DIANOS AND MELODEONS.-I have now
Z choice lot Of tho above Instruments, some just
landed per steamer Monticello from the justly cell
ebratcd Manufactures of Horati0 Worcester and
Carbart, Necdham & Co., which, for beauty of
finish, sweetness and power of tone, easy touch
and durability Of wear, never have been and can
not be surpassed by any thing made on the conti-
uent of America. ....,- .... .-...- U
The abe SO declaration being established by the
testimony of hundreds of the best judges in the
land who have tested their merits by actual exper-
iment, will venture to state two very valid rea-
sons why you should buy of me, IN preference
even to buying or ordering from the factory, as l
have yet to hear of the first complaint of any de-
feet in any Piano sold by me during the six years
have been in tho business
In tho first place, then, will sell at precisely
the same prices charged at the factory, and thus
you save freight insurance, and torre-
ceiving and forwarding.
In the second place, you leave III one of your
Vrginia towns the small profit make upon the
sale, and to that amount, at least, you contribute
te the sustaining and fostering trade, industry and
enterprise ut home where it is sure to react Dene-
fcialy upon yourself and others
All of which I respectfully submit to your can
did consideration. JOHN Ii. PARROTT.
