It is a new and unequalled means of preserving the lineaments of those who are esteemed or loved; of retaining the perfect likeness of members of families, or friends who are separated, or about separating ; of conveying a faithful impression of the living countenance to and from friends long parted and at great distances : these, and the gratification of the family and social circle in * the beautiful miniature representation of its own members, the almost speaking portraits of friends, present or absent, with the melancholy satisfaction to relatives pf retaining the perfect resemblance of the lost in death, —these are some of the many objects of deep and touching interest to which this most surprising and delightful Art is applied. MINIATURES, LANDSCAPES, and subjects of every description accurately copied, and neatly set in Morocco Cases, Gold Lockets, Rings, or Breast-pins. A great variety of Beautiful STEREOSCOPES and MARINE GLASSES on Sale. The Art carefully taught, and Apparatus of the finest and beat manufacture supplied on liberal terms.
