Telescopes, Camp, Race-course, Opera, and Perspective
Glasses, to know the distances. These Telescopes possess
such extraordinary power 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-and-a-hklf miles
distant and an object from 16 to 20 miles. For the waist-

powers accordingly. The Royal Exhibition, 1851. —A valu-
ale, newly-invented, very small, Powerful, Waistcoai.pocket
Glass, the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and
known one and a-half mile distant.
.hey answer every pur-
pose on the Race-course and at the Opera-houses. Country
scenery and ships are clearly seen at 12 to 14 miles. They
are invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting, to
sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera,
Camp, Perspective, and Race-course Glasses, with woaierful
powers. Invaluable preserving Spectacle Lenses of the
greatest transparent power. The great advantage dsrived
from this invention is, that vision impaired becomes pre-
served and strengthened and very aged persons are ambled
to employ their sight at the most minute occupation—cm see
with those lenses of a munch less magnify ing power—and
they do not require the frequent changes to the dim-
gerous effects of further powerful assistance. ?evens
can be suited at the most remote part of the world by send-
, ing one of the glasses out of their spectacles in a letter, and
stating the dist trace from the eye they can read small print
with it, and those who have not made use of spectacles by
stating their age. Deafness.—New Discovery.—The Organic

instrument for deafness, entirely different from all others,
surpassing anything of the kind that has been, or probsbly
can be, produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is
not perceptible. It enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at
church and at public assemblies ; the unpleasant sensation of
singing noises in the ears is entirely removed, and it sear&
all the assistance that possibly could be desired.-39. AN).
