The Americana Piano Forte Trade

As an item of interest to the thousands o.
piano buyers in the Northwest, we publish
the following article from the New Yorl
Tribune of February 23d:
Twenty years ago the number of pi
amos made IN America. was exceedingly
small. The workmanship of these. with few
exceptions, wes inferior to that of Europe
Musical taste and musical demand grew rap.
idly, however, and American inventors began
to revolutionize the Old World theory of pi-
ano structure. The value Of the improve
ments thus effected in the making of pianos
has been admitted by the world generally
By testimony of the most eminent musical
professors, our own pianos are decidedly su-
perisr to those of Europe
The annexed statement is founded on the
sworn returns under the internal Revenue
laws of fifteen widely known manufacturers
of New York, Boston and Baltimore. Ex-
elusive of Baltimore, for which we have no
return of pianos, il will be seen that during
the year 1866 there were no less than 1886
pianos made and sold by these fifteen firms
of three cities. The sales produced S3,l64,-
C92 3S, out of which sum was paid manu-
facturers' tax of Sl72,5l3 80. 1t is a still
more remarkable fact that the leading manu-
faeturer of New York and that of Boston
jointly realized by their sales 81 $50 ,440 80,
while the other thirteen makers combined
sold to the extent of 81 ,53I 643. The two
firms belonging to New York and Boston
paid, in fact, more than one-half of the Gov
ernment tax collected. The following is the
exhibit:

Mr.. Jas. Radcliffe, of Metcalf Co.,
KY, not loag since, laid down for q
short nap, and awoke after having
slumbered ten days. When Mr. Rad

He weighs between 400 and $50 lbs

Since 1921 Mexico has had twenty
three presidents, seven dictators,
tive empexprs, one vice president,
and one geherslissimo, or an average
of one ruler every sixteen months
Maximilian has had the longest rule
of any of them.
We learn from the Lafayette Cour
ier that there is now living in Rock

a woman named Mrs. Elizabeth Edg

enjoyment ofgood health and all her
faculties.
1t seems that the roll Of Robert

Rev. Mr.. Phillips, professor at

The Orange Furnace Co. near
Jackson, o.. has failed. Liabilities,
$4,000; assets, 100000. Cause of
failure-outside speculations of Jas.

the Jackson Standard.
Gen. Sehofield is about to displaee
such Justices of the Peace in his
district as he deems incompetent.
Parties who have recently convers-
ed with Alex. H. Stevens, says he
advises that the wisest course for the
South is to remain quiet and await
the issue of events; that nothing the
Southern people can do will influence
the policy of the dominant party at
Washington.
Advises from Northern Alabama
state that the inhabitants living at a
distance from the railroad are dying
Of starvation, and unless relief reach

in the Sand Mountain section will be
depopulated.
@- The President has been urged
by prominent Republicans, and 9TH
ers, to release JEFF. Davis upon his
own recognizance, because there is
no prospect of Chief Justice Chase
holding a court in Virginia so long
as that State is under military cen
trol-the Chief Justice deeming it
beneath the dignity of Judge of the
Supreme Court to sit in district
under such control.

Thad. Stevens upon Confiscation.

