1t affords me much lleaure to give you, in these
lew lines, very sincere testimonial for the Piano
Fortes of your manufacture. We lave now used
the Patent Arion Pianos in our Ccnsery atorics
for year, AMI have had fair opportunity of test
ing their durability during that time. The Pianos
have been played upon almost constantly, from
morning till night and Piano must indeed be
good one when it will bear such constant use with
out showing signs of detection. As for re,aaining
a. fttne, it ont rivals any Piano known to me-
Their peculiar sweetness of tone in the treble
tas compared to other Pianos with the ordinary
metal agralfe arrangement is striking that
have had pupils remark while taking thcirle lessons
that although they had at home what they sup,
posed to be one of the best makes of Pianos still
the treble was very wirey t. ned compared with the
tARION."
What makes them still moro desirable is their
uniform volume of tone which enables an Artist TO
perform a composition in its true character
In total, can conseientiousy endorse all that Ss
claimed by the Arion Piano Forte Company for
their superb iustruments, as consider them su
pcrior to any other make.
conSratniating You upon the great success you
ave obtained III the manufacturc of so perfect an
Instrument, Ireman yours.

The San Francisco Chronicle don't like
the manner in which President Grant treat
ed the Pacific delegation, who, it will be re-
membered, interviewed him at the White
House recently, and recommended Senator
Williams as the proper person to fill a po-
sition In his Cabinet, about to be made
vacant by the retiring Of Akerman, as
was currently reported. It says these
gentlemen were treated rather diseour-
teously, and asserts that Senator VII
hams is the peer of any member of his
Cabineut, as at present constituted, and
his friends and the Pacific Coast were
entitled to respectful hearing from him
While agreeing with the Chronicle tha,
Senator Williams is the equal of any
member of Grants Cabinet and deserves
the fullest consideration at his hands,
yet we are inclined to the opinion that
the delegation was over Jealous in the
matter, and upon the whole, were treated
about right-for their ofhciousness.

Election OF Territorial Officers.

Our reports give the result Of the cleo.
tion Of Territorial officers, 10 Joint Coz
vention, BY the Assembly, on Mosdsy ~.
The men selected an all Gar6slde Rcpub.
leans, Mr.. Brace Of Skamasia, having
voted With that party for the saucus nop-
inees, thus securing their election by az
rote. That gentleman has hitherto claimed
to be Democrat. How he reconciles this
action with established party usage, is not
for us to determine. Certain it is that his
Democratic colleagues decided 10 caucus to
oppose BY oil honorable means the election
Of the Garfclde caucus nominees, and
without Mr.. Braces vote it could not
have been accomplished. But aside from
the bad faith to his party, and it is by no
mesns the first instance 10 which that gen.
tleman has refused support Of purely party
measures at previous sessions of the Legis.
lature, he in this instance supported for
Treasurer q man against whom the Postal
Department has directed proceedings to
be instituted in the District Court for
deficit in his accounts as Postmaster.
amountingto over 81 800. This fact bears
peculiar significance considered 10 con.
uection with the report upon the Univcr.
sity swiudlc," a few years ago, which
white-washed statement caused no little
surprise on the part Of other members of
the committee, and such Of the public Is
we're cognixant Of the facts submitted for
their consideration. We do not assert that
Mr.. Brasee has been influenced by impro.
per motives 10 the present or the previous
transaction, but simply state facts, and
leave the gentleman to explain his action
as best he may. We do hold, however,
that he has not yielded his party that con-
sideration or support it had right to ex-
pect Of him. If he chooses to recognize a
Good Templar party, whose dictum must
be obeyed though his own party suffer de-.
feat thereby, he owes it to his former par.
ty associates TO advise them of the change
Of heart, or he must not complain if he is
accused Of sailing under false eolors.
Practically his action has been all that the
Republican party could hope for from the
most devoted of its advocates. .r.'
We trust Mr.. Brace will "rise to ex-
plain" and we cheerfully tender him the
use of our columns to set himself right
with the party and tho public at large, If
we have done him the slightest INJUSTICE in
these remarks. Our regard for the gen.
man, personally, has impelled us to present
the subject in the mildest possible form,
10 the sincere hope that be may make some
explanation that will, in degree at least,
palliate or excuse his recent action.
