THE STRONGEST SAFEGUARD EXTANT AGAINST ROBBERY AND FIRE. Early last year, Messrs. Wm. Watson and Co., (late Watson Brothers,) applied to Thos. Milner and Son, to construct for them one of their strong Holdfast Safes or chests, to contain 10,000 dol'ars in silver, for its safe conrewinee over the moun tains from the mines to Tampico. TilfGentleman writing fur the Safe was at the time lying,c6nfined to his bed from a bullet and two bayonet woun he had received in an attack of the Mexican robbers on Noble convoy, in which the Safe he then used was brok up and plundered •f a large amount of specie. The Sat nd Wagon constructed for it were ex hibited at our wor s ' and to several Liverpool houses, and met with great appr6Val from several of our engineers and prac tical men and doubtless will be in the recollection of the Public, and we have great pleasure in announcing that we hay* received the following polite and unsolicited note from Mr. Watson, who has since given us permission to publish it. --" Derbg Buildings, 20th September. 1850. "Mr. W.-TSON presents his compliments to Mr. MILNER, and has to communicate to him the following extract of a letter, dated the 11th ultimo. from his partner, at Tampico : " The Iron Waggon and Safe, (ex Josephine,) with Sixty Bars of Silver, was attacked by Forty-five Robbers, between Catore and San Luis Potosi. and they worked twelve hours to open the Chest, and did not succeed ; meantime assistance came from San Luis Potosi. "This is very satisfactory, doubt, lead t° further orders.' The whole-of the outside of this Safe was half inch wrought iron, proof against sledge-hammers, chisels, or any other •vio lence, andweli it did its duty. We have at this time a number of large Banker's and Merchant's Safes in course of construc tion—one fora Diamond Merchant in London—of which we invite the attention of the Public. Our Works are the most extensive and complete of their class in the world, employing more experienced Workmen (upwards of 100, assisted by the most approved and powerful machinery) than all the Safe makers in England together —a Lancashire Workshop well worth looking over. Its whole operations—from the cutting up and working of the Wrought•iton Plates and Bars, from the thickness of a half-crown to that of its diameter, to the building up of these superb and rnassi . ;'e Safes—the filling of their chambers with the Fire-resisting materials—the arrange. ment of their powerful Hinges, Bolts, and il-npregnable Locks ....altogether are well worthy of the study of the Mechanic and the Wan of science. id does you credit, and will, no THOS.

" SIR,—I am a poor British seaman, and have been an un fortunate cripple from that dreadful malady, rheumatic gout, •r inflammatory rheumatism, all over my frame, for the last ten years, entirely unable to provide for myself or family. I have been discharged from St. Bartholomew's Hospital as in. curable, and given up by the Doctors of the Royal Dispensary in Aldersgate street. For the last fifteen months I have been confined to my bed, unable to put my foot to the ground. In this truly miserable condition, I read a Pamphlet on the medi cal virtues of CGLE'S A LGA MARINA, a Concentrated Essence of the Sea-weed, and was strongly recommended by a number of persons to make trial of the same. I now beg leave respect fully to inform you that your ALGA MARINA is worth its weight in gold ! I assure you, sir, that it has made a new man of me already. I can now sit up and take my food with com fort, which I have not been able to do for many months before and I can again stand upon my feet, whereas, before, I did no dare to set my foot to the floor for pain. I rub the whole of my frame with the ALGA MARINA, and I cannot describe the comfort that I feel from it after well rubbing. I feel confident that it will soon restore me entirely to health again.

SUSPECTED MURDER.—On Tuesday, an inquest was held on the body of a man found floating in the mid channel of the Thames, off Woolwich. The right leg was broken, and there were three wounds on the head, which reached the bone. The immediate cause of death was drowning, but it was deposed by a surgeon that the wounds were inflicted before death. The body was not identified, and the jury returned an open verdict.

