 ASTRONOMICAL TELESCOPES. 
 
 J. H. Dallmeyer begs to state 1 , 'that he was the sole person initiated 
 by the late Andrew Ross in all his processes for the production of the 
 Astronomical Telescope (tli6 whole of whMi fkculty he has also bequeathed 
 to him), ainlJiaidu^ hpji thft exclusive maker of them for years past; 
 (during which time many improvements haVe been effected,) lie has arrived 
 at a practice Avliich insures the perfection of this important instrument.

 TERRESTRIAL TELESCOPES. 
 
 The Object-Glasses of these Telescopes, have their contact surfaces 
 united by a permanently transparent cCinent, which, not only obviates the 
 loss of light by reflection; but also, prevents decomposition of the glasses,-: 
 otherwise often experienced when used in damp climates or at sea. 
 
 Each object-glass is composed of three different kinds of. glass, by the 
 employment Of which, J. H. D. has been enabled still further to increase 
 their aperture's in relation'to their foci ;' thus obtaining much greater 
 “ illuminating' power.” The aberrations,' both spherical and chromatic, 
 are also most'carefully corrected; giving a clear and well defined image, 
 free from all outstanding colour. 
 
 Attention has also been devoted to the perfecting of "Eye-Pieces^’ As 
 will be seen by inspection of List, they are mostly " pancrkiic,**' enabling 
 the observer at once to alter the magnifying power of his telescope, (within 
 certain limits,) simply, by drawing out or pushing in the first tube, which fits 
 rather tightly into the first or smallest draw-tube., 
 
 The great desideratum, therefore, of possessing a sufficiently “ low ” 
 power (combined with a large and flat field of view) for use in dull weather, 
 or near the sea side, is obtained in one and the same instrument.

 ACHROMATIC OBJECT GLASSES FOR 
 MICROSCOPES. 
 
 The late A It. having bequeathed to J. H. 3D. one-half of the imple¬ 
 ments, &c., used for the production of the Object-Classes, together with 
 his entire practical expedience; J. II. 11. begs to announce, that the Objectives 
 herein named, are the resutfs.of protracted-, an;ilytic, Gli<!ptric caleidatkms ; in 
 which, all the improvements [pointed out by more recent investigations, have 
 been introduced. 
 
 'The Apertures off the various Powers have been carried to a maximum, 
 for general utility mA effect. 
 
 Pius, for instance, the new and improved quarter-inch Object-Glass, 
 nngtilar aperture 120 degrees, (exhibited at the Soiree of the Micro¬ 
 scopical Society in March, TSfiOj) possesses the following advantages:— 
 
 The definition is equally perfect at the centre and margin of the field; 
 
 the oblique as well as the central pencils having been corrected. 
 
 The distance between the Object aiid Objective, lias been made the 
 greatest possible, consistent with other qualities of excellence. 
 
 The Objective works through thicker covering glass, and its aberrations 
 can also be balanced for an uncovered object. Important for many 
 . (purposes of research. 
 
7 
 
 By the form of construction adopted, the number of reflecting surfaces 
 lias been diminished by two, and, consequently,, much greater illu¬ 
 minating power is obtained; also, 
 
 The front or anterior surface has been made concave, to prevent the 
 loss of light by reflection at the first. incidence, attending all large 
 angles,of aperture. 
 
 Four different kinds of glass are used in its construction, by the em¬ 
 ployment of which, the secondary spectrum is almost completely connected. 
 
 The perfection of definition, resulting, is such that the highest power 
 eye-pieces can be used with “ advantage.” 
 
 The other powers are constructed upon the same principles, and possess 
 the same advantages.

 PORTRAIT LENSES. 
 
 [possessing the ORDINARY INTENSITY.] 
 
 The Visual and Chemical foci are coincident, andrdhe Lenses are free from 
 aberration, both at the centre and margin of the picture . 
 
 See J. H. D.’s Paper read at the Meeting of the London Photographic 
 Society in June, I860, (Photographic Journal, June 15 th.) 
 
 1 These ■ Lenses, as-described in the above paper, are constructed prin¬ 
 cipally for Portraiture, and possess the- following advantages:—greater 
 rapidity of action over the whole extent of plate ; nearly perfect flatness 
 of field, and when used with a diaphragm, produce an image “free from 
 distortion.” • " • 
 
 Nos. 1, 2, and 3, can also be used for Groups, Architecture, and Land¬ 
 scapes, by employing su^ciently small slops. Thus, No. 3 Lens will 
 produce, with full aperture; pbrtfms’ G| bv 4f; with a large stop, groups 
 82 by 62 ; wftU' small stops, Architectural Views, &c;, 10 by 8 /(free from 
 distortion); and with front lens oply,.Landscapes ,!2 by 10 . 
 
 For the most perfect results in Architecture and Landscape, J. H. D.’s 
 new “Triple Achromatic Lens ” is recommended. 
 
