STEINWAY & SONS' PIOS IM A Are acknowledged the best instru ments in .Europe as well as America. The following Setter from the great Artist and Composer, Alex.

From Miss FANNY REED, in Boston, we learn that FRANZ LISZT (the king of pianists), frequen accompanied ecstasi e s Steinway Piano in Rome (Italy 2 and was in about its superiority over others.

THE CONSERVATISM OF THE TIMES Conservatism is a very good thing in its way, particularly when there is any thing worth conserving to conserve; but when men drift into a conservative line by way of tenderness for a notorious wrong, they are apt to flounder about, and if they are especially zealous in their conservatism they are likely to make some terrible mistakes. As a case in point we might mention the New York Times and its principal editor. We have ,generidly held the Times in high esteem; but since Mr. Congresstnan Raymond has become so especially tender towards foiled traitors, and. so very mealy mouthed in speaking of their crimes, Mr. Editor Rayinond has drifted from tender consideration for defeated rebels into active sympathy for them, their crimes and, their partisans, and, naturally enough, into ridiculing the class which`they, have always oppressed. In yesterday's issue of Mr Raymond's paper there is an article, a third of a column long, which is, devoted to bur lesquing Fred. Douglass., Mr. Douglass lately made a speech in Brooklyn, in the course of which he said "I do not And fault with Mr. Beecher, though Ido not always agree with , him, I remember that, not many years';;ago, he declared that, if the Could 'abolislielavery on the instant, or, by waiting twentgr-five years, could`heve it aciabolifdred that its overthrow would wholly , redound' to the glory of the Christian Church, he would prefer the latter:. I presume he was entirely sincere in,this preference; and yet if /were aMary land edarehatder; - and Mr. .Beecher were my slapp, and I had •a rawhide,-I could take this opsnionowt of him in leesthan half anhour." On this - text the - /Imes gives us a homily in which the - writer speedily gets into the old beaten track of five years ago, before Sumter_was fired upen, and when it was fashionable to fall prostrate before the., idol of slavery, and caste and race and feat dirt by the peck. There IS no attempt made in the article to controvert the argument or the logic of Mr. Douglass; but he is slurred at because he "a mulatto , of considerable smartness;" "a six-foot , negro," and "a brawny mulatto;" while Mr. Beecher is referred to as a "Christian gentleman and a philanthropist." We do not object to any words of praise, that may be bestowed upon Mr. Beecher, but when Mr. Beecher, Mr. Douglass'and Mr. Raymond enter into the field of discussion together, we do hold that it is not fair, generous ormanly to allude to the length of the heel, the color of the skin or the peculiar con struction of the shin-bone of the party which gets the best of the argument. There are very many men with skins as white as that of Mr. Raymond who do not agree with Mr. Beecher in the doctrine that theglory of the Christian church could by any possibility be ;en hanced, by the prolonging of the system of human slavery a quarter of a century. Fred. Douglass put the ease pithily, strongly and good naturedly in the remarks which we have quoted above, and the Times would have shown its good sense and its good taste by either saying nothing about it, or by arguing the question upon its merits alone, and by leaving out of the discussion the com plexion of a man whom it has shown its inability to tope with in argument. "Pres. Mau, 'decide." Christian Berger, the murderer of Miss Watts, at Germantown, was last evening convicted of murder of the first degree. This result was expected, as the chain of evidence, even although it was entirely circumstantial, left all doubt of his guilt out of the question, notwithstanding the fact that the confession which he noto riously made was not given in evidence to the jury. There are some features about this case that will give it a place among memorable murders. The criminal is a young man, married within a year, and but recently become a father. He seems, up to the period of the commission of the crime, to have been rather idle and thriftless than vicious, and his worst offences seem to have been running in debt and failing to make any effort to support his family. He knew the habits of the old lady whom he had selected as his victim, and he knew too that rumor attributed to her the possession of a considerable amount of money. This money he determined to secure, and having watched on several occasions to see at what time Miss Watts was alone at home, he prepared himself with a well-sharpened razor, and obtain ing an entrance into the house, he de liberately cut the throat of the poor,old woman. Having obtained what plunder he could lay hands on, the murderer es caped by the back way and fled, no one knows whither. It is known, however, that in his flight he threw away the bloody razor, and that he also made away with a eed belonging to Miss Watts, and some silver spoons which bore the initials of the murdered woman. But the skill and cunning which had thus far ided the butcher in his bloody work seem to have deserted him. He retained the money he had obtained, a little over fifty dollars, and had he concealed it and remained silent he could scarcely have been convicted or even suspected of the terrible crime. About three hours after the murder he turns up again at Germantown, appa rently as unconcerned as though no thing unusual (had happened, and he chats with several persons about the THE CONVICTIO.N OP BERGETE bloody theme as though he had no in terest in the dark deed. But strangest of all, the money that was gaiped at such a terrible cost is coolly expended in paying his honest debts and in making provision for the comfort of his family. The being who was capable of deliberate ly committing one of the most wicked and cruel murders on record, utses the fruits of it like an honest, careful and Conscientious man. It is strange that the human heart and human reason can become thus perverted and distor.ted. Extensive Sales Valuable Real Estate— Extra Valuable Loans and Stocks. • Nears.

On this 'property 15 Walla or pita have been opened and sunk to various depths from 10 to 15 feet, demon strating the existence of three parallel veins of ore of about 1 feet In width and aboutla feat apart; converging to a common centre at the depth of about 150 feet, fbr ming one immense mass or vein of ore extending in length through We property more than half a rude. There are also on this property other veins of ore un explored. All these ores are known as the brown ores, and are very rich, yielding an average of about 6- 70 per ton In gold. The above results having been demonstrated by the rude working of the mines for 'event] years past; the risk of investment in node. ve loped property isnot Incurred, and by the application of modern mining and reducing machinery the Com pany aadcli ate an immediate and large return for their money. Raving as ore that readily yields gYIO per ton, some estimate can be made of the value of this property . with the present Imperfect system of mining. Ten tons of this ore can be taken out and reduced daily from every shaft opened at an expense not exceeding vs per ton leaving a net daily profit of 11,700 for each shaft worked by the Company. The large working capital reserved will enable the Company at once to procure and erect the best modern machinery for:manlpulating the ores, by means of which the yield will be largely increased. These Inines,whilst they produce ores ncher than those of Colorado or I.4vada, have many advantages over them. particularly in an abundance of feel and cheap labor. arid the facility with which they Can be worked during the entire year, whilst those of Colo redo and Nevada can only be worked daring the warm weather. ♦ test assay of an average specimen of the ore from the Canton Mines was made as late as the Zah of „Tannery, of the present year, as will appear from the following tvitificale of Proftwors Booth and Garrett . the Assayers of the Philadelphia Mint• PHILADXLPELLIL, January SC, IS&& Dear Sir: We have carefully assayed the sample of ore from Carson Mine, North Carolina, and find ft to yield ten ounces nine penny weights of pure Gold to the ton of ore.
