BRIGHAM YOUNG. —_—_——

Dead is the Patriach and Prophet—

Nay, smile.not.at his titles now; 2 You do pot think them good—whiat of it?

Leave the dead laurels on bis brow, For there.are those who have revered him, Whose firm belle?

From every taint of mortal weakness cleared bim;, Respect at least their grief.

What though wé kuow him seif deluded In many things that he pas done?

Shall he for all time be denuded

Of honor he has fairly won?

‘Lhe waste which he has filled with flowers Sings in his praise,

The usefulness we reckon ba® by hours

1

Lasts till the end of days. We sneer at things which he held holy; \re we then certain of the fight? ix there vo truth, but iv us solely— Can we alone be right? It may be—but who knows the morrow: Faith may be strong. And t! -trongest may find to his ~ row [lst he alone is wrong.

OUR NEW STUDIO,

we would inform them that we have now jincreased facilities for the production of 'tist-class work, and are prepared to make | PHoroGRaPHS ~f a Style and Quality that ‘has never been before altempled in this City. We have on exhibition, at our Rooms, a jlarge number of Photograps «f every variety, including the

BEAUTIFUL PHOTO - ENAMEL

the most beautifal style of Photograph | kuown, possessing a softness and delicacy ,of coloring that has never been equalled. | This elegant picture has become deservedly | popular elsewhere, and cannot fail to be- {come so here.

| ‘Though the fluish of our Photographs |cannot be excelled, We would direct atten- jtion to the beautitul

Glace Pictures

which we make. They possess a highly enamelled surface, and are practically indes- tructible, and will retain their freshness ,and beauty for any length of time. {f they become soiled they can easily be cleaned, as they will not lose aay of their beauty by being wet, ‘This valuable quality, com- bined with their remarkable elegance, make them very suitable for presents; while the difficulty of their production wil] prevent them ever becoming so common as tO lessen their value. Our patrons cav have one or all of their Photos finished in this style—an advantage which cannot be obtained elsewhere.

We give special attention to making Greups of Fam lies, Societies, Schools, &ce.

Our pictures of children are sufficient evidence of our success in this difficult branch of our art.

Qur YNLARGEMEN1S, finished in India Ink, Pastel, Creyon, Oil and Water Colors, have made a favorable reputation for them- selves throughout the Lower Provinces.

Parties intending to have Photographs made will tind it to their advantage to sit early, as the number of our cu;tomers makes Some delay in the delivery of the Photos unavoidable. We prefer to have our sitters come by appointment,

Pholographs can be obtained for lesa money elsewhere ; but in this case we ask that quality be given the preference; as- suring the public that they will flad our charges very moderate.
