After most careful examination of Mr.. J. Tobias's

suits from a toe constant and intense use OF these
sensitive organs, we were led TO make trial OF To-
bias new and improved discovery for the eyes, whose
name heads this article We saw them recommend
ed by sundry gentlemen of Virginia, whom we know,
and therefore had less hesitation in making the
pertinent. We are more than pleased with the arti-

any we had ever tried before; and we see more dis
tincty with them. Without meaning TO disparage the
claims of others, who have made improvements in

In the experience Of even two years, have found
great difficulty in obtaining Spectacles that were ex
actly adapted TO the weakness Of my sight This i'm
convenience Mr. Tobias seems to have removed for
the present by the substitution for of better and
more suitable Glasses They clear, chrystallike,
and comfortable to my eyes, would commend HIM
to those who, from age or other inirmity, require
artificial aid in this way. j. j. SlMklNS, M. ID.

very decidedly the best possess, and am the owner
of eight or nine pairs carefully selected in different
