SPECTACLES.--My attention has been called to
- an article in The public papers and circulated in
handbs ABOUT this city called Perifocal Specacles,
said to be constructed in accordance with the phi
Iosophy Of nature, In the form OF Concavo Convex
Ellipsis What is meant by the philosophy Of nature
may be hard 10 tell but certainly they are at variance
from the laws or principles cf Optics, certainly
Epsis converge the rays OF light TO perfect TO-
Gus. They said not to be the French menscus
or Wollaston's periscopic Zone and the same con-
str,ction Of glasses.) The menscus lens is truly
ground surface, concaye one side; the other side
possessing greater degree Of sphereity consequent
ly becomes magnify:ng glass. Thisspeces of glass
will converge the rays Of light the same as double
convex lens The application Of this form Of lenses
in the shape of Spectacles gives the eye greater
field Of vision.
The celebrated DIR. Brewster in speaking Of these
Spectaces says that they give decidedly more nper-
feet visions than spectacles, because they in
both the alteration Of figure and Of coor bat
they may be of use in crowded city in warning us
of the oblique approach OF objects. Now, as spec
tacles are intended to assist nature and the Eye,
the most perfect masterpiece OF Divine Mechanism
(in its natural state, every part has the very form
and office which the laws of optics require for the most
perfect vision Of an object Is it not preposterous to
apply piece of bent concaye or convex glass with
out true form or figure to its assstance' On the
trary, it not reasonable to conclude that their
tinued would destroy the eye entircly Specta-
ces are probably the most ancient OF all optical in
struments and yet has undergone the least change Of
any. The subject has been well considered by Opti-
clans througie all Europe for ages and the general
conviction is that truly ground concavc or convex
lens is the understandable for assisting dccayng