A lecture was delivered last evening at the Concert hall, Lord Nelson-street, on the above subject, by the Rev. F. Clos3, of Cheltenham. The lecture was the fifth of the series now in course of delivery under the auspices of that young but eminently useful society, the " Liverpool Church of England Institution." The spacious hall was densely crowded in every part by a most respectable and intelligent auditory, and great num bers bad to retire unable to gain admission into the room. The chair was occupied by Samuel Holme, Esq., and the platform was crowded by the clergy and inttuential laity. Among others we noticed the Rev. Dr. M•Neile, Rev. F. Parry, &c., &c. The CHAIRMAN, preparatively to introducing the busi ness of the evening, said—" In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct thy steps," was the command of Him in whom we lived, and whom, he hoped, we served ; and, therefore, in accordance with the command of our God, he called upon their clerical secretary (the Rev. Mr. Mosse) to commence the proceedings with prayer. A suitable prayer having been offered up, Mr. Homan again rose. He said, under ordinary cir cumstances he should not have ventured to have intruded upon their time by any remarks cf his own, but would at once have introduced the eminent clergyman who was to address them ; but upon the present occasion, when the country was convulsed from end to end, upon a subject which so intimately touched upon our civil and religious liberties, they would forgive him if he ventured to call attention to one or two points of paramount importance, in connection with the all-important subject upon which they had assembled. The lecture to be delivered was to contrast the difference between the Protestant and Popish missions, and he thought he should scarcely be doing his duty, in the position he had undertaken, if he did not state, before its commencement, one or two matters in connection with the subject. The first thing to which their attention must be directed, would probably be the privileges and opportunities England possessed for carry ing the gospel of our Lord and Saviour to every climeand of England, and what were our individual respon sibilities in reference to our own population. to the masses of the population in Ireland, and to all the countries with" which, as a commercial nation, we had intercourse. When he reflected upon our colonies, spread over almost every portion of the globe—that our Queen reigned over three millions of the human race upon whom the sun never set,—for we held commer- cial treaties with almost every ~entry under heaven, 7 —when he reflected that our ships unfurled their flags in -every region, —that we had an amount of wealth never before bestowed upon any nation,—that we possessed opportunities never before enjoyed by any peo ple,—that we live under equitable laws, which gave pro tection to the peasant as well as to the prince, to the poorest as well as to the highest and noblest born, — when he looked at our science and mechanical skill, civilized c, at our iron mines our coal mines, wi ch furnished us with the material to over, to annihilate distance upon land as well as at va; when he found God had permitted us,—and he attri buted these endowments not to secondary ( (great cheering)—but to Him who was the a all science and of all philosophy—when we coul i commu nicate intelligence by electricity—when we were printing by steam—when we saw all those wonders which the science of man, permitted by God—(hear, bear) — made applicable to the uses of man—a duty rested upon us, as Christian men, to communicate those pri vileges and blessings to every human being. (Cheers.) But we possessed more than these ; we had the word of the Eternal God, that ward which could make men wise unto salvation, if they would only believe it ; we had scriptural education spreading amongst;us—and he hoped it would - 'Loud cheers.) Education, without spread scripture, might make men intellectual, but it would never make them christians. (Cheers.) He complained that those who looked upon man as an intellectual being, forgot his immortality. Against such a standard of edu cation as a christian man, he publicly protested. He rejoiced that he was a member of that glorious church which had ever been a missionary church, and every church to be a missionary church, must be so abroad as well as at home. It had been found in practice, that those, generally speaking, who were most inclined to Christian missions abroad were the best Christian mis sionaries'at home. (Cheers.) They were called together to night to contrast the Missionary Church of England and of Rome. The Church of England was for circulating the Bible, but the CLurch of Rome sent forth missions for the purpose of quenching the light of the scriptures, for the purpose of contravening the command of God,—" Search the Scriptures." The Church of Rome, by her Pope and by her canons, taught the reverse of this, therefor( - was an anti-christian church —the one propagated the word of God, the other tried to quench it. (Applause.) Let them not deceive themselves. They were living in a period when they must work, when every one must carry forth all the interest he possessed, for spread ing the truth of God and for dispelling Papal error. A conflict was about shortly to take place, which, if he mistook not, would convulse our institutions to their foundations. The sacerdotal power of Rome aimed at the subversion of the Church of England, and an attempt was being made—not by the Pope, for he was a puppet in the hands of his priests and cardinals ; a poor weak old man, who had abdicated his throne, and who was now kept on it but by the power of foreign bayonets—to sub vert England by an organised sacerdotal army scattered through every land—knowing that if they accomplished this the world . would be at their feet. The Pope had been urged to an ad which no Papal country would submit to. (Cheers.) He would not be prevented here from stating that which he had stated in other places relative to the fatal bill of 1829 (cheers),—a bill against which, at the time, in his humble way, he protested, and against jet' he now, wore strontrly than ever, protested (cheers). That bill had given to the Pope a power in Protestant England, which, had Englishmen been wise, he never would have been permitted to have harvested (cheers). If she were wise now, and if they valued their civil and religious liberties, they would protest against the milk. and-water policy of the present Government,—they would interfere to put a stop to that policy (cheers). He had seen her Majesty go to open her Parliament in state, and his heart shrank wi the Duke of Norfolk, fa fast bound in the fetters of Popery ; and the speec It'which had been put into the mouth of her Majesty was just such a one as he had expected. (Hear, hear.) The people of England must interfere—at once interfere—for if they did not they might rest assured we should be made to feel, as a nation, for our departure from the principles of our God and of his Gospel. (Applause.) He called upon them to study this great question well, to be determined to maintain our Protestant institutions. (Cheers.) I: it were only for the sake of our Roman Catholic fellow-countrymen, it was our duty to do so. The Roman Catholic possessed no civil liberty in Rome. Wiseman had denounced the slums of Westminster, but if there was a de based population anywhere it was in the city of Rome, where . . the Pdpe'reigned in his palace (Applause.) them tb I to do penance, though not in gs.

