There is probably no art or industry which r* quires— for the production of good work— greater oarennd attention to dtifciife than does the art of photography. The public are little aware ofthtf numerous appliances and processes used m a firstclass photograpluc establishment. A Tisit to Mr Mnrtin s studio at 'Wangnuni will prove this to ta so, for it is here we find numerous roonw, each having its own dep;»rtmental Av6rk and a staff of assistants to cany on that work. ; We also find elecinoityis employed m .producing, the beaqtifiUi stippled ellect for which Mr Martin's work- is so much admired. But the most Interesting and, we must say, to our mind, the moat complicated process is th-ii of enamelling ; tlie marvellous beauty mi, pirted to the pho/.ograph by this process is truly ;wto"islii!ig. And we ure itssurrcd by Mr Martin that the euamelli:ig npfc only produces this beauti, ful appearance, but readers the picturp permanent by means of its :;ir-tight and damp-proof coating. A visit to Wangauui, if for notluug else than to ha photographed at Mr Martin's, would be a highly sutisfaetorj- way of «i>emliiig a day.— [4dvt ] •
