Some years ago we paid a visit to the home of
Washington. An involuntary feeling of awe
crept over us as we stood within those walls
| where once the immortal Father of his Country
| had dwelt. And as we went from room to room,
and saw the few remaining relics of what
| once constituted the household furniture we
were struck more than anything else with an
old harpslchord that had once belonged to
Washington's vile. There it stood, a relic of by
| gone times. The nimble and practised fingers
that had drawn out sweetest tones from that
| dilapidated old instrument had passed away
| ano had long ago melted to dust. Yet still IT
| stands ghost of the happiness and revelry that
| once dwelt within those old walls. 1t SPOKE
/ too, of the great progress that has been made
| in the atts-of the giant strides to wards per-
| lection that our inventors have been making.
| The weak metallic sound evoked from the old
harrps chord 's now replaced by those grand
volumes of sound that roll from the Steinway
! Grand Pianos. And then, too, from being O
rare instr ument-too rich and costly to be OWNED
| by any but the rich-they have become scattered
broadcast over the land. Almost every house
hold OF any lretensions whatever is possessed
| OF its piano.
OF the different makes of pianos, it will not be
| considered unjust to single out one particular
| make as fair and good sample of the very best
kind. The Messrs. Steinway d Sons, whose
| pianos, grand, square, and upright have
| taken thirty-two firstclass premiums, gold and
| silver medals, and are largely exported to
| Europe, where they contend successfully with
| the celebrated makes OF that continent. Their
| warehouse and agency in this city is at the
Blasius Brothers,, No. lOO6 Chestnut street
There can be seen all the different styles, at all
times. visitors are always cordially welcomed
to their rooms, and pleasant hour can al 9ays
be spent by ans one who has o taste for good
music. 1t may be necessary TO mention here
that the Steinway impro 0emenis in their pianos
are generally introduced by other manu-
tacturers. ...E
