IST O T I O E _ T!IE beautiful Piano Fortes of GROYESTEEN & Co. are deemed by all good judges to be the Ultima Tliuie of instruments of the kind. We cannot suggest what is wanting to make a mu sical instrument more porteot. although we are slow t > admit that the limit of improvement can ever be attained. He fore they had brought their Pianos to their pre sent excellence, they had submitted them to compe tition with instruments of the best makers of this country and Europe, and received the reward of mer it. over nil others, at the celebrated World's Fair. It is but justice to say tuattkcjndgmenr thus pronounced lias not been overruled by the musical world. Still, by the improvements lately applied by them t i their Pianos, it is admitted that .<* more perfect in strument has been made. They have accordingly achieved the paradox of making excellence more excellent. Surely, after this, they are entitled to the motto "Excelsior." nov 14-1 y ITCH ! STCH ! ITCH ! SCRATCH I SCRATCH !

Experience Proves there are only Two VALUABLE Machine Stitches: am mm & x uim E L ASTIC S T I TC II AND THE SHUTTLE Oil LOCK STITCII. rpHE (trover & Raker Elastic-Stitch Sewing Machines 1 are superior to all others for the following reasons: 1. They sew direct from the spools, and*require no rewinding of thread. 2. They are more easily understood and used, and less liable to derangement than other machines. . X. They are capable of executing perfectly, without change of adjustment, a much greater variety of work than other machines. 4. The sti'.ch madehy these machines is much more firm, elastic, and durable, especially upon articles winch require to be washed and ironed, than any other stitch. 5. This stitch, owing to the manner in which the under thread is inwrought, is much the most plump and beautiful in use, and retains this plumpness and beauty even upon articles frequently washed and ironed until they are worn out. 6. The structure of the seam is such that though it be cut or broken at intervals of only a few stitches it will neither open, run, or ravel, but remains firm and durable. 7. Unhke other machines, these fasten both endsot the seam by their own operation. 8. With these, machines, white silk is used upon the right or face side of tho scant, cotton may be used upon the other side without lessening the strength or durability of the seam. This can be doue on no other machine, and is a great saving upon all articles stitch ed or made up with silk. y. These machines, in addition to their superior merits as instruments for sewing, by a change of ad justment, easily learned and practiced, execute the most beautiful and permanent embroidery and orna mental work.
