A NK IT PIANO. Att Important Invention and Improve incut la Upright I'luno-Kortea. The upright piano, doubtless the handsomest, m it rromuwi to bo tbe favorite of lu class, has Terr recently tindorgone it marked an improvement in the noienoe ol its manufacture aa to be in manr respects new instrument, it id well understood, from the testimony oi leading instrumentalists in tue Old W orid, that the squat e and grand pianos made In tola oountry are even superior in all the require ment ot art to tbe moat celebrated manufaotuie of the Old World; but in the ooca'ruction ot the up. right pianos the American maker baa heretofore . labored under the same diflicoltles aa bare besof tbe Kuropoan. Many costly experiment! bare been tried, and much ingenious study given to the task of perfecting an instrument which, if all its capacities were in harmony with its convenience, oomnactnoii, and beauty of form, ought to be more desirable than any other to a large number of households And an extonsive class of perlorinors. The uptight plauo made hith rto wanted power, full tone, and an even register. Tbe action was nut only complicated, cramped, and dufective, but the instrument was con stantly liable to get out of ordor, while, from those and a variety ol causes, tuore was no certainty of keeping it in tune. In the now upright pianos just sot up by the Messrs. SUinway ft Hons, these delects are, without exoeptlon, admirably ovoroome. Hundreds of players have already tested the aocuracy and bril liancy of the instrument; and Its perfection, now arrived at after much expense and many Tears of experiment, brings to the view ol the musioal world an event ot infinite importance to thoir art. Tho in vention by which this 11 uo result has been aohioved belongs solely to tho emiuent firm we have named. Beyond tbe praise dno ttiem lor a remarkable sue ess of enterprise, they deserve publlo gratulntiou lor a discoreiy which, great or small, is likely to benefit the general community ol musicians as much as any Improvements ol late yean eilboted in the mukiiig oi pianos. The new uprights are known as "Tbel'atent ltesonator" aud "Double Iron Frame," and were patented June 6 of this year. From a description ot the genera! features of the instru ment, tnusioians will be able to understand its points ol superiority. Tbe instrument is provided, in addition to the usual Iron Iramo sustaining tns strings in the front ol the sound-board, with an iron braoe lrarao in the rear ot it, instead of constructing the latter portion ol the instrument, aa bcretolore, of noavy pieoes ot timber, lloih the front and rear iron frames are cast together in one solid piece, by this moans im ps ting a solidity of construction and stability of tune not paralleled in all respocts in piano-lone manufacture, lhe sound-board is supported in its position between the two irameg by a simple appa ratus wbioh regulate us tension, so that the greatest possiblo degree of vibration and sound-produolng capacity is obtained, and regulated to the nloost de an able point. In every upright piano previously manufactured, the action stood upon posts, the lower ends ot whloli losted upon the keys, rendering the mochanism com plicated and liable to get out of order. In the new patent overstrung upright pianos of Sieinway & Hons, the action works directly upon and from the kept, in the same nianuer as in their square and giand pianos, and tbe touch is just as light, agree able, and prompt. Another highly important and delightful improve ment is their newly invented "colt pedal," as ap plied to those instruments. By a simple and most ingenious arrangement the whole line ot bam mors can be moved either in close proximity to the strings or to any desirable part of their striking distance, thereby enabling the perforator at will to produce the lull power ot the instrument, or the softest whisper of its tono, or any desired gradation of crescendo or decrescent, with the most uuernug certainty, l'bo volume ot tone of those new instru ments is, strange to say, tully equal to that ot th.-ir best and most powerful square pianos while tnoir quality is of the most exuui-ite musical oharaotor, pure, sympathetic, and porfectly pliable, too ''singing" capacity and duration of sound of the instrument being truly surprising, thus enabling the pianist to produce a variety of tbe most charming efleots. From a trial and bearing of one of these Instruments, we are convinced of their very great value to music Their length and depth ot tone is extraordinary; their vibratory power is in keeping with the fullest and soundest volume of tone ; and there is a duloot and orystailine olearness in the p'av of tho higher keja. Haored muslo, performed on this instrument, baa a strength and resonance not to be supplied by any other instrument of its size. It is also one of its remarkable merits, that its tone can be brought to a positive olose at will of tho player, thus avoiding the old unmanageable vibration. We have no hesi tation In approving the new instrument, whioh,. with its peculiar and original advantages, seems the most perioct of its c as, Its full beauty ot lorut and mechanism must be seen to be appreciated. AMUSEMENTS. pi Academy of Mcbic Ribtori as "Deborah." Deboraii, or, Leali, the Forsaken, will be produced at the Academy ol Mus e this evening. It is a drama in lour acts, written by S. B. Mosenthal.