Mr.. Stevens delivered, last week
in Congress, his long expected
speech in support of his bill for the
cenfiscation of rebel property. OF
course the bill and his argument in
support of it are radical in the ex-
treme. We expect nothing else from
Mr.. Stevens, and in this expectation
Mr.. Stevens never disappoin.s u.s.
The bill forfeits all the public land
belonging to the ten Confederate
States, and calls for the condemna-
ton of such of the property of reb-
els, as is deemed forfeited by the Act
of the 18th of July, 1862. Out OF
the lands thus confseated, the slaves,
who have been liberated by the ope-
rations of the war, are allotted home
steads; out of the balance of the
property a sum shall be raised fer
the erection of homestead buildings,
and the further sum of five hundred
millions of the amount shall be ap-
prspriated for an income for pension
ers by the war, and to pay damages
done to loyal citizens by the Confed-
crates. The property of no one
shall be seized whose whole estate
on the 4th day of March, 1865, was
net worth more than $4,000, unless
he shall have voluntarily become an
officer or employee Of the Confeae-
rate Government, and in enforcing
confseations, the value of $1,000
shall be left to the delinquent. At
the conclusion Of Mr.. Stevens
speech, the bill at his request was
postponed till next December. That
the bill will ever become law of the
land, is in the highest degree i'm
probable. The Union party has nev-
er been in favsr of system of
wholesale confscation of rebel prop
erty, no more than it has been in IA
yer of wholesale hanging of all
participators in the rebellion. 1t is
true that in strict construction of
law the whole Southereu people, al
most without exception, forfeited
both life and property by their trea-
sonable attempt te destroy the Gov
ernment. But by general acquies
cence both On the part Of the peo-
pie and the Government, the legal
penalties of treason have been re-
mitted to the Southern people. And
while the loyal North viii unfinch-

Major Chambers Baird For State
Treasurer,

That the fall campaign is approach,
ing, it is well that the people should
look about for these with whom
they mean to intrust the public Off
ces. Having had considerable trouble
with former State Treasurers, the
people should make careful selec.
ton fer the next incumbent of that
important Office. We knew of no
filter person for that Office than Ma
jor. Chambers Baird, of Ripley,
Brown county, Ohio. He is a mem
Der of the Brown county bar, and is
one of the most thorough and pro-
ficient accountants in the State. He
has served in the business his whole
life. He has held Numerous positions
in the gift of the people, and has
filled each one faithfully and satisfac-
torily. Herepresented his State Sen.
atorlal district for long time, to the
great satisfaction of all his constitu-
ents. During the war, and fer more
than q year after its close, he was a
paymaster in the q. S. Army. In
that capacity, he travelled over the
greater part of the United States
with his safe and his greenbacks, he
followed eur soldiers over the most
perilcus routes and into the most
bloody battles. He was one of the
most efficient paymasters in the
army, and gave the NEST perfect sat
isfaction to the army and the pay
department at Washington. After the
close of the war, he was with the
army On the plains, among the In
dians for about year. Everywhere
he shared the perils and dangers of
the commonest soldier. His accounts
we're always correct and satisfactory,
and he never lost any money, though
he handled millions. He came out
no richer than he went in, and the
was never loser by him.
He possesses all the qualifications
which would fit him eminently for the
office. The people can find no more
efficient, capable, or trustworthy per-
son for the office. Your correspond
ent knew him both as q civilian and |
IN the army, and speaks from person
Al knowledge. Those who know
lim personally and well, would be
Wiling to trust him with the finances
If any country. If the people want
! State Treasurer whom they can
rust implicitly, Major Baird is their
nan. He has been tried and found
'erfect. W. !

essary for the permanent peace and
security of the country, they will
generously leave her people in the
full enjoyment of their lives and
property. The conditions Of recon-
struction imposed upon the South,
are not imposed as punishment for
their treason, but because they are
essential to the present and future
highest good of the country. A
wholesale confscation of the proper
ty of the Southern people is not es-
sential to the security and best in
terests of the country, and therefore
is not, and will not be demanded bv
the loyal North. Mr.. Stevens viii
never see the censummation of his
pet scheme of confscation.

ton Bill finally passed both Houses

original law establishing military
governments for the Southern States.

R A dispatch from Richmend
says that General Lee is in favor OF
the people voting for convention,
and that every man not actually dis
franchised, should not only take the
necessary steps to pre- pare himself,
but to prepare all his friends, white
and colered, to vote right. He
thinks the cooperation of all the
people, officials and citizens, should
be prompt, and that the chief object
should be to get as quickly and qui-
city as possible, back into the Union,
with such rights as are left. He
thinks the oath is such as every citi-
zen not disfranchised ought now to
be able to take, as simple matter
of truth and duty as a citizen of the
country. asa.
