Eureka!  Eureka!  Eureka!  Was the exclamation of Archimedes, rushing through the streets of Syracuse, o his discovery of the great principle of Natural Philosophy.—

The world was no less surprised and delighted when Daguerre by the aid f sun-light transferred to the surface of polished silver, the dim picture of landscapes and the Human Face and Form.

But science and skill have now brought Daguerre’s discovery to such a wonderful state of perfection, that it is now left for Moulton to announce to the World that we may no longer search for the most Life-Like perfection in the Daguerreotype Art—For he has—Found It!!  and is now producing at the Picture Gallery, formerly occupied by Mr. Thompson –Ayer’s Building, First Rooms south of Merrimack street,—which he has taken and spendidly (sic.) furnished with large additions to his former stock,—the Truest and most Perfect specimens of his Art that can be Found In The Country!!

This is not a vain boast; and he pledges himself to satisfy the most skeptical on this point Who will Give Him a Trial!

In addition to the above, he would inform the public that he has secured, at great cost, the services of that gentlemanly operator, Frank M. Danielson, formerly from the celebrated Rooms of Masury & Silsbee, in Boston, whose pictures in point of brilliancy, of tone and excellency of finish, cannot be excelled here or elsewhere.

Mr. M. would also state that he is operating by a Sky Light!

An advantage possessed by no other operator in this vicinity, which gives that uniform shade to the face of his subjects so much admired by all artists and persons of taste.

N. B.  Pictures taken equally well in Foul and Fair Weather.

All are invited to call and examine specimens.  Do Not mistake the place,—Ayer’s Building,—(The first Rooms south of Merrimack street,) where you will find The Daguerreotype Rooms of Manchester.  H. D. W. Moulton. Manchester Oct. 30.

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.
