DIAN0S AND MELODEONS.-I have now a
/ choice lot Of the above Instruments, some just
landed per steamer Monticello, from the justly Gel
ebraca Munnfactorcs Of Horatio Worcester and
Carhart Ncedham & Co., which, for beauty Of
finish, sweetness and power Of tone, easy touch
and durability Of wear, never have been and cam
not he surpassed by amy thing made on the CONT
ncnt of America
The above declaration being established by the
testimony Of hundreds of the best judges in the
land who have tested their merits by actual cXper-
imcnt, 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
have yet to hear Of the FIRST complaint Of any de-
feet in any Piano sold by during the six years
have been in the business.
In the first place, then, will sell ut precisely
the same prices charged at the factory, and thus
you save ireghi, insurance, and commissions forrc-
ceivng and forwarding.
Tn the second place, you leave in of your
Virginia towns the small profit I make upon the
sale, and to that amount ut least, you contribute
to the sustaining and fostering trade, industry and
enterprise at home, where it is sure to react bene-
ticialIy upon yourself and others. ......
All Of which l respectfully submit to your can
did consideration. JOHN II. PAKROTT.

1t was composed, for the most part, of the best
class of our citizens. Having attended for the
purpose Of forming our own ideas of its indica-
lions. we are prepared to say that very small
number seemed TO be drawn out by mere cnrioc
~, but that most of those present. took an active
interest in its objects and proceedings The reso-
lutons simply expressed the opinion that the time
had come when Maryland ought not to be without
voice upon the questions now agitating the whole
country, and affecting her, in particular so deeply,
but they did not attempt to shape the course which
her representatives ought 10 adopt. Upon these re-
solutions there was certainly no difference of onn
ion expressed, and, we think, none felt. Their
adoption was unanimous, both in form and fact In
the course of the remarks made by the speakers.
when they touched upon the issues before the coun-
try, and drew forth the sen tments of tee meeting
we gathered that there was an almost unanimous
feeling in favor of preserving the Union as it was
formed and intended to operate that the best course
to effect that purpose was to present an unbroken
'front.' and that it, therefore, became all the States
of the South but especially the border States, per-
| fectly to understand each other. Very decided
evidences of dissent from the line of policy pursued
by South Carolina were made manifest while upon
the question of coercing her by Federal troops
there were overwhelming and energetic demon
STATIONS in the negative. Mr.. YELLoTr made one
of the best speeches which we have ever heard from
him. to which. his past position gives much signif-
canoe. That Of Mr. NORRIS was remarkably able
