In order to make a thoroughly good and complete telescope, we must be intimately acquainted with the various foci at which light is refracted, and the forms of lenses, in the mi nutest detail. The perfection of the telescope. or microscope will very much depend upon the quantity of light that can be admitted, so as to fall upon the place where the image will be repeated. It we augment the, diatneter of the great glass of the telescope we shall be compelled to use a very long, unwieldy, arid, perhaps, u nmanageable tube, so that we are restricted in thd"sizteof the object, because a large glass will require a large tube. There j 5 unequal refraction in different parts of a lens. The principal focus of a lens is at an equal distance front the centre of toe ,glass as the I adius its curvature. This applies to crown gloss only—with other kinds of glass and substances we shell find a considerable difference. All the ray s, h owever, will not Concentrate- tille - foctisesorne fall short of it and others exceed it, fur a lens may be regarded as being made of a tri angular prism, which revolves round a central point. This difference in the focus of the different rays increases with the thiekriess of the • lens, This phenomenon is 'called spherical anerrie ion—the wandering of tae rays in passing through and not meeting at the •one principal point. As spherical aberra Lion increases with time thickoesteof the glass, it follows that the object glasses of telescopes will be deteriorated as they in crease in thickness, uutil at length we shotild see nothing thrimgh them This spherical aberration will vary according to the kind of a lens which is turned towards an object, • A plano-chnvex lens will,eruduce considerably , less aberration if its convex sur face be turned towards the rays of light, than if its flat side were, therefore, wherever this descriptionof a lens is used, care should be taken to arrange it in that manner. In the telescor the convex surface is directed from the eye, and in the micro scope towards it, those being the respective directions in which the 'rays of light fail on these instruments. When lenses of telescopes ate made of glass alone, they are called refracting telescopes, but we can produce telescopes with reflecting lenses as well as with retracting once, and they are thertecmilied 'refleetine telescopesealthougfe refracting lenses should be used in their construction. If a mirror he held up beforC a distant tower we - should have an image of a tower formed to-sr us. Telescopes are constructed on this principle with Mirrors. One of the most celebrated is t h e g reat Gre gorian teteeeope consisting of two polished mirrors (conitAesed of specula metal) mind two lenses. The rays of the object are reflected freer a lergerlens upon a smaller one, plicedopposite to its centre, and by that' through a hole in the centre of the largenmirroteethrOnkli a 'double - convex glasS to the eye glass. It might he seppoSed that the rays of - nit object would be inter cepted or distorted by the' small mirror in the centre, but the only difference is, as reneeeked in the last lecture, In the in teneity - of -the light. In. Herschel's gigantic telescope there is hut one mirror, and the spectator is obliged to turn his back towards the object when he v i ews it. The reflector is four feet in diameter, and the image is thrown hack to the mouth of the tube, to which a small sliding tube is connected, so as to bear urn the image. 'All reflebtors hove spherical Aberration. The pa ab lie reflector is the best form fur telescopes, and the ellip tic-:l one for microscopes, in which act rors may also be advan tageously used. We require some additions, to telescopes and microscopes to enable us to measurethe length of a mite or the diameter of the situ, morl,. '&.c. • These additions .to It e jnstrument, when made fur accurate purposes, are called micrometers. A micro meter for the micreecepe will vary very touch. A plate of OAS% has three divisiOns• upon it, rack divided into very tine lines, ex ceedingly near together. Itm one division they are the one hundredth of an . biter asunder, in another one- fi ve - hundredth; and in a third one thousandth. These lines are drawn hyena chines for .the purpose. The lioeS are intersected at right angles by an equal number of lines. This micrometer is put at the focal distance of the glass, at the place where the image of time mite is formed, and then the lines will be , magnified in the seine .proportion a' the tillage. Suppose, then, that