GENTLEMEN: Having used your celebrated pianos III
public and private during the present opera season we
desire to express our unqualified ad uiration OF their
sonorty evcnnrs richness and astonishing duration OF
tone, beautifully blending with and supporting the
voice. The matchless qualities for accompanying the
voice. together with precision OF action and unequaed
capaciy OF remaining 10 tune for great length OF time

Others the most desirable instruments for students oI

reached Liverpool the last week in August, lar
exceeded those of many previous weeks. The
totals were ,544 cattle 2,02l sheep, 4Oi pigs,
81 calves, So horses aud l,264 quarters OF fresh
beef. But in spite of the fact If these large
iuportations from the United States, there has
been no pcrceptible interference with the cattle
trade carried on ia England by Spain. Last
year there were shipped 20, so fat oxen IRON

used for the conveyance of these beasts, cut
small sailing vessels which are contlGuaily en-
poyed in this service; and it is Sc ldom that any
animals are lost on the voyage. ln the district
Of Ga!icia and Asturias it ls reported that ioO'
900 head of cattle are employed 10 agriculture
and for breeding purposes. Eggs IN large
quantities are also shipped IN the same vessels
with cattle from Corunna.
