THE BEDFORD HOTEL, BRIGHTON,

47

is advantageously placed on the West Cliff, centrally with regard to objects interesting to Visitors, yet removed from the bustle of the town.

MR. JOSEPH ELLIS,-formerly associated with his Father, at the Star and Garter, Richmond Hill,-has for some years devoted his attention to the regulation of this Hotel. By considerable outlay and careful organization, he has sought to make it equal to the requirements of the present time. The Coffee-room is spacious and apart. Sea-water service fresh with the tide.

HARVEY'S FISH SAUCE.

E. LAZENBY AND SON having numerous Complaints from Families

who are imposed upon by Spurious Imitations of their HARVEY'S FISH SAUCE, request Purchasers to observe that each bottle of the genuine article bears the name of WILLIAM LAZENBY' on the back, in addition to the front label used so many years, and signed' ELIZABETH LAZENBY.'

E. LAZENBY AND SON'S ESSENCE of ANCHOVIES continues to be prepared with that peculiar care which has rendered it so justly admired as Sauce for Salmon, Turbot, Cod, Soles, Eels, &c., and is manufactured only at their old-established Fish-Sauce Warehouse, 6, EDWARDS STREET, PORTMAN SQUARE, LONDON.

CHUBB'S FIRE-PROOF SAFES.-Wolverhampton, November 28th,

1857. Messrs. Chubb and Son.-Gentlemen,-We cannot permit any time to elapse without again addressing you in expression of our opinion of the great value of your fireproof safes. In addition to the one in which our merchants' ledgers and other documents were preserved, we had another, which stood in the centre of our warehouse. This safe was exposed to the most intense heat for three days and nights; and when the beams in the first instance gave way, it fell with the burning mass through two stories (quite 30 feet), and was buried in the consuming material. We were unable to get at it till three days afterwards, and on opening it yesterday, although the exterior body had been evidently red-hot, the papers it contained were not even singed. We may add that the locks were uninjured, as also the safe. Several gentlemen present on the opening expressed their surprise at this remarkable proof of the security of your fireproof safes. We are, dear sirs, yours most respectfully,-GRIFFIN, MORRIS, AND GRIFFIN. Messrs. CHUBB and SON, 57, ST. PAUL'S CHURCHYARD, LONDON. Full Illustrated Price Lists sent on application.

The existence of this Institution now extends over a period of many years, and each succeeding year has added new triumphs to those achieved before. Its blessings are not confined to its operations within its own sphere; the idea once started into life speedily found its admirers all over the country, and gave rise to a large number of similar institutions, not only in this city and country but in England, Ireland, and America; and with all this rivalry and competition the Scottish Institution for the education of young ladies still maintains its proud and eminent position. The gentlemen who are here engaged in tuition stand first and foremost among their brethren in this city. The Directors, who are themselves practical educationists of the highest reputation, not only superintend the institution, but are themselves engaged in teaching the most important branches, and select for their coadjutors the most competent persons that the country furnishes. I am sure I need only mention the names of the Directors, my friends Dr. Graham, Dr. Dubuc, Mr. Rampini, Mr. Hargitt, and Mr. Simson-names familiar to us all as "household words "-to inspire you with perfect confidence in the system of education adopted in the Institution.-Extract from the Address of DR. SCHMITZ, Rector of the High School, at the Annual

Examination.

CARSON'S

ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION PAINT,
Specially patronised by the British and other Governments,
THE HON. EAST INDIA COMPANY,

THE PRINCIPAL DOCK COMPANIES, AND OTHER PUBLIC BODIES, &c., Is particularly recommended to the Nobility, Gentry, Agriculturists, Manufacturers, West India Proprietors, and others, it having been proved by the practical test of more than seventy years to surpass all other paints as an out-door preservative. It is extensively used for the protection of wooden houses, farm and other out-buildings, farming implements, conservatories, park paling, gates, iron railings, iron hurdles, copper, lead, brick, stone, old compo, and stucco fronts, and tiles to represent slating. The superiority of the ANTI-CORROSION to every other Paint for out-door purposes may be easily inferred from the simple fact that its use has been always most strenuously opposed by Colour Manufacturers, Painters, Oil and Colourmen, and others interested in the sale of common Paints. It is also very economical, any labourer being able to lay it on.

In Casks of 28, 56, and 112 lbs. each and upwards.
