LííS of the Press.
" The Horace Waters Pianos aro known
as among the very best. We are enabled to
speak of these instruments with some degree
of confidence, from personal-knowledge of
their excellent tone and durable quality."^—
N- Y- Écan^fiiil.
S iys th>- C'iiristian Intelligencer,t: Having
inspected a large number of the Horace
VVaiers' Pianos, we can speak of their merits
from personal knowledge, as being of the
very best qn-J.ty "
Nothing at the State Fair dssplayed great-
er excellence >n any department than the
piano lore manufactured by Horace Waters,
•if this'city.—Churchman.
The foliowina fs taken from the Christ-
ian Inquirer: -The finest among the many
pianos a: the Grystal Palace are those placed
there by Horace Waters: whose instruments
are always popular."
The following we take from the Christian
Advocate, Memphis, Term.: "The Ho 1 ace
Waters'pianos are built most of the thor-
oughly seasoned material. From all we can
learn of this establishment—said to be the
largest in the United States we have no
doubt that buyers can do as well, perhaps
better, at this than at any. other house in the
Union."
" The treble is clear, pure, powerful, and
very melodious, the ba*s isd -ep, rolling and
sonorous; th<- middle is rich, and sympathet-
ic, and possessing the power ot singing, i. t,
of uni<ing the sound ot each tone, in n de-
gree but rarely achieved.''—Henry C. Woe-
son.
" For poorer o"f tone, depth of bass. a?.d bril-*
liancy of treble, together with accuracy of
touch, they are equal to ny n.ake I am ac
quaint- d with, and I cordially reemtnehd
them to those wishing to purcha.-e."— V.
C. Ta^'ir. .
''Our friends will find at Mr. Wat- rs'stote
the very best assor men of music and ot
pianos to be found in he United States, and
we urge our southern and western friends
to give him a call whenever 'hey go to
New York."—Graham's Magazine.
" We consider them worthy ot special at-
tention, from the resonant and exceedingly
musical tone which Mr. Waters has suc-
ceeded in attaining."—N. Y. Musical World
and Times
" There is one which, for beauty of finish
and richness and brilliancy of tone equals,
if it does not excell, anything of the kind
we hnve ever *een. ft is from the estab-
lishment of Hora' e Waters- Being Con-
structed of the best and most "thoroughly
seasoned materials, and upou improved prin-
ciples, it is capable ot resisting the action
ot the climate, and oi standing a long time
in tune.—Savannah Republican, Savannah.

PHCEN1X BITTERS.
fju:e from all mineral poisons.
''PHK great popularity which Moffat's Lile
J. Pill.- and PhtEuix Bitters have attained
in consequence of the extraordinary cures
effected by their use, renders it unnecessary
lor the proprietor to enter into a particular
analysis of their medical virtues 01 proper-
ties. Having been more than twenty years
before the public, and having the united
testimony of more than T.iree Millions ot
persons who have beer. restor>-d to the en-
joy. i.ent of perfect health by them, it is be-
lieved that their reputation as the best vege-
etable medicine now before the public admits
no dispute. In almost every city aud vil-
lage in the United States, there are many
who ¡ire ready to testify to tli ir elfic.ency
in removing; disease, aad giving to the
whole system renewed vigor and health.
In cas.-8 of Scrofula, Ulcers, Scurvy or
Erup ions of the skin, the operation of the
Litis Medicines is truly ustonishing. often
r- moving in a few days, every vestige ot
these loathsum diseases, by their purifying
effects ou the blood Fever ani Ague, Dys-.
pepsia. Dropsy, Piles, and in short most all
diseases, soon yield to tlieir curative prnpT-
eties. No family should be without the m.
as by their timely use, much suffering and
expense may be saved.
