ROBBERY AND Fl

Early last year, Messrs. Wm. Watson and Co., (late Watson
11.rothers,) applied to Thos. Milner and Son. to construct for
them one of their strong Holdfast Safes or Chests, to contain
3,000 dol'ars in silver, for its safe convevance over the Tr

ins 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-6r it were ex-
_

hihited at our works, and to several L_ _ r__
with great approval from several our vi__ ~...
tical men, and doubtless wi ein the recollection of the
Public, and we have great asure in announcing that we have
received the followinn• lite and unsolicited note from Mr.
Watson, who haste e given us permission to publish it.
"Derby Buildings, 20th September. 1850.
"Mr. W—TSON presents his compliments to Mr. MILNER,
and has to communicate to him the followine extract of a !rug.,

1 houses, and met

dated the 11th ultimo. from his partner, at Tampico!—
" The Iron Waggon and Safe, (ex Josephine,) with Sixty Bars
of Silver, was attacked by t orty-live 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, and doss you credit, and will, ao
doubt, lead to further orders."

The whole of the outside of this Safe was half inch wrought.
iron, proof against sledge-hammers, chisels, or any other ♦io-
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 w.

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 ever. Its whole operations—from the cutting
up and working of the Wrought-iron Plates and gars, 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.
n.ent of their powerful Hinges, ,Bolts, and impregnable Locks
—altogether are well worthy of the study of the Mechanic and
the Man of Science.

DURABLE OUT-DOOR PAINT,

REMOVED TO 9, GREAT rVINCHENTER-STREET,
OLD BROAD-STREET, NEAR THE ROYAL
EXCHANGE, LONDON.

CARSON'S ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION
PAINT, specially patronised by the British, French, Rus-
sian, and Sicilian Governments, the Hon. East India Company,
the New River Company, the principal Dock Companies, and
other Pdbfic Bodies.

The AVTLCORROSION PAINT has been used by Cue Hon.
Board of Ordnance for upwards of half a century, who have
proved it to prevent rust or corrosion on Iron longer and better
than the very best White Lead or any other description of
Paint ; and in consequence of its possessing this invaluable
quality, ati the Iron Guns and Gun Carriages, both for land
and sea service, have been painted with it for the above period.
It has also been used in great quantities by other public bo-
dies, and by numbers of Gentlemen of the first distinction, to
preserve Wooden Houses, Farm and other Outbuildings, Con-

sent Slating. It will be found a .very superior preservative of
Iron Steam •Boats, Iron Bridges, Piers, or any other extensive
Iron.Worlia.

This Paint is admirably adapted for preventing the decay of
old stoneorbrick Mansions, Churcl ,or other Public Edifices
requiring an effectual defence tio• st-the elements. It is par-
ticularly-recommended to W India and other Colonial Pro-
prietors,Emigrants, and persons connected with the Colo-
nies, whowilbfind it to and all climates better than any other
Paint. The superi yof the Anti-Corrosion to any other
Paint maybe ens' inferred from the simple fact that its use
has been:alway most strenuously opposed by Color Manufac-
turers and others interested in the sale of Common Paint.
Noblemen and Landed Proprietors, anxious to have their
Outbuildings, Sac. praperly preserved, will effect a very consi-
derable saving-by desiring their Stewards to order the Anti-
Corrosion Paint, as any labourer can lay it on, thereby saving
the enormous charges generally made by painters.
The Anti-Corrosion is a powder, and it will keep any length
of time. Colors.: White stone, light stone, drab, or Portland
stone, Bathstone, light and dark yellow stone, light and dark
oak, brown, light and dark lead, light and dark chocolate,

about 6d. per

The Original Anti• Corrosion Paint is only to be obtained of
WALTER CARSON & SON,
(Successors to the Inventors,) No. 9, GREAT WINCHESTER-
STREET, OLD BROAD-STREET, NEAR THE ROYAL
EXCHANGE, LONDON, who will show between 500 and 600

try, and other Influential Persons, who have used the Anti-
Corrosion for many years.

Flatulency, Spasms. Loss of Appetite, Sick Head-ache, Giddi-
ness, Sense of Fulness after meals, Dizziness of the Eyes,
Drowsiness, and Pains in the Stomach and Bowels; Indiges-
tion, producing a Torpid state of the Liver, and a consequent
Inactivity of the Bowels, causing a disorganization of every
function of the frame, will, in this most excellent preparation,
by a little perseverance, be effectually removed. Two or three
doses will convince the afflicted of its salutary effects. The
stomach will speedily regain its strength ' • a healthy action of
the liver, bowels, and kidneys will rapidly take place ; and in-
stead of listlessness, heat, pain, and jaundiced appearance,
strength, activity, and renewed I " lth, will be the quick result
of taking this medicine, accor ng to the directions accompa-
nying each pox.

These Pills are particul y efficacious for Stomach Coughs,
Colds, Agues, Shortnes t Breath, and all Obstructions of the
Urinary Passages ; a ,if taken after too free an indulgence at
table, they quickly store the system to its natural state of
repose.

Persons of eFULL HABIT, who are subject to Head-ache,
Giddiness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from
too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be without
them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off
by their immediate use.

For FEMALES, these Pills are most truly excellent, removing
all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so very prevalent
with the sex ; Depression of Spirits, Dulness of Sight, Nervous
Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin, and
give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion.
To MOTHERS they are confidently recommended as the
best medicine that can be taken during pregnancy ; and for
children of all ages they are unequalled.
As a pleasant, safe, and easy Anerient, they unite the recom-
mendation of a mild operation with the most successful effect,
and require no restraint of diet, or confinement during their
use. By regulating the dose, according to the age and strength
of the patient, they become suitable to every case, in either
sex, that can be required ; and for ELDERLY PEOPLIL they
will be found to be the most comfortable Medicine hitherto
prepared.

ILLUMINATED GLASSES.—We have heard of a perti-
nacious old gentleman who insisted upon adding to the
dignity of his venerable appearance by adopting a pair of
spectacles ; but he failed in procuring glasses clear enough
to answer his purpose, and it was not till the cunning
optician placed a pair of frames instead of spectacles on
his nose that he discovered his pardonable vanity could
not be satisfied without the partial sacrifice of his other-
wise perfect vision. Our attention has been directed to
an improvement which is calculated to remove all objec-
tions to glasses for the eye, both for those who heed them
and those who do not. Mr. Joseph Perks, optician, of
Exchange-street East, has introduced to the public an
illuminating or polishing process, which renders glass
clear and beautifully transparent. Spectacles and all
kinds of magnifying glasses are susceptible of illumina-
tion, and, speaking from experience, we may say from
close inspection, we hail the invention as a new light in
science which must meet with appreciation and encou-
ragement. The cost of the adaptation is trifling ; and
Mr. Perks' charges for new illuminated glasses are rea-
sonable, we may safely say fifty per cent. lower than those
of snore pretending though leis experienced opticians.
