An Electric Microscope.
An interesting exhibition of microscopic views of objects projected on a screen by meano of the electric light was recently introduced from Paris at the Crystal Palace. To show how much the views, are enlarged, a section of a butterfly's wing occupied the whole screen which took up one side of the entertainment court. The eye of a fly is magnified no less than four million times its natural size.