Mr. Holme then analyzed the speeches made at the late Roman Catholic meeting at the Music-hall, in order, he said, to give his audience some faint idea of what was in store for them if Popery should become triumphant. After having, at very considerable length, reduced thes e ora ti ons i n t o mince -meat, lie said he had given them quotations from speeches, not of a distant date, but words uttered not ten days ago, and these might be taken as fair specimens of what would be the -case should the Papists ever again achieve the ascendancy. Before he sat down he called upon them to do this,—to be determined to value their privileges, and at all costs to maintain them,—to continue these spiritual privileges to our own population, to our sister country Ireland, to our colonies, and to the world at large. (Cheers.) Mr. Holme, after some further remarks, introduced the lecturer, and sat down amidst great cheering. The Rev. Mr. CLOSE commenced by saying, that when he received an invitation from_ the secretary of the society to de- liver a lecture, his first feeling was to decline, for he was the minister of a very large parish ; and besides, when he consi dered the names of some of the clergymen in this town, he thought his coming to Liverpool to deliver a lecture on Popery, was very . much like bringing coals to Newcastle ; however, he had . given his consent, anu would at once go back to three centuries ago. Just as the Reformation was hurling back her superstitions upon Rome, she was enabled to make such tin effort as shamed all the combined efforts of Protestantism. The lecturer then went on to state, that a about the period he referred to. two great men met at Paris, 'elegraA com.p-any attention to the commercial can. and the more efficiently to carry out the same, they repurchased several of the lines they had previously sold—among others, the Eastern Comities, which now pays them a rental of £2,000 a year for the wires they retain.

Several other gentlemen commented upon the expen siveness of telegraphing in England, under the present monopoly, as compared with the cost in America, one of whom stated that. for 265., he had, during the excite ment in the cotton market in this country, forwarded an important communication by the mail steamer to Boston, and thence to New Orleans, and received a reply in time for the next steamer to this country, the tell upc;ti I messafe consisting of _forty-five words, whilst he had and back. \lr. Sansom next read a long and learner paper on mosses, as newly classed by a German botanist and a discussion ensued, which was proceeding when ou reporter was compelled to leave. The Gateshead Observer says that building of iron ships upon the Tyne is likely to increase to a considerable extent. Messrs. Coutts and Parkinson are laying down the keel of another iron vessel, of about 1000 tons register, intended for the Calcutta trade. This makes the third iron East Indiaman, of the largest class, progressing at the same time in their yard.

Shuttleworth put up to auction, at the Auction Mart, the perpetual right of presentation to the rectories of St. Brooke and St. Evans, situated in the diocese of Exeter and archdeaconry of Cornwail, in the county town of Bodmin. The gross annual rent-charge of the former in lieu of tithes amounted to £961, but which, including the glebe, and deducting rates and taxes, was estimated at about £lOOO per annum. The parish contained about 1730 inhabitants, and the incumbent was 63 years of age. ,er rectory Tins was Knocked ( estimated at £470 per annum, and the incumbent N under the reserved price. OPINIONS or LORD JOHN RUSSELL'S PAPAL SURE. — Nearly all the London papers are unanimous i condemning this measure as abortive and practically useless. Even the Times does not consider it " adeouate to. the emergency," and the Herald is strong in its con demnation. The John Bull says,—" We can attach but little value to Lord John's additional prohibition of all territorial titles whatsoever, if the enforcement of it is still to remain optional with the executive government. Such a provision, to be effectual, ought to be so framed as to place it out of the power of a pro-Popish Govern ment, like that of the noble lord, to give the law of the land the go-by in favour of their Popish proteges, in con sideration of political services to be rendered by them in return, with a view to the maintenance in power of the pro-Popish faction."

