Mi. Sidney Herbert, M.P., with Captain Galton, Royal
Engineers, Dr. Sutherland, and several other members
of the Barrack and Hospital Improvements Commis-
sion, visited Woolwich yesterday, and were accompanied
through the departments by the Deputy Inspector-General
of Hospitals, Dr. J. W. Halahan ; Colonel Walpole, Com-
manding Royal Engineer ; Captain Freeth, Deputy Assis-
tant Quartermaster-General ; Capt. Sutherland, Barrack-
master ; and Captain Steele, H. P. Royal Artillery, mem-
ber of the local Board of Health for the War Department.
In anticipation of the expected visit of the Sanitary Com-
mission from London, orders were issued throughout the
garrison for the removal of all the accumulated filth and
rubbish in the courtyards and offices, which were accord-
ingly put into good order. For some time past the sleeping
rooms in the field battery range have been unavoidably en-
cumbered with beds, considerably beyond the stipulated
number. These were yesterday morning removed to store,
gully-holes were opened and refuse bins uncovered, and
their contents were being carted away when the Sanitary
Commission made their appearance. The foul air and
stench were for a time insufferable. The cause, however,
was manifest, and after a hasty inspection the Commission
proceeded to the hospital, stables, and appurtenances.
They ♦isited the several guard-rooms, the regimental
chapel (which has been closed about 12 months, and has
undergone thorough repair), the libraries, schools, and de-
partments of the garrison generally. Their attention
was directed to the examination of the now cooking
apparatus, the advantages of which were duly ex-
plained and exemplified by fewer fires to attend to ;
a greater facility in cleaning the cook-house, boilers,
&o. ; a lower temperature in the kitchen, with more
room for the distribution of the meals. It appears that
in the estimated cost of the apparatus to accommodate
15'.)0 men a saving of iIS per cent. is realized on the ordinary
method of cooking. It was therefore proposed that CAP
tain Grant shall be invited to erect a model kitchen upon
his principle for 500 men, in order to verify the accuracy
of the estimate, and to test its capabilities before intro-
ducing it finally into the service.

By her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent for valuable and ex-
traordinary improvements in the most powerful and brilliant
Telescopes, Camp, Race-course, Opera, and Perspective
Glasses, to know the aistances. ' These Telesoopes 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-half miles
distant and an object from 16 to 20 miles. For the waist-
coat-pocket, and are of larger, and all sizes, with increasing
powers accordingly. The Royal Exhibition, 1851. —A valu-
able, newly-invented, very small, powerful, Waistcoat-pocket
Glass, the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and
known one and a-half mile distant. They 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 wonderful
powers. - Invaluable preserving Spectacle Lenses of the
greatest transparent pelves. The great advantage derived
from this invention is, that vision impaired becomes pre-
served and strengthened and very aged persons are enabled
to employ their sight at the most minute occupation—can see
with those lenses of a much less magnify lug power—and
they do not require the frequent changes to the claw
gerons effects of further powerful assistance. Persons
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 distance 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
