BUNTINGFORD AND WARE.

A numerous and influential meeting was held at Bun-
tingford on Monday, for the purpose of promoting the con-
struction of a line of railway from that town to the Eas-
tern Counties Railway at Ware.
Mr. ABEL SMITH, M.P., was called to the chair. He
adverted to the desirableness of providing the town and
district with railway communication, and the disad-
vantages which they laboured under from not having that
means of transit.

Several gentlemen, large landowners in the neighbour.
hood, then addressed the meeting in favour of the scheme,
and resolutions were adopted strongly urging the forma.
tion of the line, and recommending it to the support of
the inhabitants. _

_A
committee was then appointed to consult the owners
of property through which the proposed line was to pass,
and to adopt other measures to carry out the objects of
the meeting.
A voto of thanks to the chairman closed the proceed-
ings.

extraordinary improvements in the. most powerful and
brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Racecourse, Opera, and Per.
spective Glasses, to know the distances. These telescopes
possess such extraordinary powers that some three and a-half
inches, with an extra 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 an object from 16 to 20 miles. They are of
!larger and all sizes, with increasing powers accordingly.—The

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 are invaluable for shooting, doer-staring, yachting, to
sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera,
race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with wonderful
power. Newly-constructed Spectacle Lenses of the greet-
ed transparent power. The valuable adva,tage 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 °cell.

ing power—and they do not require the frequent changes
to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance.
Persons can be suited at the most remote part of the world,
by sending ono of the glasses out of their spectacles in a
letter, and stating the distance from the eyes they can read

not made use of spectacles by stinting their ago.—Deaf-
