WAT E R S Has very great pleasure to announce that since his removal into Mr. Dyson's late shop, his tar DINING ROOMS "«* havo been renovated at great expense, with every regard to the convenience of his cus tomors. The LOWBR SALOON Is th<s most spacious and comfortable, as well as the best ventilated Dining Room in the Pro vince ; and Up-stairs he has furnished an extra room, of comfortable size, to prevent over crowding. There are SPECIAL ROOMS FOR LADIES also up-stairs, to which are attached side offices provided with ablutionary and other conven iences. His Table he feels confident needs no recommendation. The liberal patronage of the Professional and Commercial Gentlemen of the City which he has received for a period of over eight years is a guarantee that the Bill of Fare is such as will pleaße tho most fastidious. EVERY DELICACY OF THE SEASON is always to bo obtained. British Magazines, Illustrated and Comic Journals, together with the leading London Newspapers, are laid on the tables immediately on the arrival of each mail steamer. He, there fore, hopes with somo confidence that the will, in his New Premises, continue to receive the large share of patronage which has been ac corded to him in the past. E. W. wishes also to draw chtttuott onof Merchants and Storekeepers to his loacally mamifactured Confections, which rival those of Keiller and the best English makers.

THE SUPERIORITY Of the Mason and Hamlin Cabinet Organs is derived, not only from PECULIAR SKILL IN construction, especially in voicing, and the EXTRAORDINARY EXCELLENCE Of MATERIAL and workmanship employed, and the pos session of the most extensive and complete machinery and facilities for manufacture in th a world, but also from the exclusive use on' 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 those now associated in this company. The art of voicing reeds, the most difficult and impor tant process in the manufacture of such instru ments, was discovered by Mr Emmons Hamlin, of tins Company, and has been brought to HIGHEST PERFECTION IN THESE ORGANS. Havin„ it as their earnest ambition to produce the BEST INSTRUMENTS OF THE CLASS IN THE world, they have been eager to obtain the use of every 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 be no more critical judges of quality of tone than the most eminent singers of the world. In New York and other principal cities the Mason and Hamlin Organs are always selected for uso 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 NLLSSON 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 Gary, Marie Leon Duval, Victor Capoul, P. Brignoli, &c., &c. From THEODORE WACHTEL, Tenor to the Farepa-Rosa Grand Opera Combination, AL). NEUENDORFF, CARL ROSA and C, SAN TLB Y. We heartily recommend the Mason AND Hamlin Organs as the best instruments of the class made. They have more power and greater smoothness and fulness of tone, with equality and uniform character throughout their registers. Theodor Wachtel, ad. neuendorff. Carl Rosa, C. Santley. From CH. GOUNOD, the distinguished Com poser of "Faust," who having used the Mason and Hamlin Cabinet Organs in his concerts, writes as follows to the Asteut for these organs "in London. ■ . Allow mo, in thanking you for this organ which you have placed at my disposal for my series of concerts, to express my very favourable opinion on the charm of this instrument, the tones of which, both delicate and full, combine so well with the voice. Ido not doubt that the Mason and Hamlin American Organ will be of excellent and valuable use in all vocal or instrumental 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 wliich 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, Mas. Doc. From JULIUS EICHBERG, Direc tor of Bosto 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 of equally high praise. Indeed, I am led from experience to believe that the more critically they are tested and compared, and the more competent the judge, the mere certain and high will be the moed of superiority awarded them.
