EXTRAORDINARY and SUCCESSFUL RESIST-
ANCE to ROBBERS of MILNER'S "HOLDFAST"
and FIRE RESISTING SAFE.

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
102000 dol'ars in silver, for its safe conveyance over the moun-
tains from the mines to Tampico. The Gentleman writing for
the Safe was at the time lying confined to his bed from a
bullet and two bayonet wounds he had received in an attack of
the Mexican robbers on a valuable convoy, in which the Safe
he then used was broken up and plundered of a large amount
of specie. The Safe and Wagon constructed fo it were ex-
hibited at our works, and to several Liverpoo ses, and met
with great approval from several of our gineers and prac-
tical men, and doubtless will be i e recollection of the
Public, and we have great pleasur ' announcing that we bay.
received the following polite unsolicited note from Mr.
Watson, who has since give s permission to publish it.
"De • Buildings, 20th September, 1850.

The'whole of the outside of this Safe was half-inch wrought-
iron, proof against sledge-hammers, chisels, or any other vio-
lence, and well 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 for a 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•iron Plates and Bars, from the
thickness of a half-crown to that of its diameter, to the
building up of these superb and massive Safes—the filling of
their chambers with the Fire-resisting materials—the arrange-
ment of their powerful Hinges, Bolts, and impregnable Locks
—altogether are well worthy of the study of the Mechanic and
the Max of science.

COCKLE'S PILLS.—Live Well and Be Well._
There is a difference betwixt living " well " stid living

truth is, that in this "go-a-head " age people live a

too " fast ;" and, therefore, we have more " aches and pains,"
more flatulence, irritability, nervousness, despondency,
&c., than were ever known before. Vhile one-half of society.

IMPORTANT TO HOUSEKEEPERS AND
CONSUMERS OP COAL.

TN consequence of the numerous complaints made
-by. the Consumers of Coals respecting short weights, and
the mixture or substitution of inferior Coals for those-of esta-
blished character, the INCE-HALL COAL a CANNEL
COMPANY have determined to supply the P is direct, and
have availed themselves of this opportunit o make a consi-
derable reduction in price, at the same e that a genuine
quality of Coal is guaranteed. The at tion of the Public is
requested to the following scale o rites, which includes
Cartage within the limits of the Bo ugh :

HOUSE CANNEL has been as yet but partially introduced
into consumption in Liverpool, but it is, without exception,
the most brilliant and cheerful Coal that is burnt. It is too
swift to burn alone, !but a few lumps put on the fire in the
evening will be found, tq add materially to the comfort of the
fireside. It burns with a whiteasb.

---i'leAß-LEY MINE has only been recently opened lay. the
Company, but the Coal, from its quality being superior to any
other Coal raised in Lancashire, is rapidly commanding a pre.
ference ; and in the London market ranks with the best hew-
castle Wallsend. It possesses every requisite quality, being
without slack, durable, cheerful, and quite free from dirt. It
burns with a very.small quantity of brown ash, and throws out
no duet. This mine is 414 yards deep.

KING COAL is what hai hitherto-been usually consumed is
Liverpool as best Coal. It burns with a brown ash, and from
its great durability will be found exceedingly economical.
There is no slack in this, and but little dust.

PEMBERTON FOUR FEET is a clear, cheerful Coal, and
unusually large. It burns with a white ash, and emits consi-
derable heat. It is excellently adapted to culinary purposes.
INCE FOUR FEET is similar to Pemberton, but it is slightly
more dusty. It is a valuable Coal for Bakehouses and similar
uses.
