W., and Robert Campbell, of Philadelphia. Mr. Douglas goes out as an Artist, Photographer, &c., Mr. Campbell as a Naturalist and Botanist. Their object is to explore the fertile valley of the Niger, the region known as the Yoruba county, and ascertain whether the reports which have been rendered will warrant an emigration to that land.

Pictures. T. V. M. Doughty, who has taken the rooms occupied by Landon in the building adjoining our office, is sustaining the former high reputation of the Gallery for pictures not to be surpassed, and not often equalled (sic.). Daguerreotypes have for the most part given place to the more modern and more valuable Ambrotypes; but Mr. Doughty is equally at home in all styles and improvements of the art. Those still preferring a photograph he can gratify, and while we felicitate ourself upon the possession of a gentlemanly and clever neighbor, our gratulations extend to our community in its possession of an excellent resident artist. Winstead Herald.

The above is true, even if the Winsted Herald does say it. Mr. Doughty is one of the best artists in the State. Wonder if friend Clark didn’t [notice.]

Fire Last Night—Several Business Establishments on River And Congress Streets Destroyed—Heavy Loss.—About 12½ o’clock last night, a fire was discovered in the finishing room over the hat store of Mr. Benjamin Hatch, No. 158 River Street…No. 156…In the upper story Mr. C. C. Doty had a daguerreotype and Ambrotype Establishment. His loss is about $800—of which $300 was in money burned. No insurance.

Fire This Morning.—About two o’clock this morning, a fire broke out in the building on the South-East corner of Second and Albany streets, in a room occupied by C. C. Doty, Daguerrean artist. The flames were discovered by two night-policemen, who at once sounded an alarm, and burst into the room. The several Companies belonging to the Fire Department were on hand before the flames had made much progress; there was an abundance of water on hand, and by a judicious application of their resources, they were enabled to confine the fire to the portion of the building in which it originated.

Mr. Doty, daguerrean, loses nearly everything in his establishment. He was insured in the Phoenix Insurance Co., for $800, which in all probability fully cover his loss.

They are perfect Gems of Beauty. They have received the highest commendations from good judges of Art, and it has been the wonder of every one who examined the specimens, how human art or skill could counterfeit Nature to such perfection.

The Hillotype is made on Glass and Metal Plates, and also on paper, and they are indestructible be either climate or acids.—The only place these Gems of Art are made at the subscribers saloon, Corner of Albany and Second sts., Troy,.

This improvement in Picture making belongs exclusively to the subscriber—he having spent considerable money and time to bring this beautiful process to perfection. He is now prepared to lay it before the Public for inspection, and earnestly invite them to call and examine specimens at his Rooms, corner of Albany and Second streets, when they will be convinced of their merit over all other Pictures executed by the Camera.

The Hillotype will not cost any more than the ordinary Daguerreotype or Ambrotype, and for beauty of expression and the exquisite delicacy of the shading and sharpness of outline, the Daguerreotype or Ambrotype can bear no comparison with the Hillotype. The subscriber intends to Patent his improvement, when he will sell to Artist throughout the States and Europe the right to use it.

The subscriber has no connection with any other establishment in Troy. The Hillotype is made only by him at his new Rooms, Corner Of Albany and Second Sts.., Troy, N. Y., opposite the Mansion House—Entrance No. 8 Second st.

Photographic Miniature Portraits.—Art has achieved a signal triumph in the Introduction of crystalotype likenesses. In the hands of competent artists, Photography is destined to supersede miniature painting on ivory altogether. The process is simple and sure. The likeness is first daguerreotyped on glass, and then transferred to a very fine paper, prepared especially for the purpose. They are then colored to the life. The likenesses thus taken has all the accuracy of a daguerreotype, and all the beauty and finish of a painting. They are much larger than the ordinary miniature, and can be furnished at about one-fourth the cost of the latter. We noticed that our old friend, J. W. Dodge, formerly of this city, and whose skill as a miniature painter is well known here, has been for some taking likenesses upon this plan. He is associated with Mr. Augustus Wenderoth, one of the finest artist in the Country. We have before us a highly complimentary notice of their pictures from the St. Louis Republican.

