A!* EXTENSIVE PI \V> M \ M FACTORY.
7 tie piau mauufactory of Messrs Knabe &Cos
o f Baltimore, Md, is one of tho most exten
sive In the world, It was established by
William Kuabs. iu the year 1837, and is a
standing uiouuraent so the enrgy and enterprise
of its founder. The Baltimore Sunday Tele
gram in Fpeakicg it says ;
Those of our cit'zens who will let their minds
revert back to the year 1837, will remember
the establishment of a piano forte manufactory
in our city, of which the late William Knabe
wa- the founder. Almost from the start, the
instruments manufactured by the firm achieved
a marked success for their superiority, both in
quality acd finish, over those which had been
previoti-ly r.ide, and such was the encourage
rneut received from tho musical public, that it
led at once to the enlargement ot the buisness,
which had been begun on an humble scale, to
one of more imposing importance.
From the time when it was ascertained that
tb» efforts of the late public spirited founder
met with such deserved success in endeavor
Ing to secure for our city the proud boast of
its being the birth-place of the bea' piano
manufactured in this country, until the present
period, the course of the house has been on
ward and upward, until now it has assumed
gigantic proportions, and ranks as one of the
mo-t extensive, if not the most extensive of its
kind, in this country, or in Europe,
We have been led to make these retrospec
tive remarks by a visit which we made a few
days ago to the factory of the firm,
on Eufaw and West streets, which now pre
sents the most enlarged proportions, the oid
buddiug having been found entirely insuffi
cient to meet the wants of the trade, and an
addition thereto being rendered adsolutely ne
cessary. The now building has just he m com
pleted, and, united with the main building
and the lumber yards, occupies two entire
squares oi ground. Tnis extensive manufac
toty is live stories high, and has an aggregate
front of 436 fe.t, wilh an average depth of 40
feet. It is well lighted on all sides by nume
rous windows, and the interior is so arranged
as to afford tho greatest possible facilities *o
the woikmcu in the presecution of their labors.
It. has beeu built in the most substantial man
ner, with a due regard, iu every respect, to tho
iHVtiirements of the buskers.
The various shops aie each appropriated to
sot. kj distinctive branch ol construction, and
it is instructive, in passing through the buil
ding, to note the busy scene of industry which
meets the eye on all sides, and to mark the
system which regulates the whole. Here may
lie seen all the different processes of manufac
ture, fioru the time the well seasoned wood is
tuken in the rough, and goes \hrough all the
gradations of blocking, case'making, sounding--
board, top-making, finishing, regulating, tu
ning. modulating, varnishing, until it receives
the finishing touch, and is ready for she deli
cate fiugoring of our fair countrywomen, or the
more pronounced manipultation of the pro
fessional All the modem mechanical aids to
labor are contained in this factory ; the beau
tiful and powerful engine turns a hundred
wheels or moves a score of saws; and a number
ol rare and costly machines, of extraordinary
power and unique invention, are in constant
operation to produce the beautiful specimens
of workmanship which the Knabe piano exhib
its the firm now employ about 250 workmen
and with their improved faculties tor manufac
turing,they turn out from thirty to forty instru
merits per week, including the finest ad most
elaborately finished grand and square pianos,
which is not, however, entirely sufficient to
meet the demand for these superior instru
ments. The whole establishment is heated by
Btuam. the apparatus for which is of tho most
approved pattern, and was put up by Messrs.
Thos. C. Basecbor & Cos.
It is a prido and a pleasure to us to record
this evidence of the great public spirit which
always actuated tbo late founder of the Aim,
and to express our gratification that his mantle
has taUeu upon such worthy shoulders as his
two sons Ernst and William, and his sou in-law,
Charles Keidel, each of whom seems to be ac>
tuated by that remakable spirit and euteprise
which never tails to bo rewarded with the most
abund nt success. Nor is it less a subject for
cougratu ation and pride when we reflect, that
the /aiue of their instruments is not confined
to one section alone, but extends all over the
country, ou the shores of tb<J A Hunt c as well
as the Pacific slope, to South America the
West India islands evon to Europe itself, This
last tact is the more remakable, when we
remember the comparativly few years that have
elapsed 3tuce it was considered imposssible to
have a piano unless it was imported.
But the Knabe piano .almost from its first
inception, began to assert its superiority over
the imported instrument, until now it would
be considered a very absurd tiring to import a
piano into this eouutiy, when we have at
our own doors and in our midst thoie which
are so iar beyond them in durability, beauty,
ol tone, and elagance of finish.
The pianos mauufactued by Knabe &Cos., are
made in the most thorough manner of well
seasoned timber, which gives them such powers
of endurance as may bo relied upon, They are
not turned out with rapidity with a view only
to their sale, but they are so constructed that
they wiil bear their own attestation of their
steiling qualities. There are three clsses into
which they are manufactured— the grand, the
the square, and the uprigb.
’lhe.e are but few makers of the first named
in the United States, uud the Kuabe is with
out a superior. The tone is large and sonorous,
brilliant and sympathetic, round and bell like;
and its power of t-ingiflg or sustaining the
suuuo is not exceeded iu any instrument now
made. The touch is firm, elastic and powerful
meeting eve-y requirement of the player. The
‘■square’’ is iquaily marked iu its general ex
edenco, its tone being of a refined and beauti
ful character, sympathetic and btilliant. clear
and equal in all its register, while in point of
tor ch it is all that could be desired, and in fin
ish and exterior appearance the workmanship
is perfect.
The! “upright" is sweet and silvery in tone,
and possesses more power than could be expec
ted trom au instrument of this class, and is in
every reppect an admirable instrument —the
small, compact firm and elegant case rendering
ii a desimblh ornament for the chamber or
boudoir. We might go on indefinitely to mul
tiply the many advantages of these instruments;
but we have said enough for our purpose,
which was the more especially to call the pub
lic attention to the new building and the ex
tensive business in which Messrs. Knabe & Cos.
are now engaged, and to which they have risen
by that’lndomitable energy which must always
secure success, and that liberality of spurt
which hr? evor actuated them in all their daily
transactions.
It is with a double pleasure, therefore, that
we refer to these improvements and advanta
ge _not only as Battimoreaus having at heart
tne welfare and prosperity of our city, but as
conferring honor a worthy and publ c
spirited firm, who have contributed so greatly
to the development of the mechanical and ar
tistic skill of oar people, and placed us among
the foremost in the land in the manufacture of
that “king of the instruments" which contri
butes so much to the enjoyment of all classes,
and without which no house is perfect.
Dolebbah’s Commercial College.—Educa
tion is the corner stone of national liberty,
and it is also the great means by which suc
cess is obtained in every walk of lile.
Amougst the educational establishments ot the
South, Dolbear'e Collego stands in the front
rank, and most deservedly. Established over
thirty years ago, it soon acquired an assured
position through the energy and judgment of
its fain ler, and ever since has been gaining
steadily the approbation of the public, so
that now, it is one of our “institutions," or
household word, as it were, amongst the clti
s U's of the Southern State?.
The college is situated in the magnificent
*• Story Building," at the corner of Camp and
Common streets, one of the most accessible and
convenient locations in the city, and will be
peculiarly so, in a tew months more, when
the city railroads, now under way, are comj
pleted. When we say that the College is con
stantly In session, that eight able professois
are continually in attendance, that the coarse
comprises book keeping, penmanship, mathe
matics, the Eagiisb. French and Spanish lan
guages, all those branches taught by acccm
p isbed masters, we thick we have briefly
stateil the very superior claims to notice and
patronage which tiro establishment possesses.
We may add that ample arrangements are
made to accommodate five hundred pupils.—