 The Apertures of all the stops supplied with J. H. D's Lenses {Portraits, Views , 
 and Landscapes) are so arranged thcpt,' cpunlingfrom the largest to the next size 
 smaller, the time of exposure is doubled. Stops marked X are an exception to 
 this rule , and require an exposure only hale as long again as the preceding 
 LARGER stop.

 DALLMEYER’S 
 
 QUICK-ACTING PORTRAIT LENSES. 
 
 Nos. 1 B and 2 B, (introduced November, I 860,) are especially constructed 
 for Carte de Visite Portraits. 
 
 “Several quick-acting Lenses, with flat field and fine definition,' 
 especially adapted for Card-Portraits and other larger Pictures, have 
 been invented by Mr. Dallmeyer .”—Vide Report of Jurors, International 
 Exhibition . i/ j 
 
 “ We have seeu these pictures taken almost iustautaueously by. a small Lens 
 made by Mr. Dallmeyer, we believe especially for this kind of work .”—Photographic 
 Journal , Aug. 15, 1861. 
 
 “ Examples of QUICk-actixg Portrait Lenses for Pictures, from card size upwardsj 
 are shown, and have their powers illustrated from the studios of Williams* Lacy, 
 Robiqsop, Mayland, Hawke, Abbott, and others. We are almost disposed to thiuk 
 that as charming a display of photography is to be found amongst these specimens 
 as there is in any part of the building .”—Photographic News, Aug. 29, 1862. 
 
 The Prize Pictures by Mr. T. R. Williams; as also the only prize CARTES 
 DE VISITE at the International Exhibition, by Mr. Robinson, were taken with 
 these Lenses, the former with No. .4 13, flic latter with No. 2 B: also those by Mr. 
 Mullips yvith No. 1 B. 
 
 The Card Pictures by Mr. Joubert, so highly oommeuded by the Jurors of the 
 recent Photographic Exhibition, were taken with No. 1 13. Lenses : also, the Card 
 Portraits of the Prixcess Alexandra, Piux.ce of Wales, and other Members 
 of the Royal Family, &«., recently publishad by Mr. Mayall, and so highly eulogized 
 by The Tones and other Papers, were taken with No. 2 B Lenses. 
 
 All the Stereoscopic Views pf the International Exhibition, by Mr. EngJpud and 
 others,* were taken with 1 13 Lenses.

 DALLMEYIR S HEW TRIPLE ACHROMATIC LENS 
 
 {freefrom distortion.) 
 
 For Architectural Yiews, Copying, &c., also foe Landscapes 
 and Gequps. (Inteoduced. August, I860.*) 
 
 “ The Triple Achromatic Lens invented by Mr. Dallmeyer _is free from 
 
 chromatic and spherical aberrations. The images produced by this lens are quite 
 free from distortion, a wide angle of view, with good definition, is included 
 by it. In the hands of the Jurors, these qualities have been satisfactorily proved, 
 aud in the beautiful landscapes (by Mr. Wilson and others) produced by this Lens, 
 and exhibited in the building, additional confirmation is obtained .”—Set Report 
 of Juiors, page. 8.. 
 
 “ Amongst .the most, interesting noy cities in the optics, of photography, both 
 from its novelty of construction, perfection of delineation, and the varied utility of 
 its applications, is a triple achromatic combination by Dallmeyer. From the 
 extent of angle ,it embraces^ and defines well with a large aperture, it is especially 
 valuable for pictorial landscape purposes' in which it often happens with otherTehSes,' 
 that pictorial effect is lost from the small angle of view embraced. Another pecu¬ 
 liarity of this Tens, as • evidenced in its productions exhibited, is the power of 
 delineating, with sufficient definition, objects spread over many planes at different 
 distances, such, for instance, as the entire nave of the Exhibition from wife eu£ to the 
 other. This lens, the invention of which was very properly rewarded by a Medal, 
 may be regarded as typical of .the progress which has been made in the optical 
 appliances of photography.”— Vide “ Practical Mechanics' Journalf page 566. 
 
 The “ Triple Achromatic Lens,’” although principally constructed for views and 
 copying, is also, well adapted for Portraiture in the open air. Thus, the Prize 
 Pictures, .“ Life Studies,” by Viscountess Haw.arden, pronounced as the gems of the 
 Exhibition, were taken with No. 1, Triple Lens, full aperture. For use in the studio 
 it is, however, considerably slower in action than a properly constructed Portrait Lens. 
 
 By removing (; unscrewing ) the central, small, or negative lens, and using the 
 front and back positive combinations only, the bach focus is shortened by about 
 one-half ; the time of exposure is now nearly the same as with the ordinary Portrait 
 Lens, but the curvature of field is greater* and therefore, it should only he-used for 
 Vignette heads or the like.
