Just Landed, Twenty-Five of these Fine Instruments. the superiority Of tho Mason and Hamlin Oabinot Organs is derived, not only from peculiar sicirx in construction, especially in voicing, and the EXTRAORDINARY EXCELLENCE Of MATERIAL and workmanship employed, and th« pos session of tho most extensive and oompletb machinery and facilities for manufacture IN the world, but also from the exclusive USB OF IMPORTANT INVENTIONS. The mOBt valuable improvements in such instruments ; those which have been chiefly instrumental in bringing them to their present popularity and usefulness, have been ef-feoted by those now associated in this company. The art of voicing reeds, the most difficult ani impor tant process in the manufacture of such instru ments, was discovered by Mr Emmona Hamlin, of this Company, and has been brought to HIGHEST PERFECTION IN THESE ORGANS. Having it as their earnest ambition to produce the BEST INSTRUMENTS OF THE CLASS IN THE world, they have been eager to obtain the ueo off every valuable invention, wherever made; and their extensive business and ample means have enabled them to succeed in this endeavour. WHAT MOST DISTINGUISHED SINGERS SA.Y. There can be no more critical judges of quality of tone than the most eminent singers of the world- In Now York and other principal cities the 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 NILSSON and other Members of the Strakosch Opera Company. We take pleasure in recommending the Mason and Hamlin Cabinet Okgan as a very beautiful instrument, and consider it the beat now in U3e. Christina Nilß9on, Annie Louise Cary, Marie Leon Duval, Victor Oapoul, P. Brignoli, &c., &c. From THEODORE WACHTEL, Tenor, to the Farepa-Rosa Grand Ope»a Combination, AD. NEUENDORFF, CARL ROSA and C. BANTLEY. We heartily recommend the Mason and Hamlin Obgans 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 Agent for these organs in London. Allow me, in thanking you for 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 o St. Paul' Cathedral, London. Dear Sir,—-I 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. t^tttit , _ r • Yours truly, J. STAINER, Mus. Doc. From JULIUS EICHBERG. Director of Bost o 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 ciitically they are tested and compared, and the more competent the judge, the mere certain and high will be the moed of superiority awarded them. JULIUS EICHBERG.
