RECENT events have awakened so general a feeling of
the momentous importance of securing a protection
from fire to Deeds, Records, MSS., Books and Papers of
Accompt, Cash, Gunpowder, and all Combustible Materials,
that THOMAS MILNER and SON feel excused in again
inviting public notice to their PATENT FIRE RESISTING
DEPOSITORIES. Having submitted their one-chambered
Boxes, of one inch in thickness, to severe trials in the prin-
cipal towns, they have received from the authorities of each
the most satisfactory certificates of their efficiency for ordi-
nary casualties ; and, being confirmed in their opinion by a
ong course of experiment, that, under suitable modification
of chambers and thickness of boxes, the peculiar principle
of their Patent is capable of affording security under the
severest ordeal likely to occur in calamities of the kind, they
respectfully solicit the consideration of gentlemen interested
in mechanical science to the subject generally. and investiga-
tion into the pretensions of the various means of security in
use, their own amongst the rest.
M. and S. are prepared to submit their manufactures to
public trial with any others of equal dimensions, whilst their
comparatively moderate cost renders them extensively avail-
able.
The Certificate of the satisfactory trial of their Boxes in
Liverpool bears the signatures of the following gentlemen, to
whom permission of reference is kindly given : -
- THOMAS BOLTON, Esq. (ex-Mayor.)
JOHN SHAW LEIGH, Esq. (ex-Mayor.)
Sir THOMAS BRANCKER.
BARTHOLOMEW PRESCOT, Esq.
L. GRAHAM, Esq.
R. FRODSHAM, Esq.
WM. STOCK, Esq.
S. WOODS, jun., Esq.
In addition to the above, Milner and Son draw attention
to the following statements :
A trial of Milner's Patent Fire Resisting Safes and Boxes
having been announced by cards, issued to 500 of the scien-
tific and principal gentlemen of Dublin, which was adjourned
from the Royal Dublin Society's premises, on account of
alterations in progress thereon, took place at the Rotund()
Gardens, October 7th, 1842. The fire, consisting of half a
ton of coals, and fifty to sixty feet of wood and kindling, was
lighted at one o'clock, with a box and powder safe, filled
with papers, &c., in the centre. The whole were examined
by the gentlemen present, whose signatures on the certificate
were placed inside.
Sir John Kingston James kindly conducted the proceed-
ugs, and locked the box. At two o'clock, at Dr. Meyler's
suggestion, a large sugar hogshead, with both ends knocked
out, was placed over the top of the fire, which, quickly ig-
niting, caused a very fierce draught, and produced intense
heat on the tops of the boxes, which were seen through the
opening crevices of the burning cask most severely exposed.
A little before three o'clock, Dr. 11Ieyler, with whom the
keys had been left by Sir John Kingston James, opened the
box, and its contents, including several parchments with seals
attached, were found to be perfectly safe. At half-past four
o'clock the Powder Safe was taken out and opened, and the
inner cell, with its contents, were still unaffected by the heat.
It was again replaced in the fire of red coke, and kept in
until six p.m. ; when taken out, after five hours' trial. al-
though the outer cell was red hot, the inner one and contents,
on being opened, in the presence of Joshua Abel, Esq.. H.
Richardson, Esq., M.D., Messrs. Thosand, Gardiner,
Trouton, &c., were still as fresh and perfect as when placed
in the fire. We declare our satisfaction with the result of
these experiments, and our confidence in the perfect efficiency
of this principle for the preservation of all combustible ma-
terials in ordinary fires.

Gentlemen,—At the late fire which consumed my ware-
houses, I regret to inform you that my Deeds, Papers, and
Account Books, which were deposited in two Iron Safes,
made by of Dublin, were completely reduced to ashes,
The inconsenience and loss occasioned to me is very great.
As I have now no faith whatever in Iron Fire-proof Safes,
(at least so styled,) I am induced to purchase your Fire-proof
Boxes which have been so strongly tested.
I am, Gentlemen, your humble servant,
RICHARD G. HICKS.
P.S.—Please send me a No. 10, with drawers, and No. 1,
for deeds.
Ham burgh, 29th August, 1842.
A Public Test of MILNER and SON'S (of Liverpool) PA-
TENT FIRE-PROOF SAFETY BOXES, took place on
the Grassbroke, near the Elbe, this afternoon ;
We, the undersigned, having been present during the whole
time of the above, feel pleasure in' expressing our conviction
of their perfect security in all cases of casual and ordinary
fires. The Box was filled with papers, circulars, books, and
old ledgers •, in addition to which, Mr. Wenden, the repre-
sentative of the patentees, placed his watch inside ; the whole
were examined by the gentlemen present, and were locked
down by " Hernn H. C. Bleeker' 68, Admiralitatistrasse."
The fire was composed of upwards of seven cwt. of coal, and
a considerable quantity of wood, oaken slabs, and other com-
bustibles, solely under the superintendence of Mr. Thomp-
son, Manager of the Globe Foundry Iron Works. The Box
was placed in the fire, and there allowed to remain for one hour
and a half, during the chief of which time it was of a white
heat. Much curiosity was excited respecting the watch ;
but on opening the box, it was perfectly safe, and going a
true as when deposited—thewhole eontents were also pre-
served, including Le document on which this certificate is
written.

Mr. COCKLE, SURGEON, has touch pleasure in laying
before his friends and the public, Mr. ABERNETHI"S
ESTIMATION of his Antibilious Pills, extracted from a
Letter which that gentleman addressed to him in the year
1824 :

" I have ordered the use of your Antibilious Pills in affec-
tions of the stomach, attended with considerable derange-
ment of the functions of that important organ, and connected
with a torpid state of the liver and bowels, (for to this cause,
chiefly, may be attributed the various diseases of the body,
both local and constitutional,) and I have thus had frequent
opportunities of witnessing their beneficial effects. They
greatly influence the secretion of bile, and act with certainty
and in the most effectual manner on the alimentary organs,
without occasioning pain or irritation. I consider them a
most excellent family aperient medicine, and may be taken at
all times with perfect safety."
They are prepared by Mr. JAMES COCKLE, Surgeon Extra-
ordinary to Her Serene Highness the late LA:inGRAvINE of
HoMBURG, and may be had of all respectable Medi-
cine Venders, in boxes, at Is. lid., 2s. 9d., and 4s. 6d.
NOTICE.
Let it he especially observed, that those Pills only are
genuine which have the name " JAMES COCKLE, APOTHE-
CARY," in white letters, engraved on the Government Stamp.
This mark of authenticity will protect the Public against any
dangerous and deleterious imitation.
