There is probably no art or industry wiitch re quires -for the production of good work— prrenter oiro nnd attention to details timn does the art of photofcranliy. Tlie 'piililic are little aware of tlie numerous appliances, wrt processes nserl m n. first: dlass photographic establishment. A vlsifc to Mr Martin's studio at Wnngamii will prove thijitobu ao. for it is liere we find numerous rooms, etch having its own departmental work nnd a staff of assistants to carry on Hint work. Wi> also fluri electricity Is emnloywl m nroilncine the lmaiitLful stinnled ofTcct for which Martin's work i* so mnoli nrimired. But Hip most interrstinir nnd/ we must sny. to our mind, tlie most wwmlio-itpd process is tint of enamcllinpr: the nvinrclloiis liennty impnrtcrt to the ii''otoarrapli by this process i« trnlv aßtonisliin&f. And avo nrn nasnrrofl hy Arr'MnrHn that the enamelling not only produces this heanti. ful appeirnnro. but renders the picture permanent by moans of its nir-tisht and ilamn-prnnf coatlnsr. A visit to Wancanni. if for nothinf» else tlian to bo photopraphod at Mr Martin's, would be n highly •atlsfactory way of apeuding.a day,— f A.DVT.)
