DEAFNESS.--Sound Magnifiers, and
Operative Voice Conductors, to enable persons at an advanced
age, and of old standing extreme deafness, to join in genera,
conversation, and to catch the sound of a distant low speaker
at a public assembly; they are the size of a very small gold
seven shilling piece, and when in the cavity of the ears, they
are not in the least perceptible nor more uncomfortable then
having a small piece of fine wool in its place ; they are composed
of a metal to collect sound, peculiar to the Messrs. S. and R.
Solomons themselves ; and although they are so extremely smal:
yet they . enable those afflicted with extreme deafness, and
those who are only slightly dull of hearing to hear in every
respect equal to those of most acute hearing. Messrs. S. and

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
TATTERSALL'S—YESTERDAY.
TEE DERBY.—Ballinkeele had a strong party, and for
want of better odds the twenty-fives to one were taken so
eagerly, that long before the close of the betting the cur-
rent offers on the part of the layers did not exceed 20 to
1; it is still the prevailing opinion that he will become
English property. Chatham, Robert de Gorham, the
Dirce colt, and Wiseacre, were in favour at pretty nearly
the averages of Monday last, and a few bets were laid to
small sums against outsiders, without leading to any fluc-
tuations worth mention. No offers on the field.

heim to Heidelberg was opened in September, 1840, is
about two German miles long, and cost 693,000 rixdol.
