Denison in the Daguerrean Gallery, at the corner of Washington avenue and Third street, takes this opportunity of thanking the public for their liberal patronage of the old firm, and begs leave to say, that, although he has not the finest gallery in the United States, nor the likenesses of all the Distinguished Persons in the country, yet his rooms are always comfortable and his customers will always be [ ? ] with politeness and respect.

As for Daguerreotypes, he flatters himself that he can take as good a picture for one dollar and fifty cents as can be had at any other rooms in St. Louis for twice the money, and [moreover] he pledges himself to do it for all who may favor him with a call.  J. J. Outley.
