MILNER'S " HOLDFAST" and FIRE-RESIST-
ING SAFES are the strongest, best, and cheapest safe-
guards in the world against fire, robbery, and fraud ; 20,000 of
them keep the books, deeds, and cash of the practical men of
Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, &c., who know their supe-
riority to any other others. Five of them have brought their
contents unscathed out of the ruins of large fires in Glasgow
alone this year, wherein scores of othoe safes have been burnt
out. Twenty-five offices were burnt' out in Lincoln's Inn in
January, in one alone of which e title-deeds of thirty largo
landed estates were burnt, whi would all have been preserved,
in Milner's Safes. From s e hundreds of certificates, tho
following is selected, as e out of many instances in which

"Clypeit.reet,Anclerstot2, Glasgow, May 7, 1849,

"Gentlement the calamitous fire yesterday morning, by
which our pre ises, and stock of oil, tallow, Sze., were totally
destroyed, our books were preserved in the Milner's Fireproof
Safe, purchased from you. We have great pleasure in thus
bearing testimony to the great efficiency of these Safes.
"CHARLES BOYD and Co.
"This Safe was most severely tested, the brass knob and
brass work about the lock were melted off."

"Glasgow, 10th February, 1849

"Gentlemen,—The books and papers which we had in your
Fire-resisting Safe, which was subjected to a most intense heat
for several hours at the late fire in Gordon-street, on Thursday
last, were wholly preserved—the property saved being of ex-
treme importance to us. We have, therefore, great pleasure in
communicating this fact, deeming your Safes invaluable as a
protection against fire, and an invention with which the public
cannot be too well acquainted.
" We are, gentlemen, your obedient servants,
" KER, DOERING, and Co.
" Messrs. Thos. Milner and Son, Liverpool."
The outside of the above Safe was completely burnt through.
"Triumphant Resistance to Robbers."

"Gentlemen,—Ourlner's Safe was attempted to be broken
open last night; but notwithstanding the great and persevering
violence with which the robbers have worked at the door and
back of the safe both of which are beaten in and cut through
the outer plates in numerous places.) the lock and bolts re-
mained true, and saved the contents. You may send us another

JAS. RICHARDSON and Co."
"Manchester. August 13th. 1847.

"Gentlemen,—ln the late Fire in Market-street, which en•
tirely gutted the whole block of buildings of which my Ware-
house formed part, I have sincere pleasure in informing you
that my books, together with a quantity of valuable paners,
watches, &c., were preserved uninjured in one of your Fire.
esisting Safes, which I strongly recommend to the public.
"I am, your obedient servant,

" Messrs. MILNER and Sox."

In the numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests
which Milner's Safes have been exposed to—every description
of Safe in use—Fire-proof (so called) •r otherwise, have been
burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the
scientific and practical authorities whohave tested them ; and
the Patentees, during seven years' active working of their pa-
tent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no pains or cost
in effecting improvements, by which they are enabled to pledge
themselves at all times to supply the most complete and secure
depositories for Books, Documents, and Valuables, including
the strongest Wrought-Iron Safes, Closets, and Doors in the
world, lined with their unequ 410 Fire-resisting Chambers.
Out of upwards of 20,000 of their Safes in use amongst the
Manufacturing and Compercial. Houses in Great Britain—the
class best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of se-
vere trial in accidental Fires have occurred, from which Thomas
Milner and Son select the following as instances, in which they
are of opinion that no other Safe than their own would have
woorved its contents unburnt
Flre at Mr. J. B. Blackaller's Ship nandlery Store, Spar-
ling-street, Liverpool; a strong and fierce Fire; Safe most
severely burnt outside.

Fire it Messrs. J. and W. Walkers', the extensive builders,
Birkenhead; buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in
them, including the contents of a large Iron Safe and Drawers,
standing beside Milner's ; the contents of Milners' uninjured,
and in use now.

Fire at 3lessrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a very strong
Fire; again the contents of Milner's Safe the only thing saved
on the premises. _ _ .

Fire at Plimsaul Brothers, of Plymouth ; a very extensive
and destructive Fire; a large Iron .S.ife, covered with Brick-
work, with double fro* doors, burnt out ; Milner's entirely
preserving its contzuts.
Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow; a great number of Safes and
Closets burnt out; no books saved throughout tho buildings

THE NORTH WALES CHRONICLE,
UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT.
MR. A. R. MARTIN (of the LIVERPOOL MATO
respectfully informs the inhabitants of the Principality
that he has purchased the Copyright and Printing Materials of
the NORTH WALES CHRONICLE, which he
aided in esta-
blishing, twenty-three years ago, and which was subsequently
conducted by him fora brief period, and that he will shortly
be enabled to leave Liverpool, and devote his time and atten.,
tion wholly to the management of the Paper.
Without alluding more particularly to the wretched produees
turns which have, hitherto, under tl 0-falsely-assumed designa-
tion of " Newspapers," retard , rather than promoted, the
progress of constitutional fe 7, in North Wales. and merely
premising that his missio sto correct the lassitude and in-
difference thus indnc and cultivated ; he begs to say that
very considerable i rovements have been already introduced
into the leading partment, and that other extensive altera-
tions are contemplated, and will be carried into effect at as:
early a period as possible. The result, it is honed, will be the
production of a REALLY FIRST-CLASS NEWSPAPER, whose
principles, powerfully though temperately inculcated, shall be
the support of the British Constitution ht Church and State,
and the protection of Native Industry, whether employed in
Agriculture, Ships, or Commerce, at Home or in the Colonies;
in short, such an organ of public opinion as the Principality,
from its loyalty and the extent and importance of its interests,
has a rizht to demand from those who assume the high and
responsible office of public teaching.
In these plain remarks, the Proprietor hopes he has suffi-
ciently indicated the principles on which the NORTH WALES
CHRONICLE shall in future be carried on. In a cause so
clearly just, on principles so essentially British, lie cannot ap-
prehend that he shall not receive the support of the entire
Principality. He has been already assured of very extensive
encouragement from a number of the leading gentlemen of
Anglesey, Carnarvonshire, Denbighshire, and Flintshire, who,
suggested to him the probability that his enterprise and indus-
try would secure an rdequate reward.
Hr. MARTIN judges that his knowledge of the Principality—
his experience in every department of the Newspaper busines%
—his connexion with the Liverpool Mail during the last twelve
years—ten years as Assistant-Editor, and two years es Pub-
lisher and Assistant-Editor—will fully justify him in entering;
upon this truly arduous undertaking; but lie has further to
add, that it will be his endeavour to secure the assistance of
intelligent Correspondents in all the chief towns of the north-
ern counties of Wales, as well as in London, Dublin, and Li-
verpool. _ _ _

A new and handsome Fount of Tye, and a Printing Machine,
calculated to work off one thousand sheets per hour, will shortly
be purchased for the establishment ; the paper will be greatly
enlarged ; and the Proprietor is determined to combine the
employment of the first Literary, Political, and Reporting ta-
lent, eiith the most perfect Mechanical appliances.
A Prospectus for a new paper, under the revived title of the
defunct North Wales Gazette, has been issued by the party
whose editorial labours have been superseded by the above
purchase, It may, perhaps, be unnecessary for Mr. MArrrtm
to disclaim all connexion with anything originating from that
quarter, but be would not wish that any one should be de-
ceived in consequence of his neglecting to put his disclaimer
on record. No person connected with the management of the
late establishment has anything whatever to do with the
