Sir David Brew- ster found means to obtain multiplied images of such objects as flowers, trees, and even per- sons or things in motion : and thus the im- portance of the instrument was greatly increased. Some kaleidoscopes have been executed in such a manner that the two mhrors may be placed at any required angle with one another ; by which means the images in the visible field of view may be varied at pleasure. The instrument is capable also of being constructed so that the multiplied image ma...y be projected on a screen, and thus made visible at one time to many spectators. Again, Dr. Roget has shown that the properties of the instrument may be greatly extended by employing, instead of two, three and even four plain mirrors, united together at their edges so as to form a hollow prism, or a frustum of a pyramid, the reflecting surfaces being to- wards the interior. These are called poly- central kaleidoscopes. KAMTCHATKA.
