position and quality of the POTASS and SODA
CARBONATED WATERS, after a careful minute Analysis of
the same, as they are manufactured by Mr. ROBERT ELLIS,
of Ruthin, and find them both remarkably pure and strong in
gas ; the amount of which is equal to from 13 to 16 times the
volume of the liquid contained in each bottle, and ranges
therefore from 221 to 272 cubic inches. The quantity of Soda
and Potash in each bottle is equal to 25 grains of the bicar•
bonate of either alkali.

"The Water in itself is absolutely pure, has no taint of
organic matter; and is not liable to alteration or decomposition
by being kept any length of time. It will prove most service-
able in all ailments of the urinary organs, in dyspepsia, in acid
eructations, in psoriasis, and other forms of cutaneous disease.

212° MILNER'S PATENT FIRE-RESISTING
SAFES.
MILNER t•. HARRISON.

SECOND TRIAL AT LAW FOR PIRACY OF MILNER'S PATENT.
THE Defendant, JOHN GERMAN HARRISON, having
persevered in the sale of Safes constructed on the princi-
ple of Milner's Patent, in defiance of the verdict found against
him in June, 1851, in the Court of Queen's Bench, and an In-
junction afterwards awarded against him by the Court of
Chancery (he pretending that the Safes sold by him since the
first trial were not infringements but made under a patent
granted to Messrs. Sann), a second action was brought on the
suggestion of Vice-Chancellor Sir George Turner, to try
whether such safes were or were not infringements on Milner's
Patent.
This action was tried on the 23th June last, before Lord
Campbell and a special jury. The following extracts from the
learned Judge's address to the jui y in summing up will show
distinctly the questions submitted to the jury :
Lord Campbell.—" 1 own it seems to me that Mr. Harrison
does not appear before you in very advantageous colours from
these proceedings. He had been in the service of Messrs.
Milner, and whil in their service he takes another shop, and
there he begins and sells fire-proof boxes which were agreed by
a jury sitting where you now are to be substantially the same
as those of Milner, the Patentee, and that record has been
given in evidence: you are not bound by it, but you may at-
tend to it; and I must own that I do not see any reason to
believe that the jury who sat on the trial of that cause were in
any respect mistaken in point of fact, and I do not discover
that there is any real difference between this case and that ;
you will attend to all the evidence, and form your own conclu-
sion from the evidence that has been given.
" You are first called upon to say whether this invention of
Messrs. Milner is new. As to wheter it is useful, it seems to
me to be allowed on all hands, it seems a most marvellous pre
servative against fire ; for the water remains permanently
held in artificial vessels or in natural vessels, and the very
calamity brings the cure, for the heat causes the water to ex-
pand, and then it is turned into steam, and the steam moistens
the substance which is to be preserved, and so it is an effectual
guard against fire.
" If you think this was new, then the only remaining ques-
tion is with regard to the infringement.
" Now the infringement seems to rest upon substantially the
same evidence as the infringement on the former trial, when
the action was brought against Mr. Harrison.
" Now you find with respect to Tann's Patent, whatever
Tann's invention might have been, that this patent which he
manufactures, and which the defendant Harrison sells, and of
which be calls himself the sole proprietor,' operates in the
same way. It seems to me to act precisely the same way as in
Milher's patent, but upon that you will form your own judg-
ment. Then if it really has the same effect, and operates in
the same manner, and upon the same principle, it will be for
you to say whether you have any doubt it is an infraction of
Milner's Patent. Those are the two questions for you to con-
sider.”

