unequalled Pianos:
L. GLBRRT's SQUARE GRAND PIANO. great
improvement yesterday had the pleasure of
listening to and examining great improvement
in the Piano. as perfected by that we'll known and
highly popular manufacturer, Lemuel Gilbert, 81 A
Washington street. Mr. G.. terms it the Square
Grand Piano, and the instrument is certainly
splendid achievement in point of art, skill, beau
ty, and all that can render it complete. We are
not at liberty to explain the how and chy of these
improvements, and it is a matter the public care
very little about so long as the best possible Pr
ano Is the result. 1t is the product of years of
toll and experiment, and cannot fail to achieve
that patronage and popularity which its merits
surely claim. power, purity, and resonance of
tone has been attained which makes it unmistak-
ably superior to any instrument ever before man
ufactured here or elsewhere. To our Judgment,
it is the Piano in perfection. In addition to this
remarkable power and transparency of tone, I'm
der the new improvement the instrument will re-
main long time in tunc--an advantage that will
be appreciated by all who have a practical nc
quaintance with Pianos. Another noticeable and
beautiful feature of the Piano is in its harp tones
which are not so much an imitation Of that nstru-
ment as the very instrument itself. One cannot
convince himself that it is not harp or that it is
Piano This fact alone is compliment to the
superiority Of the instrument which requires no
comment This, in connection with its richness,
strength, and purity of tone generally, ranks il
at the very head and front of instruments in this
department of the world of music and harmony
AS an evidence Of the appreciation in which
it is held by those connected with its partcu-
lar beauties, we may state that it received pre-
NUNS recently at three Fairs where it out
stripped all comparison with others. We car
assure our readers and the public, that Mr.. Gil
bert offers, in this instrument, something superior
to what las ever before been attained, as will bt

selves; and whoever contemplates purchasing al
instrument, should not fail first to see this
