American Art Journal, Aug. 25.
It would appear that an unscrupulous
ig- ut of D. H. Baldwin & Cos., in Dalton,
(la., has been trying to brand the well
known Kranich A: Bach pianos as sten
r# i, and the Baldwin piano as a legiti
mate make. The tact is that I). 11. Bald
win y Co.’s pianos are nothing more or
Ic-s than stenciled instruments, the firm
not having a piano factory of their own.

Musical Courier, of Aug. 22nd, ’BB,
New York, says inquiries are pouring
1,1 ' a great rate, the first being from
a hon, Ga., as follows:

firm have never authorized any of their
agents or salesmen to make a statement
by which an eDquirercould be induced to
believe that there is such a thing as a Bald
win piano factory. The Baldwin piano ij
a stencil piano.
The next inquiry comes from the South
also:
Richmond, Va., August 18, ’BB.
Editors Musical Courier: Will you kindly
ascertain and inform a regular subscriber
tn your paper whether there is such a
pfano manufacturer as D. 11. Baldwin &
Cos., Cincinnati, Ohio. They claim to be,
and I would thank you for full informa
tion. Yours, etc., Gokdonsvillk.
The answer to the first inquiry answers
the above also.
Shipping Pig Iron North.
New Orleans Timee-Deuiocrat.
The first full cargo of Southern pig
iron shipped to the North left Savannah
a few days ago for the iron State of
Pennsylvania. The cargo, which con
sisted of 2072 tons, was shipped to
Philadelphia, where it will be used in the
many factories in arid around that city
in making rails, machinery and the
various other products into which iron
enters as the principal constituent.
Southern iron has been shipped for
some years past north of the Ohio river
in considerable quantities, and some of
it has gone to Pennsylvania; but this is
the first entire cargo of iron sent there,
and it is, therefore, an important trade
item.
The Northern factories are profiting
by the use of this cheap Southern pig
and converting it into all classes of
goods. Let us hope that the South will
aw:ike*To~the opportunity afforded it
here Our factories can get this pig iron
at much lower rates than those in Penn
sylvania can, and ought to monopolize
the very good business that the latter
are doing in the way of transforming the
raw material into other products. The
lime has come for the South to take
another industrial step forward. Origi
nally, it confined its manufactures to
the roughest materials; but now that
their success is assured, it should turn its
attention to improving and elevating
the character of its products; and one of
the first steps it must make, is in utiliz
ing the pig iron it now produces so abun
dantly and so cheaply. We are pleased,
of course, to learn of the shipment of
this cargo from Savannah, but we would
be even more pleased, if the,pig iron
thus sent to Philadelphia had been
worked over here into more valuable
products, instead of in the “Quaker
City.”
