After spending large sums of money in experimenting, J. Estey & Co. have at last succeeded in manufacturing an organ which covers the whole ground. -’The action, by an ingenious and yet perfectly simple mechanism, has been rendered independent, and cannot be affected, like others, by changes in the weather. A now and surprisingly beautiful design of ease has been fashioned, and many other improvements been made, and we are informed by G. P. Guilford, Estey Managing Agent for the South, that in bis experience ot twenty-nine years, lie has never seen such a universal favorite as this organ seems to be. He has sent it out on trial to be tested with other organs, and that not one has ever been returned; neither has he failed to sell it to any customer wiio has ever seen it. Having done away with all local agencies, Estey has determined to sell through Mr. Guilford directly to customers; thus giving them the benefit of all discounts and commis sions. july.23.tf.
