ISPECTACLFSl
THE only PERFECT LENS in existence:
4 superior to any other IN use; construct
ed IN accordance with tho science and phi
lHosophy OF nature , in the peculiar form of
Concavo-convexE Ellipsis- admirably adapt
cd to the organ of sight. and perfectly
natural to the eye, affording altogether the
best artificial help to the human vision
ever invented. Sold only by the Professor
OF Optics and Spectacle Manufacturer.
The advantages Of these Spcctaclcs over
all others are:
1st. The only true lens known being per-
Iectly free from chromatic light, 80 we'll
known to be the cause Of injury to the vi
sion, and whith makes the change from
spectacles to glasses Of stronger power so
often required, while both near and distant
objects are seen with equal facility through
out the same glasses.
I'd. Can be worn with perfect ease for
any length OF time at one sitting, giving
astonishing clearness Of vision, particu
larly by candle or other artificial light
comfort to the spectacle-wearcr hitherto
unknown.
Sd. When the eyes ache or pain through
the acton OF abright light, such as is re-
ncctcd from snow, sunny weather, white
paper and i'll reading, writing or sewing
vivid colors, these lenses, by softcning |.
rays, effect most agreeable sensation,
and gives great relief.

so as to produce 1t with the true spherical
accuracy, and its focus is at the exact
centre, a point Of vital Importance, and
which no other lens possess.
9Th. Proof Of superiority over the old
kind OF spectacles. They are used exclu-
slvely at all the hospitals for diseases Of the
eye, IN Berlin, Prussia, and elsewhere

cdt gentlemen, professors Of he highest

COLUMBIA, $. c., July II, 1S66.-I have
examined great variety OF glasses manu-
!actored !s py rrof; III. Bernhardt, and in JUS
tfce 10 the Professor, must say that his
glasses are OF superior quality, adapted
to meet the wants Of almost every eve
where the vision Is III any way imperfect.
Inc Professor selected tor me pair of his
Australian Crystal Glasses, which are of a
very superior quality and workmanship
rendering vision very distinct, almost as
perfect as in youth. l yield this testimony
in favor of the Professors glasses most
checrfully. d. H. TREZEVANT, N. D.
CoLUMBIA, S. c., July IL. 1861 do most
willingly bear my testimony in favor of the
superiority of the Austrian Crystal Single
and Double Vision Spectacles, over all
other kinds They are constructed unon
tho best established and understood prin-
clples OF optics, and their adaptation to the
human eye in its different conditions of
vision, ls so perfect rs to render sight
easy without effort. In my opinion, none
others should be used, since the ewes once
used to these do not seem to grow old. and
by having focus at any point of the sur
face, they eppear to restore the eyes to
their youthful energy.

COLUMBIA, s. c., July IL, 1S66.-We have
examined the Lenses of Prof BernhaHlt. |
and consider them superior to any we have
seen. They are admirably adapted, not
only to improve the imperfections of i'm
paired sight, but to relieve the weariness
OF vision which constant study produces. |
Many OF the glasses are Of new and inpe- |
NOUS contrlvance. We cordially recon-
mend the Professor to all those who re-
qulre scientific optical assistance.
