Reasons for Purchasing a SteinWay
PianOfOFte in Preference to
all Others.

First-The fact that they have been awarded
the first premium, both in Eur0P, and America
by the most competent and innexible ofiudges.
second.-The act that all thrir scales, i'm
provemen's and peeuliarities of constructiOnf
have been copied by large majority Of the manu-
facturers a both bemispheres closely could
be done without Infringement OF patent rights ;
thus admitting their superiority all others.
Thirdly The fact that Large number Of man
ufacturerz, and " Associations" profess 10 make
pianofortes exactly like Steinway's, or to hsve
been in n cir employ oremen or workmen, thus
c01cedinE their excellence in claiming an indorse
ment for their own instruments.
Fourthly.-The fact that while the minority of
the smaller makers manufactnre their pianos in
several separate shops and purchase the action 8,
some also the keyboaIds, and even the cases fOT
their Instruments, really made, every portion OF
q s. Steinway Piano. from its incip pency to its
completion, is manufactured in One immense
building, under the Immediate personal superin-
ncence Of Messrs- Steinway, father and three
sons, thus insuring perfect uniformity and N
rlvsle5 excellence .a-
FfrhIy The feet that no PiAnoforte with the
slightest possible defect Is ever permitted to leave
the manufAetory, and that every Stsinway in
strumeut is warranted for Five Years.
Sixthly.-The fact that in purchasing Piano
forte the established reputation Of it, maker
should be relied on strongly its apprent quail
ity, and far more than its first cost.
seyenthly-The immense ySEsiaS sn IeePjtal % S5 sm;
ihe employment of the most skillful artisans, the
selection and accumulation OF materials OF alt
kinds, and the thorough and heightened seasoning
process to which the lumber is subjects d.
Eighthly.-The fact that the unexampled sue
esss achieved by steinway Sons Pisnafortes, in
spit Of all and every opposition is admitted TO be
owing TO 20 their sterling and lasting qualities,
which stand alike the test Of time aad trial.
Ninthly The fact that the majority Of the most
eminent artists Of Europe, and with but few
eeptions the most celebrated pianists resident In
America, prefer them for their own private and
pubic whenever they obtain them, and
their testimony is overwhelming.

THE VETO MESSAGE.

Despite all rumors to the contrary, the
President has vetoed the Civil Rights
Bill; and despite all rumors to the con-
trary, set ahoat by the so-called Union
men who intend to follow the President
in his abandonment of the Union party,
he does not merely object to the constitu-
tionality of any of its minor provisions,
but denounces it in principle and in par
ticular, in general and in detail, from be-
ginning to end.
The message will be discussed in two
aspects-in reference to the intrinsic
force of its arguments, and to the light
which it throws on the Presidents
relations to the party which elected him.
We shall discuss the first more at length
hereafter. Suffice it at present to say,
that the positions it takes are worthy the
era of the Dred Scott decision, and the
party which moulded and sustained the
eternally infamous fancy. We blush to
think that in the days of the regenerated
and disenthralled Republic, man elected
by the party who made the Emancipation
Proclamation q reality, could prove so
false to himself, to his supporters, to the
freedmen, aye, to Freedom itself, as to ut
ter them.
The message will confirm the belief
which the Presidents first veto, his Birth
day speech, his endorsement of Copper
head English, and his war upon leading
Republicans, has forced upon the reluc-
tant minds of the loyalists of the country,
that he intends to carry out his policy,
even if in carrying it out the Union party
be destroyed 1t will awaken g thunder
Gus roar of Indignation throughout the
land, to which the condemnation excited
by his first message will be ss nothing.
The President has deserted the Union
party; but he himself and not that grand
and patriotic organization, is injured by
the desertion. He has leapt from the deck
of the noble Union ship, but, while he
sinks beneath the waves into political
oblivion, the good old ship goes grandly
on, and neither waves nor adverse winds
Will prevent her making the port in safety.

The Cork Eremiasr says It has excellent
reasons for knowing that the report current
for some days past thst Stephens had really
left Ireland, is correct, and that Stephens
prior to his departure enjoined on the mem
bers of the Brotherhood in Ireland the ad-
visibility of paying more attention for the
present to their pesceful pursuits than they
had been doing Cor some time. The En-
Gmiaer adds that Stephens wife was in
Cork, intending to sail for America.
THE extensive banking house of Culver,
Penn and Company, in New York, failed
yesterday, the cause Of tbs failure being the
fall of gold, the low price Of oil, and the
large amount Of money which the firm had
locked up in these commodities. The fail
ure will excite great surprise, inasmuch as
the firm has been regarded ss one of the
strongest in the country. Its senior part
ner is the Hon. C. V. Culver, who repre-
sents ths yepsngo district in Congress, and
is member Of the Committee on Banking
and Currency. Mr.. Culver hss been re-
garded as one Of the sblest fnanciers In the
country, and his wealth Is estimated at ten
millions of dollars, all of it self-msds. He
is President Of some nine or ten nstionsl
banks, in the oil regions, and st Erie, Phils=
delphia and New York. He was also ori-
ginetor of the Reno Oil and Land Compsny,
and planned the excursion Of business men
which visited the oil regions last fall.
