THIRTY-FIvE THOUSAND NOW muse


| \ presenting the AUTOMATIC ORGAN, we
i boldly announce the greatest triumph m musi-
cal instruments OF the age. During the past half
century, the French and Germans have manufac-
tured reed Instrume ats with double bellows, and
two pedals Tor the feet To operate, but the of
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, VIII ch Is the
only bellows used IN instruments, } made II m-
possible Tor them to produce the mellow, rich and
musical tone tor which instruments are cee-
brated.
Another objection to this method of blowing
was, that both feet being occupied, no opPorIunI-
~ was offered for the management OF the swell
Within the past two ears, instruments construct
ed on this European plan CT 90 double blow ers -
have been manufactured IN tins country, and to
counteract this difficulty (want of swell) lever
has been projected from the centre of the instru
ment, to act upon the swell, and operated by the
knee. The Inconvenience and contortion neces
saTy to effect this object, are disagreeabe enough
TO gentleman, but 10 a lady the OF such an
apPendage Is nearly impossible.
Our AutmatIc device obylates this difficulty en-
urely, the simple act OF blowing with more less
force giving the desired increase decrease IA
the volume OF tone. For seventeen wears the
superior excellence of our Meiodcons has not
been questioned, and tor two years past the enor-
nous demand has made IL impossible tor to
meet our orders promptly. With increased
facilities, We feel warranted IN assuring pat
rons that their orders will be promptly met, and
solicit continuance OF their patronage.

CHILLED AND WROUGHT IRON SAFES
Wrought Iron Fire-Pr0ofs,
LOCKS AND VAULT DOORS

These Fire proofs are manufactured to supply
demand for Security Against Fire, less expensive
than my Celebrated and Superior Chilled and
Wrought Iron Burglar and Fme-Proof Safes.
They furnish similar and equal security TO the
Sales generally manufactured the different CIT
'es, but are Superior to them IN their FIre-PTooI
qualities and durability, the Iron beng efectualI,
protected from rust IN any climate, and the Fire
Proof not subject TO lose ls utIiIty by age. Thu,
10 an important advantage gained to the purchaser
as safes often rust out and become worthless 20
two or three years.
To substantIate my position, those purchasing
these FIre-ProOfs are at liberty, by giving due
notice of time and place Of trial, lest them .,
FIRE with any other Safe Of the same SIZE ano
should they not prove superior, Will refund the
money, a new Fire-Proof, as the purchaser
may decide.

GREAT IMPROVEMENTS In
Sewing Machines.
EMPIRE
Shuttle Machine.

PATENTED FEBRUARY 18th, 1860
saiesroOm. $40 Broadway, New York
The machine IS constructed on an entire new
principle OF mechanism, possessing my rare and
valuable Improvements, having been examined BY
the most profound experts, and pronounced to be
simplicity and Perfection combined.
The following the principal objections
urged against sewing machines
!. Excessive labor TO the operator
2. Liability TO get cut of order
5 Expense, trouble, and loss of time in re pairing
4 lncaPacIty to sew every description Of material.
DIsagreeable noise while IN operation.
The Empire Sewing Machine is Exempt
from all these Objections.

makes the lock or shuttle stitch, which will neither
rip nor rayel, and Is alike on both sides; per-
forms perfect sewing on every description of
material, from Leather to the finest Nansook
Muslin, with cotton, linen, silk thread from
the cOarsest to the finest number.
Having neither Cam nor Cog wheel, and the
least possible frictisn, It smooth as glass
and
