BEAUTIFUL PICTURES FOR ALL.

The Great Art Publishing House of George Stinson A Co., of Portland, Maine, moves steadily on the even tenor of its way, apparently not feeling the dull times. During the year 1878 they 6old over Fonr Million pictures of all descriptions. They publish every description of fine pictures, and the prices range from ten cents upwards to twenty dollars per copy. Their correspondence for this large business is immense; they receive, on an average, over one thousand letters per day. Stinson & Co. publish only the better class of pictures, and it is well known that anything coming from this reliable house is raf standard merit. "We have just received copies of four very fine steel engravings, which they have just brought out The plates were engraved in London, at ac expense of fonr thousand pounds sterling, or twenty thousand dollars, to which great sum must be added the customs duty of twenty five per cent on account of tbeir being imported into the United States. These engravings are after paintings by great modern masters of art, and the artists who engraved the plates stand in the front rank of the world’s renowned engravers. It is generally conceded that these engravings make up the finest and most elegant set of works of high artr ever brought out by American publishers. This enterprising firm, though many years in the Art Publishing business, have not grown - old and u tip regressive, but on the other hand make improvement and progress year by year, giving the people hettor and better pictures for the same or less money They may, we feel sure, fairly claim to stand a! the head of the Art Publishing business in Ante ica. They employ agents t very where throughout the United States nud Dominion of Canada for the salt of their picture® by subscription; wc call attention to their 'advertisement for agents in another column. Those who desire pleasant, profitable work, should correspond with them.
