Sly DEAR Siit,—ln reply to your question respecting the
effect of your solution upon the sails and awnings of the
,essels of the Niger Expedition, the canvas of which was
steeped ;n it before they were male, 1 have muck pleasure in
being able to state that, they were most effectually preserved
from mildew, and this after as :severe a trial as canvas could
well undergo, being alternately exposed during several months
to heavy rains and a burning sun, with the thermometer some-
times at 93 deg., and generally much above 80 deg.
am, my dear Sir,
Sir Wm. Burnett, K.CI-1, H. TROTTER, R.N.
Ramsgate, 20th Dec., 1841.
St e.—l beg to acquaint you'that, agreeably to your request, I
have examined the sails on board the Gull steam light vessel,
he which were prepared with Sir William Burnett's Patent So-
lution, and were put on board in September, 1840. since which
time they have been kept on the deck, and exposed to the wea-
ther ; notwithstanding which, they are still in as good condi-
iion as when first put on board; are free from mildew, anti
have no appearance of any decay whatever. Lnprepared sails
under similar circumstances would have been in a decayca state
and rendered quite unservicable.
I am, Sir, your most obedient humble Servant,
(Signed) R. DAVIS.

Messrs• S. and B. SOLOMONS, Opticians and /twists, during
a professional experience of thirty yews, have had ample oppor-
tunities of verifying ihat the Organs of Sight and Hearing
are sympatheticaly related to each other in such a peculiar
manlier, that when the former becomes imperfect the sense
or hearing becomes rapidly dull . this fact is admitted by sci-
entific, authorities, and must be observable by many thou.
rof indivi. tials thus circu nstanced—which is deserving the
public's most serious attention. The Messrs. Solomons, with a view
to remedy such an affection, and after they have devoted their whole
byes to this interesting branch of s:ience, have succeeded in effecting
or itnperfect vial n a most scientific improvement in a Transparency
for Spectacles, and a pre, 'wive oral cure for Deafness; they have in-
vented an Operative Voice Conductor, upon a very small construction.,
not peiceptible ; it requires no holding, and the individual imine.
diately becomes one of the party in the general conversation.
by these important discoveries not only is defective vision
brought to nature, but the sense of hearing is restored to its
original scut ness ; those Lenses are so constructed and
adapted to weak and Imperfect eyesight, upon such scientific prin.
ciples, combined with the long extensive experience of the Messrs.
Solomons, that they will be found to effect s ch an extent
or relief, whice will far exceed their utmost and most sanguine ex-
pectations. On placing those Lenses before imperfect vision, either
by clay or candlelight. every object becomes clear and distinct, and
the most minute particle seen with exact distinctness. The Messrs.
Solomons have in their possession, without ono exception, Spectacles
and Ear Instrument,. of every kind which are offered to the public
by other individuals, to point out the superiority of their improve-
ments over all others. The patronage of rsobility and Gentry, and
recommendations of the prit.cipal Oculist Physicians and Surgeons
in Landon, and through Great Britain as well as nu the Continent,
would be ton numerous for insertion.

The Messrs. So!omens are anxious that the public should not
confound them with persons of the same name, it being admitted by
professional gentlemen of the highest character, and may be observed
by any individual, that their newly-invented Sp. ctacles and Opera-
tive Voice C,nductors for Deafness, surpass any thing of the kind
yet put before the public. They request attention to the first part
of their names and address, 30, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, directly
opposite the York Hotel, and 75, King William-street, Bank.—No
Agents or Travellers are employed.
