Messrs Solomons' newly invented Spectacle Lenses; the astonishing

rings every object verysdistinct, and enables individuals to view the
Most minute particle with perfect accuracy. They are particularly
pleasant by candle light, as they appear cooling to the sight, and
soften bright and brilliant lights :

THE RECENT CANVASS FOR SIR G. MUR-
RAY.—We observe that the Manchester Chronicle af-
sects to deny that there has been any recent canvass
on the part of the Tories in this Borough, at least any
canvass authorised by Sir George Murray's committee ;
and suggests, that our statement was a trick to conceal
an active canvass for a Liberal Member. In answer to
these allegations, we have only to say, that we know
that votes have been solicited for Sir George Murray
by several different parties, and in different quarters of
the borough. In the majority of the cases, our infor-
mants did not know the canvassers personally ; but in
one case the party asking for votes in the township of
Cheetham was known ; and as the truth of our state-
ment has been questioned, we feel at liberty to state,
that it was Mr. Thistlethwaite, a cashier in the bank
of Messrs. Jones, Loyd and Co., and a gentleman not
at all likely to be engaged in any unauthorised canvass.
Manchester Guardian.

FATAL ACCIDENT.--Last evening an inquest
was taken before Mr. Higgs, in the boardroom of St.
George's Hospital, on the body of Edward Green,
aged 13. It appeared from the evidence that the de-
ceased, with ether boys was at play on some barges,
and in jumping off struck his head against the
" sheets" of one of the barges. He was taken to the
hospital, but was not admitted in consequence of the
wound being of a very trivial nature. He was brought
there, however, several times after for the surgeon to
see him. The wound healed, and the deceased ap-
peared quite well. On Friday he was admitted into
the hospital, having been seized with a shivering fit the
previous night, and complained of a pain in his head.
On the following day he fell into a stupor, in which he
continued till his death, which took place at three
o'clock on Wednesday. On examining the head the left
hemisphere of the brain was covered with matter. Ver-
dict, accidental death.
