PRANa's AMERICAN CHRoMos.- J..
Prang and Co., print publishers, Boston, have
become known throughout the entire country
for their achievements in the beautiful art of
chromo-lithography. In the skillful applica-
ton of this simple but delicate process they
have no rivals in the United States We
know of no art brought to light by modern
science and invention which is more produc-
tive of qualification than this. By its aid the
great masterpieces of genius, the most famous
works of the painters pencil, so costly that
they are held as the chief treasures Of the pal
aces and royal residences in which they are
hid away, are reproduced with marvellous ac-
curacy, and at prices which place them with
in the reach of all. Thousands who could new
er hope to look upon the famous originals, may
through these beautiful copies, study and be-
come familiar with the grandest works of the
old masters. We have lately seen a beautiful
ly executed copy of the Magdalena of Correg-
gio, the original of which is one of the gems of
the famous Dresden gallery, and it is astonish-
ing withwhat fidelity the artists incest effects
are reproduced. The figure of the Magdalen
with its fine outlines and the living color of the
smooth soft flesh, the 'paly gold" tint of the
falling hair, relieved by the dark blue robe are
wonderfully truthful, and all the accessories of
the picture will be found equally satisfactory
Messrs. Prang and Co., cannot give us too
mary of these vivid copies of the old masters.

MAINE MEN IN ALABAMA - The Republi-
can party is thoroughly organized in Alabama
Among the nominations for delegates to the
Constitutional Convention, as published in the
81 tie Sentinel, occur the names OF Hon. Is.
W. Norris formerly Land Agent OF Name /;
Major Charles A Miller, formerly Clerk of our
House of Representatives, and Clerk of the
Courts OF Knox county, when he enlisted in
the Union army; N. d. Stanwood, formerly of
Augusta and Captain Samuel S. Gardner,
graduate of Bangor Theological Seminary
Mr. Norris, who is Chairman of the Republi-
can State Committee, heads the list of dele
gates from Gilmore and Autauga counties
Messrs. Miller and Stanwood are on the
Lowndes county ticket; and Captain Gardner
heads the ticket Of Butler and Covington
counties. We expect to hear of the triumphant
election of these gentlemen, and we are sure
that if the new constitution is framed by such
men as these, it will be an instrument worthy
OF the era which is dawning upon the South.
Yesterdays Argus INDUCED in some very me-
lancholy reflections upon the negro suprem-
acy in the South" If the negroes desire to be

country will be threeby seriously endangered.
Tie Bangor Jeffersonian suggests that Major
Mlier's experience in Legislative matters, his
dne voice, his promptness and tact, and especi-
ally his thorough knowledge Of parliamentary
law, admirably qualify him to preside over the

That he, and the other gentlemen named, will
be useful and influential members of body
which has before it no less task than the re-
erection of q State.
