GREAT FIRE IN BELFAST.
"Messrs. MUSORAVE, BROTHERS.—GENTLEMEN,—At your request, I beg to state, for the information of the public,
that the only property saved from the late fire, in the premises of Thomas S. Major and Co., was that contained in one of
Miners' Patent Safes. From the intense nature of the fire, and the length of time the Safe was exposed to the action of the
!flames, I was fully convinced of the destruction of the books and papers it contained ; and feel very great pleasure in testify-
ing to this extraordinary instance of their preservation. I may add, that the Safe was placed on the third story, without any
protection, where it remained tilt the floor was burnt around it, when it fell to the room beneath, the floor of which was like-
wise destroyed by the fire.—Yours, truly, "JAMES S. HUNTER,
" Executor of the late Thomas S. Major, of the Firm of Thomas S. Major and Co.

TRIUMPHANT RESISTANCE TO ROBBERS.

AT MESSRS. BUTTERWORTH AND BROOKES'S,

MANCHESTER.
"Sin,—Last night our Premises were entered by burglars, who made a desperate attempt upon the Milners' Holdfast
Safe we bought from you some time since ; and, although they evidently bad recourse to all the usual appliances of accom-
plished thieves, and ultimately to gunpowder in abundance, we are glad to say with no other effect than to injure the lock—
the opening of the Safe they found quite impracticable.
•' We are happy to be enabled to express our unqualified approbation of the Safe; we believe it is impregnable to thieves.
"If our verbal testimony will be of service to you, you are at liberty to refer to us, and to make any use you please of
pia communication.—Yours, respectfully, "BUTTERWORTH and BROOKES.

VIRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.—These
.11 Pills are particularly efficacious for Stomach Coughs,
Colds, Agues, Shortness of Breath, and, if taken after too free
an indulgence at table, they quickly restore the system to its
natural state of repose. They are an excellent aperient,
create appetite, relieve languor, and invigorate the spirits.
" For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province,
of Winchinore Hill. Middlesex,) I have experienced the effi-
cacy of this excellent Medicine. I had long previously been
afflicted with headache and indigestion; but a friend having
induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform
you that a few doses gave me great relief ; and during this
long period of time I have taken them in preference to any
other medicine; and I have the happiness of saying that.'
never had a better state of health, which I attribute to
Frampton's Pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine
is in general use by my family, and we know of nothing
to equal it."
Persons of a Full Habit, who are subject to Head-ache,
Giddiness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from
too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be with-
out them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely
carried off by their immediate use. For Females, these Pills
are truly excellent, remoring all obstructions, the distressing
Head-ache so very prevalent with the sex; Depression of
Spirits, Dulness of Sight, Nervous Affections, Blotches,
Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin, and give a healthy and
juvenile bloom to the complexion. To Mothers they are
confidently recommended as the best medicine that can be
taken during pregnancy; and for children of all ages they are
unequalled. As a pleasant, safe, and easy Aperient,they unite
the recommendation of a mild operation with the most suc-
cessful effect. By regulating the dose, according to the age
and strength of the patient, they become suitable for every
case, in either sex, that can be required.

OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND'S AMERI-
CAN SARSAPARILLA.—This is one of the most ex-
traordinary and valuable Medicines in the world. Its supe-
riority over other preparations of like character, made in this
country, arises from the mode of manufacture, and the ad-
vantage of obtaining and working the root in its green and
fresh state. The root, when brought to this country, is dry,
vapid, and almost tasteless, its virtues and juices having all
evaporated ; while it often becomes mouldy, musty, and
partially decayed, so that it is quite unfit for use.

ENGLISH TESTIMONY

We give a few of the many communications we have re-
ceived since we have been in England, from those who have
experienced the great benefits of using this celebrated medi-
cine. They must have some weight in convincing the public
of its great value.

49, Davies-street, Berkeley-square, Sept. 1, 1851.
Gentlemen,—l have much pleasure in testifying to the
numerous thanks I have received from various persons who
have taken Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla,many of
whom will be happy to give you testimonials should you re-
quire them. I am doubly pleased to be able to speak to the
good effects I have seen myself produced by the Sarsaparilla;
for I must confess that, although I was not prejudicial, I was
rather sceptical as to its virtues, which I would not have
believed it possessed, had I not seen it.—l am, gentlemen,
your obedient servant, _ JOHN JAMIESON.

Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co.
FURTHER IMPORTANT TESTIMONY.—GREAT CURE OF PILES.
17, Phelps-street. IValworth, 1:,1). 22, 1853.
Gentlemen,—l was afflicted with the blind Piles, and was
under medical treatment fur three months, but obtained no
relief. Hearing of Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, I
obtained some, and, after taking it a short time, the accumu-
lated corrupt matter copiously discharged, and I almost im-
mediately obtained relief. I still continued its use for a
time, and not only found relief, but a cure, and am now free
from pain. I most sincerely recommend it to all who are
similarly affected.—l am, gentlemen, your obedient servant,
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co. Wu. HYDE.
8, Ashley-terrace, City-road, London, June 9, 1852.
GENTLEMEN,—PIease send me again three quart bottles of
Old Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla. I feel much better, and
the general system greatly improved, and I hope I shall be
all right with the three now ordered..—l am, gentlemen, yours
very respectfully, JOHN W. MUNCH.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co., 373, Strand.
William Wearn, 1, High-street, Southsea, writes; " I have
taken several bottles of Old Townsend's Sarsaparilla, and
derived benefit from it." Rev. J. W Wilson, Wesleyan
Minister, at Biggleswade, writes, June 7, 1852, " I have de-
rived much benefit from taking Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla,"
FEMALE COMPLAINTS.—GREAT CURE OF NERVOUSNESS.
London, June 10, 1832.
Gentlemen,—My wife has been long afflicted with a nervous
complaint, from which she suffered severely. Able physicians
and many remedies were tried in vain, but I am happy to in-
form you that she has entirely recovered by using a few
bottles of Old Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co. J. R. PETERSON.

PIMPLES, BLOTCHES, ERUPTIONS, &C.
The same may be said of these as in the cure of the severer
chronic maladies; the Sarsaparilla and the Ointment will
effectually wipe off all disagreeable eruptions, and render the
surface clear and beautiful. Ladies troubled with rough,
pimply skin, or a gross, masculine surface, will do well to use
these Medicines, if they wish clear, delicate, and transparent
complexions. Nothing can exceed their efficacy in this respect.

CURE OF A DISORDERED STOMACH.
Lower Grosvenor-street, Grosvenor-square, July 31, 1851.
Gentlemen,—l beg to inform you that I have been using
your Medicine, Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla, for a complaint
in my stomach, from which I suffered a long time, and I am
happy to say it has cured me. I shall be happy to answer
any letter of inquiry, as I am satisfied your Sarsaparilla is
worthy of all the recommendation I can ',bye it.

SICK HEADACHE—A CASE OF MANY YEARS' STANDING.
The following is one of those cases arising from a disordered
state of the functions, which affect the whole system,
and bring on some of the most distressing sufferings. This
lady has suffered more or less for ten years, and has now en-
tirely recovered by the use of Dr. Townsenn's Sarsaparilla.
She says : " Berkeley-square, Jan. 15, 1853.
" Messrs. Pomeroy and Co.—l have used your Dr. Town-
send's Sarsaparilla for sick headache arid general debility,
arising from a disordered state of my rystem, and am happy
that it has completely restored me to former
°Ustrength. I experience a degree of comfort,
buoyancy of spirits, and renewed strength, which I have not
ten years. This great benefit alone induces me to
