L. GILBERT's SQUARE GRAND PTANo.--A great
improrem@t--We yesterday had the pleasdre of
listening to and examining great improvement
in the Piano. as perfected by that we'll known and
highly popular manufacturer, Lemuel Gilbert 5l4
Washington street Mr.. G.. terms it the Square
Grand Piano. and the instrument is certainly a
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 vAy Of these
improvements, and it is 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
umctured here or elsewhere. To our judgment,
it 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 tune-an advantage that will
be appreciated by all who have practical ac-
ouaintance 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 mol harp, or that 1t IS
a Piano This fact alone is q compliment to the
superiority of the instrument which requires no
comment This, in connection with its richness,
strength, and purity of tone generally ranks II
at the very head and front of insrum ents 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 partlcu-
lar beauties, we may state that it received pre-
miums recently at three Fairs, where 1t out
stripped all comparison with others We can
assure our readers and the puNlic, that Mr.. Gil-
bert offers, in this instrument, something superior
to what has ever before been attained, as Whl DC
evident to all who hear and investigate for them
selves; and whoever contempates purchasing an
instrument, should not fail first to sec this
LEMUEI GILBERTs New SQUARE GRAND PIANO
FoRTEs-We have taught music for twenty years
past are acquainted with the merits of the popu'
lar Piano Fortes Of the different makers in this
country, and delight to see merit rewarded where
it is due.
We are not surprised that the public popular
Journals in this city and elsewhere are teemlne
with enthusiastic testimonials in favor of Lemue
Gilberts New Square Grand Piano Fortes as su
perior to all other square instruments in thii
country, which opinions we have heard corrobo
rated by many great Masters, Piano Forte play
ers, Amateurs, &c.. who have tried them, an'
listened to the soul-movlng richness, tullness
sweetness, and purity of their tone.
We are not surprised that they have received
the irst premium in the several Fairs at which
they have been placed in competition this Fall
when premiums have been awarded
In our opinion (and we have carefully mature'
our iudgment,) Lemuel Gilber's Square Crane
Piano Fortes are the best Squire instruments ex
tant, and we shall unhesitatingly recommen'
them as such. A PROFESSOR OF Muslo'
Hundreds Of other testimonials can be seen a
the store of the Agent, and any instrument de
sired can be furnished at twenty days nonce
These Pianos are at cost--2O per cent. cneane
than any other mandatory in the United states
Those in want Of Pianos will do we'll to exam
inc these before ordering elsewhere.