the image should occupy the length between any two lines, and suppose thete Hoes are-the one hundredth of an inch in width, we say at. once that the creature is one-hundredth of an inch long, and so on. With telescopes we want to measure the diameter of an heavenly body, and it requires very nice management in order tei do so. In adiltion to the telescope, a micrometer is ap plied which can be thrust through the eye part, and placed in the focal point of the eye glass. It consists of three wires, two of which are parallel and 'twee, arid the other et right angles to them and a fixture. The screws which regulate the motion of these wires have very tine threads, perferming twenty revolu tions;in one inch. The head of the screw is likewise divided into I2o.dote or equal parts, so that we have the means of di viding one itch into 2400 parts, and by a careful use of the in strument we may bring a star's disc within the wires, and in that manner determine its diameter. %Viten an aperture is made in the shutter of a window, and the light reflected from trees and other external scenery is al lowed to pass through it totem a dark room, pictures of the dif ferent bodies without will he found upon the walls of the room. This produces a earners obscure in the most simple way. If there are two apertures in the shutter two. sets of images will be produced, if three an equal number, and so on. • But if- the aperture orerpertures be large, the effect will not be produced. By the application of this, somewhat artificially, they have pro duced a species of amusement at Vauxhall Gardens and other places, by means Of a number of lights pieced on a hoop or stick, and varied iu position, which is productive of consider able laughter. The bent from these sources is directed through pieces of card. cut in different fantastic forms, representing Harlequin dancing, and by the moving about of the lights the figures are made to change their position, and dance along iu a merry manner. (1 his, Mr. Addenis illustrated by•a minia tere 'model, which excited much merriment and epplause.) In the camera obscure which was exhibited to the public on George's Pier, the opening was nmeeeble, so as to-command a view of any part of the surrounding scenery. By means of a mir ror and . rt lens ell of this scenery was thrown down upon a table of plaster of Paris, where a distinct picture of all that was passing and repaseing might be clearly seen. 'The catnera !tickle is an instrument by which we can produce, in a small box, a miniature picture af surrounding scenery, so as to enable an artist readily to copy it. (Mr. Addams exhibited a pretty model of time instrument.) The optical paradox is an instrument of amusement, inasmuch as it would appear by its metins Ilea a person was able to see through his own hand or any other opaque body. The manner in which it is contrived consists in placing small Mirrors :it angles of 45° in four differ ent corners, by which means the rays of light, are compelled to traverse the three sides of a square - in their passage from the luminary to the'eye. if a mirror he compounded, in its surface, of a curve and to straight line or of two curves, then it will dis , tort all regular ("mums and restore distorted ones to their proper appearance. ( Mr. Addams exhibited a cylindrical mirror of this s h a pe, as well Jae a 'number of anamorphose or. distorted pictures, which it restored to their proper forms.) The ka leidoscope is composed of two plates of glass enclosed in a eneuter, which form an allele with each other in the centre. 'lf the angle be 60 9 :any object will present FOC distinct bodies similarly t o-ranged. Dr; Brewster made a' fortune by the in vention, but it is Singular hotieithstatediog it is one of the most 'beatitiful toys ie existence, that. it renotined hut a few months in demand, and then ceased to he an object of attention. (Mr. Addams concluded - en excellent lecture by exhibiting and ex plaining-the sextant and magic lantern, the latter of which lie illustrated with several painted pictures or phantasmagoria, which were productive of 'omit latighter.) In Mr. Addains's lecture on Saturday evening, the prismatic decompositipp of white light into coloured rays will he ex plained, as well as the solar spectrhoi, and the unequal illumin ating, calirific, chemical and electrical, blowers of the coloured the cilperbton of, light by- prisms and lenses , rays—the rain b o w, atiul : ehe achromatic and eplanatic lenses for telescopes and mi 'rcscopes.