We are pleased to learn that Messrs. Dodge & Wenderoth will be in this city early October, and will open rooms for a short stay.—With the high reputation which Mr. D. enjoys here, and the acknowledge talent of his associate, there can be no doubt that they will find a lucrative patronage ready for them.

The Fine Arts—Photographic Miniature Portraits.—We take pleasure in calling the attention of our readers to the card of Messrs. Dodge & Wenderoth in this morning’s paper. Mr. Dodge is well known in this community as an artist who has no superior in this country in his peculiar department—miniatures on Ivory. Hundreds of his pictures are in the possession of persons in Nashville alone—and whoever has the likeness of a valued friend from his pencil has a “thing of beauty” which will certainly be “a joy forever.” Mr. D. has associated with him Mr. Wenderoth, an artist of the highest accomplishment, as an examination of some of his specimens will abundantly satisfy anyone. Together they will not only furnish our citizens with those inimitable miniatures on ivory—celebrated wherever known—but what will prove, we believe, even more acceptable, are to furnish Photographic Miniature Portraits—a style of picture which is destined to a very great extent to supersede all others. They present at once the faithfulness and accuracy of the daguerreotype, together with the beauty, finish, naturalness and ease of an oil painting—which they in reality are, more than any thing else. The photographic process transfers to paper the form and feature with unmistakable accuracy in the minutest particulars, while the delicate touch of the artist’s pencil—a pencil already famous even without this aid—brings out in bold and striking relief a counterfeit presentment of the subject, perfect almost beyond credulity.—This photographic process enables the artist to enlarge the size of their pictures, and to prepare them with less labor, as well as more accuracy, and consequently at a reduced cost. We advise those of our readers who are fond of the beautiful in art, after giving the card of Messrs. Dodge & Wenderoth a reading, to call and examine some of their specimens, of which they have a few. We can guarantee to the most matter-of-fact individual that he will find something in them to excite emotions of pleasure, and that he will at once resolve to have himself or some friend “done up” in their inimitable style.

To The Public. A Card.

Augustus Wenderoth, and he feels assured, from their success in another State, that their efforts in their profession cannot fail to be received with favor by the lovers of Art in Tennessee. Nashville, Dec. 23d, 1855. John W. Dodge.

Dodge & Wenderoth, the distinguished artists, will take a Photographic view of the interior of the House of Representatives, with the members (and we presume their lady friends in the gallery,) this morning at 10 o’clock, if the day proves a favorable one. If the day should be unfavorable, the picture will be taken on the first bright day following, at the same hour. The interior of the Senate chamber will be taken on the day after that of the House, at the same hour, if the weather is fair.

Interior View Of The Hall. Mr. Parks submitted a resolution which had just been put into his hands, inviting Messrs. Dodge & Wenderoth, Photographic Artists, (conformably to their application,) to take a Photographic Miniature of the House of Representatives at any time it may suit their convenience, and requesting the Door-keepers to extend to them the necessary freedom of the Hall and facilities for that object: and he moved that the rule be suspended for its consideration.

And, accordingly, the rule was suspended, and the resolution was adopted….The Speaker read to the House a communication from Dodge, the Photographic Artists, stating that he would be prepared to take his interior view of the Hall to morrow (Friday) morning at 10 o’clock, if it should be a fair day; and, if not, on the first fair day following, at the same hour….

