[AnysarussmaNr.]—By 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 3 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 gla.ss,the size of 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 ocenpation—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 Persous to hear distinctly at church and at
public' assemblies.; the unpleasant sensation of singing noises
in thi ears N entirely removed ; and it affords all the assist-
ance that possibly could be desired,--L-39, Albeeaarlt-street,
Piccadilly. Observe--opposite the York Rotel.
