FURNISHING IRONMONGERY WAREHOUSE,

CARSON'S ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION
PAINT, specially patronised by the British, French,
Russian, and Sicilian Governments, the Hon. East India
Company, the New River Company, the principal Dock Com-
panies, and other Public Bodies.
The ANTI-CORROSIVE PANT has been used by the
Hon. Board of Ordnance for.upitards of half a century, who
have proved it to prevent rust -of corrosion on Iron longer
and better than the very beat 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 quanti-
ties by other public bodies, and by numbers of Gentlemen of
the first distinction, to preserve Wooden Houses, Farm and
other Outbuildings,ConservatOfies, Park Paling, Gates, Iron
Railing, Iron Hurdles, Copper; Zinc, Lead, old Compo, &c.,
Fronts and Tiles to represent Slating. It will be found a
very superior preservative of Iron Steam Boats, Iron Bridges,
Piers, or any other extensive Iron Works.
This Paint is admirably adapted for preventing the decay
of old stone or brick Mansions, Churches, or other Public
Edifices 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 Manufacturers, and others interested in the sale of
Common Paint. _ .

GREAT FIRE AT THE G-UTTA
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. 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.

" City-road, London, Bth June, 1853.
" SIRS,—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 th
has in many parts melted the outside of the safee intense heat.
" 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 you may wish.
" We are, Sirs. your obedient servants,
"THE GUTTA PERCHA COMPANY.

"Scotland-road Mills, Liverpool, 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,
anti 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
hnt in which they were again foiled.