PETER DENs.—We.give the following statement, supported by th e strongest possible evidence, as one instance o ut of man y that have come to our knowledge, in pFoof of a spirit of awaken ed att ent i o n and reflection on the subject of religion amongst Roman catholics.. A Roman catholic gentleman having a pamphl e t lately published, containing literal extracts from Dens' theology, shocked with the rules for confession, a charac tead the ernesqui.e put - by the priests. t o females of every rank and r solved on asce rt a ining if those rides were still followed, and those queries still used in the con fessional. haulHe,soemnly re quired from his wife an answ er to the question—" such que ries b e e n : ev er urged on her at c onfession?" She declined an swering, till he assured her that their happiness depended o n her candour. She then acknowledged that the queries which he read trnm Dens, we re. used in the confessional. On this dis covery, the gentleman declared that while he had no. intention of renouncing his religion, he mast forbid her ever again going to confession, and declared that should she neglect his injunction, he must consider their marriage compact dissolved. On the future consequences of this step, we shall not now speculate, but we sincerely hope they may be such as shall promote both the temporal.. and eternal .happiness of tha Record. OCT, 21, 1536.

Since the demise of Lady Georgina North, last year, the title has been in abeyance between the Marchioness of Bute and her half sister, Lady Susan Doyle.; but the former having no family, the infant son of Lady Susan Doyle, born last week, is heir ap parent to the barony of North. STATE OF TRADE.—The condition of the money market is beginning to be decidedly felt in this town and Liverpool. In the latter, the cotton market is unusually flat; and prices are giving way. In this' town, power-loom cloth, especially print ing cloth, is lower, and very dull of sale. Domestics, we un derstand, are in somewhat more request. Twist continues at present less affected. The closing purchases for the Russian market give a certain degree of briskness to the demand, which is also aided by considerable German orders. Whether, how ever, prices can he maintained, when the - season for these is at an end, may, perhaps, be doubtful.—Manchester Guardian. WHISKY—IMPORTANT ALTERATION IN THE isnot; perhaps, generally known, that by an act passed the 13th of August, 1836,.6 and 7 W.l, cap. 72, distillers are now permitted and authorised to send whisky into England iu twenty gallon casks; formerly the smallest quantity that conld cross the English border was eighty gallons. We trust the next step will be to equalise the duties between the two countries, and thereby effect a saving to the revenue of £lO,OOO per annum, the present amount of wages .paid to the preventive men and others, solely for protecting this and the neighbouring county of Northumberland from the smuggling of a few gallons of moun tain dew.—Carlisle Journal. Mr. Horace Smith, while reading a paper the other evening' the subject of which was "the probable moral effects of loco motion by steam," among other humorous observations, re marked, that so ardent were the anticipations respecting the rate of travelling by steam entertained by its advocates. that a gentleman, we believe from the sister isle, had asserted that by-and-by a man. would actually be enabled to travel from Brighton to London by steame in a shorter•time than he could stop at home, "au assumption, however," observed Mr. Smith, " which I do not exactly concur!" BAD IS THE BEST.—Mr. Horace Smith, while lecturing the other night at the Sussex Institution, Brighton, took occasion to point out the necessity of being content with one's lot, illus trating the remark with the following bon mot:—" A friend of mine," he said, "a remarkably c ool and p hiloso p hic p erson, was lately travelling to London at a moment when he was la bouring under a very severe cough, which not only was ex tremely distressing to himself, but also proved a source of great annoyance to his fellow-passengers, till at last an old gentleman ensconced in the corner observed, with much displeasure, 'Sir, that's a very bad cough you've got.' `True, sir,' replied the other, but it is the best rye got !' " A NEw Viociwis - r.