The PIANO FoRN.-The different merits of
the grand and square instruments are dis
cussed in this wise by the Rural Ne,1 Yorker
eve spent some little time lately in en-
aiming the grand and square grand pianos
recently produced. The grand piano, power
full aud sweet as its tone is, and therefore, u
desirable instrument, is not pleasing in out
line, and takes up much room in the parlor.
A square piano, if it can be had without too
much sacrifice OF essentials, looks better and
is more convenient. The WATERS square
grandis, so far as eye and ear could determine,
Just the thing needed. The tone is remark.
ably even, the treble being brilliant without
metallic ring, the base (overstrung) sonorous,
and entirely free from the muflled tone so
frequently observable in new pianos. The
sustained, singing tone was exceedingly well
developed. The power, sweetness, purity
and evenness Of the tone were perfectly salts
