These rates afford high inducements to agents

Last LikenSs Of Genera Jacks0R
The admirable Daguerreotype Of General Jack
son, taken by Anthony, Edwards, & Co. few
weeks before his death, has been purchased for the
use of the Democratic Review. 1t is in the hands
of the artist, and will be engraved in the finest
style of mezzo,nt OF extra size. II is most beau
tful and interesting work, declared by Mr. Van
Buren, and others to give more perfect idea ofthe
good and great old man than ary other likeness;
and ought to be possessed and framed by evey
friend who loves or reveres his memory. Those
who subscribe early will receive il as one of the
regular series of Portraits.
