The most perfect and beautiful musical instru-
ments in the world
Seventeen First Premiums all competitors
at State Fairs during the month of October.
With reputation established solely upon in
trinsic merit, and without the aid Of celebrated
names and paid testimonials, the AMERICAN Or
CANS have taken the highest rank as First-CasS
Instruments, and are justly acknowledged to have
no superior.
The attention OF the public is called TO the A
MEXICAN ORGAN as an instrument long sought
for in the family circle, which, with new patent
improvements, is adapted to all kinds of music
particularly the connected organ style with its
sustained tones and harmOnes, and Sacred music,
so much desired in American homes
The AMERICAN ORGANS excel an other lnstru-
ments ofthe kind in many important particulars.
| They are superior in their greater tUncsS and
depth of tone, capacity dispersion, elasticity OF
/ tone, and quickneSs OF action, rendering them
perfect in rapid movements.
| The AMERICAN ORGANS are cOnSt ucted on the
| principle ofthe large Pipe Organ anC in depth and
| sorority of tone approach nearer that grand In
! Strumcnt than any other organ yct manufactured,
and are the only real reed organs now before the
public. Most so-caled Organs" consist simply
ofthc action fastened upon the bellows A. in the
| common melodeon, and enclosed in an organ
| case but the AMERICAN ORGANS contain an
organ wiud-chest c IA e q the Rcverheratin1
| SoUnd-bOX, which has the same important part q
| perform rs the SOundng-bOaTd in a pianO-torte
to give body aud resonance Of tone. On account
OtthlS and other great Improvements the AMERI
CAN ORGANS rank tie first in the market, anC
command higher price then all other reed in
StTuments. Besides his Wnd-Chest, the Ameri
can Organs contain the largest bellows used il
any instrument of the kind, giving strength anC
stcadincSs of tone, truly desderatum in any
Organ.
The bellows being provided with a safety valve
il is impossible TO "choke" the tone by over blow
ing.
The improved knee-swelI, being placed at tn
right of the performer, is managed with per'ec
ease. BY its use, the guam III, o. tone may E
gradually increased or dimili dtrom the PidDa
jSsiD,o TO the FortissimO, and ZEE rersa.
The StorzandO expression may also be intro
duced at pleasure, SV cling particular notes Will
nne orchestral effects, which are absolutely i'm
practicable and unattainable in all "AutOmatic
or similar attachments.
The Tremolo peculiar to the AMERICAN Or
CANS is universally admired and appreciated, Civ
ing a pleasing and beautiful variety, eympathetl
IN quality, and is capable of the most touching
effects.
In connection with the Tremoko is the Pate,,
Forte Stop, which consists in so arranging tn
treble notes IN front, that, at will they may b
made more prominent; and, with a subdued &C
compartment, a fine SOLO effect may be produced
The Reeds are voiced with great care and skill
An American Organ containing more than on
set of reeds has variety N the y0icing Of cac
set, so that in using the full power the tone
blend into great volume, and they are so voice,
that they will remain in tune Tor years.
f The AMERICAN ORGANS are superior in the me
chanical finish of the action and interior muSica
parts. The valves are of material expressly pre-
pared to avoid all sticking or cracking are thu
durable, and will always be in order
The Keys, Reeds, &C., are perfect in their finish
and this gives the quickness and brillancy c
tone.
The AMERICAN ORGANS are finished in tn
highest style of art, in Rosewood Jet, Walnut
and Oak cases richly Vanished Polished, an
Engraved or in Smooth Oil Polish, forming ele
CANT pieces of furniture for the Parlor; and tn
Walnut and Oak cases especially adapted 70
Churches, Lecture, School and Lodge rooms.
We call special attention IL the style of Amer
can Orgrn, containing The super-octave couple
and subbass. For churches in want of power
full instrument, whose means are limited, il
, moderate price renders it very desirable.
4 1t contains seven stops, and is capable of grea
variety.
The AMERICAN ORGANS all contain the Doubl
Bellows, Tremolo, Reverberating Sound-box, an
, improved Knee-swell.
( These instrument have capacity from tn
single reed fve-oCtave organ, through all til
various combination ofreedS, up to eight sets an
sixteen stops. The power of the large pedal OF
gan is very great, the deep sub-bass tones havin
the strength and depth of the sixteen feet pipe
in the large pipe organs.
This latter instrument is finished in an uprigt
case, and is adapted for large churches, and fC
the use of conventions, oratOrio performance
&c. Every instrument is fu IL V warranted {
prove good and give satisfaction, and the publ
may always rely on being fairly and honorabl
9 treated. Organs are securely boxed (free
charge) to go any distance.
