Temporary Offices (until Milner's Buildings, Finsbury, are completed)-70, CORNHILL. PROSPECTUS. This Company has been formed to take over the important business of Messre. THOS. MILNER & SON, Holdfast, Fire-Resisting Safe Manufacturers, Phoenix Safe Works, Liverpool, Manchester, London, &c. The present change in the constitution of the business is necessitated by the declining health of the head of the firm, and the growing responsibility attached to a large and increasing trade. The business of Messrs. Thomas Milner & Son has been successfully carried on for nearly a century by the late Mr. Thomas Milner, and by the present senior partner, Mr. William Milner, and by Mr. D. R. Ratcliff. Milner's Safes have an established reputation throughout the commercial world, and the frequent tests to which they have been publicly subjected, together with the hundreds of destructive fires in which their Safes have proved their efficiency, render further comment unnecessary as to their character and repute. The undertaking is in a flourishing condition, and will be taken over as a going concern, in full and profitable work, as from 1st June last. Mr. D. R. Ratcliff, the junior partner of the firm, who has had the active management of the business for the last ten years, will be Managing Director, so that the Company will retain the benefit of his practical experience. Messrs. Thomas Milner & Son transfer to the Company all their interest and property in the extensive Freehold Works and Buildings known as "The Phoenix Safe Works," Liverpool, together with the large Plant and Stock-in-Trade appertaining thereto, a large Freehold Building situate in Finsbury-place, London, and Leasehold Premises in Moorgate-street, London, Market-street, Manchester, and Lord-street, Liverpool, together with the Goodwill, Patents, Trade Marks, and all Interest in Existing Contracts, which are of large extent, and of a highly remunerative character. The Freehold Works known as the "Phoenix Safe Works," Smithdown-road, the Freehold Houses in Aigburth-street, and the Leasehold Premises in Lordstreet, Liverpool, have been valued by Messrs. Thos. Wainwright & Son, of Liverpool; the Freehold Premises in Finsbury, London, have been valued by J. Whichcord, Esq.; and the Leasehold Premises, Market-street, Manchester, have been valued by Messrs. Thomas Acton & Sons, the aggregate valuations amounting to the sum of 47,8177. 108. The fixed and loose plant, machinery, tools, materials, finished and unfinished goods at the Works, have been valued by James Kennedy, Esq., of Liverpool, in the sum of 57,6341. 173. 8d. The Stocks in the hands of the various Agents are to be taken over at cost price. The sum to be paid for patents, goodwill, trade marks, and profit on existing contracts, &c., is 50,000l. The Books have been carefully investigated by Messrs. Sully & Girdlestone, of Gresham House, London, who report that the amount which will be available for dividends, based on the profits, as shown by the Trading Account to 31st December last, will be upwards of 21,000l. per annum. The only contract affecting the Company is one dated the 29th day of July, 1874, and made between William Milner and Daniel Rowlinson Ratcliff, carrying on business under the firm of "Thomas Milner & Son," of the one part, and John Macdonald, as Trustee for the Company, of the other part. The purchase-money is 155,4521. 78. 8d., in addition to 30,2367. 10s. 6d., the cost price of the Stocks in the hands of Agents. The Vendors will take in part payment of the purchase-money 35,000l. in the fully paid-up Shares of the Copies of the contract and valuations can be seen at the Offices of the Company Capital 150,000l., in 15,000 Shares of 101. each. Issue of 10,500 Shares of 107. each. With Power to Issue Debentures to the amount of 70,000l. FORM OF APPLICATION. If more convenient, this Form may be sent by Post to the Bankers with a Crossed Cheque or Post-Office Order made payable to them, in which case the Bankers will return the Receipt to the Applicant.

