THE CAMERA OBSCURA.
TO TIH2 EDITOB.
Sin,—As thero will doubtless be fl great many of your readers down afc St. Clair on Saturday at the swimming tournament, I cannot resist the temptation of trcspasbing on your valuable spsce to recommend them (while there) to visit the " camera obscura." The landscape depicted on iho tablo before the wondering eyes of the spectator is simply charming. Here one has a bright and glowing foreground, wifch its living, moving figures in all tho colours of tho kaleidoscope ; and away in tho background beautiful glimpses ol" hill and dale, of land and sea, which finally merge into the azure vault of a summer sky. I have visited cameras of the same kind in other parts ofthe world, and can conscientiously say thafc this one is superior to any I have seen.— I bid, &c, Isle of Man. Dunedln, February 12.
