[ADVERTISEMENT.] SIGHT AND HEARING. SPEC"
TACLES.—POWERFUL TELESCOPES.—OPERA, RACE, AND
PERSPECTIVE GLASSES. - Messrs. S. and B. Solomon,
opticians, 39, Albemarle-Street, Piccadilly. Observe.--
opposite the York Hotel, W.—OPera, Race-course, Field,
and general Out-door Day and Night Perspective Glasses;
very small, for the waistcoat pocket, each containing 12 and
18 lenses, constructed of German glass. Will show dis-
tinctly a person to know them at two-and-a-half and three
miles, and an object from eight to ten miles distant. Her Majesty's Coast Guards are
making use of them as day and
night glasses in preference to all others ; they are also pre-
ferred for deer-stalking by sportsmen, gentlemen, and
gamekeepers. Telescopes 31 inches long, by which a per..
son may be clearly seen and known at 31 miles' and an
object at 12 to 14 miles' distance; and with an extra astro-
nomical eye-piece, Jupiter's moons, Saturn's rings, and
the double stars are distinctly seen. All the above can be
had of larger and all sizes, with increasing powers, and
are secured by her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent.
The Royal Exhibition, 1851. A valuable, 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 purpose on tha Race-course and at the Opera'
houses. Country scenery and ships are clearly seen
at four to six miles. They are invaluable for shooting/
deer-stalking, yachting, to sportsmen, gentlemen, game-
keepers, and tourists. Price 30s.—Spectacle Lenses of the
greatest transparent power. The great 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 occupation
—can see with those lenses of a much less magnifying
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 send-
ing one of the glasses out of their spectacles in a letter, and
stating the distance from the eyes they can read small print
with it, and those who have not made use of spectacles by
statingtheirage. Deafness.—New Discovery.—The Organic'
Vibrator, an extraordinarily powerful small newly-invente
instrument for Deafness, 'entirely different from all others,
surpasses anything of the kind that has been, or probably
ever 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 unplea-
sant sensation of singing noises in the ears is entirely re:
moved, and it affords all the assistance that possibly conic'
be desired.-39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly; Observe"'