A numerous Provisional Committee, core ptising all the literati of die town, has been organised. a - soldier of two, with seven young men, made a vow, and dedicated themselves to the church. They were the founders of of the Jesuits. Mr. Close then went on to chew how the new missionaries succeeded; their success was in a great measure attributable to the fact of the various powers being Roman Ca tholic; he was ready to do homage to their honesty and de votedness: they went not forth as the modern priests to dis turb a Christian Church ; they went forth into the fastnesses of darkness and ignorance; they went to North America and Central America. He pointed to the map to shew the immense extent of the Catholic missions. As to their devotedness, he held a book and pointed to Caln's Lives of the Missionaries; it was a romantic work, he considered, but the reader must regret they had not more light; if they had possessed this, they must have been the regenerators of the world. He told them that the Catholicism of Canada was the result of the missionary efforts of a number of ladies of Paris, and he should like to ask how many Protestant ladies of Liverpool would be prepared to go forth as these Parisian ladies had to brave all the various hardships of a missionary life. Three hundred years ago, Xavier landed in Japan: in thirty years from that time the Japanese bad embraced Christianity. At that time Japan was governed by three kings; these powers sent ambassadors to do homage to the Pope, who was consoling himself for the loss of Europe by the prospect of gaining Asia. It was calculated that 400,020 peOple 1 - ad einbraced the Homan Catholic religion. These ambassadors took three years to go to Rome; and before their return there had been an insurrec tion, and exactly one hundred years after the period of their conversion this remarkable fact happened, that the last Chris tian was massacred ; the country returned to their heathenism. The lecturer went on to say, that notwithstanding' what was asserted of the peat extent of the Popish missions, lie unhesi tatingly declared these missions were a great failure. Having given the ancient Roman Catholic missionaries credit for ho nesty and devotedness, he proceeded to account for the failure of their exertions. It was because they one and all corrupted Scripture; they had never translated the Bible into any one of the languages of the various nat:ous to which they carried their faith. (Hear.) He defied them to deny this. Xavier landed at Corumandu, and, according to his own account, in one month he baptised 10.000 people. How he effected this was going about witn a bell, and cryin^ - " Ave Maria," " Sal ve Regina," and the like. Now, he would ask what moral result could be expected from such conversions? One of the inci- - dents in Cain's work was, that once a crab came out of the sea, and presented to Xavier a wooden cross which he had lost some time before. Now, he (Mr. Close) thought, that if Ca ln could tell them seriously of a crab carrying a crucifix through the water, he was quite capable of adding a fewcyphers to the end of his account of the converts. Mr. Close proceeded to quote other . passages from the works of the ancient mis s ionaries, eluciaatory of the romance, imagination, and genius of the writers, and, at the same time, their undoubted idolatry in the worship of the Virgin Mary, the Queen of Heaven. A scene Nuts given among the American Indians. They were great gourmands, and did not like fasting; but the missionary stated that he had the consolation to see five hundred Indians in the.eburch on Good Friday scourging themselves in honour of our sesionr,•and a number of them were suspended on crucifixes. Now, lie asked if this were religion? (Hear, bear.) We isactedt not sconrwinst nor pen'inee. for the atone of t h e m e , g i Jria6 Christ itar; Xll - dutnsicftt, Elie r, hear.) But this he had never read in any of the missionaries. A similar scene of blood was related by Xavier as occurring in Japan ; and he asked if this was not as bad as the heathens mentioned in the Bible as cutting themselves with knives until they bled. al r. Close went on to state that the Roman missions had failed because they did not teach the Scriptures. With reference to the Protestant missions, he would tell them that the Protestant missionaries, whether of the Church of England or dissent, went forth under the frowns of the state ; they went forth unprotected, save by the power of the name of Jesus Christ; no power but the hidden power that lies in that sacred name. (Hear.) But he would ask how it was that we had allowed Rome to precede us by three centuries in the mission ary field? The answer was to be found in the history of our with our struggles at home to think of foreign missions. 9e ise al of them to consult their history from the pe- had omitted white shirt I Separal MEETIIs he vo f whic have been liniited 1 Benares Suga rdav o 113 baL £6 new pref ern and Wei of lector the intei lity, and piactic ucti powers and specially so in t to the commands of the Pope—to the exemptions vi ised to recompense for the .ntiation and such inferior to that of God.
