OTI O E _
The beautiful Piano Fortes of Gkovistke.v A Cu. are i
deemed by all good judges to be the Ultima Thulr of |
instruments of the kind.
We cannot suggest what is wanting to make a mu
sical instrument more |>erlect. although we are slow
to admit thai the limit of improvement can ever la
attained.
Before they had brought their Pianos to their pro
sent excellence, they had submitted them to compe
tition with instruments of the best makers of this j
country and Europe, and received the reward of nu-r- I
it, over all others, at the celebrated World's Fair. It j
is but justiee to snv tnat the judgment tlitis pronounced
has not been overruled by the musical world.
Still, by the improvements lately applied by them
to their l'ianos. it is admitted that a more perfect in
strument has been made. They have accordingly
achieved the paradox >f making excellence more
excellent. Surely, after this, they are entitled to the
motto "Excelsior." nov!4-ly
