EVANS & WATSON'S SALAMAN DER SAFES TRIUMPHANT, as they al ways are when put to the test. Philadelphia, Dec. 15th, 1854. Messrs. Evans ii Watson, No. 26 sonlh Fourth Street, Philadelphia.—Gentlemen: We :ake pleasure in recommending your Salamander Sales to merchants and others in want of a secure means of preserving their books, papers, &c., ftom fire, as the one we purchased from you about seven months since has preserved onr books, pa pers, and cash in as good condition as they were when put into it, before the great lire of this morning, which destroyed the entire block of buildings corner of Chestnut and Fifth Streets. Ihe above Safe was in nsp in our office, on the second floor of our build ing, from which place it fell into the cellar, and remained there until the fire was out.— The sale was then removed, and oppened in the presence of at least 1000 persons, who witnessed 1 tic good condition ol the contents. Will you please have the Safe antl locks re paired, as we intend to put it in use again, having perfect confidence in its fire proof qualities. Yours, respectfully, LACEY & PHILLIPS. Evans & Watson take pleasure in referring to the following, among the many hundreds, who have their Safes in use:—U. S. Mint, Philadelphia: Farmers & Mechanics' Bank, Philadelphia; Samuel Allen, Esq. High Sher iff, Philadelphia; John N. Heudeison, City Controller; Caleb Cope & Co., No. 183 Mar ket street; Richard Norris &Son. Locomotive builders, Philadelphia; Bancroft & Sellers, Machinists, corner 16th and James streets: Franklin Fire Insurance Co., Philadelphia: Pennsylvania Railroad Co., Philadelphia; Laeey & Phillips, corner of 6th and Minor street; Sharpless Bro., No. 32 south Second street; James, Kent & Santee, No. 1-17 north Third street. A large assortment of the above Safes al ways on hand [warranted to stand at least 10 per cent, more fire than any Herring's Sale now in use.] Evans & Watson also manufacture and keep lor sale, Iron Shutters, Iron Doors, and Iron Sash, for making fire proof Vaults, for Banks, stores, private and public buildings; Seal and Letter Copying Presses ; Patent Slate Lined Refrigerators,&c. Piease give us a call at No. 26 South 4th street Philadelphia. EVANS & WATSON. March 27, 1856. TONICS WON'T DO. TBIHEY never did do mote than give tempo rary'relief and they never will. It is be cause they don't touch the cause of the dis ease. The ca'ise of all ague and hillious dis eases is the atmospheric poison called Mias ma or Malaria. Neutralize this poison by its NATURAL ANTIDOTE. and all diseases caused by it disappears at once. Rhodes' Fever and Ague Cure is this Antidote to Malaria, and moreover it is a perfectly harmless medicine. The certificate of the celebrated chemist, J. It. Chilton, of New York, In this effect, is attached to every bottle; therefore if it does no good it cur. do no harm. This is more than can be said of Quinine, Arsenic, or tiny tonic in existence, as their ue is ruinous tn the constitution nipt brings on DUMB AGUE, which never allows a per son tn feel pnrlecily well for a single moment. In illustration of these truths ! annex some extracts from a letter just received from a Physician : Georgetown, Ohio, March 17, '56. JAS. A. HIIODKS, Esq.—Dear Sir: Yours of 2d inst. is at hand. The Cure arrived late last year and tho difficulty in gelling any one to try it was greatly increased from the fact that a remedy had been introduced which was growing in favor with the public, as be ing better than using Quinine, —not knowing I presume that the remedy they needed to escape taking Quinine, contained the DRUG ITSELF! This remedy,(kno'.' uas "Smith's Tonic,") would invariably BRfc-AK an ague, but it did not CURE it, and it would often return with renewed vigor. .The one circumstance I deemed in your favor, if I could institute a test comparison between it and your CURE. The following is the result: "fhree persons look your "Cure," ail of which were cases of "Quotidian Intermit tent Fever," of many weeks standing. They had tried Quinine, and other remedies, occa sionally missing a chill, but it was, (as in all such cases,; slowly wearing them out, and laying the Inundation of other and severer maladies. I did succeed in effecting a radi cal cure of all three of these cases with your remedy, and they have not had a chill since. In all three of these cases the "Smith's Ton- I ic" had been used, and would, as before sta- I ted, break the chill, but after a period or two bad elapsed it would return. I think there will be no difficulty now in giving to your "Cure" the vantage ground of any other rmnedv now in use here. &e. &c. WILLI AM BUCKNEU, M. D. RHODES' FEVER and AGUE CURE, or Antidote to Malaria, the only harmless reme dy in existence, is equally certain as a PRE VENTIVE, as a "CURE." Take it when yon feel the ohill coming on, and you will never have a single one. JAMES A. RHODES, Proprietor. , . „ Providence, R. I. For sale by Druggists generally. Jane 18, 1656.

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE, There is an evil habit sometimes indulged in by boys, in solitude, and which, if not re formed in due trine, not only begets serious obsiaclos to matrimonial happiness,bul give* rise to a series of protracted, insidious, and devastating afflictions. Few ol those who give way to this pernicious practice ate a ware ol the consequences, nntil they find the nervous eystetn shattered, feel strange and unaccountable feelings, and vague fear* in the mind.

' The only Safe which, in every instance, preserved the entire contents at the late Extensive Fires. AT THE BURNING OF THE ARTIZAN BUILDJNGS, Aptil 10th, and m the gnat fire in Market Street, Muy Ist, 1856, the gen nine HKHUING SAFE preserved the Jewelry of George W. Simm* & Bro.; Books, Papers itc. o( Fisher & Brn. and Edward Setnans & Co., after remaining exposed in the horning ruin* lor nearly Forty Hours, and proving conclu sively what we have always claimed for thein, their great supetioiily over all securi ties known. In these fires, the HERRING'S SAFE, standing side by side with those advertised as "warranted to stand 10 per cent, more fire than Herring's,"came forth the acknowledg ed victor, not only preserving Uieir contents in excellent order, but being themselves in ■ condition to go through another ordeal, while the boasted "Salamanders" of other makers were badly used up in every instance, and i in some cases their entire content* completely destroyed. To the public we would simply say, that,, during the fourteen years of the Herring'# Safe has been before them, more than two hundred have passed through accidental fires without the occutrence of a single loss. We would, therefore, caution purchasers against the misrepresentation of interested parties. The Herring's Patent ia the only Fire-proof Safe made in this oily which is protected by a Patent Right, and we will guarantee it to resist more than double the amount of heat of any other Safe now known.
