            Maguire's Daguerreotype. 
J. M. would respectfully return thanks for the liberal 
patronage bestowed on him since he first had the 
honor of introducing the DAGUERREOTYPE into 
New Orleans five years ago, during which time he 
has taken more portraits than any other person in the 
world.  His specimens were exhibited at the Fair in 
competition with others taken by the best operator 
from New York, and he was awarded the FIRST 
PREMIUM. 
  No specimens exhibited at his establishment but those 
taken by himself. 
  J.M. assures the public his Portraits will continue to 
be what they always have been, the best.  His long expe- 
rience and constant practice are the best inducements 
to persons desirous of instruction in the beautiful art. 
  Genuine Voigtlander Cameras 20 per cent, cheaper 
than any in this city; all other articles the same. 
Plates at $2 40 per dozen; Scorillis[*] No. 1. for $3 25.