—Some of ,the provincial papers (especi ally The Maidstone Gazette) are giving accounts of a party of Italian performers who are at present giving concerts in differ ent parts of the country. The most remarkable among them is Chevalier Filippa, who has received a title from the pope on account of his extraordinary powers as a performer on the vio lin. He is a pupil of Paganini, and is described as almost rivalling his master in his own peculiar style, both of execution and expression. He will, it is to be presumed, make his ap pearance soon in the metropolis, when we shull be able tojudge for ourselves of the extent of his attainments. His Royal Highness the Prince Constantine Frederick Peter of Oldenburg, who was lately on a tour in the united kingdom, will receive the hand of his first cousin, the Duchess Amelia, early in the spring. The illustiiousfianee is in her 18th year. and is the eldest daughter of the reigning Grand Duke of Olden burg Holstein by his first marriage with the Princess Adelaide of Bernbourg Bchonenhourg, who died in the flower of her youth three years after her marriage. A young lady, under 20 years of age, eloped from her go- j verness, at Brighton, ou Wednesday last, and it is supposed has taken the roadsfor Gretna-green. Her companion is sus pected to be the son of an apothecary, a young man not twenty I years of age, who had been constant in his attentions to her. The lady, when of .age, will have a fortune of at least £6,000- per annum: An astrologer once foretold the death of a lady whom Louis XI., passionately loved: she slid, in fact die ; and the eking imagined that the prediction of the astrologer was the cause of it. He sent for the man, intending to have him thrown through the windoW, as a punishment; "Tell me, thou who pretendest to be so clever and learned a man, what thy fate will be ?" The soothsayer, who suspected the intentions of the king, and who knew his foible, replied, "Sire, I foresee that I shall die three days before your majesty." The prince believed him, and was careful of the astrologer's life. FOOTMARKS IN DIFFERENT STRATA.—The geologists have not yet been fortunate enough to discover many marks of the footsteps of animals in different strata. The first of these dis coveries was made in sandstone, in Dumfriesshire ; these were ascertained by De Buckland to have been made by a tortoise Since that time others have been discovered at Hilburgbausen, in Germany. These are of four different animals. one of the marsupial kind, remains of which had been previously disco vered in the oolite formation. Very extraordinary footsteps have also been discovered by Professor Hitchcock, in America; some of them, it is ascertained, have been made by an immense bird, the step of which had six feet in interval. Tlse footmarks of crabs have also been observed in oolite, near Bath. Also, stones have been observed, which must have been rubbed by animals whose remains are now fossil, from their polished sur face resembling that now produced by animals in the field or in caves. A TALE OF MYSTERY. —An affair hitherto involved in the greatest obscurity is now under investigation, and likely to be come public In the year 1821 a young Englishwoman, of considerable personal attractions, was immured in a convent of this city, under the pretext that her intellects were deranged, and has been kept in close confinement until the present mome nt. II er age is new supposed to be 30, so that the unfor tunate creature could not he more than 18 when she was com pelled to renounce the gaities of the world fOr the austerities of the cloister. All that has yet transpiied is, that she was placed in the convent by the orders of the Princess Beira, who, at the comm ence ment, frequently visited her, but afterwards commis sioned a person in her full confidence to supply her place. Who the person in question is, whence she came, or in what relation she stood as regards the Princess, is as yet unknown, but we may expect some ,extraordinary disclosures.--Letter from Madrid. MAGISTERIAL MARRIAGES.—A dissenter's marriage, accord ing to the new bill, will be a charge of assault brought before a magistrate, by a young woman, " for that by various oglings, leerings, glances, &c., together with sharp instruments, tongues, eyes, &c., she did feloniously cut, wound, bruise &c., the heart of the seid Charles," whereupon the magistrate will inflict the summary punishment of imprisonment tot life. commonly called " Marriage," together with two shillings expenses on the said Jemima. How highly exciting and amusing will the Bow-stree t re ports now be. "Strocious Assault—love at first sight," will with the interesting particulars, delight every breakfast-table in London. Fleet marriages were formerly abused; what will our fair friends think of Bow-stret Marriages ? And when t ardent lover sighs forth his soul at Caroliue's feet. how singular it will sound to hear the young lady, instead of insinuating do l- the G re tna Greets blacksmith, sob forth, " !
