ls 90 smple and easy that It's principles can al be
learned Ia few hours, and small amount Of prac-
tce viii enable one to use It for the daily purposes o.
life.
None but those who are acquainted with It can
form any lea Of its great brevty and simplicity or
OF the ease with which it be learned. But what
Is Photography It system of short hand writing
which be written ten times fast az the common
writing, read as easily, and learned with far Less
trouble
II IS used not only by Reporters but BY hundreds Of
thousands IN this country and in England for private
writing, for composition, for taxing testimony, etc.;
10 courts for sermons for correspondence for book
keesg, ste, etc by Ladies', by Students, by Clerks
by Cergymen, by Lawyers, etc, and s rapidly COM
ing into general USE
As labor savilg invention, its vaue can scarcely
be estimated and IL requires but little time to learn
70 It for the daily purposes OF life. But the OBJ
lection Is made that others cannot read it'll Well then
let them spend few hours 10 learn it. for where is
the justice in requiring the active and intelligent TO
spend ten days in doing what they might do in one
msrey to save the indolent few hours effort Ia
learning thing which would be useful to them for
LIEF The time when but few persons could
write their names but the progress of the age de-
aands more rapid method of writing, and while
the active and intelligent HUsT and WILL have the
advantages Of Photography, the indoient must sub
init 70 the disadvantage caused by their own indo-
lsnoe.
The case with which It can be brought into profit.
ablo and daily use is shown by the following certiB.
Gates. It is only those who ignorant Of It who
ever speak against it.

SIR: The few lessone took from you some time
since in photography, have enabled me to more
than twOthirds Of the labor in preparing my sermon
and have no doubt Il viii soon enable me to save
three -fourihs Of It. have never spent time more
probably than in It's attainment and feel perfectly
free n recommending IL to Clergymen generally, as
means by which vast amount Of time may be saved
and that with far less effort than s generally sup
posed. Its principles sre few and simple, Of easy
attainment and suited to the full expression Of every
word in the language, either for present or per.
manont record. Yours respectfully

II about six months from the time 1 began the
study Of Photography, with less than one-third Of
aid tima devoted TO itg attainment was empIOved
as Reporter for the United States Board Of Claims
Tho faithful teaching Of Mr. J. W. Dobear, Of NASH
vile, and the study and practice Of the concise, COM
prehe1slve, and judiclonsy arranged photographic
books Of Ben Pitman, OF Cincinnati, have thus easily
enabled me 70 make Photography practically useful
It's principles quickly mastered, and know Of
nothing that young persons can learn with equal pros
pect Of Immediate and profitable employment
The Secretary Of War has ordered, July 9Th, 1863
IN "General Order No. 20Ss Photographic reporters
employed under the authority Of the 2eth section OF
the act Of Congress, approved March 8, 1883, viii lie
allowed not exceeding ten dollars per day" eto This

Left the Hospital correspond in Il with those who
have not. ". &. Dervin, Of Company +, 1eth ". S.
A., who returned home disabled for life from his
wounds writes that he s teaching Photography, and
finds il so profitable that he would not take 5000

and Office would find the learning Of Il profitable
employment for their leisure time Ia camp OF hospi