are a mere piracy of Milner's invention. After the trial last
year, it wes pretended that the Safes then condemned were not
made according to Tann's Patent—in other words that the
water in then had not been boiled and set to cool before being
used. The three Safes upon which this second action was
brought were sworn to by Messrs. Tann as being made accord-
ing to their Paler.!.
The Public of Liverpool will remember the species of adver-
tisements by which this wretched case has been upheld. THEY
have been as much imposed upon, with regard to the quality
and price of the safes sold by these parties, as the advertisers
have been wronged by their illegal use of Milner's (the only
effective) Fire-resisting principle. The experience of Mr.
Cafferata, as shown at this trial, (by a gentleman unknown to
us before,) is only that of all the buyers of these things. Mr.
C. was induced to give £l5 for a safe, 22 x 16 x 16, on the
assurance that it was "'Thief-proof—three quarter inch thick
solid wrought iron," &c., &c. Looking at it a day or two
afterwards, at home, and on scraping the paint off it, he found
it a MERE SHELL—a perfect delusion; and those who have
intrusted their valuable property to such safeguards will do
well to take the same course.
For our own Safes, we have devoted our lives and our earn-
ings to the production of the best securities in the world against
Fire, Robbery, or Violence, which the public has given to us
the best means of making, and which we mean to sell at the
lowest remunerating prices. Before buying a Safe, if parties
will look into our works, and see the labour and attention
paid to the manufacture in all its details, they will be less likely
to be imposed upon by external appearances and fallacious
representations in the very important matter of the selection
of a Safe. "MILNER'S PHCENIX SAFE Wonns," (late Wind-
sor Foundry,) Falkner-street, are said to be the finest work-
shops in Europe, of their class! certainly THE MOST EXTEN-
SIVE AND COMPLETE SAFE MANUFACTORY IN THE WORLD,
employing more hands than all the Safe makers in Great Bri-
tain, and the Proprietors respectfully invite the people of
Liverpool to inspect an establishment that has originated under
our present patent, and grown up amongst them. The effect
of these trials will be to confirm to Messrs. Milner and Son the
exclusive use of materials or vessels in which, to use the
Judge's words, " the water remains permanently held until the
occurrence of the calamity (Fire) brings the cure." The trials
by the Liverpool Polytechnic Society of Chubb's and Marr's
Boxes filled with anhydrous (dry)
theer's,
filled according to their evaporatingprinciple, proving
manifest superiority of the latter, will be remembered, and
such is now the defined relative position of Milner's only effec-
tive File-taming principle, by the agency of water and its
rapout contrasted with all others without, that agency. ZN

To Professor Holloway,-*—Sir,—For a very long period I was
afflicted with a dangerous giddiness and frequent swimming:6
in the head, attended by loss of appetite, disordered stomach,
and generally impaired health. Every means had failed to give
me any permanent relief, and at length it became so alarming
that I was really afraid of going ,about without an attendant.
In this melancholy condition I waited personally upon Mr.
Hughes, Chemist, Harlech, jot the purpose of consulting him
as to what I had better do • he kindly recommended your
Pills, I tried them without delay, and after taking them for a
short time I am happy to bear testimony to their wonderful
efficacy. lam now restored to perfect health, and enabled to

To Professor Holloway,7-Sir,—l deem it a duty I owe to you
and the public at large to inform you of a most miraculous re-
covery from that dreadful disease, Dropsy, and which, under
God, was affected by your invaluable Pills. I was tapped five
times within eight months, and skilfully treated by two medical
practitioners, hut could not get cured, until I had recourse to
your remedy, and notwithstanding all I had undergone, this
miraculous medicine cured me in the course of six weeks.

Extract of a Letter .f?•om Mr. S. Gowen, Chemist, of Clifton,

Bristol, near Bristol, dated July 14th, 1852.
To Professor Holloway, —Dear Sir,-1 am a requested by a
lady named Thomas, just arrived from the West Indies, to
acquaint you that for a period of eight years herself and family
suffered from continual bad health, arising from disorders of
the Liver and Stomach, Indigestion, Loss of Appetite, violent
Head-aches, pains in the side, weakness and general debility,
for which she consulted the most eminent men in the colony,
but without any beneficial result ; at last, she had recourse to
your invaluable Pills, which in a very short time effected so
great a change for the better, that she continued them, and the
whole family were restored to health and strength. S. GowEN.

liver, arising from frequent colds, smells of paint, and the ef-
fects of a stooping position which he was obliged to assume in
his business. At length he heard of your invaluable Pills, and
gave them a trial. The first dose gave him considerable re-
lief, and by following them up in accordance with your direc-
tions, they have acted so wonderfully in cleansing the liver and
stomach, and strengthening the digestive organs, that he has
been restored to the enjoyment of good health. W. BOSTOCK.
