Music-how il charms the ear, how it accOrds
with the feelings and harmOuizes with the
thoughts! that ls-when some tonching melody
is rippled from some fine toned instrument by
the delicate fingers of lady. But, surely, ii
there is any thing that produces the most disa-
gIeeable OF feelings, it is to see some practised
player attempt to dlaw forth sweet strain of
music, and be rewarded by discordaut and in
harmonious sounds. Persons who, therefore,
contemplate the purchasing OF piano, melo-
deon, or cabinet organ, should look well to the
merits and reputation OF such before buying and
committing themselves to enduring torture by
a harsh and inharmonous instrument. Many
pianos are presented to the public as those pos
sessng to a great degree, beauty and excellence
of tone But we feel assured that in this respect
Steck Co.'s pianos, sold only in this city
by j. &. Gould, Seventh and Chesnut streets,
have merit 10 the highest degree.
These beautiful instruments are as strongly
recommended for their excellence by the lead
ing American and foreign artists, as any made
in this other countries. Certificates as to
their durability, and references from over one
thousa and persons within AMI near this city,
can be seen.
The Mason & Hamlin Cabinet Organs, which
sutpass anything in their line, are for sale by
the same agent The inducements offered and
the real merits OF these instruments, should lead
to an examination and test Of their capabilities.
