Excerpt from Special Catalogue of the Collective Exhibition of Scientific Instruments and Appliances Exhibited by the Deutsche Gesellschaft Fur Mechanik Und Optik, Berlin Next to it come the university towns and the seats of polytechnical colleges; in which, beside the instrument makers holding official appointments in univer sities and institutions, a number of other instrument-makers are established. This local association of practical manufacture and scientific research and the daily intercourse of makers and scientists greatly favours, by mutual reaction, the growth of this branch of applied science. Beside in Berlin, important. Centers of mechanical art are to be found in Munic, where the great achieve ments of Fraunhofer and Reichenbach are continued by their successors, and in Hamburg, Which, beside excelling in astronomical and surveying instruments and appliances for spectrum analysis. Possesses, as a natural consequence hf its importance as a sea-port, prominent works for the manufacture of chronometric and nautical instruments. In several manufacturing towns the construction of electrical measuring instruments and electro-therapeutical appliances forms a. Prominent feature, e. G.' in Berlin, frankfort-on-the-main, Stuttgart and Erm langen. Important branches of instrument manufacture are also found in many other towns, where production is favoured by special local conditions. It would be impossible to here define the entire extent of the German scientific instrument trade; we must, therefore, limit ourselves to a short. Sketch of its compass.
