Daguerreotypes!  The Largest Rooms in the City!!  Two Lights, Two Operating Rooms.  J. Q. Currier, Invites the attention of citizens and strangers to his extensive Daguerrean Establishment, at No. 88 Merrimack street, the largest and best arranged of any in the city. Two distinct and spacious Operating Rooms, together with skilful and practiced operators enable him to furnish his patrons with Pictures in the highest style of art with the latest possible delay.

His large skylight, added the past season, containing 240 square feet of glass, is admirably adapted to the taking of Large Pictures and Groups, and in this branch the proprietor will Challenge Competition!  A share of attention will be devoted to the much admired Crayon Daguerreotypes.

These Pictures have the appearance and effect of very fine Crayon Drawings, and will not fail to merit the approbation of a refined taste.

Colored Daguerreotypes!  A new process of coloring Daguerreotypes has just been introduced, and is used by the subscriber with great success.  A perfectly life like appearance is given to the countenance and expression by this process, unattainable by any other.

Great pains will be taken in the execution of Children’s Portraits!  Pictures Enlarged And Copied.

Mr. Currier is assisted in his business by Mr. M. H. Lufkin, an Artist of taste and experience, and, between the two, he is confident he will be able to merit a large and continued share of the patronage of his friends and the public generally. 

Specimen Pictures May be seen at his rooms, which for [beauty] and delicacy he is willing to have compared with the most favorable specimens of the art.

All, then, therefore, in search of a good Daguerreotype, are invited to call at Currier’s Daguerreotype Rooms, Concert Hall Building, No. 82 Merrimack street, Lowell.

The Ambrotype is taken upon white glass, and surpasses everything of the kind ever offered to the public.  There is a distinctness of outline and beauty of finish in these pictures, which present every feature with surprising clearness, and as permanent as time.  Ambrotypes taken at all times, either in pleasant or cloudy weather.

Particular attention paid to taking Likenesses in Lockets, and Pins, which he is prepared to do in the highest style of the srt, no matter how small the articles may be.

Ambrotypes.

“Blest be the art that can immortalize.

The art that baffles time’s tyrannic claim

To quench it.

Thus wrote Cowper more than a century ago, and so thinks those who, wishing thems leves to be immortalized, look into that Daguerrean Car Stationed on Market street, near Western Reserve Bank, where Mr. Crombaugh takes capital Ambrotypes.  His plan of hermetically sealing two glass plates together, with the picture between, must make the likeness imperious to air, consequently indestructible by time.  Those who wish to see themselves as others see them, should give him a call; and those who wish their pictures to look a little better than themselves, can be cheered by our experience.

Editor Of The Courier:—Allow a lover of the beautiful to express through the columns of your paper, the pleasure experienced in viewing in the Studio of Mr. J. D. Crocker, the portraits of two well known and esteemed ladies of Norwich, one of whom is now no more.  One picture is nearly life size, and the other is a large colored photograph.  They are both perfect as representations of their originals, and as works of art are not to be excelled by any thing of the kind to be found in cities that make much more pretensions than Norwich to a patronage of the arts.  Mr. Cocker’s decided superiority as a painter of natural scenery has been long known and acknowledged.  His success in this new branch of his art is equally certain and complete.  If to behold a perfect likeness and a most beautiful and finished picture, can impart any pleasure to the mind, that happiness may certainly be enjoyed by a call at his Studio before the removal from it of the above works from his pencil.

The Funeral of Samuel Crobaugh.  The funeral of the late Samuel Crobaugh took place yesterday at his late residence, No. 1035 Bolton.  Mr. Crobaugh was an old citizen of Cleveland, and in his long residence here he made many friends who were present at his funeral and showed their respect for his memory by numerous touching tributes.  He was one of  the pioneer daguerreotype artists of this city, and was for years well known to the Cleveland public.  He was a man of a very amiable, kindly, and generous disposition and few persons have lived to his age—seventy-two years—and remained through all circumstances the same cheerful and unruffled temper.  All who knew him deeply mourned his death, and while the immediate members of his family were overcome with grief, there were many sad faces and eyes wet with tears among the attendants at his funeral.  The funeral services were very touching and simple.  Rev. F. L. Hosmer read appropriate selections from the Scriptures and made a few fitting and touching remarks.  The remains were deposited in the vault at Woodland Cemetery.  The Pall bearers were H. M. Addison, J. Blackburn, and E. D. Stark. Mr. Crobaugh leaves a wife, a son, Professor Frank Crobaugh, chemist of the Stewart Iron Works, of Sharon, Pa., a sister, Mrs. Mary Woodworth, and his brother, Daniel Crobaugh.

We desire to call the attention of our readers to the fact that Mr. Cridland some time ago opened a Photographic Gallery on 3d st., south side, near St. Clair, where, we are pleased to learn, he has succeeded in establishing a good custom.  Mr. C. is a first class artist, and thoroughly understands his business, and his old patrons will be glad to learn that he has opened a gallery, and they will surely call.—We desire our readers to give Cridland a trial.
