CHICKERlNG AND SONS PIANOS.

TifE ESTABLISHMENT or TIE FIRM.--This
celebrated M,nutuctOry of Pianos was founded
in Boston, in 1888, by the late Jonas Chick
cring, whose mechanical skill practical in
gcnuity and untiring industry soon pllccd him
us the foremost PilnD maker in thi, country
and his instruments Tar beyond those Of his
competitors. Ills name Is ihscpsraubly con-
nCctcd with the history Of the progress ofthc
Piano ON account o the many valuable i'm
provcmenis he introduced, the perfection OF
lis manufacture and the vast quantity Of his
production
luE Present FIRM consists of the Sons of
Jonas Chckering who assumed the manage
ment of business or Ills deccasc in 1850. Tncy
are all practical piano makers, each one having
served al the work bench and learned every
part of the manufacture Of Pianos Their
skill, enterprise and ambition has enabled
them not only to sustain the uniiytclpd rcpu-
tntion they inherited but to greatly increase it.
No efforts have been cfun,iied hy Chickcring
d Sons to further perfect their Instruments
experiments and changes have been made
without number until they have nov attained
their present surprising excellence.
TmF LATE lMrEOvEME rs mnae by CHECKER
ing IL Sons, wi,hn the last TWO years, have
been of the most marked character. by which
grca; volume and uliiy OF tone isobtaned,
combined with sweet singing quality lvalling
the human voice, BY recent improvements
in the action the touch is rendered more
elastic and prompt, so that rapid dllicult MI
sic can be performed with the greatest facility
without fatigue
TmE FAcIilrIEs FOR MANUFACTURING pos.
scssed by Chickering & Sons, are mcq'u,llcd.
Their Factory is larger than any Piano Factory
in America by nearly one third, and more
than double MS large as any in Europe. 1t is
provided with every kind Of labor saving
machinery (much Of which is peculiar TO the
Factory, being the invention of The Mcssrs--
CnickeIing thcmselycs) by which the work is
done better and with more uniformity than by
hand. The greatey,cnt of the drying rooms
enable them to always have on hand y large
supply of properly seasoned wood, which is
absolutely necessary for the production of a
durable instrument BY thcs" mcaus n reqnhr
erceieace is saitaincd in the Chickeiing Pianos.
TuE MERITS OF New PMSos are 50 great
and apparent that they have gained the ap-
proval Of the best artists OF the country and
caused them to be sought after more than cycl
by the public.

CrnCKERING PlANos,-"To praise the
Chickering Pianos we confess is very
much like gliding refined gold or pam
ting the lily;' yet stupidity regarding the
choice of an instrument is so common,
that some may forgive in nsa word OF
eulogy Notwithstanding Our readers
remember the old woman in North
Carolina who kept piece of gold bcar~
ing rock in the &ichen for years, to hold
the door open, and at last only reluc>
family sold for u quarter. to a Yankee,
who got sixty good yellow gold dollars
out of it. People who have Chickering
pianos within their reach, and yet buy
others, remind us of this old woman. -
Ask us not what these pianos haze that
is so superior, but rather what they have
not. There is not u single quality which
one desires III a good parlor instrument
which is not found in the Chickering
piano. The qualities are not isolated,
as you find them elsewhere--for instance,
one piano with tremendous bass, an
other with brilliant treble, like girl
with abeautiful nose and horrld mouth,
or with fine eyes but bad teeth--but they
all combine in the lowing embrace OF
perfection, like the charms OF that nympl
whose eyes do not quarrel with he'
teeth nor her nose with her mouth, but
nll of, whose features agree in the emit
lative desire to enchart. Who could re-
sist such powerful battery OF witcher'
les! The Chickering manufactory ha:
not been of mushroom growth. The
principles upon which pianos are there
made have been in process of experiment
for upward Of forty t'co gears, and SC
extensive are their resources that they
are capable of allowing the wood o
which the sounding-boards are made tc
season IN the steam room tor t'cenW year
before using it. As the sound-board l.
the tone cradle OF piano, the public
can thus form some little idea Of ,od,
these pianos so completely distance al

OF the sale, Ii stocks are sold below par, the
amount realized is the test Of the tax.
So, too, if the articles sold should be stocks OF
gold selling at premium, whatever the Success on
gold brings in currency determines the Fate OF ihe
stamp. Our daily cotemporaries, IN attempting
| 10 illustrate the case have all been led into
| olunder originally perpeTated by lhe new tork
Times, which would make i appear ma. Llas % SUES .
stamn npr thousand dollars would be los per cent.
| The Times in illustration said: " In the case of
| stocks selling below par, the stamp act is made
4 eGual to only the currency proceeds of the sale.
| fl The case of stocks and gold selling above par,
| the stamp tax is raised to the currency value of
I the sale,
For example, in the first instance, we take 100
shares of Erie. The old tax was SIS on the par
value. The new tax is only &C cents on the cur
rency value, say of $4,000. If the value be $685.,
or 66{ per cent the fraction goes to the govern
ment, and stamps to the value of 81 cents must be
attached to the memorandum of sale. In the sec
ond instance we have government per cents of
1862. The old tax upon the sale of brokers and
bankers. not made for their own account, was S.
on the par value of every $4,000. The new tax
upon all sales, is in the nature of stamp upon
every memorandum of sale, whether such sale be
made on commission or for account of the broker
or banker is at the rate of 81 08 on every O00
the sale being at los per cent.
Now, the fact is, the Times intended to say :
Omitted Staes s per cents, 1862, being to-day
quoted at los. the stamp required on $4,000 at
par, which will cost Sl0,S00, currency, will be,
at per cent, 81 o." The rates change with the
fuctuation Of stock prices, and the measure of
the stamps per cent on the money paid at
greenback value There is another fact in refer
ence to sales of stock. gold, etc., which ought to
be generally understood. The stamp duty at l
per cent. is to be imposed when the sales are
made by regular brokers, who pay special tax, or
have license. If the sale is made by person
who does not pay the brokers' special tax, except
when the property is his own, the stamps required
are per cent. on the value of the sales. 1t is,
therefore, the interest of every one who wants to
buy or sell stocks, coin ETC., to transact his bust
ness with a regular broker
