MISCELLANEOUS.

The Accountant-General has made an official visit to the
Sheerness yard, and returned to London.
Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence left yesterday at 3 p.m. for
London.
Lady Montefiore's donation to the Russian prisoners of
war (not Jews) was 5/. to each commander of the Devon-
shire and Benbow, and not, as stated, 51. to each prisoner.
A great increase to the stock of provisions and victual-
ling stores is being made at Sheerness, preparatory to the
arrival of the Baltic fleet now homeward bound. Most of
the vessels, it is expected, will winter at Sheerness.
The Julia transport, 111, is daily expected at Woolwich
from the Baltic. She brings home for deposit in the Royal
Arsenal at Woolwich three iron eight•iueh guns captured
at Bomarsund.
Tho Trafalgar and Earl of Hardwicke, Indiamen, arrived
at Spithead this morning from the Thames.
The mutineer, John Dray, received his 50 lashes this
morning at Spithead, and, as generally happens; the bully
is the greatest coward. The fellow hallooed like a bull.
His messmates had no pity for him.

[ApvsarissmEr.j—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 !Annie 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.
Solomous, opticians, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly. Ob-
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,
and au object from 12 to 14 miles. They aro 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 ; au 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 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, Albemarle-street,
Piccadilly. Observe- opposite the York Hotel.
[ADvEnTisEmENT.]-11olloway's Pills for the cure of
Indigestion and general Debility.—Copy of a letter from
Miss Isabella Bowse, King Edward-street, Grimsby,
dated July 27, 1854 :—" To Professor Holloway. Sir,—
With gratitude I am enabled to testify to the wonderful
virtues your pills possess, having derived considerable
benefit from using them. For twelve months I was a
severe sufferer from general debility, indigestion, loss of
appetite, and altogether a very deranged system. I re-
sorted to various medicines without deriving any benefit ;
at last I was recommended to try your Pills, and after
taking them for a short time I was perfectly cured.
(Signed) Isabella Bowse." Sold by all vendors of me-
dicines, and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244,
Strand, London ; and 89, Maiden-lane, New York.
