The public journals have al different period,
announced, as remarkable proof ofthe skill and
proficiency of American Artists, that Daguerreo
types now made in this city superior, in cv-
cry respect, to these made in any of the Euro
pean cities This success of American artist
WAS confirmed, in very gratifying and conclus
sive manner, by Mr. Barnum's publicly stating
at the close of his Tom Thumb exhibition in this
city, that Mr.. Root had made i,fty-one good pic
tures, with only single failure. In addition to
which, nlr> r. has been furnished with the fol-
lowing conclusive certificates, signed, it will he

Barnum, his teachers, and secretary, all ofwhom
