Daguerreotypes.  Mr. Davis has returned to Cadiz, where he intends remaining permanently; and grateful for the liberal patronage extended to him since his return, begs leave to inform the public that he is prepared to take Likenesses in the best and most improved style.

He has discovered a process of taking Likenesses, which obviates that dark shading on one side of the face, so unnatural and foreign to good taste, and distributes the light evenly all over the whole face, and entire person, giving a roundness to the features and a beauty to the expression, not seen in the dark shaded pictures.

He also calls attention to a new mode of taking Likenesses, which gives the picture a rich appearance.  The back ground being of an ivory whiteness, the picture has a prominence and relief that is at once beautiful and commanding.

He is prepared to take Likenesses in groups or singly, of aged persons, or of small children, in all kinds of weather: put up in fancy or plain cases, in lockets, breast pins, or finger-rings: and be the Likeness ever so small, it is as perfect as when on a large scale.  He takes pleasure in inviting all persons to come and examine his specimens, whether they wish Likenesses or not, all shall be made welcome.  Rooms—under the Republican office.
