Mr John Forsyth, Who was with Mr. Ilerz, can testify to the above statement. Mr. Herz has always preferred Chickering's and.Sunns D Clark’s Pianos. When ho gave his Concerts in liostnn, lie used a Chickering's grand Piano, and left his own at the Hotel. And hr. ought to know.

Bruno A Virgins have called on me to testify in a matter of difference between you ; at least without consulting my recollection of the facts lam cited to prove. Had they consulted me, I should not now have to say, that the testi mony of my recollection does not support thoir “correction of a false statement." The facts aro simply, that at tho request of Mr. Hers, I went with him to both establish ments—yours and Messrs Bruno A Virgins’— and after trying several instruments in each, he selected a “Bacon A Raven,’ 1 from yours ; and not because it was a “seven octave’’ (for it was a six octave,) but, as I understood him, because he preforred it.

FliifkrringSA NniiiiAAtlark’A FZ/.ITC FORTIES, For Male Du BKU’NO A VIKUIAS. t| O THE PUBLIC.— It is with reluctance J that we feel ourselves called upon to ex pose some of the “hiimhuggery” w Inch has for some time past been attempted upon the public credulity, by a rival dealer, in the sale of Piano Forte* in tins city. He lias, however,provoked the exposure by hi* clap-trap devices to gam business at the expense of bis competitors, and is therefore eutiiled to that notice which we pro pose to bestow upon him. In the m.itter at issue concerning Mr. Herz’s choice of a Piano, we are not at all surprised that Air Forsyth does not ezeictiy recollect the cir cmn lances as tin y occurred in otir store, inas much as ii was ol little or no importance to him at all. He. w ill therefore ext use us for depend ing rather upon our ecr/uin recollections of an incident w Inch was important enough to make an impression upon our mind, ban upon Ins im perfect recollection of tho same, even had We no reason to suspect a bias of mind on his part ill favor tis the man who is his teacher in instru mental music. \\ liether the Piano used by Mr lletz while here was a six or sev eu octave, is not very material. It was one chosen by Inin eefter he had failed to gel one of Chickering's seven octave instruments from us, and which he was most anxious to get through our means, we hav ing sold the last of that kind a few days before to a gentleman of this city. For further proof that Mr 11. was not satisfied with the instru ment of which Mr. Reps makes such boast, Mr. iiivori (llerz'g partner) tlie next morning alter their concert, spoke of its performance in a very different light from that represented in the ad vertisement of Mr. Reps. We can also prove bv our elerk, then with us, that Air. Ilerz did not sit down and try our instruments, but played wi h one hand on a German Piano which stood in t lie front part of our store, ai tl which we af ter some time opened for the gentleman 1 From lie company with w hom lie t ame into the store, we knew that a preference would be given loan instrument from Mr. Reps' establishment, if one could there be obtained near equal to any we then had on hand, and therefore we advised Air. Ilerz to go to Air. Rips, which lie nccoroingly did. But it is idle for Mr. Forsyth or Air. Reps to say that Air. Ilerz did not first seek one of I 'bickering's seven octave Pianos, before putting tip with the six octave he afterwards used. If our competitor's willing witness “understood” Mr. Ilerz to ''prefer" the one used, before all others, why solicit from ns the use of one of Cbiekenng sseven-oetaves, at all—and why re quest us to get for him the use of the one vve had just sold ? The public enn answer these questions to their own satisfacrion. Having thus disposed of this small matter, we proceed o notice a few of the “tricks” of which our competitor has been guilty, since he com menced his present business in this city. 1 A gentleman lik-d a Foreign Piano which was in our store, and mentioned the fart to Air. Reps. The latter told him that vve had sold one exactly like that to Mr. Forsyth, who had used it only a year or two, and was then willing to sell it for half price t Now, Air. Reps never *avv the Piano which was in our store, and lie has shewn Ins ignorance fiv say ing that a Piano, with .he English (most durable) action, such as lint was, was exactly like the one of the Vienna (a very light and pleasant) action. He might as well have said that light aid darkness were ex actly alike 1 This was trii k No. I intended to njure us, although it is well known that