TESTINONIALS:

Prof John B Rowlgnd, musical instructor
of the Washington W. f. Church choir, says:
The Parlor Organs manufactured by the
Gem Organ Company, of this place, are
among the sweetest IN lone of any have
ever heard. In style of case and handsome
finish they are without an equal.
From Tie Washington s ar:

iured by the Gem ORGAN Company, of WASH
in@ton. The cases are OF solid walnut aris-
ucaly finished AMI joined together in the
mos, thorough manner. The wood work
evidently shows the master hand of the >killc,
mechanic. The musical qualities Of the On
gan, so we are informed by an accomplished
musician, are not exceeded by the best insiru
ments of the kind use. 1t is furnished with
eight stops which give il full scope in the
most difficult pieces of music. The action
consists Of Two and one half sets of reeds, so
arranged that the slightest defect can be easily
reached and repaired. The organ is also
supplied with patent music rack, which
besides being ornamental, is of grea, conven.
fence To the performer. In conclusion, we
can say without prejudice, that the Gem Or
gan for beauty of style, handsome finish and
excellent musical qualities, has no superior.

Two Infamous Documents.

The Monroe Intclligencer of the
18th publishes the Infamous circular
of instruction from Taft to United
States marshals aud deputies. in which
he takes the occasion TO inform them
that they are the supreme authority
in any Southern State in which they
may he located and that all State
authorities are subordinate to them
and dare not diSobey them. Can any
thing be more preposterous and dew
ilish than this document. the meaning
Of which is simply that the marsbals
and their deputies mus, carry election
in the South by force, even if they
have to do so by overriding all legal
authority?
This precious document is followed
in that paper by one which states that
the President is in possession of state
ments to the effect that the South is
thoroughly organized for Intimidation
and riots--as positive lies as ever
we're uttered on earih-and that he
will not call in question the truthful
ness of any Of these lies, but will act
promptly aud vigorously-it had as