GENTLEMEN,-Having paid to your credit at your Bankers the sum of Pounds, being 17. per Share on application for Shares of 107. each in MILNER'S SAFE COMPANY (Limited), I hereby agree to accept such Shares, or any less number that you may allot to me, on the conditions stated in the Prospectus, dated the 31st day of July, 1874, and subject to the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that the LISTS of APPLICATION 70, Cornhill, London, E.C., August 5th, 1874. From the TIMES. "Dr. Farrar's qualifications for this great work are in many respects eminent. As a distinguished linguist, he is capable of appreciating, as few men can, the results of textual criticism; as an accomplished scholar, he is familiar with all the illustrations which literary knowledge can bring to bear on the subject; while, as an earnest divine, he is keenly alive to the spiritual significance of the words and deeds he is narrating. .The value of the book, in reference to sceptical objections, will be that it exhibits, in a most favourable form, the aspect which the life of Christ bears when regarded from an orthodox point of view. No thoughtful mind will rise from the perusal of this book without feeling that it reveals a beautiful and an harmonious conception. It will serve to raise the mind from mere objections in detail to a comprehensive view of the whole subject, and it will at the least assist candid objectors to do justice to the Christian tradition.....Dr. Farrar has been able to present, in a more accessible form than before, a combination of the traditional, critical, and philosophical comments which have been made on the narrative...... Dr. Farrar, as we have seen, assumes the usual Christian interpretation, and his book is the most brilliant and learned exposition of it which is accessible to the modern English reader. It is full of passages not merely of beauty, but of nobility of sentiment." From the INQUIRER. "The volumes proceed from a mind of a ripe, erudite scholar -thoughtful, earnest, truthful, and sincere; one, moreover, who, not contenting himself with antiquarian and theological studies of the subject in his own library, has made a personal tour in Palestine in order that correct topography might in some degree aid him in the researches of a history. The value and utility of the book consists chiefly in its descriptions of Oriental scenery, Oriental humanity, customs, habits, manners, personal and social peculiarities of the ancient and modern people within the region of Palestine; but in addition to this general value of the book, there will doubtless be a special theological interest for those sectarians who are particularly anxious that so well-weaponed an antagonist as Dr. Farrar should have an opportunity of overturning the scepticisms of Strauss and Renan, and the doubts of Freethinkers generally. An honourable and gracious peculiarity of these volumes is the utter absence of an uncharitable spirit. The work is admirable in tone and temper throughout......He is a man of very considerable attainments and extensive reading-an elegant writer and a Christian gentleman of refined feelings. Our readers, we hope, will procure the work, and judge of it for themselves." From the LITERARY WORLD. "That a solid and learned, yet eloquent and graphic, summary of the things which are most certainly believed among us concerning the Christ of history, should have had a run greater than any book since Macaulay's History,' is a remarkable fact. We do not say it is impossible that such a book could have been written in France or Germany, and have met with the same reception there, but we think it exceedingly unlikely, and we state this with some knowledge of both countries. The heart of the country is, we should hope, sound on the most vital question of all, or a great publisher would not have given the commission, and a writer of Dr. Farrar's repute would not have given so much time and thought, for the preparation of a work of this kind, at once popular and learned. Its success is the best answer to those who think that a good thing needs the patronage of a religious society to ensure its reception by the public. Every one should read this book. Let us hope that in due time an edition of it may appear divested of its learned notes, and containing only the text, which, with few exceptions, would be understood and enjoyed in every Bible class among us." From the LIVERPOOL MERCURY. "The volumes furnish at once the most scholarly and suggestive contributions to Christology published at least in England for many years. The Master of Marlborough College has spared no labour to arrive at accuracy on every point; and his foot-notes especially, where learning is never paraded, contain a mass of information (sometimes in a single sentence) for which, with weary eyes, one has been accustomed to pore through the three volumes and the small print of Smith's 'Bible Dictionary,' and which alone entitles Dr. Farrar to the best thanks of all Biblical students." " A FEW NOTICES OF THE PRESS. From the DAILY TELEGRAPH. 'Space does not permit us to notice as they deserve the abounding notes which show the brilliant scholarship of their author, and present on almost every page matter for study and reflection to the cultivated reader. Enough if we say that the simple and unlearned Christian will find in this new life of his Master edification and delight; that the sceptic will read it with none the less attention because he and his opinions are treated with chivalrous respect; and that the scholar will give it an honoured place among the works which best elucidate the all-important matters of which it treats." From the STANDARD. "Regard the book from what point of view we may, it stands almost alone as a life of Christ, both in beauty of style and in completeness." From the NONCONFORMIST. "Except in translations from the German, we have no life of Christ which at once embodies the results of modern Biblical science, and commends itself to those who retain a hearty faith in the Gospel Christ came to be and to teach.....It was, therefore, a happy thought which led Messrs. Cassell to resolve on issuing a life of Christ which, while it embraced the most recent discoveries of