In short, whatever affects the beneficial employment of capital

Reports are regularly given of the English, Scotch, and Irish
Agricultural Societies and Farmers' Clubs—London Market
Prices of Corn, Hay, Cattle, Seeds, Hops, Potatoes, Wool, Coal,
Timber, Bark, &c., and the Weekly Averages.

As regards the Gardening Part, (under the Editorship of Dr.
Lindley,) the principle is to make it a weekly record of every-
thing that bears upon Horticulture, Floriculture, Arboricul-
ture, or Garden Botany, and such Natural History as has a
relation to Gardening, with Notices and Criticisms of all
Works on such subjects. Connected with this part are

WEEKLY CALENbARS OF GARDENING OPERATIONS,
given in detail, and adapted to the objecis of persons in every
station of life ; so that the Cottager, with a few rods of ground
before his door, the Amateur who has only a Greenhouse, and
the Manager of Extensive Gardens, are alike informed of the
routine of Operations which the varying seasons render neces-
sary. It moreover contains Reports of Horticultural Exhibi-
tions and Proceedings—Notices of Novelties and Improve-
ments—in fact, everything that can tend to advance the Pro-
fession, benefit the condition of the Workman, or conduce to
the pleasure of his Employer; Woodcuts are given whenever
the matter treated of requires that mode of illustration.
Replies to Questions connected with the object of the Paper
are also furnished weekly.

Lastly, that descriptiOn of Domestic and Political News is
introduced which is usually found in a Weekly Newspaper. It
is unnecessary to dwell on this head further than to say, that
the Proprietors do not range themselves under the banners of
any Party ; their earnest endeavours are to make THE GAR-
DENERS' CHRONICLE and AGRICULTURAL GAZETTE a full
and comprehensive Record of Facts only —a Newspaper in the
true sense of the word—leaving the Reader to form his own
opinions : their object being the elucidation of the laws of
Nature, not of Man. The Reader is thus furnished, in addition
to the peculiar features of the Journal, with such information
concerning the events of the day, as supersedes the necessity
of his providing himself with any other 'Weekly Paper.
A PROSPECTUS, WITH LIST OF CONTRIBUTORS, may be had
on application, or by letter, at the Ofllcc, 5, Upper Wellington-
street, Covent-garden, London.
Parties intending to commence with the New Volume had
better give their Orders at once to any Newsvendor.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRES IN GLASGOW, MAN-

CHESTER, LINCOLN'S-INN, &c.
MILNER'S " HOLDFAST" and FIRE-RESIST-
ING SAFES are the strongest, best, and cheapest safe-
guard 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 superi-
ority to any others. Five of them have brought their contents
unscathed out of the ruins of large fires in Glasgow alone this
year, wherein scores of other safes have been burnt out.
Twenty-five offices were burnt out in Lincoln's-inn in January,
in one alone of which the title-dee (thirty large landed
estates were burnt, which wou have been preserved in
Milner's Safes. From some deeds of certificates, the fol-
lcwing is selected, as o out of many instances in which
everything was cons ed in the buildings excepting what

e-street, Anderston, Glasgow, May 7, 1849.
" Gentle n,—At the calamitous tire yesterday morning, by
which our premises, and stock of oil, tallow, &c., were totally
destroyed, our books were preserved in the Milner's Fireproof
Safe, purchased from you. We have great pleasure in this
bearing testimony to the great efficiency of thcse Safes.
" CHARLES BOYD and CO.',
This Safe was most severely tested; the brass knob:and brass
work about the lock were melted off.
Glasgow, loth February, 1849.

" Gentlemen,—The books and papers which we ha 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 pub-
lic cannot be too well acquainted.—We are, gentlemen, your
obedient servants, " KER, DOERING, and CC."
The outside of the above Safe was completely burnt through.

" Messrs. Th6s. Ailner and Son, Liverpool.
"Gentlemen,—Our Milner's Safe was attempted to be bro-
ken open last night ; but, notwithstanding the great and per-
severing violence with which the robbers have worked at the
door and back of the Safe (both of which are neaten in and cut
through the outer plates in numerous places), the lock and
bolts remained true, and saved the contents. You may send
us another Milner's Holdfast Safe, No. 6.

" 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 papers,
watches, &c., were preserved uninjured in one of your Fire-
resisting Safes. which I strongly recommend to the pubic.—l

In the numerous accidental fires and experimental tests
's Safes have been exposed to, every descriptiors
efsafe
use—fireproof
(so called) or otherwise—have been
burnt
0 tl rs
ile 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;
including the strongest wrought-iron safes and closets in the
world, lined with their unequalled fire-resisting chambers.
Out of upwards of 20,000 of their safes in use amongst the
manufacturing and commercial houses in Great Britain—the
class best able to appreciate their value—numerous cases of
severe trial ins 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 owns
would have preserved its contents unburnt :
Fire at Mr. J. B. Blackaller's Ship Chandlery Store, Sparling-
street, Liverpool : a strong and fierce fire; safe most severely
burnt outside; contents unsinged.
Fir. at Messrs..T. and W. Walker's, the extensive builders,
Birkenhead: buildings entirely gutted, everything burnt in
them, including the contents of large iron safe and drawers,
standing beside Milner s; the contents of Milner's uninjured,
and in use now. - _

Fire at Messrs. Garniss and Co.'s, Park lane: a very strong
fire; again the contents of Milner's Safe the only things saved
on the premises.
Fire at Plimsaul Brothers, of Plymouth : a very extensive
and destructive tire; a large iron safe, covered with brickwork,
with double iron doors, burnt out ; Milner's entirely preser-
ving its contents.

Fire in Queen•street, Glasgow : a great number •f safes and
closets burnt out; no books saved throughout the buildings
excepting Messrs. S. R. and Thomas Brown's, in Milner's
Safe.
