tered a public-house. On seeing them the innkeeper ex-
pressed his regret that he had nothing to offer them—a
regiment, he said, had just passed, and had purchased
all his provisions. 'Never mind,' said the Emperor ;
Give me a table—that will do ; and request the mayor
of the commune to come to me.' Some minutes after
the worthy magistrate, who had been at work in the
fields, entered sans ceremonie. The unknown visitors
had caused provisions to be spread from a ran which ac- '
companied them, and they cordially invited the mayor to
breakfast with them. It was only at the end of the re-
past that the Emperor, after having inquired respecting
all that concerned the commune, made himself known."
Some months ago, when oats were at an unusually
high figure, our city and suburban omnibus fares were
raised about 25 per cent. The public considered the in-
crease reasonable under the circumstances, and the extra
halfpenny or penny was paid without much grumbling.
It is proper to state, however, that a disposition to com-
plain of the continuance of high fares is now widely pre-
valent ; and, looking at the present state of the corn
markets, it would be well for our omnibus proprietors
to consider whether the time for redeeming their pledge
of returning, as soon as possible, to the old rates, has
not fully arrived.-- Glasgow Citizen.
[AnvEariss]nsyr.l—Her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent, for
valuable and extraordinary improvements in the most power-
ful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race-course, Opera, and
Perspective Glasses(glazed with Mimic German Glass), to know
the distances of objects viewed through them—of great im-
portance to the army, navy, and others. Messrs. S. and B.
Solomons, opticians, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly. Ob-
serve—opposite the York Hotel.— These telescopes possess
such extraordinary powers that some :q inches, with an ex-
tra eye-piece, will show distinctly 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 12 to 14 miles. They are of larger and all
sizes, with increasing powers accordingly.—The Royal Ex-
hibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small,
powerful waistcoat-pocket glass, the sizeof a walnut, by which
a person can be seen and known 1 miles distant ; they answer
every purpose on the race-course, and at the opera houses,
country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at 8 to 10 miles.
They are invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting, to
sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera,
race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with wonderful
power ; an object can be clearly seen from 10 to 12 miles
distant. Spectacle Lenses of the greatest transparent power.
The valuable advantage derived from this invention is, that
vision becoming impaired is preserved and strengthened, and
very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the most
minute occupation—can see with these lenses of a much less mag-
nifying power—and they do not require the frequent changes
to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. Deaf-
ness—New Discovery.—The Organic Vibrator, an extraordi-
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 assemL dies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing noises
in the ears is entirely removed ; and it affords all the assist-
ance that puEsibly could be desired,-39, Albemarle-Arcot,
Onerve-,oppoeite the York hotel.
