Daguerreotype Likenesses.—An excellent opportunity is now presented to all who desire to obtain correct and finished pictures of themselves or their friends. By our advertising columns it will be observed that Mr. C. Allen has again returned to his post, and will be happy to catch a life-like shadow of every one, who may wish his professional services in that line. Mr. Allen has experience, taste and every facility for securing a finished and life-like picture.
It will also be observed that Messrs. Dannison Cone & Co., have taken apartments over the store of Messrs. Bingham & Stevens, and invite the public to give them a call. We stepped in a day or two since, and found some most beautiful specimens of their art lying upon the table. In the show case we observed various, ad admirably executed pictures, some of whom were Claremont friends. Many persons are under the impression, that a more correct and finished picture can be obtained in the city than in the country. This is a mistake. With a good apparatus, the advantages are all on the side of the country. The atmosphere is clearer, the light is better, and far more perfect pictures can be obtained. Any city artist will acknowledge this.
