WE clip the following from, the New


York Musical Gazette of February:
"The principal objection to reed in
struments of all kinds-orgons, harmo-
NUNS, melodeons-has been their
quality OF tone, which was reedy,
nasal, thin, sharp and disagreeabIe.
1t is difficult for many to believe that
it has been found possible to SO i'm
prove them as to render their quality
of tone equal to that produced from
pipes. Yet this is what has been ac-
complished in the Mason Il Hamlin
Cabinet Organs, and it is on this merit
more than any other single one that
their claim to superiority is based. We
invite all who are skeptical on this
point to take the first opportunity to
hear one of the larger Cabinet Organs,
feeling very sure they will be con-
WINGED as so many thousands who
doubted have already BEEN" .---

THE Island property holders seem to
appreciate the opportunity now OTTER
ing for the increase OF the population
OF tho city, and arc determined to Sc
cure "a fair proportion of the influx for
the 9TH Ward. They are building such
houses over. there as are much needed,
that is, small but attractive buildings,
such as can be rented at figures that will
not swamp u thousand u year salary
leaving the renter little or nothing 10
support IL family on. Those we noticed
are Il ffntne by John Richler, another
bv Joseph Forsyth, and one by Mr..
Kellar. ~--rr
f. j. Stone is putting up a large
double frame mousse. Robert Campbell
has three nice cottages, all of which
will be ready for occupation by the first
of April. Robert Bond also has under
way II double house built of concrete
which will be finished by the first OF
April. iia II i.i'pf ~
Our friends of the Methodist Church
are also building a parsonage This
house is of brick.
Charles Nichols is preparing to build
early in the season, and quite II number
of others will build during the summer.
All these improvements indicate a con-
dition of things which looks well for
the prosperity OF the city. IL would be
well If some of the capitalists would
turn their attention to the wants of the
city on this side of the river in the way
of dwelling houses, for they are much
needed. We do not see why dwelling
houses cannot be made good invest

that may appear in proper light, l
ask you to be kind enought TO insert the
following statement Of facts:
AR. Dodge's sketch reached here on
Friday. II was written on both SIDES
of the paper, and not as clear and lesi-
BILE as Mr.. Barnitz desired 1t. AT ME i

PpT6Tnises. one way or the other. After
The report was read on Sabbath
evening, it was handed to me
| hy Mr.. .Barnitz, who remarked Hths
ISTELLIaESCER wants a copy of this"
/ replied, They can have copy of it,
I iCiu gre them a proof-sheet." The
foreman of the Register was instructed
to give you Il proof sheet, t1heFI you sent
for Il. For some cause you did not
send for the proof-sheet, and therefore,
did not get IT, You are aware that here
tofore proof-sheets have been frequently
exchanged by you and myself, and the
one receiving the same has Invariably
sent for u. AT the close OF the Ami
versary exercises, Mr.. Barnitz said he
! wanted the sketch to appear in your
Il paper, and I distinctly stated that you
il could have proof oft. Had he been
as anxious to have you print the sketch
es as he would have you believe, why
did he not send you word that had it,
and would give you proof-sheet?
These facts present for the purpose Of
placing myself right before the
public. The members OF the
Young Mems Christian Association un.
derstand the subject fully, and neet
not be informed as to the above facts
nor in relation to suudry reasons as ye

We are manufacturing new styles of organs
for churches with beautiful upright cases, having
gilded imitation pipes, making them fine orna-
mental instruments for the choir, galleries or
chapel. All musicians, upon hearing them, ex-
press their surprise at the amount of pure and
full tone which these organs produce. They
contain the deep, Manual Sub Bass and Super

sustain even a hundred or more voices, and yet
they are rich, soft and expressive effects.
