Among the many accomplishments Of
Photography We believe there arc pops
that eIoela the StsrOscopic pictures.
Ihey enable one to remain at home, and
ct the same time, rs it seems take a Ions
journey over the world. Our artist, Mr..
u. w. Keen, has fa,ored us with a pleas
my examination Of q series Of twelve of
these pictures taken at Greeneyille on
srd inst--the day ex. President johnson
was buried. Although he went from here
that morning and returned in the ave.
Ming the pictures taken by him are a de.
c'ded success. The different views taken
are the Court House and crowd from two
positions, Browns Corner known as John.
sons Block, johnson late Office and res.
ldence, the old Tailor Shop, &C., &c.
The one taken from Browns Hill, the
foreground crowded with men, women
and children, and then leaping across a
deep hollow including burial hill" with
the large crowd that surrounded the
grave during the Masonic ceremonies. is
certainly one of the bes. pictures we have
ever seen. He has other magnificent
views sweeping over the whole country
around Greeneville which are grand
About one half Of these series Mr.. Keen
has entered according to au act Of Con-
gress, which was a wise and prudent pre-
caution on bis part. He will find sale for
a large number Of them, as his prices are
reasonable.
