The officers of the Assay Office, in the U.
S. Mint, have just concluded some interest
ing experiments on the question whether the
amount Of wear on coin;is increased byex-
tending its surface. The generally received
opinion is that it is. But the fact is the re-
verse. The annual wear on the Spanish
quarters is considerably less than on our
quarters of smaller diameter; and the same
RESULTS found in comparing the thick and
thin gold dollars. ~.;..i. 81. ...a.;.......r.

pIANOS AND MEL0DEONS.-1 have now
{ choice lot Of the above Instruments, someJust
landed, per steamer Monticello, from the justly eel
cbratcd Manufactures of Horatio Worcester and
Carhart Ncctham-!S 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 conu-
ncnt of America
The above declaration being established by the
testimony of hundreds of the hest judges IN the
land who huye tested their merits by actual oXper-
inert, will venture to state two very yalid 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 the business. = @..- -.a. =
Ii the first place, then, L will sell at precisely
the same prices charged at the factory, and thus
you save freight, insurance, and commissions forre-
ceiving and forwarding .-
In the second place, you leave i'll one of your
Virginia towns the small profit make upon the
sale, and to that amount at least you contribute
to the sustaining and fostering trade, industry and
enterprise at home, where it is sure to react bene-
ficially upon yourself and others.
All Of which I respectfully submit to your can
did consideration. JOHN Il. PAkKoIt.
