THE TIMES CRIMEAN CORRESPOND ENT.
_Messrs. Agnew' the Manchester publishers who undertook the great photographic enterprise in the Crimea, of which the results, under the cunning hand of Mr. Fenton, are now to be seen in Pall Mall, have brought out in the form of a lithograph one of the series which we singled out for mention in speaking of the exhibition. It is the portrait of Mr. W. H. Russell, the Special Correspondent of the Byes; a capital photograph, no doubt a thorough likeness, and now a clever print pro- duced under the care of Messrs. Hanhart. The visitor to the exhibition will recollect that the broad person of Mr. Russell, visage bearded and hands joined, is seated on a camp-stool. If the popularity of the subject is an adequate guarantee for the sale of a print, there can be little doubt that Messrs. Agnew have made a safe venture in the instance before us ; for Mr. Russell may boast himself one of the most popular lieges of the British Crown at the present moment.