From Da. R. Shelton MoKbnzie,thb Littbra
ry Editor and Critic.
‘•Some years ago Evans’ Gift Book Store
was adopted as one of the institutions of this
city, and was conducted with a great deal of
fairness. After a prosperous reign of seven or
eight years Mr. Evans ’came to grief,’ as the
saying is. He bud been robbed'on all sides—
plundered to a vast extent. One of his em
ployees, his confidential clerk, built half a
street with money which, he eventually con
fessed, he had austracted from letters addressed
to Mr. Evans, and, rccoived by mail. Mr.
Evans could have stood this, but the war ob
liged him to close seven of his branch offices
in the South, by which he was a heavy loser.
‘•Mr. Evans has manfully struggled since his
business eclipse; latterly as agent for the Flor
ence Sewing Machines. He has just recom
menced his old gift book Dusiness, advertising
liberally (which was the secret of his former
success), and it is likely to make a fortune
again.”—Philadelphia Correspondence of N.
Y. Round Table*
We are pleased to learn that the Evans’ Gift
Book Store is again opened. Our citizens can
now again obtain their books from him at the
usual price, and, in addition, obtain a valuable
gift with every book, worth from 25 cents to
SIOO.
Send to him for a copy of the new classified
Catalogue of 1866, with full instructions for
forming clubs, and inducements to agents, &c.
One trial will assure you that the best place to
buy books is at the Evans’ Original Gift Book
Store, No. 628 Chestnut street, Philadelphia;
for it will be remembered that during the years
1859 and 1860, Mr. G. G. Evans purchased
and distributed among his patrons presents
costing him $343,795 15.
Persons desirous of acting as agents in form
ing clubs for this old established house, should
notify them at once, when they will receive
catalogues and all necessary instructions.

This valuable MANURE has be-' n before the agricultural
public, under one name, for twelve years past, and its charac
ter for vigor of action and permanence in effect is well e stah

Cotton, Tobacco aid all Crops.
KAnd as a perfect substitute for Peruvian Guano—afforded

turists of known intelligence and discrimination, it is war
ranted not to exhaust the soil, but on the contrary perma

sand tons annually, and the facilities for its manufacture are
extensive and complete.
