INSTANTANEOUS PoRTRAlTs.-Thc
Scientific American says. that instanta-
neous portraits can now be taken with
col!odion by very ingenious French
invention. The person whose portrait
is to be taken is placed ut some distance
off in front of the lens, and the operator,
while conversing with him pulls trig
gcr. BY SO doing newly invented
cap turns on its own axis; and in its ro-
tary movement, allows the light and
the image of the sitter to pass through
a hole twice the diameter Of the lens.
The portrait is obtained in the fraction
of u second, and for quickncss can be
compared only with electricity.

brought il into existence, hav, remained

III they have succeeded in obtaining the
present beautiful location, and in erecting
thereon the present large and commodious

The institution at first was supported by
voluntary subscriptions from few Of our

three OF their own society who usually de-
voted day OF two 10 this business At
that time the Asylum rented house, and
the lally expense incurred for the Orphans
was not uncomfortable At timer cloud

unaccustomed TO the revelses and disap-

session Of the Legislature in '4s $4,000 was
granted TO them And but few days ago
The town council contributed towards their
improvements the sum of $500, this as we
learn puts them in n condition TO dispense
The blessings afforded by the Asylum at
very trIiling expense. Every care and at

Bu.ecss, the matron Of the establishment
1t afforded us melancholy pleasure
few days ago to sec this little family in
misfortune, wearing badges of mourning
upon their arms; on inquiry we learned il
was an humble token of love and respect
for the memory OF one of the earliest friends
of the institution, the news of whose death
had spread gloom over the little hearts
that mourn for her loss with all the fond