For AMitional Local Hems see Third Foge, Total Debtbtjction of the United States Ihon-clad Fbioatb Kew lR0i8iDa." In. addition to our narrative on tho third page of to-day's paper, we have been favored by an eye witness with the following Interesting and aouurate account of the burning oi this magnlfloent ship: To understand the "situation" fully, It is necessary to state that all the Iron-clads In the Delaware were temporarily laid up in ordinary at Leaguo Island, near the city, as soon a they were sont out of com mission at tho close of the war, to await the action of Congress upon the final selection of a per maiient . depot for armored vessels. Tbe light draft iron-clads, and three or four doub'o-enders, were moored In a long lino in tbe channel behind the island, and the mightier ships, the JVttc Ironsidet, Dictator, Canonicus, and Atlanta (the latter captured from the Kebols by the Weeh iw ktn, noar Savannah, Ga.), wore anohored in about lour lathoms ot water on tho river front of the iBland, and about six hundred foet from the shore. 1 he Dictator was larthest down tho river, tho Atlanta astern of ber on the starboard Quarter, and t h a ,.,,. ifs outside of both ; all soenred with massive chains biiu auuuura, witn ineir dows lacing down tho stream, and so close together that you could stop lrom one to tho other. The Cnrmnic.ui. ahmit . month since, was towed up to the yard to be docked and painted, and the old sloop of-war St. Louis and me isiemaits wero hauled betweou the large iron clads and the shore, and above the wharf. The others were in tho position above stated when tun tire occurred. Between 10 and 11 o'clock on Saturday night Mr Fredcnckson, the watchman on duty on tlio I'd ae New Ironsides, observed a strong smell of sufike and turniug wood. Upon investigation, it was leund to issue lrom the engine-ioom, near t ie afier bulkhead, aud near a small stove, watch, we are in- iorinea, was Kept thore lor warming purpo'o. lhe alarm of fire was immediately given, and those on duty on the Dictator, Atlanta, and adjoining vesois, and tne oillcors ot tho iron-clad fleet who are quartered on the Nana, in the back channel, were summoned lor aid. Most ot them had retired lor the night, but the alarm of tire is a peculiarly stirring cry to a naval ofllcor, nnd they were soon on tho spot Commnnder John Irwin, wbo was not well at the timo, was at his not with bis corps ot oilioers, and aotive efforts were made to suppress the lire by means of bucket, and tarpaulins to chock tho drait, eto , but the d.-n-e biack smoke, which now rose in immense volumes, overpowered and drove them to the epnr deck A special messongor, named O'Neill, was des patched to the Navy l'ard lor assistance, and the laithlul tdilow, at a "uouble quick," ran the en iro distance, easily four mile-, in tweuty-nino minutes; and, after alarming tho firo companies In the lower Eart of tbe city, and tbe Second Street Station louse, reported to tbe oilioer of the day, Lieuton it L. C. Cochrane, ot tne Marine Corps, who iminn dirtely aroused the Commandant and other ofBcsrs ol the Jfard. lhe naval tugs l'ilgrim and Qlanre were ordered to get up steam. The captain of the J'itgrim, with commendable dospatoh, sooured a pilot, and by 1 o'clock bad started with the Exocu tive officer of the Yard, Cap ain XV. H. Macomb, and a large company of marines, undor Lieutoniut Cochrane, ior the island, distant by water seven milos. lhe Glance followed a little later, with a detachment of sailors from the reciving alup f 'on tteilation. Long before either arrived, however, the Ironsides wi a doomed oratt. Thottoam fire engine Shiffler was first on the ground, followed by the Nouthwark and Frauklin, and the Marion, Franklin, and Southward liose Companies, and two others, whoe names we are sorry not to recollect, as their nmryollous prompt ness in tuch a long tun waa worthy or allpraiso. Unfortunately, tho tide was at the lowest ebb, and, as the pier or platform leading oat to the ves-eis, which wore moored toeoiber with immense iron chains, was too narrow to admit the wheels ot the steamers, they experienced the double dillioulty of being unablo to procure a proper supply ot water, or approach noarer than five or six hundred feet of the fire. lhe firemen, however, wont to work with a will, and with the assistance of the marines, wbo were detailed to carry luel to the stoamers and assist in leading out the hose, suoooeded in a-ottiuir a lm. tii on tbe bow ot the ship about two o'clock.
