wildered by the variety and the high CLAIMS
of each. Most Of them are good machines,
but the latest Improvement must, OF course,
be the best, and that is the one now before
you. 1t runs SO much lighter than other
machines OF equal capacity that, Tor the
family and light manufactures, 1t viii as
suredly have the preference.
Home Manufactured enther.
The Louisiana made leather shown by M.
Thomas Schorr, of No. 81 Cusstomhouse
street. is one Of the most gratifying proofs
that We are able TO furnish all that we need,
and OF equal quality with that brought here,
if we will only try. Mr.. Schorr is an i'm
porter of leather, but he is Il manufacturer
also, and he finds that he can make as good
leather in Louisiana as Can be imported.
All it wants is public spirit and capital TO
sustain the manufacture. Mr.. Schorr will
be happy to show leather-buyers specimens
of each, and to accommodate them with
which ever they prefer.
They Wear the Horns
No leather could be manufactured here>if
we did not take proper care OF the hides,
and the men who see to this and put up the
hides taken from the animals slaughtered
for our markets are Messrs. Hay j. Mehle,
who exhibit some Of these, sailed for ex-
port, and q lot OF tallow as clean and white
as leaf lard. Doubtless it is sweet, but
having DO taste for such things we did not
try it. Hay d MehIe have speciality in
this, and are, we believe. without rivals.
They. deserve their prosperity and the horns,
they sport over their goods attest their
position.
Grover ~ Baker
The beautiful embroidery which festoons
the place allotted to the Grover Il Baker
machines, leaves them without q rival
among the sewing machines. The Grover d
Baker stitch is the most ornamental of all,
and the family which wants 10 have hand
some sewing can not buy any other and ex-
pect anything as beautiful. This machine
has won SO many laurels that it is perfectly
enshrined in them and fears no competition.
1t performs all that other machines do, and
has lis own unapproachable stitch besides.
Dental Instruments
The exoussely polished and highly tenn
pered steel instruments for dental use, eX-
hibited by Charles E. Kells & Co.. attract
the utmost attention, not merely from their
beauty but from their intinite variety.
Whata difference from the time when the
pullikins" were the only known instruments
in use to extract teeth, and extracting was
all that any one could do for their teeth?
Indeed, as improvements are constantly
being made in dentistry, and as these gen.
tlemen keep up with them all, there is

fail to secure. Among these is. the new
Archer Chair,
the mos. convenient, easy and comfortable
chair for dental operations ever invented.
and as convenient TO the operator as 1t is
easy to the patient. Dentists will do well 10
examine this chair before they start into
another season.
The Silver Song.
Pescay's silverware had better praise
than ours yesterday. A beautiful little
bird, nestled in flowers, sat In the midst OF
it, and sang delightfully."- all day. But be
was silver bird himself, or at least bird
of mechanism, such as watchmakers con-
struct, though his plumage was red, blue
and golden, and he sang the song of triumph
over the urns and vases and salvers, and
other beautiful things around him, So en-
thata crowd wos kept there all
day. We did not hear whether he had 4
note for TippecanOe or no, but we are quite
sure that he mentioned Fescay with delight,
''and Tyler too"
FIeming's Gas Fixtures.
Just as one enters the octagOnsl building
from the side facing the grounds, he per.
celves, suspended all around, 4 lot OF the
richest and most beautiful chandeliers ever
before btheld in this city. One pair i'll par

so deliberately ornamented that they are
positively wonder of taste and art. One
does not know which the most to admire,
the exquisite taste or the magical skill Of
the maker. They are fac sini!es of the pair
which took the first premium at the Words
Fair in Paris. and really they could not have
done otherwise. for words can hsrdIy ex-
press all their beauties. But these are not

choice from so varied an assortment must
be diff indeed to please. These goods
ere exhibited by Mr.. John G. Fleming, the
well known gas-ftter of Poydras street,
and are simply samples of his stock, which
IS one of the largest ever brought TO NV
Orleans.
The Knabe Grand Piano.
As We predicted several days ago, these
splendid pianos, which were exhibited by
Mr.. Louis Grunewald, Of No. 1913 Canal
treet, has taken the premium. Indeed, we
IAN not see how otherwise could have been
he case, as the instruments of this manu-
acture exhibited elected the enthusiastic
admiration of all who visited the Octagonal
building, both on account OF the eXtraor
linary power as well as their singular sweet
less OF tone. The success Of these instru-
nents against such powerful and infu initial
opposition should be q source of gratica-

Of the foreign and Eastern pianos were eX-

We have seen, energy and determination

heir pianos! May all our manufacturers
meet with like success.
The Empire Sewing MachlEe.
This valuable machine has lis hundreds

who claim that it will DO a wider range of
work than any other they have seen. That

at the beautiful boot ana shoe |
work done upon it by Messrs. Blakely &
Hogan, of Canal street; and that it is equally
adapted to the finest lace sewing and en-

everybody knows that Messrs. Blakely &
Hogan employ il exclusively in their estab- |
ishment, and did anybody ever hear that

BADLY put up? We acknowledge that this |
argument was clincher, and upon hearing
