AN ILLUSTRATED CARD ALMANAK. – Messrs. De Gruchy and Leigh, engravers, carrying on business at 321, George-street have brought out an illustrated card almanac, printed in colours, which, as a specimen of tasteful lithography, deserves to be favorably noticed. Besides a calendar, it contains designs of much artistic elegance an archway with arms for Sydney and Melbourne, figures of the old and new year, and a well-coloured view of a joyous picnic, one of those that are to be held as a welcome 1866.
