having set up in Il small way some six years ago
as agent for Boston firm and gone on by dint OF

or two since, of inspecting magnificent American |
piano. at the spacious rooms of III GRACE Waters
whose reputation is established all the country
one of the most successful and extensive dealers
and one of the best makers of the piano this side of
the Atlantic. The instrument in question was one of
his manufacture; seven octave, carved rose

SIX -larl-ine seraph i'll piano form A more exquisite
piece OF workmanship we do not remember to have
seen and the elegance of its exterior was the least of
its merit In tone, it was equal TO "a grand-action
and we doubt if Erard or any other European cele-
britv could produce a more superb nstru- /
ment Mr. Waters has experimental in sringing his
decided mprovement-untiI
he seems to have struck the fountain depths of sound
from tine most delicate to the most sonorous tones
This particular piano valued at 81 goo, but we
examined and listened to several at prices ranging
down TO quarter that sum- all equal i'll tone, as in all
the instruments of his own manufacture. Mr. Waters
uses the same superior movements" that, while
the rich can have theirmusic in Luxurious case, the
poorer have just as good music IN case suited
TO their means.
Mr. Waters commenced in this city, as an agent
for the sale of Glberts Bostonl pianos little over
six years ago, selling but one or two week-now
he is selling from % to 80 pianos ana melodeons
weekly of which half dozen Of the pianos per week
are manufactured by HIMSELF in this city, and two
ner week in Boston, by manufacturer who was for

If the manufacturers of Glbert, Chckering, Halelt
& Cumston, and Woodward s. Brown, of Boston,
and other OF the best makers in the country.
We examined specimens from all of these makers,
Dut neither saw heard thing quite equal to those
,f Mr. Waters manufacture, either in quality or
volume of tone or elegance of finish. Still as ''many
people have many tastes" Mr. w holds himself pre-
Dared to serve any and every customer with any de-
