SPECIAL NOTICES.
N O T &c e

The beautiful Piano Fortes of GRovEsrEEN
< Co., are deemed by all good judges to be the
Ultima Thule of instruments of the kind.
We cannot suggest what is wanting to make
a musical instrument more perfect, although
We are slow to admit that the limit of i'm
provement can ever be attained.
Before they had brought their Pianos to
their present excellence they had submitted
them to competition with instruments of the
best makers of this country and Europe, and
received the reward of merit, over all others,
at the celebrated Worlds Fair. 1t is but JUS
tice to say that the judgment thus pronounced
has not been overruled by the musical world
Still, by the Improvements lately applied
by them to their Pianos, it is admitted that
more perfect instrument has been made
They have accordingly achieved the paradox
of making excellence more excellent. Sure
ly, after this, they are entitled to the motto,
Excelsior" may29.

JUDGE KENNoN.-We have no doubt

JUDGE KENNoN.-We have no doubt
but that the Republicans Of this county
will exert themselves to defeat this gen.
,tleman in the ensuing election, by any
other than fair means; one of their hob
bys will be his health; as an Offset to their
charges in regard to his health preventing
him from performing his duties as Judge,
we refer all persons to the Court Jour-
nal during the last term. Several trials
by jury were had. and the Judge sat
throughout all of them undisturbed, un-
exhausted, and perfectly calm and col
lccted, as his discretion and cool ;udg-
ment in delivering charges to the jury
clearly evinced. The expressed opinions
of unprejudiced lawyers are, that he is
the ablest Judge that ever presided at
this Court.

Fairbanks Standard Scaies.-In all
business transactions requiring the use of
scales, it is of great Importance to both buyer
and seller that only such should be used as
are reliable, otherwise, yexatious discrepan
cies in weights and oftentimes serious losses
and litigations, are sure to follow.
1t is everywhere acknowledged, and that,
after most extensive use in all branches Of
business for more than thirty years, and the
most thorough and varied tests, that Pair
banks Scales arc unequalled by any others
in correctness, convenience and durability
They are adapted to every branch of business
in which weighing is required, and our stock
dealers and large farmers should have one of
these designed for weighing cattle and other
live stock.s
Every variety of these scales can now be
had of Fairbanks, Morse & Co., No. 125 Wal
nut street, Cincinnati, where the Company
has recently established Western ware
house. aprl0.
