Messrs, S. and B. SOLOMONS, Opticians and Aurists, during a professional experience of thirty years, have had ample opi.ortu nities of verifying that the Organs of Sight and Hearing are sym pathetically related to each other in such a peculiar manner, that when the farmer becomes imperfect, the sense of hearing becomes rapidly dull—this fact is admitted by Scientific Authorities, and must be observable by many thousands of individuals thus circum ' stanced—which is deserving the Public's most serious attention. The Messrs. Soloosons, with a view to remedy such an affection, and after they have devoted their whole lives to this interesting branch of science, have succeeed in effecting, for Imperfect Vision, a most sc i en tifi c improvement ' in a Transparency for Spectacles, and a Pre ventive and Cure for Deafness ; they have invented an Operative Voice Conductor, upon a very small construction, not perceptible; it requires no holding, and the individual immediately becomes one of the party in the general conversation. By these important disco veries not only is defective Vision brought to nature, but the sense of Hearing restored to its original acuteness ; those lenses are so constructed and adapted to weak and imperfect eyesight, upon such scientific principles, combined with the long extensive experience of the Messrs. Solomons, that they will be found to effect an extent of relief which will far exceed their utmost and twilit san guine expectations. On placing those lenses before imperfect Vision, either by -slay or candle light, every object becomes clear and dis tinct, and the most minute particle seen with exact distinctness. The Messrs. Solomons have in their possession, .WITHOUT ONE EXCEPTION, Spectacles and Ear liistruments of every kind, which are offered to the Public by other individuals, to point out the su periority of their improvements over all others. The patronage of Nobility and Gentry, and recommendationsof the principal Oculists, Physicians, and Surgeons in London, and through Great. Britain, as well as on the Continent, would . be too numerous for insertion. . Ihe "Messrs. Solomons are anxious that the public should not eon. found them with persons of the ; same nante, it being admitted by professional gentlemen of the highest character, and may be ob served by any individual, that their newly-invented Spectacles and operati ve Voice Conductors for deafness, surpass anything of the kind yet put heforethe public, they request attention to the first part of their names and address, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, and Cheapside.

STOVE ON PRINCIPLES ENTIRELY NEW, AND UNEQUALLED FOR COMFORT AND ECONOMY. • By her Majesty's Royal - Letters Patent. THE CHUNK PATENT STOVE, .• invented by Mr. R. PROSSER, Civil Engineer, is distin guished from all ethers by its entire freedom from dust or smoke, its great economy of fuel, and its perfect safety from fire. It has been a source of great comfort in the nursery and oed-room of he invalid, affording an uniform temperature through the day and night, with only one supply, while the most delicate test cannot detect anything arising from its use which is injurious to health—it merely warms the air without decomposing it ; and, as there is no door, none of the gases generated by combustion can pass into the apartment. Wherever warmth is required, this Stove is applicable. It is as desirable for the drawing-room as the laundry ; for warming greenhouses it possesses extraordinary claims, the very great expense of building flues, and afterwards the immense con sumption of fu.l, being avoided. For workshops and ships' cabins it is invaluable ; it requires attention only once in twenty-four hours, during which time the cost will not exceed twopence. Price, Plain, 31. ; Fluted, 3/. lOs.

It having been represented to Rippen and Burton that the Chunk Patent Stove has been fixed with piping improperly made, and without sand for the Fire Pail to stand upon, in the inner circle of the bottom, R. and B. feel it necessary to state, that. unless their printed directions (which are very short) are in every respect attended to, the action of the Stove will be much injured, if not siestroyed. 12, Wells-street, Oxford-street.

CREED, Secretary. DRUNKENNESS AND SUICIDE.—Alonday an inquest was held before Mr. Wakley, at the Victory, Newman-street, Edgware-road, on the body of Francis. Richards, aged 48, a coach painter. It appeared that on Friday night lastathe deceased left his home whilst under the influence of intoxication, and returned in a short time with a cup containing some ; laudanum, which he had procured from a chemist's in the neighbourhood. On returning with, the lauda na n) he asked his daughter to smell it ; she did so, and thought it was rum. The deceased then drank the contents of the cup, and ; said it was laudanum, but subsequentlY denied that suCh was with the usual symptoms of the case. He was seized drowsiness and heavy slumber, and in that state was placed in bed b 3 his wife , under th e supposition that it was merely the effect of intoxication. In the morning deceased had been out of he was found dead. The work ten months. He w as much addi c t e d t o d r i n king, and whilst in that state became a perfect madman. He had frequently threatened t o hang hi mse lf, and wished his family dead. The surgeon who was called in gave it as his opinion that the deceased had died from the effects of laudanum, probably aceerated by spirits previously taken. Verdict," Temporary Insanity."

His Lordship, we are InforTned, has expressed himself 4o the effect that it was h farce for ministers of the esta blishment to pretend_ that they did not recognize the law of the State, whe':, it was notorious that they never ho sitated to reseirt to that law to obtain augmentations of their stlP:Aids.—Aberdeen Herald.

UMBRELLA FOR THE QUEEN.—We have been highly gratified by an inspection of the umbrella that has been in preparation, and is now nearly com pleted, by Mr. Samuel Stears, of this town. The cover is of the very best rich white satin, the stick a Pastriza cane ; the hand part is beautifully carved pearl, with gold eyes. The top, which is in the form of a *rown, is of the finest chased solid gold, with a beautiful silver string and two tassels in the form of English acorns. The slide and other inner parts are of silver. The case for the reception of the umbrella is lined with rich crimson velvet, and is covered with scarlet morocco leather. Altogether the appearance is most chaste and elegant Leeds Intelligencer.
