HER MAJESTY'S NEW STATIONERY OFFICE.—The
edifice about to be substituted for the small and incon-
venient office which is at present devoted to supplying
the stationery for her Majesty's offices is now nearly
completed, and will in a few weeks be appropriated
to the entire business which is now transacted in
Great George-street. The new office is a plain but
remarkably neat building, erected in Princes-street,
Storey's-gate,at the rear of tie Westminster hos-
pital, upon ie site of the old Royal Westminster Mews,
by Messrs. Piper and Son, of Bishopsytte. It forms
three sides of a quadrangle, and thus encloses a large
court-yard ; the principal front, which is about 90 feet
in length, and of proportionate elevation, is built with a
very light-coloured brick, relieved with stone dreSsings,
and the general interior arrangements and fittings are
admirably suited to the required purposes. To show
the absolute necessity, in the present pressure of Go-
vernment business, for the erection of a new office, se-
veral tons of paper have already been stored in a part of
the new building.

Letters Patent for valuable and extraordinary improvements
in the most powerful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race-
course, Opera, and Perspective Glasses, to know the distances
of objects viewed through them—of great importance to the
army, navy, and others. These telescopes possess such extra-
ordinary powers that some 3i inches, with an extra eye-
piece, will show distin ly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's ring,
and the double stars ; with the same telescope can be
seen a person's countenance three miles and a half distant,
and an object from 16 to 20 miles. They are of larger and all
sizes, with increasing powers accordingly ; while their vary-
ing from 4 to 6 inch I r enab'e us to discover more than the

Exhibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small,

nary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for deafness,
entirely different from all others, to surpass anything of the
kind that has been, or probably ever can be, produced.
Being of the same colour as the skin, is not perceptible ; it
enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at
public assemblies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing noises
in the ears is entirely removed ; and it affords all the assist-