we ..live always, for obvious reasons, refused to currant foreign Pianos which w ere sent lousbv • friend, without our order. Trick No. 2—consisted in advertising a“Cnu ion" to the public 10 look out, least they should •e cheated in the purchase of Gilbert’s Pianos, iiiless they were sure the name ofT. Gilbert A Cos. was 011 the instrument. We were selling the instruments of Lemuel Gilbert at the time, which was a different concern from that of his brother, T. Gilbert! The object of this trick was to create the impression that we were sell mg counterfeit instruments, and of inferior qual ity to those sold by Air. Reps, although the in struments of L. 4* T. Gilbert were both ranked in the third class by a committee of mechanics who were appointed to examine Panes, at the Third Exhibition of the Massachusetts Charita ble Mechanic Association, in 1641—see Report of the Association for that year, page 66, where it will also he seen that Chickering's Pianos were ranked in the first class, and won the gold medul. Such arc some of the devices which have been practiced to injure our business, but which have so far failed, as our trade ison the increase, and we can and do sell the best Pianos at less profit than any other establishment. Air. Reps him self has recently boasted that lie made more profit from the sale of one Piano than vve had from the sale of three, on the same day—and he probably made a correct statement this time, if he never did before ! In conclusion, vve do not deem it necessary to say one word in recommendation of Nunns Se Clark's and Chickering's Piano Fortes, which vve keep on hand for'sale. Neither do vve mean to say any thing against the instrument sold hy Air. Reps. All we want is a fair and an honorable competition. Let our neighbor do all that he can to extend his business, hy fair m< tins, and wo shall tint complain. We have no de sire to injure him, or vve might have done it by accepting an agency proffered to us to sell the Pianos kept hy him. Neither do we envy his success, for vve liavp sold three Pianos to his one, and more since lie commenced than before, be en sea greater trade is brought to a place where there i* competition than where one house is supposed to hold an exclusive monopoly of an ar ticle. But vve are determined no longer to sub mit, in patience, to the many sly movements which lie and his friends may set on foot to ng. grandizc himself, at the expense of truth,justice and candor. BRUNO & VIRGINS. P. S. We have a few words to sav to another individual who has so opportune y and quite accidentally, of course, conic to the aid of Mr. Reps. Dr O. P. Laird, having one “ Grand Piano” of Al r. Herz’s manufacture for sale, seems to think that our reconi mendut ion of Chickering's and Nunns & Clark’s Pianos, and our statement that Mr. Ilerz on ooeocca-ion used Chickering's ins,end ol his own, in Boston, were cnlrulalcd to injure the salo of his property, and Infs therefore kindly informed the public that Air. Ilerz only did so out of complimew to Air. Cliiekering! Very well : lie was probably sincere in the com pliment, and if so, it shows that Air. Ilerz was manly enough to acknowledge merit, even though found in a competitor. 8o far, then, vve were correct incur statement on this point. As to any attempt to prevent the sale of the Doctor’s Piano, we plead not guilty. The article i* not as saleable as others better known. Even the name of the “Pianist ofhis Majesty,” the exiled King of the French, around w hom* certain gen tlemen “icAo know" all about music, danced at tendance so gracefully when Air. Herz was in our city—as manufacturer of Pianos, has so far failed to elicit a single order through us in four teen years. Why, then,should Dr. L. suppose that the lady to whom he expected to sell his instrument, was influenred by us to send else where for a Piano ? Let him ask that lady, and lie will discover the fact that we knew nothing of her purchase or intention to purchase in New York, of Nunns & Clark, until vve had received notice that the instrument was shipped to our care, and we were expected Input it up for the owner, when it arrived. We are, however, unwilling to admit that Air. Herz, who is a com poser of music, residing in New York, can nnko any bette’ instruments at his manufactory in Paris, France, than can be furnished by us of American construction. The instrument ol Dr. L. is probably a good one. It may be “A No. I,” hut it will not sell any the sooner because the ovv ner puffs it beyond measure. It will speak fen itself.

