SASSAFRAS CHOCOLATF.
DR. DE LA MOTTE'S nutritive, health-restoring
AROMATIC CHOCOLATE. nrenared from the Nuts of

the Sassafras Tree. This Chocolate contains the peculiar vir-
tues of the Sassafras Root, which has been long held in great
estimation for its purifying and alterative properties. The
aromatic quality (which is very grateful to the stomach) most
invalids require for breakfast and evening repast, to promote
digestion; and to a deficiencyof this property in the customary

breakfast and supper may, in a great measure, be attributed
the frequency of cases of indigestion
.generally termed bilious.
It has been found highly benefici e recting the state of
the digestive organs, &c., fr whence arise many diseases,
such as eruptions of the • , gout, rheumatism, and scrofula.
In cases of debility of stomach and a sluggish state of the
liver 9nd intestine ccasioning flatulence, costiveness, &c.,
and in spasmodi sthma, it is much recommended.

GREAT FIRE
IN MARKET-STREET, MANCHESTER

ENTIRELY CONSUMING A LARGE SQUARE OF WARE
HOUSES, OFFICES, AND SHOPS.
_ _

TN the last great Fire in Georze-strect, Manchester,
I nine large Houses had their Books burned in Iron Safes,
Closets with Iron Doors, Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) Safes,
&c. &c. &c. ; and again on the above recent occasion, a great
number of parties have suffered the same calamity. The only
Safe which brought its contents uninjured out of the burning
mass being the one alluded to below.

" Manchester, Au_gfit 13th, 1847,

" GENTLEMEN In the late Fire in -riCet-street, which
entirely gutted the entire block of Ulf ngs of which my Ware-
house formed part, I have since pleasure in informing you
that my books, together witl quantity of valuable papers,
watches, &c., were preser uninjured in one of your Fire-
resisting Safes, which I s ngly recommend to the public.
"I am your ob ient servant, •
" THO AS HAIGH, Woollen Merchant,
New Brown-street and Market-street.
" Messrs. Milner nd Son."

The outside of this Safe was partially melted: the contents
inside unsinged, being steamed (boiled instead of burned) by
the evaporating principle of the Safe. Near to it a large
Wrought Iron Fireproof (?) chambered Safe, full of valuable
Books and Documents before the Fire, was found to contain
nothing but tinder and ashes after it I
In tne numerous accidental Fires and experimental tests
which Miners' Safes have been exposed to—every description
of Safe in use—Fireproof (so called) or otherwise have been
burnt out beside them, confirming the recommendation of the
scientific and practical authorities who have tested them, and
the Patentees' during seven years' active working of their
patent, on a rapidly extending scale, have spared no pains nor
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 ; in-
cluding the strongest Wrought-iron Safes, Closets, and Doors
in the World. lined with their unenualled Fire-resisting Cham-
bers. Out of upwards of 20,000 of their Sates in use amongst
the Manufacturing and Commercial Houses of Great Britain—
the class best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of
exposure to accidental fire 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
preserved its contents unburnt.
Fire at Mr. J. Blackaller's Ship and Chandlery Store, Spar-
ling-street, Liverpool; a strong and fierc Fire; Safe most
severely burnt outside; contents unsinged.
Iye at Messrs. J. and W. Walkers', the extensive builders,
Birkenhead; buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in

standin

and in Use now

Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park-lane; a very strong
fire; again the contents of Milners' Safe the only thing saved
on the premises.
Fire at Plimsaul Brothers', of Plymouth; a very extensive
and destructive fire; a large Iron Safe covered with brickwork
with double Iron doors burnt out; Milners' entirely preserving
its contents.

Fire in Queen-street, Glasgow; a great number of Safes and
Closets burnt out; no books saved throughout the buildings

excepting Messrs. S. It. and Thomas Browns', in Milner-s

UN HOUSI

The Anti-Corrosion Paint has been used by the Hon. Board
of Ordnauce for upwards of half a century, who have proved
it to prevent rust or corrosion on iron longer and better than
the very best white lead or any other lescription of Paint ;

the iron gunsAand gun carriages, bci for land and sea service,
have been painted with it for tl above period. It has also
been used in great quantities other public bodies, and by

numbers of gentlemen of e' first distinction, to preserve
wooden houses, farm and er outbuildings, conservatories,
park-paling, gates, iron flings, iron hurdles, copper, zinc,
lead, old compo, &c. fr ts, and tiles to represent slating. It
will be found a very s erior preservative of iron steam boats,
iron bridges, piers, any other extensive iron works.
This Paint.is ad rubly adapted for preventing the decay of
old Stone or Bric Mansions, Churches, or other public edifices
requiring an eff tual defence against the elements, as it will
become harder han stone in a few months after it is laid on.
It is particularly recommended to 'West India Proprietors,
Emigrants, and others 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 been always
most strenuously opposed by Co!or Manufacturers, Painters, Oil
and Colormen, and all others interested in the sale of common
Paint.
Noblemen and Landed Proprietors, anxious to have their
outbuildings, &c. properly preserved, will effect a very consi-
derable saving by desiring their Stewards to order the Anti
Corrosion Paint, as any labourer can lay it on, thereby avoiding
the enormous charges generally made by. Painters.
The Anii-Corrosion is a Powder, and it will keep any length
of time. Colors : White stone, light ditto, drab or Portland
ditto, Bath ditto, light and dark yellow ditto, light and dark
oak, brown, light and dark lead, light and dark- chocolate,
bright and dark red, copper and black, 345. per cwt. ; invisible
green, 505., deep green, 605., bright green, 605., and blue, (for
carts and wagons,) 60s. per cwt. Large tinned brushes, 3s. 6d. ;
small tinned ditto, 2s. Gd. ; and sash tools, Is. fid. each. Oil
and Turpentine, per gallon.
The expense of the colors at Ms. per cwt., when the Oil is
added, is about 4d. per lb. ; and those at 60s. are about 6d.
per lb. - - .

In submitting particulars and prices of the Anti-Corrosion
Paint, W. C. begs respectfully to call the attention of the No-
bility, Gentry, and others having out-door work to preserve,
to the testimonials in its favour, which, from their number,
(upwards of 300,) and the rank and station in society of those
who have given them, have, perhaps, never yet been equalled
by anything of the kind hitherto brought before the public
notice.
