IAD VERT:SEMENT.I SIGHT Ale H RARING SPECTACLES,
POWERFUL TELESCOPES, OPERA, RACE, AND PERSPECTIVE
GLASSES. —MeSf,Ps. S, and B. Polom sus, opticians, 39, Allie-
marle-street, Piccadilly. Observe—opposite the York Hotel.
By her Majesty's Repel Letters Patent for valuable and
extraordinary improvements iu the most powerful and
brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Racecourse, Opera, and Per-
spective Glasses, to know the distances of objects viewed
through them—of great importance to the army, navy,
and others. These telescopes posess such extraordinary
powers that some three and a-half inches, with an extra eye.
piece, veil'. 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 16 to 20 miles. They are of larger and all
sizes, with increasing powers accordingly ; while their vary-
ing 4 to 6 inches enable us to discover more than the
above and the Georgian, with his 6 satellites, &c.--The Royal
Exhibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small,
powerful waistcoat-pocket glass,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 aro invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting, to
sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera,
race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with 'wonderfu.,
power. Newly-constructed Spectacle Lenses of the great-
est 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 occu.
patione- can see with these lenses of a much less magnify-
ing power—and they do not require the frequent change,
to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance.
Deafness—Now Discovery.—The Organic Vibrator, an ex-
traordi nary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument foi
deafness, entirely different from all others, to surpass any-
thing of the kind that has been, or probably ever san be,
produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is not per
ceptiblo ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church
end at public assemblies; the unpleasant sensation of singing
noises in the ears is entirely removed; and it affords all the
essistance that possibly could be desired.-39, Albemarkt-
