SPECTACLES.--WM. ACKLAND applies his medical knowledge as a Licentiate of

the Apothecaries' Company, London, his theory as a Mathematician, and his

practice as a Working Optician, aided by Smee's Optometer, in the selection

of Spectacles suitable to every derangement of vision, so as to preserve

the sight to extreme old age.

ACHROMATIC TELESCOPES, with the New Vetzlar Eye-pieces, as exhibited at the

Academy of Sciences in Paris. The Lenses of these Eye-pieces are so

constructed that the rays of light fall nearly perpendicular to the surface

of the various lenses, by which the aberration is completely removed; and

with a telescope so fitted gives one-third more magnifying power and light

than could be obtained by the old Eye-pieces. Prices of the various sizes

on application to
