unequalled Pianos:
y GILBERT's SQUARE GRAND PTANo.--A area,
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. GA
Washington street. Mr. G. terms it the Square
Grand l'idno, and the instrument is certainly a
spleAdd achievement in point of art, skill beau
~, and all that can render it complete. We are
not at liberty to explain the Aoto and trly of these
improvements, and it is a matter the public care
very little about, so long as the best possible Pi-
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. A power, purity. and resonance of
tone has been attained which makes it unmistak-
ably superior to any instrument ever before man
utactured here or elsewhere. To our judgment,
1t is the Piano in perfection In addition to this
remarkable power and transparency of tone, un-
der the new improvement the instrument will re-
main long time in tunc-an advantage that will
be appreciated by all who have practical ac-
qualntance with Pianos. Another noticeable and
beautiful feature Of the Piano is in its harp tones
which are not so much an imitation Of that insru-
ment, as the very instrument ITSELF One cannot
convince himself that it is not harp or that it is
Piano. This fact alone is a compliment to the
superiority of the instrument which requires no
comment. This, in connection with its richness
strength, and purity of tone generally ranks it
at the very head and front of nstruu ents in this
department of the world of music and harmony
AS an evidence Of the appreciation in which
1t is held by those connected with its partcu-
lar beauties, we may state that it received pre-
Nl,,na
stripped all comparison with others. We can
assure our readers and the putlic, that Mr.. Gil
bert offers, in this instrument, something superior
to what has ever before been attained, as Will be
evident to all who hear and investigate for them
selves; and whoever contempates purchasing an
instrument, should not fail first to see this
LEMuE1 GILBERT's New SQUARE GRAND PIANO

lar Piano Fortes of the different makers in this

We are not surprised that the public popular
Journals in this city and elsewhere are teeming
with enthusiastic testimonials in favor of Lemuel
Gilberts New Square Grand Piano Fortes IS su
peuor to all other square instruments in this
country which opinions we have heard corrobo-
rated BY many great Masters Piano Forte play
ers' Amateurs, &C.. who have tried them, and
listened to the soul-moving richness, fullne8s,
sweetness and purity of their tone
We are not surprised that they have received
the first premium in the several Fairs at which
they have been placed in competition this Fall,
when premiums have been awarded
In our opinion land we have carefully matured
our judgment,) Lemdel Gilberts Square Grand
l1ano Fortes are the best square instruments ex