Photographic Miniature Portraits. The studio of our friends, Messrs. Dodge & Wenderoth, over Hicks’ China Hall, north side of the square, has become the very general resort of that large class of our citizens of both sexes so justly celebrated for their high appreciation and liberal patronage of every thing truly excellent in the fine arts. The reputation of Nr, Dodge alone as a miniature painter on ivory, in this city, where he has been so long and so favorably known, is of itself sufficient to attract all connoisseurs. But there are other no less important features connected with his studio. The introduction of the new style of pictures, known as Photographic Miniature Portraits, proves a most successful card. These pictures, when painted, possess all the beauty of the ivory miniature, and, in addition, all the accurateness of outline and feature of the daguerreotype. Besides they have the advantage in point of size, and are less expense in proportion. Mr. Wenderoth is himself one of the most accomplished miniature painters in the country, as the specimens of his workmanship abundantly prove. In the art of Photographing he is entirely au fait, and with his superior apparatus can exhibit pictures equal, if not superior, to any ever taken in this or any other country.

Mr. Dodge has recently returned from a visit to his family in the mountains, and is prepared, in connection with Mr. W., to attend to all orders. Photographic Miniature Portraits can be readily taken from Daguerreotypes or Portraits. We recommend those who wish to see something really superior to visit the studio of Dodge & Wenderoth.

Our old friend Dobyns, the extensive Daguerreotypist, has just returned from New York, bringing with him many late and valuable improvements in the Daguerrean Art. He can be seen for a few days only, at his rooms, over S. Fowlkes & Co’s store, as he intends leaving this week for New Orleans, where we learn he is doing a splendid business in his line. We understand that Col. Yearout, who has for some time past been associated with Mr. Dobyns, is now in Philadelphia, with the great Daguerreotypist, Root, but is daily expected to return with other new improvements, and then between Dobyns, Yearout and Lipman, at the firm of Dobyns & Yearout, in this city—The very best likenesses of the “human face divine,” can be procured.

Dobyns’ & Co.—So far as we have had an opportunity of observing, we do not hesitate to pronounce the Daguerrean establishment of Messrs. Dobyn’s & Co., the finest and most extensive in this city. Mr. Lipman, a very polite and accommodating young gentleman, is the artist, who now has the management of the establishment; Messrs. Dobyns and Yearout, both being absent the former at New Orleans, and the latter at Nashville. A few days since we were shown by Mr. Lipman some fine specimens of pictures, executed by him. They were indeed superior to any we have seen in a long time. Those would see them selves as they are seen by others, have only to call for a few minutes on Messrs. Dobyns & Co.,—corner of Main & Adams streets.

The Fine Arts. Amongst the numerous enterprises that are being pushed forward in our city, we notice the Daguerreian Establishment of Messrs. Dobbins [sic.] & Yearout, 59 College Street, over the dry goods store of Messrs. Stevenson & White. We visited their galleries yesterday and found them fitting up their rooms and instruments. One or both of these gentlemen have been absent from our city a considerable portion of the summer, visiting a number of the principal cities of the United States, where they also have similar establishments. We are informed that they have secured the services of the celebrated artist, Mr. Mallory, who has been operating heretofore in the larger cities, North and West, and we have no doubt he will sustain here the high reputation that he has acquired in other places. Here is what the St. Louis Herald says of him:

‘Look On This Picture.’—The other day we were shown some of the finest specimens of the Daguerrean art ever seen in this city. These pictures were life-like, mellow and beautiful. They were taken by Mr. Mallory. It may not be generally known, but there is as much difference in daguerreotypes as between cheese and chalk.—Some operators take pictures which others would be ashamed of. Those who want a first-rate picture should call and get Mallory to ‘point his machine at them’ for about half a minute, and we will agree to treat if he doesn’t produce a ‘counterfeit presentment’ which will give satisfaction.”

We are also informed by the proprietors of this establishment that in addition to furnishing daguerreotype likenesses of the very first order, at very moderate prices, they import directly from Europe and the Eastern cities every description of stock used in their line, which they can and will sell to traveling operators as low as they can buy in New York, or elsewhere in the United States. Such enterprise deserves encouragement.
