Mathematicians affirm that of all bodies con
tained under the same superficies, a sphere is the
most capacious, but surely they have never con
sidered the amazing capaciousness of a body whose
name is now required; and of which it may be

be four inches, length nine inches, and depth three
inches, yet in these dimensions it contains a solid
foot.

Their instruments have been repeatedly
DECLARED THE BEST
by the various State Fairs throughout the Union, and re
ceived Til E FIRST PRIZE MEDAL at the Paris Exhib

Sunday schools and day schools, the Mason A Hamlin
Cabinet Organ stands confessedly without a rival. For
all sacred music and the accompanhuent of voices, its
power of sustaining tones gives it great advantages over
the piano, while in those general points which constitute
excellence in instruments of its class, it has received the
almost universal preference of the best judges.
