANEUM,
For filling Decayed Teeth, however large the cavity, even if
the Tooth is Broken down to the Gums. It is superior to
anything ever before used, as it is placed in the tooth in a soft
etate, without any pressure or pain, and in a short time be-
comes as hard as the enamel, and will remain firm in the
tooth for many years, rendering extraction unnecessary. It
arrests all further progress of decay, and renders them again
useful in mastication. All persons can use the Succedaneum
themselves with ease, as full directions are enclosed.

Prepared only by THOMAS HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 17,
George-street. Hanover-square, London, who will send the
Succedauenm free by Post to any part of the Kingdom, Price
2a. 6d. Sold by all respectable Medicine Vendors in the king-
dom. LOSS OF TEETH.
A new and very curious invention connected with Dental
Surgery has been introduced by Mr. HOWARD, it is the pro-
duction of an entirely new description of Artificial Teeth,
'xed by his New Patent System of Self-adhesion and Capillary
Attraction without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so per-
fectly resemble natural teeth, as not to be distinguished from
the originals by the closest observer. They will nevercitange
colour or decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method- does not require the extrac-
tion of any teeth or roots, or any painful operation whatever,
and from the nature of the materials used the most perfect fit
is obtained. The invention is of importance to many persons,
and those who are interested in it, should avail themselves of
this new method.

Mr. HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 17, George-street, Hanover_
mare, London. At home from 1 till 4.
_ _ . _

Mr. HOWARD'S new principle of fixing Artificial Teeth has
obtained the approbation and recommendation of the follow-
ing eminent Physicians and Surgeons:—Sir James Clark,
Bart., Physician to her Majesty; Dr. Locock, Physician Ac-
coucheur 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
Iter R.H. the Duchess of Kent; and numerous other mem-
bers of the medical profession.

HEALTH RESTORED! !—HOLLOWAY'S
PILLS.
AN ASTONISHING CURE. op CHRONIC RHEUMATISM,
AFTER BEING DISCHARGED FROM THE Hvarira V. INCURA-
MLE.—Copy of a letter from Mr. W. Moon, of the Square,
Winchester :—" To Professor Holloway.—Sir,—l be: to in-
form you that for years I was a sufferer from Chronic
Rheumatism, and was often laid up for weeks together by
its severe and painful attacks. I tried every thing that was
recommended, and was attended by one of the most eminent
Surgeons in this town, but obtained no relief whatever, and
fearing that my health would be entirely broken up, I was
induced to go into our County Hospital, where I bad the best
m‘dical treatment the institution afforded, all of which
proved of no avail, and I came out no better than I went in.
I was then advised to use your Pills, and by persevering with
them was perfectly cured, and enabled to resume my occupa.
Lion ; and although a considerable period has elapsed, I have
felt no return whatever of the complaint.—l am, Sir, &c.,

A PERMANENT CURE OF A DISEASED LIVER, OF MANY
YEARS' DURATION.—Copy of a letter from Mr. Gamis, che-
mist, Yeovil, to Professor Holloway:—" Dear Sir,—ln this
district your Pills command a more extensive sale than any
other proprietary medicine before the public. As a proof of
their efficacy in bilious and liver complaints, I may mention
the following case. A lady of this town, with wh,m 1 am
personally acquainted, for years was a severe sufferer from
disease of the liver and digestive organs. Her medical at-
endant assured her that he could do nothing to relieve her
sufferings, and it 1. as not likely she could survive many
months. This announcement naturally caused great alarm
amon; her friends and relations, and they induced her to
make a trial of your Pills, which so improved her general
health that she was induced to continue them until she re-
ceived a perfect cure. This is twelve months ago, and she
Ilan not experienced any symptoms of relapse, and often de-
-flares that your Pills have been the means of saving her life.

AN EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF DROPSY, AFTER SUFFER-
ING FOR EIGHTEEN MONTHS.—Copy of a letter from Mr. G.
Briggs, chemist, Goole, dated Feb. 15, 1853 :—" To Professor
Ilolloway.—Sir,—l have much pleasure in informing you of
n most surprising cure of dropsy, recently effected by your
valuable medicines. Capt. Jackson, of this place, was afflicted
with dropsy for upwards of 18 months, to such an extent that
it caused his body and limbs to be much swollen, and water
oozed as it were from his skin, so that a daily change of ap-
parel became necessary. Notwithstanding the various reme-
dies tried, and the different medical men consulted, all was
of no avail, until he commenced using your Pills, by which,
and a strict attention to the printed directions, he was effec-
tually cured, and his health perfectly re-established. If you
deem this worthy of publicity, you are at liberty to use it.—
