BREVET,

[ADVERTISEMENT.] Her Majesty's Royal Letters
Patent, for valuable and extraordinary improvements in
the most powerful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race•

Munic German Glass), to know the distances of
objects viewed through them—of great importance
to the army, navy, and others. Messrs. S. and B.

Observe—opposite the York Hotel.—These telescopes pos-
sess such extraordinary powers that some 3:t, inches, with
an extra eye-piece, will show distinctly Jupiter's moons,
Saturn's ring, and the double stars; with the same tele-
scope can be seen a person's countenance three miles
and a half distant, and an object from 12 to H miles.
They are of larger and all sizes, with increasing powers
accordingly.—The Royal Exhibition, 1851. —Val ua ble,
