ROSS'S PHOTOGRAPHIC PORTRAIT AND LANDSCAPE LENSES.--These lenses give
correct definition at the centre and margin of the picture, and have their
visual and chemical acting foci coincident.
_Great Exhibition Jurors' Report_, p. 274.
"Mr. Ross prepares lenses for Portraiture having the greatest intensity
yet produced, by procuring the coincidence of the chemical actinic and
visual rays. The spherical aberration is also very carefully correct,
both in the central and oblique pencils."
"Mr. Ross has exhibited the best Camera in the Exhibition. It is
furnished with a double achromatic object-lens, about three inches
aperture. There is no stop, the field is flat, and the image very
perfect up to the edge."
A. R. invites those interested in the art to inspect the large Photographs
of Vienna, produced by his Lenses and Apparatus.
Catalogues sent upon Application.
A. ROSS, 2. Featherstone Buildings, High Holborn.

ANCIENT IRISH MINSTRELSY, by REV. W. HAMILTON DRUMMOND, D.D., M.R.S.A.
"A graceful addition to the lover of Ancient Minstrelsy, whether he be
Irishman or not. A man need not be English to enjoy the Chevy Chace, nor
Scotch to value the Border Minstrelsy. The extracts we have given from Dr.
Drummond's work, so full of force and beauty, will satisfy him, we trust,
he need not be Irish to enjoy the fruits of Dr. D.'s labours."--_The Dublin
Advocate._

CO., 4. Stationers' Hall Court.
