Mr.. j. W Dcl5ear-Sir: We are de-
lighted and surprised at the ease with
which you have, in few hours, enabled
US to master the principles of PhOnOg-
rsphy.
The system is brief, simple and admit
rsbly adapted TO the wants of society.
It can, never be opposed except by those
who are ignorant of its principles. Your
peculiar method of teaching it, renders
its attsinm, Mt not task, but an attrac-
tive pleasure. The text book you nse
(Pitman's MsnusD is admirably arranged
for the pupil. By the invention of this
wonderful art, Pitmsn has placed bis
name high on the roll Of human bene-
factors, and we think it should be taught
to every child in the land.
To occupy the idle hours of camp life
it might be taught TO every company in
the army, without in the least interfering
with The duties of the soldier, prevent 3
worse use of those idle hours, and, we
believe its attainment would be valued
as highly as the pay received from the
