&REAT IMPROVEMENT IN THE DA
GUERREOTYPE ART.—M. A. UOO'PS
Daguerreotypes, 140 Chestnut St. HIPLADEL
PHI A, having been pronounced superior, in the
cities of Europe and the United Stales, and been
juatiwvarded in the city of N. York the’GRKAT
PRIZE of “the FIRST MEDAL for the BEST
Daguerreotypes, 11 again calls attention to his
later and still more valuable improvements. This
lost is thus noticed by the Evening Bulletin:
Tlic Ti iie Light.
M. A. Root, the great Daguerreotypist of this
city, has fitted up a room in the third story of his
establishment, expressly to obtain the manifest
advantage of the northern light. The light from
that direction is necessarily sought by all paint
ers, because of its firmness and uniformity, and
Mr. Hoot, with consummate fact, resolved to avail
himself of this aid, to correct shadows.
The Boston Allas speaks, of the portraits by the
distinguished Daguerreotypist, M. A..Root,and
was astonished to find that the art had been carried
to such a high jegree of perfection. Mr. Root,by
some new chemical discoveries, has been enabled
to transfer the human countenance to the Daguer
reotype pla.lo with an accuracy and fidelity alto
pettier inconceivable. Even tho joyous and laugh
ing face of tho infant is transferred in an instant
to the enduring silver plate with astonishing accu
racy, notwithstanding in infant life there is scarce,
ly a second of lime, during working hours, when
the body is entirely al rcsh .
The North American and United Stales Gazette
. says.jsf a Family Group of Mr, Root—.“lt was
universally acknowledged worthy of being class
ed among the first triumphs Of this heaven-born
art. 11 . ‘
Tho City Item says—“ Wo are. delighted as
