SOMETHING NEW In YORK!
TILTON'S PATENT
IMPROVEMENT ON THE VIOLIN

TYNTIL within few years, there has been no
I change in the VIOLIN. The oldest instru-
ments now in use were made about the year 1850,
at Cremona in Italy. Musicians have long be-
leved, that to possess perfection Of tone, VI0-
LIN must have age; but this belief has Of late
been agreeably changed, even in regard to the
Cremona; by using the new patent improvement.
The chief object of TILTON'S PATENT, is to
obtain tone at once clear and full, mellow and
round, sweet and powerful These VIOLINS are
for sale at the JEWELRY STORE occupied by
E. NJ. KIRKPATRICK.

Books AND WHAT WE Owe THEM.--Con-
slider what you have in the smallest chosen
library. A company of the wisest and wit
test men that could be picked out of all
civilized countries, in thousand years have
set in bestorder the results of their learning
and wisdom. The men themselves were hid
and inaccessible, solitary, and impatient
Of interruption, fenced by etiquette; but the
thought which they did not uncover to their
bosom friend is here written out in transpa-
rent words to us, the stranger Of another
age.
We owe to books those general benefits
which come from high intellectual action
| Thus [ think, we often owe to them the per-
ception Of immortality. They impart SYM
pathetic activity to the moral power. Go
with mean people, and you think life is mean.
