In Scotland an important geological discovery has
lately been made. Zore•More, a large mountain near
fipple-,,rocs, on the wet coast, on being accvlentally ex-
mvated, presented a substratum of pure lime, within 5
feet of the surface ; and on prosecuting the discovery by
a further excavation, it was aQcertained that the whole
mountain, except an average surface of twenty feet, con-
sists of lime fit for burning or agricultural purposes.
The hill appears to have been at one time a stupendous
limestone rock, which has been submitted to the action
of intense heat. On the summit of the mountain
volcanic remains, vitrified stone, and lava have been
found.

[AnvEnTiszwxr.] Her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent for
valuable and extraordinary improvements iu the most powers
ful awl brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race-course, Opera, and
Perspective Glasses(glazed with Munic German Glass), to know
the distances of objects viewed through then—of great im-
portance to the army, navy, awl others. Messrs. S. and B.
Solomons, opticians, 39, Albemarle street, Piccadilly. Oh-
serve opposite the York Hotel.- These telescopes possess
such extraordinary powers that.some 3i 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,
awl 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 Jess mag-
nifying power—and they do not require the frequent changes
to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. Deaf-
ness—New The Organic ibr.tor, an extraordi-

, 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-
ance that possibly could be desired,-39, Albenaarly-street,

The Lancaster's guns were the great objects of attention.
The principle of the bore is altogether a secret. The effect
of the discharges we described in yesterday's Sun. The
firing of so heavy a charge of powder and shell has severely
tried the seams of so comparatively small a vessel, and
some re-caulking and other defects have had to be made
good. There has been some grumbling about the vessel
having been sent from Woolwich in an unfinished state.
There is, however, scarcely so much time to finish work at
Woolwich now as there was in the piping times of peace;
and when it is considered that not an inch of timber was
sawn for the construction of the Arrow only four months
since, the world must say it is wonderfully " go ahead" to
have six such ships afloat at this time, and one of them
actually trying experiments with the largest and heaviest
gun that is used for ships' armaments.

The Beagle, screw steam despatch gun-boat, Lieutenant-
Cominauder Hore, the second of the gun-boats fitted with
engines of 160-horse power, by Humphrys, Tennant, and
Dykes, had her steam up to-day for the first time in the
basin at Woolwich, and they worked very satisfactorily un-
der the superintendence of Mr. Dykes, one of the partners of
that firm. She has her two 68-pounder oval guns, mounted
on traversing platforms, on board, and a large supply of
spheric d shot and shells for serving them, the latter adapted
for Moorsom's fusers, fur the firing of which these oval
gnus appear to be well adapted when the practice is car-
ried on at long ranges.

The Wrangler, screw steam despatch gun-boat, Lieut.-
Commander Risk, is progressing fast towards completion
in the basin at Woolwich, and her engines, by Mandalay,
Sons, and Field, fitting under the superintendence of Mr.
Joseph Maudslay, are in so forward a state that the
Wrangler has been placed under orders to leave Woolwich
for Greenbit he on Saturday, the 26th instant, to have her
compasses adjusted, and will then proceed to Portsmouth,
to have her guns tested in the presence of the officers of
the t xcellout, gunnery-ship at that port. The difficulty
which was at first experienced to meet the requirements
of the new high and low placed boilers in these gun-boats
has been obviated, and they are now said to work well.
A court-martial was held yesterday on board the flag-
ship Victory, in Portsmouth harbour, to try Mr. William
John Webster Yelland, Second-Master of the steam gun-
boat Arrow, on charges of disrespect and contempt towards
his commander (Lieutenant Jolliffej, and for disobedience
of orders. The charges were proved. The prisoner made
no defence, and was sentenced to be dismissed from her
Majesty's service.
