MASON AND HAM LIN'S /CABINET r\RGANS. Just Landed, Twenty-five of these Fine Instruments. THE SUPERIORITY Of the Maaonoud Hamlin Cabinet Organs.is derived, not only from peculiar skill in construction, especially in voicing, and tho EXTRAORDINARY EXCELLENCE Of MATERIAL and workmanship employed, and tho pos session of tho MOST EXTENSIVE and COMPLETE machinery and facilities for manufacture in Tns world, but also from the exclusive use OP IMPORTANT INVENTIONS. Tho most valuable improvements in. such instruments ; those which have been chiefly instrumental in bringing them to their present popularity and usefulness, have been effected by tiio-e NOW ASSOCIATED in this company. The art of voicing reeds, the most dilEcult and impor tant process in tho manufacture of such instru ments, was discovored by Mr Emmons Hamlin of tbis Company, and has been brought to HIGHEST PERFECTION IN THESE ORGANS. Having it as their earnest ambition to produce the', BEST INSTRUMENTS OF MIE CLASS IN THE woi?vLD, they have been eager to obtain tho use of evory valuable invention, wherever made ; and their extensive business and ample means have enabled them to succeed in this endeavour. WHAT MOST DISTINGUISHED SINGERS SAY. There can bo no more critical judges of quality of tone than the l, most eminent singers of the world. In New York and other principal cities tho Mason and Hamlin Organs are always selected for use in the Operas and Concerts. We give the judgment respecting them of many of the most eminent singers who have visited America. From M'lle. CHRISTINA NILBSON and other Members of the Strakosch Opera Company. We take pleasure in recommending the Mason and Hamlin Cabinet Organ as a very beautiful instrument, and consider it the best now in use. Christina Nilsson, Annie Louise Caky, MabiejLeon Duval, Victor Capoul, P. Bbignoli, &c, &c. From THEODORE WACHTEL, Tenor to the Farepa-Rosa Grand Opera Combination, AD. NEUKNDORFF, CARL ROSA and C. SANTLEY. We heartily recommend the Mason and Hamlin Ohgans aa the best instruments of the class made. They havo more 'power and greater smoothness aud fulness of tone, with equality and uniform character throughout their registers. _ Theodoh V> aciitel, Ad. Neuestdorff. Carl Rosa, C. Santley. From CH. GOUNOD, the distinguished Com poser of " Faust," who having uaed the Mason and Hamlin Cabinet Organs in his concerts, writes as follows to the Agent for these organs in I/jndon. Allow me, in thanking you gfqr this organ which you have placed at my|disposal for my series of concerts, to express my very favorable opinion on the charm of this instrument, the tones of which, both delicate and full, combine so well with the voice. I do not doubt that the Mason and Hamlin American Or^an will be of excellent and valuable use in all vocal or instru mental combinations of moderate limits. CH. GOUNOD. Tavistock House. From Dr. J. STAINER, Organist? of St. Paul's Cathedral, London. Dear Sir,—l have been very much pleased with your (Mason and Hamlin) American Organs on all occasions on which I have had to play upon them. Their tone is remarkably pure and free from reediness, and their touch all that could be desired. Yours truly, J. STAINER, Mus. Doc. From JULIUS EICHBERG. Director of Boston Conservatory of Music. In quality of tone—the chief excellence in such instruments—l think your Organs decidely excel all others; and that in the various other characteristics requisite in a good instrument, they are deserving Cof equally high praise. Indeed, I am led from experience to believe that the more ciitically they are tested and compared, and the more competent the judge, the mere certain and fjtugh will be the meed of superiority awarded them.^^ EICHBERa> FOR SALE AT THEIR SOLE AGENTS FOR AUCKLAND, tXOFFMANN & UONS, QUEEN-STREET.