Biblical science and criticism, should address itself to the general reader, and place them at his command. A scholarly yet popular life of Christ was much wanted by the thousands who teach in our schools, and by the tens of thousands who now read and study the Gospels for themselves. This want has been met, met fully and admirably, by the life now before us. "We take leave to say that it is utterly unjust and unworthy of the Spectator to speak of the book in terms which imply that readers of taste and culture will find it altogether insufferable; and that to speak of it as 'The Life of Christ, by a Special Correspondent of the Daily Telegraph,' is a wanton cruelty, and indicates a personal animus, compared with which any defect of style may be easily pardoned. Nay, more, we have gone carefully through the very passage which the reviewer cites to justify his censure, and we are bound to say that, while there is little in the style of this passage to offend even the most refined taste, there is hardly a sentence in it which has not been suggested by some turn of expression in one of the four Gospels. Even if the style were sensational,' it would not be fair to pass over the skill with which all the details of the scene as recorded or suggested in the Gospels are worked up, and to condemn it as a piece of gushing rhetoric; but as in point of fact the style is hardly more rhetorical than that of the Spectator itself, what are we to think of the critic and of the motive which led him to pen his censure? It is such reviews as this which make us ashamed of our trade, and which have led the public to conclude that they cannot trust what the papers say, but must see a book for themselves before they order it from their booksellers. "Let none of our readers be deterred from ordering it by the outcry which has been raised against it, and is likely to be repeated. They, and especially our ministerial readers, will find in it much instruction and guidance that they will be glad to have, much that will at once define and enlarge their conceptions of the marvellous story narrated in the Gospels." From the NEWCASTLE CHRONICLE. "One knows not which to admire most, the extent of the scholarship exhibited, or the beauty of the style in which the book is written. The two volumes before us are monuments of the erudition and the piety of the learned author." From the LEEDS MERCURY. "One thing that must certainly strike the reader of this book is the scrupulous care with which Mr. Farrar avoids all mere play of fancy and all attempts to varnish the plain Gospel narrative with the mere traditions that have gathered round it, or the ingenious conjectures to which the fertile brains of the early Christians gave such ready birth. He follows in the main the plain unvarnished tale of Scripture, simply illustrating and explaining and enriching from the stores of information he has gathered by travel or by study, and here and there cutting some of the most difficult knots by a dash of sharp common sense.' From the BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEW. "Affluent as has been the Christological literature evoked by Strauss's first 'Leben Jesu,' and manifold as have been its forms, there was room for the kind of biography that Dr. Farrar has here supplied. Discarding all prolegomena, and restricting his collateral matter to notes and an appendix of excursuses of some fifty pages, Dr. Farrar simply tells the great Gospel story, addressing himself to the popular rather than to the learned mind. He is, however, thoroughly qualified by general scholarship and by special study for justifying the conclusions that he reaches and the views that he propounds; so that, while popular in form and eminently readable, his scholarly basis and reasons are adequately indicated either in the inlaying of the text or in the foot-notes." From the HAMPSHIRE INDEPENDENT. "There is one remarkable passage in Dr. Farrar's book (Vol. i. p. 169), in which he treats sceptics in a very different fashion from that to which they have been accustomed at the hands of orthodox divines. He is referring to the various attempts which have been made to explain by natural means the miracle of the conversion of water into wine, and while rejecting them all as inadequate, he protests against the terms of reproach with which the persons who make such attempts are usually branded. He describes such language as appertaining to a 'violent and Pharisaic theology,' and as 'unworthy of that calm charity which should be the fairest fruit of Christian faith.' He adds, 'We as little claim a right to scathe the rejector of miracles by abuse and anathema, as we admit his right to sneer at us for imbecility or hypocrisy.' That passage marks a notable change since the outcry excited by Essays and Reviews.' All true friends of liberality and charity must rejoice to read these words, and all the more as they come from the head master of one of our most rising public schools, and a Queen's chaplain." From the NEW YORK EVENING POST. "We do not believe modern criticism has yet given to us a volume combining so many excellencies of arrangement, grouping, and detail, such accuracy of statement, and such glow of language, such careful and extended research, and such singular grace and beauty of style, as that which lies before us in this work of the Master of Marlborough College." From the CHURCH JOURNAL (New York). "It will, in our opinion, take the place in our day which Jeremy Taylor's 'Life of Christ' filled in his. In scholarship, But it in criticism, in learning it is abreast with our time. stands among modern lives alone for its deep piety, its reverent spirit, and especially its wealth of illustration and splendour of rbetoric. In these last the spirit of the Bishop of Down seems to live again." From HARPER'S WEEKLY. "The unlearned reader will prize it for the clearness and simplicity of the narrative, while the learning and the patient. intelligent spirit of research displayed in the notes, will commend it to the favour of scholars. It is avowedly written from the standpoint of a believer, and while it avoids a controversial tone, its tendency is to counteract the influence of authors like Renan and Strauss."
