The HENRY +. MILLER PIANo-EoRTEs.--
The instruments from this establishment
are rapidly coming into public notice
and favor. and already occupy foremost
position among frst-class pianos.
Mr.. Miller is himself a practical mechan-
ic, and thorough musician. and the su-
periority which these pianos have over 9TH
ers, is owing in large measure to the
careful supervision which each instru-
ment receives from the manufacturer be-
fore 1t is allowed to leave his establish.
ment. The award Of the contract to fur
nish the public schools of Boston with
pianos must be very gratifying 10 Mr..
Miller, and is testimony Of the musical
public to the high position which these
instruments occupy. The severe test that
they have received at the New England
Conservatory OF Music. and at many 9th.
er public institutions where they are in
constant daily use, is = qua ,ntee oftheir
many excellent qualities, and especially OF
their durability. They are xsed and req
commended by u oct Of the leading must

IMPROVEMENTS OF WEST VlR-

In the'Rivcr and Harbor Appropria-
ton bill, as it passed both Houses OF
Congress recently, the amounts agpro-
priated foTSWest Virgin" were for the
upper Monon gahcla river, near Morgan
town. $4,000; for the Great Kanawha
river, 100000. The appropriation for
the improvement ofthe latter river, was
Senator HENRY G. DAVIS special care.
The bill. Ms it first came from the House,
provided for it only 100000; but through
the cNertions of Mr.. DAVIS it was raised
in the Senate to 100000. The House
refused to accede to this amendment,
among Others, and q conference commit
tee being appointed, the amount finally
agreed 10, was that stated above, 100000
The Senate, likewise, through the eN-
ertions Of our Senator voted $4,000 for
the Big Sandy, AID $4,000 for the Little
Kanawha rivers; but these were non
concurrcd in by the Conference Com
rnittee, and were therefore dropped.
