J Hitherto there has been an un« satisfied demand for a Parlor Organ which should combine power, sweet ness and variety o*‘ tone with a per fect action, enclosed in a rich and 4 ornamental case, which could "be sold at a very moderate price. After spending large earns of money in experimenting, J. E-tey & Co. have at last succeeded in manufacturing an organ which covers the whole ground. Tbe action, hy an ingenious and yet perfectly ample* mechanism, has been rendered independent, and cannot be affected, like others, by changes in the weather. A new and surprisingly beautiful design of case has been fashioned, and many other improvements been made, and we are informed by G. P. Guilford, Estcy’s Managing Agent for the South, that in his experience ot twenty-nine years, be 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 iiisryot'curke n ° l om * * las ever * ,een returned; i Court Home . neither has he failed to sell it to any ’ " customer who has ever seen it. Having done away with all local agencies, Estey Las determined to sell through Mr. Guilford directly to customers; thus giving them the benefit of all discounts and commis sions. jnly.23.tf.

Lino cannot be surpassed in the South for comfortable accommodations to pas sengers and for ease and pleasure in riding. The road bed is kept in fine condition and being laid with rteel nils, the trains pass over it at rapid speed with the least possible noise and jolting. Cqpt. Foreacre, the efficient general manager, is certainly the right man in the right place, and his corps of subordinates are every one just suited to their special work. ( t ;t The Ncrtli-eastern road, while it is new and therefore not quite so well equipped as the other, is one -of.tbe best branch roads we ever saw. Under «h wmotive* aupti intepdenny of Mr. J. Jd. Edwards, it is rapidly assuming all the importance of mnch longer lines. We understand that it does an immense business, especially in carrying freight, every train being loaded to its utmost capacity, and at times extra trains are necessary to furnish all the transportation re quired. . . . .
