[ADVERTISEMENT.]-Do you wish to avoid all the
torture .‘ which shaving has entailed upon your chins?" then
hasten and try Ross and Sons' newly-invented Railway Strop;
so named, as it enables you to shave yourself at a railway pace,
and with as little friction, making even the commonest razor
cut well. The composition is entirely new, and surpasses
everything hitherto invented for the purpose. Likewise, in-
stead of paste, which few can apply properly, theirs is a powder
for renovating the strop, and can be used by a child.—To be
had, wholesale, retail, and for exportation of the Proprietors,
Ross and Sons, 119, and 120, Rishopsgate-street.
[AD VERTISEMENT.] —THE EYES.-39, Albemarle-
street, Piccadilly. Optical Instruments to enableTpersons at ad-
yawed age to read with ease and to discriminate objects withperfect
distinctness. Messrs. S. and B. Solomons, opticians, have invented
Spectacle Lenses, &c. of the ;greatest transparent power, which are
patronised by his Majesty the King of Hanover, her Grace the
Dowager Duchess of Bedford, their Graces the Archbishops of Can-
terbury. York, and Dublin, the Dukes of Devonshire, Norfork, Ar-
gyle, Marlborough and Manchester, Bishops of Exeter and Lincoln,
Cork, Elphin, and Kildare. By this invention, imperfect vision is
preserved and strengthened, and very aged persons are enabled to
employ their sight at the most minute occupation, and can see with
these lenses of a much less magnifying power, and they do not re-
quire the frequent changes to further helps. Also, Achromatic Te-
lescopes, Opera Glasses, Microscopes, Invisible, and all kinds of
Acoustic Instruments, for relief of extreme deafness. Caution—
Messrs. S. and B. Solomons, Opticians, are not in any way con-
nected with a person of the same name in their immediate neigh-
bourhood, nor in any part of the country. To prevent mistakes, be
cautious and observe, only to be had at 39, Albemarle-street, Picca-
dilly, opposite the York Hotel.

morable events that have yet been given to the public. The
varied qualities of the work will ensure it a wide circle of
readers, and we believe a lasting popularity. The imagina-
tive will esteem it for the romance of its fiction ; the
thoughtful for its sentiments and its principles; and the men
of public life for its copious eloquence and glowing images.