The latter stand No 1 in that city. For several years Nunns A Clark have not sent Pianos to the ex hibilions, but always received the gold medals, when they did send, fee Report of above Asso ciation for the year aforesaid, page 126, for the ollowing . “There is one manufacturer, however, (N<>. 755,) whose instruments take precedence of all the o hers, with so unques ionable a pre-emi nence, that the Committee felt not the slightest hesitation in recommending the award, to him, of a Gold Medal. And this they diJ, on two grounds ; not only for the decided superiority of his r-quaie Pianos, which, it is no exaggeration to say, may be fearlessly placed in competition with the best that Europe can produce. Mr. CiuczEßlNo's Pianos, of both kinds, are of so delightful a lone, so delicate action,and so firm arid enduring construction, tint they need no medals to give them celebrity ; and it might seem superfluous to give encouragement to one who has already received the highest recotn inendaiions But the Committee were appoint ed, not simply to giv e encouragement to any per sons, but 10 decide, according to their ability, upon the relative rank of the instniments pre sented t > them ; and it would be nothing short of glaring injustice to lav aside the c-lain sos the instruments acknowledged tie be the lust, be cause the maker of them had always produced theMiest. So much the more does lie deserve the highest reward for his skill, enterprise and industry ; especially w lien lie is seen to go on, diligently and steadily, in lliecourse of improve ment, and his competitors find, when they a rive at one point—where he lias long stood be fore them—that he has reached another, and that without more than common speed, they cannot overtake one, who unites, with all their ambition, a perseverance which may he equalled but not surpassed. Air. Chicken ng's manufac ture is an honor to the community, in the opin ion of the Committee ; and they would omit no proper opportunity of In aiit.g testimony to an excellence, which makes them feel more proud of their city." ;eb 3 10—It Georgia CourtCalendar,for 1819* Superior Courts.

To deserve the patronage which Congress has accorded to their reports-of its debates, in receiving and making the Globe he official register, they intend to ado promptitude to wha ever merit has hitherto re conmieii.led the work. They will publish a Daily Globe, to record the proceedings and de bates as iliev occur ; and a Congressional Globe periodically', as heretofore, embodying the re ports ol Congress separate from the miscellaneous matter which will accompany them in the daily print. To fill the slice of the daily newspaper, it is designed to gather the news ft. lit all quar ters, and complete therontenla by drawing from every source hat may be of most interest among literary novelties, and of greatest Utility in scien tific and practical works on agriculture. Fur material, the leading journals and periodicals of France and Great Britain, treaiing of such sub jects. will be consulted, and, it is hoped, advan tageously used. Original essays, especially on topics connected with agriculture, will be obtain ed from the most enlightened and practical men of our country. The Globe, as a newspaper, and as a vehicle of information and alll use men l in other respec's, will he under the charge of Francis P. Blair and James C. Pickett. The Congressional department and business concerns of the paper will be under the management of John C Rives The public are familiar with Blair and Rives us connected with the press. In introducing Mr. Pickett as one of the concern, they will he al lowed to say a few words of him. lieis a gen tleman favorable known to the Government, for talent and judgment which distinguished his di plomatic service while connected vviih the mis sion to Quito ; and tnu'-e recently when Charge rl’Affaire- to Peru. Front his pen mainly the Globe will derive the selections and translations from the French journals and periodicals, tin comments on them, and the other literary articles which will he found among ils eh es attractions. The Globe will he published daily during tin session of Congress, and W eik Iv the balance" the year, and will undergo distribution in tin form of a Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe and an Appendix. j Tire Weekly Globe will be the vehicle of the \ miscellaneous articles of the daily print, with a synopsis of the Congressional proceedings. I Tho Congressional Globe will embody, as it has done for the last sixteen y ears, Congression al pioceedingsand debates exclusively. The Appendix will embrace the revised speeches separately, and the messages of the President of the United Stutes, and the reports of the Heads oftlie Executive Departments. The Congressional Globe and Appendix will be published as fast as the proceeding* of Con gress will make a number. Subscribers may ex pect one number of each a week during the first four weeks of a session, and two or tlnee num bers of each a week afterwards, until the end of the session. Nothing of a political party aspect will appear in the Globe save that which will be found in the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming to be an inipaitiai vehicle for all sides, cannot maintain its character if the editorial columns reflect a party line. The Editors of the Globe have borne their share in the party conflicts of the press They claim an honorable discharge from the vocation. The Globe will inviolably maintain the neutrality which its relation to Congress imposes.
