red with the old descrip-

let ipjury to their content:

titan an,/other Sale:
They have been publicly tested in Liverpool, London, and
Glasgow, for a space of time longer in each instance than any
Safe of similar dimensions has yet been subjected to.
At the late fire in Water-lane, Blackfriars, London, one of
Tann's Safes preserved its contents uninjured, while SAFES OF
OTHER DESCRIPTIONS ENTIRELY FAILED.
Experience proves that Safes made of thin sheet iron, such as
have been lately sold in the manufacturing districts, cannot be
Fire-proof, and are next to useless. The Safe referred to in the
following advertisement (taken from the Times, Morning Chro-
nicle, Daily News, &c.) cost .Wl6, and is a sample of the boasted
20.000 that have been sold to the mercantile public :
"THE FIRE IN SEETHING-LANE.—W. M. SMITH'S

WAREHOUSE.
" Mr. W. M. SMITH regrets to inform his friends and the
public that his WAREHOUSE BOOKS WERE DESTROYED IN THE
FIRE on the 19th instant. The books were deposited in one of
MILNER'S PATENT SAFES. Mr. Smith will esteem it a great
favour if those parties who had housed goods at Seething-lane,
will oblige him by lodging any accounts, weight-notes, &c.,
which they have received from him, to assist him (in connexion
with his stock lists) in replacing the books."
Mr. SMITH has since been supplied with one of TAN N'S
SAFES.

The Patentees have, within the last few days, received in-
structions from the Engineers of the Hon. Board of Ordnance
to construct Two large SAFES, weighing two tons each, to be
sent to the Tower of London. They are also manufacturing for
South Sea House One SAFE, weighing upwards of five tons.
