, etude will be best evinced to the Public by an increased atten-
tion to their comforts, combined with that just and wholesome

torily explained by the undermentioned scientific authories:—
r ton, the ...Dictionary of Arts and Sciences" of Andrew Ure, M.D.
F.R.S., &c. &c.
" Amber is indurated vegetable juice, and not produced by the
laws of cl",-,atallization, but by the same causes whicn influence the
rnettar2..cal condition of gum. Insects are often found embedded in
it Amber is most powerfully electrical by friction very hot, to
I":..Ch an extent as to explode into fragments • the workmen too, arc
subject to nervous tremours in their wrists,' arms, &c. ; they en.,
counter great danger by handling such dreadful excited electric,;
Amber grows with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a
loft nature when exposed to warmth that it swells, bubbles tip, and
Will burn away with flame,"
The above Dr. Ure's statements are further confirmed by Sir D.
tRIONSTER and Pliny, as also by Parks and Hern on Chemistry,
...he destructive effects of such a material for Spectacles, to imperfect
ilsion, may be ascertained at any respectable Optician's in I.ondon.
The Messrs. Solomon' newly-invented Spectacle Lenses arc not
tastructed of such a material; but which are very superior, and
Qg back at once dimness of sight add imperfect vision to its
Binal and natural state ; these Spectacles, and very small Voice
Viductors for Deaf persons, are only to be had at their Establish.
