Messrs. Davis & Perry have opened rooms at 257 Washington street, Boston, that are said to be truly magnificent.  We are well acquainted with Mr. Perry, and know him to be one of the best Daguerreotypist in the United States.  He has a fine taste, excellent judgment in his art, and executes admirable pictures.  He will undoubtedly command a large share of the patronage of so critical a city as Boston.
