BURGLARIES

AND
CHUBB'S LOCKS AND SAFES.
ON the night of January 31st, a desperate attempt
was made upon the Dundee Bank by a set of accom-
plished thieves. An iron door, secured by CHUBB'S PATENT
Locx, was the principal object of attack; and the burglars,
having exhausted their skill in trying to pick bilis lock, endea-
voured ineffectually to destroy it by drilling. After some
hours' work, they were alarmed, and made a precipitate re-
treat, leaving all their instruments behind them. On the
previous evening, the warehouse of Mr. Clarke, of Cross-st.,
Manchester, was broken into. The thieves picked eight locks
of the ordinary kind, and then, having unsuccessfully endea-
voured to pick the Detector Lock on a Chubb's Fireproof Safe,
they tried to force it open without avail. This is the second
time this Safe has resisted the atta irfliurglars.
CHUBB and Sox would fur r add, that their Locks and
Safes have now been used more than 30 years by Bankers
and Merchants, the G • nments of this and other countries,
and by many hun sof thousands of individuals; and no
instance has e • occurred of any robbery having taken place
through tl ' ocks having been picked, nor have the contents
of any ieir Safes ever been destroyed by fire.
Lists of prices, and full particulars of recent tests, to be had

11-)LAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS.
I) The following testimonial is another proof [of the great
efficacy of this medicine :

" 157, New Bond-street, London, Oct. 12th, 1850.
" Sir,—ln acquainting you with the great benefit which I
have experienced by taking Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills,
I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the
public who may be similarly afflicted. About twenty years
since I was first attacked by Rheumatic ut in my bands and
feet. I had previously been subject o every variety of cli-
mate, having served in Canada i to 19th Dragoons, and in
Spain, under Sir John Moore, i ie 18th Hussars. I always
procured the best medical ai , ut without obtaining any es-
sential relief, and my s rings can be appreciated only by
those who know Barnet gof this disease. It was during one
of those paroxysms etween twelve and thirteen years ago,
that I was recom ended to try Blair's Pills. I lost no time in
procuring a box, and before I had taken that quantity the pain
had entirely ceased, and in a few days I was in perfect health.
From that moment whenever I feel any symptom of the disease
approaching, I have instant recourse to this Medicine, which
to me is so valuable that were it not that the days of magic
have ceased, I should certainly attribute the relief I obtain to
that cause. Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health hes not
in any degree suffered, but on the contrary I believe the ten-
dency of Blair's Pills is towards its improvement. I have
recommended the Pills to many friends, and the result has
always been of the most gratifying character.---I am. sir. yours
respectfully, " GARRET FOSTER GILL.
" To Mr. Prout. 229, strand."
For Gout, Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica, Tic-Doloreux
pains in the head and face, and all analogous complaints, it is
a sovereign remedy; and the speedy relief afforded in this in-
stance is parallel with the testimonials of the late Rev. Dr.
Blomberg, of Misperton Hall. Rector of Cripplegate, London,
and Chaplain to his Majesty William the Fourth ; John Molard
Wheeler, Esq., of Jamaica, transmitted by his brother at
Swindon; John James Giles, Esq., Frimley, Surrey; R. Man,.
dell, Esq., Coroner, Doncaster; Mr. Courtney, Barton Stacey,
Hants; Mr. Cosher, Beaconsfield ; Mr. Yates, traveller to
Messrs. Day and Martin, London ; Mr. Nasmytb, 208, Picca-
dilly, London ; Mr. Dixon and Mr. Blake, Kingscliffe, North-
amptonshire; and that extraordinary case.of Lieut. Masters, of
the Veteran Natallion, Newfoundland ; and manyothers whose 1
mullein-sr cases have been already published, and were given
unsolicited to assure sufferers by Gout, Rheumatism, &c., that
speedy relief may be obtained by taking this Medicine.

The resp -
ectability of FLAIR'S PILLS rests in a great degree
upon the truth of Its testioonials, and the strictest inquiry is
solicited into ail that has been published, -
