son tosand That every thing excellent even be-
yond measure is but feeble expression of admiration for
the artists and their performance Ole Bulls known, as
also is Strakoch They have before delighted the citi-
New Orleans with their beautiful displays Of art
tic talent but there is another who was not known here
except through the fame has achieved in other cities
but who will live in the memories Of those who had
the delight listening to her sweet voice Saturday
evening We hardly know what to say of her We can.
not find words to express the delicious sensations with
which she inspired and while she completely carried
away her audience with her enchanting notes they
utterly lost in disbursement at the power and briancy
exhibited by mere child. Her echo song almost made
imagine that Jenny Lind was before us She sang
other pieces with equal taste and skill but want Of space
prevents us from going into further particulars Cutva

Letter from Hon. Henry Clan.

ASHLAND, Goth July, 1S4S
Dear Sir: wish to express to you the qualification
derived on receiving the July number of the Mer-
chants Magazine and Commercial Review, from view
ing your portrait in the beginning, and from reading
your address to your friends at the end of it. When
we feel under obligations to those who have contrib
uted to our information and amusement, we are nat
urally DESTROYS to possess knowledge Of them Of
their appearance of the features of their counten-
ance, and Of the character and habits of their mind
which we can acquire. You have placed your mum
erous readers Cat least you have me, if 1 may not
speak for them) under those obligations and the
number of your valuable work now before me- in
some degree, satisfies the desire to which have alu
ded.
have become quite familiar with the Magazine
and Review and have no hesitation in expressing my
humble opinion that it is eninenty entitled to the
public regard and support. 1t collects and arranges
in good ORDER large amount of valuable statistical
and otherintormaon, highly useful not only to the
merchant, but to the statesman, to the cuyator of
the earth to the manufacturer, to the mariner in
short to all classes of the business and reading
munity.
Entertaining this opinion, am glad that it hap
been, and hope that it may continue to be, lberao
patroniZed. IN
Offering you cordial assurances of my esteem ali :,
regard am truly your friend and obedient serva

MASON'S PATENT PURIFIED
Nl Sperm OIL

This oil, for briancy durability, and purity as
light and for 1ubrcating purposes, whether applied
to the delicate works of watch or the most ponde-
rous machinery, surpasses any ell now known.
1t Is warranted not to gum, being entirely deprived
OF that substance which seriously impedes the
pld movement Of all kinds Of machinery; and for
burning 1t is cheaper and better than any oleaginous
substance in use.
While it affords light superior to gas or camphine
1t is also free from the dangerous explosive quality
OF the latter, being solely sperm Oil purified.
SO pure is this oil that it will freeze at any de-
gree of cold known within the limits of the United
states having thereby in this, in every other par
hcular, an advantage the best sperm oil as now
used
-, After devoting many years in experimenting with
the various oils for the purpose of overcoming their
Impurities as at present fabricated, the undersigned
assures the public that he has succeeded i'm producing
the ne plus ultra of oils He offers it as superior
70 any known oil in the world for the purposes of
burning and lubricatng, and invokes the scientific
OF all countries to test it and pronounce their opnion
satisfied that all will agree that it is the finest oil
ever offered for sale
