Esfy & GREEN'S Perfect .neloieons are said by
good judges to excel all other similar manufactures
in the country. We know that they are constant
y engaged in making every improvement Of which
the article is susceptible, and that for delicacy Of
and exquisite tone their instruments CON-
mand the undisguisel admiration Of ama,curs.-
Many musicians and performers on the piano have
reluctantly sat down to a melolcon, deening the
too coarse and imperfect for a %cultiva-
ted taste; but such rs have taken the trouble TO ex-
anime those manufactured rs above have uniformly
had all their former objections removed. 1t
gives us pleasure TO learn that the cnterprising
proprietors have greatly increased their sales over
those q any former year. and that they are con-
stanily in receipt Of orders in advance. The bust
ness Is a credit to our village as we'll rs to iham-
selves and We eanuotbu, rejoice IN their success.
The same firm also manufacture Reed Organs
n a superior quality and Of all sizes. They have
numerous churches in this vicinity and
in different parts Of the State, and this success. has
elicitel the appreciation Of those interested, as we
judge by the favorable notices bestowed upon them
by the press generally.
Fisk's Pafeai .MeiafIie burial casea-These
adjuncts to the preservation Of the dead
have been too long befgrc the public, and have be-
come too widely known to need any eneoniums Of
ours. Onr object il merely to refer to the great
improvement NAT has been made in their shape, n
change which obyiates the few objections that have
been heretofore raised to their use. They are now
constructed in n form more nearly resembling an
coffin with beyelled corners and oval ex-
ircmities, than a lease Of which the old pat
was a copy. They arc finished in close imita-
Of rosewood, and while they are equally as
as collins Of that article, they are much
and also retain their peculiar merits in pre-
ier'iug tho enclosed remains for many years and
IA all climates. Mr.. Duincll who has them for
ale, and whose advertisement may be found else
where, IS deserving Of great credit and extensive
patronage for his Ii berslity and taste in meeting
he requirements Of the public.
Large Rasp5erries.-we arc greatly indebted to
Mrs. +. Kirklrnd for a dish Of the largest and MIC
st red and white raspberries that ever passed the
Of orr fontspiece. A portion Of them
we're each more than an inch in diameter at the
'ase, while their freshness and fragrance would
empt the appetite Of anehorite. A garden pro
lucing such fruit, is the best Recommendation Of
skill Of its presiding divinity, and the DISPOSE
ion made Of its products is sufficient evidence Of
he many amiable qualities Of the fair donor.
DOG Days are upon u.s. IS the exclamation Of
he perspiring multitude who are compelled, in
consequence Of the DETECTION Of cold ADAM
heir much to be remembered progcnitor, to earn
heir sustcnanee through such a process. Could
'ur common ancestor have forcscen the results of
'ia c~rclulity il does seem rs though be would have
zen more considerable. P-h-e-u-g-h how hot it
