CHUBB'S PATENT FIREPROOF WROUGHT-

IRON SAFES, CHESTS, BOXES, & DOORS

THESE Depositories afford complete security to
valuable Property from Depredation or Fire.
They are made in the best manner, and being entirely of
Wrought-iron, combined with effective and well-proved non-
conductors of heat, and secured by Cm vas's Patent. Detector
Locks, will resist Intense Heat, the falling o timbers and
brickwork in case of Fire, or the skill and ce of the most
determined burglar. Their Fireproof ies are well known,
and have been subjected to frequent ere tests.
. .

No instance has been found Nit • they have been in Fires in
which the contents were iniur • Mr. Braidwood, Superinten-
dent of the London Fire B • ade, stated, a few months since,
in a discussion before " Institution of Civil Engineers,"
that in every Fire i hick he had found Safes of Chubb's
manufacture, the 1 ,ks and Papers were Preserved, and that
in nearly all c' . • • where others were used their contents were
destroyed. No iettertestimonial of their safety can be required
than the many thousands which have been in use in various
parts of the world
,for several years and have given complete
satisfaction. _

PATENT DETECTOR LOCKS are made for
every purpose to which a Lock can be applied. They afford
perfect security, and are extremely simple and durable. They
have been characterised by the Comptroller of her Majesty's
Stationery Office, J. It. M'Culloch, Esq., as " the best Locks
made," as will be seen by the following extract from the evi-
dence taken before a recent Select Committee of the House of
Commons :—" It is altered by everybody who knows anything
about the matter, that Chubb's Locks are the best Locks made
now." They are consequently now used in all the Government
Offices.
CHUBB'S PATENT BAR LOCKS form a simple means of
securing the Doors of Warehouses, &c., as they possess great
strength.
CHUBB'S. PATENT LATCHES, for Street Doors, Count-
ing•houses, &c., are perfectly secure against any attempts to
open them by means of false keys or picklocks. The common
Latches, and those called " Patent," in general use, afford not
the slightest safety, but may even be opened by. numbers of
keys dissimilar to their own, and, as an outer door in particular
should be properly secured, CHUBB'S PATENT LATCHES
are strongly recommended as the most effectual means of
safety. They have neat and portable Keys, and are low in
price.
CHUBB'S CASI9IBOXES and JAPANNED DEEDBOXES
are all fitted with the Detector Locks....

ROBERTSON'S SMOKE
APPARATUS

CON. rUMING

AIANUFACTURERS, Iron-F. ..ders, Engineers,
and others desirous of co . Ong with the Sanatory
Regulations of the Board of Hea , may have the SMOKE of
their Furnaces, Ovens, Stoves, ' . EFFECTUALLY CONSUMED,
by the application of ROB ' SON'S PATENT for that pur-
pose.
The fitting-up of the u paratus does not involve the stoppage
of Works during W • KING TIME.
This inventio .as now been before the Public for a con-
siderable peri • . , and it has been publicly tested in London,
(before the Commissioners of Health); in Liverpool, (before a
host of Medical Gentlemen and others connected with Sanatory
Reform); and it is now in operation in MACCLESFIELD (Public
Baths), CHESTER (Public Baths), and in various. Factories in
Glasgow:and Kilmarnock.
Amongst the numerous Testimonials which Mr. R. has re-
ceived, is the following :

"17, Ovington-square, Brompton, Oct. 8, 1849.
"Dear Sir,-1 have no hesitation in saying that your plan for
consuming smoke, which, in company with Mr. Ranger, [Com-
missioner of Public Health], I saw in operation in London, is
applicable to all kinds of steam generating furnaces, steam-
boats, of course, included. Any man's plan may be tampered
with; and neglect or gross carelessness will reduce the best
improvement to nil. But with the most ordinary means and
attention, your appliances will prevent dense smoke; in fact,
almost prevent, at anytime, the slightest appearance of smoke.
I most heartily wish you may meet with the encouragement
your invention deserves.
" I am yours, respectfully,
" ROBERT RAWLINSON.
(Commissioner of Public Health.)
"To J. Robertson, Esq., Liverpool."
The peculiar advantage of this plan is that not only does it
consume the Smoke, but that LESS FUEL is used, Steam more
easily generated, and a greater degree of heat kept up, than by/
any system hitherto in use.
Terms for fitting up the Apparatus are moderate.

THE COMMITTEE of the LIVERPOOL FEMALE
PENITENTIARY gratefully acknowledge the kind inter-
est of the Rev. J. R. Conor, and of those who have so promptly
and generobsly sent Donations and Subscriptions, in answer to
the Circulars lately destributed an behalf of that Charity.
The Institution has existed 173 r nearly Forty Years, during
which time upwards of Fifteen H undred Women have found a
shelter from their wretchedness within its wal large pro-
portion of whom have been restored to r tability and vir-
tue, and many of them brought to re* • ein the pardon of their
sins through the Gospel of Chris
The House in Falkner-stre e ongs to the Institution, is ad-
mirably calculated for t purpose, and can accommodate
Eighty Inmates; bu out two years ago, the Committee
finding their exp ure, though very closely watched, regu-
larly
.exceedin ieir income, and involving them in an in-
creasing deb , were reluctantly compelled to mit the number to
Forty-five.
_ _ .

The painful result has been that poor sorrowing outcasts
have been refused an asylum, and have been forced to return
to their career of sin ; and it is melancholy to reflect on all the
cennsequences of this disappointment to themselves and to
others. _ _ _

The Institution is largely self-supporting; the permanent
income still falls short of the reduced scale of expenditure;
and the debt would now have been a serious one but for the
help o' timely and liberal donations.
An additional Income of 'l5O a year, and Donations for their
present emergencies, would enable the Committee effectually to
extend their operations. They hope the amount will be cheer-
fully supplied, in which hope th3y are encouraged by several
favourable replies to their recent applications.
Communications may be addressed to any of the under-
signed:—

The population has incree.=ed a ast seven-fold since the
erection of the Church, in 18 treets and courts of small
houses now occupy the plac fields and gardens.
It is proposed to buil new Church in that portion of the
Edge-hill district wh' ies between Crown-street and Mason-
street, to contain 0 Sittings, of which 500 will be Free, for
the use of the r, and 100 let at reduced rates.

derable portion of the Land is yet unbuilt upon.

and the Incumbents of St. Mary's and St. Jude's.
The total expense of Land, Building and Endowment will be
.413000.

A Site has been obtained on the east side of Crown-street,
opposite Walnut-street.

for the payment of any Subscription until the sum of £5OOO is
promised.
