In <i word, what guarantee have you in buying a stencil piano? American Art Journal, Aug. 25. It would appear that an unscrupulous ig- ut of D. H.

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.” A Lady’s Testimony.
