Mb. Woufsohn’s Classical Matinees.
—The second of this series was given yes
terday afternoon, at the Foyer of the Acad
emy, to a large and interested audience.
The novelties of the programme presented
were a lovely Impromptu of Schubert, inter
preted by Mr. Wolfsohn with considerable
delicacy of treatment, and a Scherzo Cap
pricioso of Mendelssohn, a beautiful mor
ceau, possessing that indescribably chaste
beauty that marks all bis piano works, but
at the same time not equal to the other two
numbers of the same Bet.
Mr. Wolfsohn also performed theF minor
Fantasia (op. 19) of Chopin, perhaps the
composer’s greatest work; and his own
Album Leaves , a series of six unpretending
little studies, several of which possess great
merit.
Mr.Pollak’B performances evidence study
and a good sohool;but his voioe and manner
are not of the pleasantest character. His
singing of the Mozart aria Addio, was much
superior to his rendering of. one of
Schumann's beautiful songs, Fluthenreicher
: JSbro, which was not a sucoess. <Mr. Rieae,
the accompanist, is evidently inexperienced
iUtifie business; he frequently seems to
■f&rget ihat the principal duty of the acoom
panist is not to drown out the singer, but to
, support him.

The trial of Michael J. Whelan,Peter Wart,
Michael McCoy and Michael Dougherty,
charged with robbery in the first degree,
was finished yesterday in the General Ses
sions. When the jury came into court for
further instructions, Recorder Haokett
withdrew the case from further considera-
tion by making the startling announcement
that it was officially communicated to him
that Mr. Wm. H. Bolton, one of the jurors,
. tiered to disagree for the sdm of $250. Mr.
Bolton denied the allegation, whereupon
ti e Recorder informed him that the matter
would be presented to the Grand Jury, and
that be would have an opportunity”to re
fute the charge at the proper time.
An opinion was given yesterday in the

supposed will not recover. The flames did
not extend above the basement story, and
the damage will not amount to more than
one thousand dollars.

i Last evening a fire originated on the third 1
floor of the premises, No. 11l Liberty street, l
and rapidly-spread through the upper por- I
tion of the building. Before’ the'firs was l
extinguished the three upper floors were [
burned out, and the remainder of the build- i
ing deluged with water. The basemeat, }
first, second, and third floors were occupied I
by Mackey & 8r0.,' importers of fancy glass |
ware, crockery, earthenware and artloles of I
vertu. The stock was a very large one, and I
t at portlon'of it on the third floor was com- I
plettiy mined. Tbe loss by water on the |
first and second floors and basement is also I
very considerable. Tbe actual, loss will |
probably be about §70,000. Probably in- I
sured, but in wbat companies could not be
ascertained, owing to the absence of the oo- j
oupants.
The fourth and fifth floors were occupied
by Henry H. Heimendinger, wholesale
dealer in boots and shoes. His stock is al
most completely destroyed. Loss about)
§20,000. Probably insured. The building
i, damaged to the extent of §B,OOO. Insured.
Lengths of hose were taken through the
building No. 33 Courtlandt street,in order to
reach the fire from tbe rear, and in so doing
the stock on some of the floors was damaged
by water. The first floor is occupied by
Lyon & Bro ; dealer in Yankee notions; 103 s
about §200; insured. The second floor is
occupied by P. Goldmark, manufacturer of
percussion caps; loss about $300; inanred.
The third floor is occupied by O. A. Wilcox,
manufacturer of floor and sauce sieves; loss
about §200; insured.

- Notional Progrreas.
Among the most notloeable results of the
late rebellion, is tbei now universal admin
sion of the fact that this, country ranks as
one of the most formidable belligerent
powers of the earth. Yet, while our .mar
tial achievements have been so truly won
derful, they have in no way outstripped our
unexampled progress -in soienoe and the
useful arts, or in the creation and develop
ment of either of the elements of a great
and constantly increasing material pros
perity. The ruling characteristics of our
people are patient industry, self-reliance,
and ready as.well as fertile Inventive genius
in the use of practical resources, and to
those features must our national greathess
be mainly attributed. -
Our purpose at the present time, is to al
lude more particularly to our extraordinary
strides in manufactures, in which, although
we. may be said to have had only a little
over half a century’s experience, we have
in many instances "fairly surpassed all com
petitors. As its construction calls for the
highest qualifications of mental genius, as
well as mechanical skill, and as it was oon-
ceived abroad, but perfected here at home,
we have concluded to adopt the Pianoforte,
one of the most pleasurable companions
of life, as our theme on this oocaslon.
It is truly remarkable that while poetry,
architecture, sculpture, and probably
painting attained their highest state
of perfection among the ancients,
it has been reserved for the moderns to
achieve excellence in music; and this fact is
undoubtedly owing to the superior mechani
cal skill of the present age. Thus the music
of the old composers was but a fair example
of the instruments for which it was written;
but as new instruments were invented and
old ones improved, music was elevated to
the level of its sister arts. The Pianoforte
i f that time, though but a feeble illustration
of the instrument of the present day, was
one of the principal aids In effecting this
result. It was an improvement on the old
instruments known as Harpsicord Spinet,
etc., and was first conceived in Italy, about'
e century and a half ago.
We have no positive evidence as to when
’be manufacture was first introduced iu
America ; but we find from authentic re
cords, that: “On the 12th of February, 1800,
a patent was granted to John J. Hawkins,
< i Philadelphia, for an improvement in
Pianofortes, whioh he manufactured and
t old at fifteen. South Second at.” It seems,
however,- that this claimed improvement
must have been of little, or no value, for
v hen Jonas Chiokering, the General Grant
i f Pianoforte construction, commenced
1 usiness in Boston, in 1823, nearly all of
t:-.e instruments sold iu this country
v ere imported from Europe. Mr. Chioker
itig was a man of superior mechanical
f. ssxii and scientific powers, of exquisite
i aste, an undaunted will, and a full oonfi
(Uncein hiB‘*missioD.” He well knew that
< ur national resources were equal to those
< f any country ou earth, and his after life
pave unqualified demonstration of this fact.
He commenced the manufacture of the
pianoforte with confidence in his ability to
improve it, and many of his inventions,
i particularly the iron frame and circular
scale, have been universally adopted. Hiß
.. hole mind was absorbed in a perfect pi&no
f rte. and np to the day of bis demise, which
occurred in 1853, he left no available means
untried in endeavoring to attain the great
i esideratum. At the time .of his de
cease, Mr. Chickering, in connection
with his sons, who had already become
r.is business associates, was engaged in
• recting the superb edifice, fronting ou
Iremont street, Boston, which is over one
: bird larger than auy other building iu the
world used for the exclusive manufacture of
the pianoforte. His children, who Inherited
tbeir father’s great business qualifications,
and were educated expressly for tue pur
pose, continued the work so auspiciously
inaugurated, and now, as the establishment
is entering the forty-fourth year of its exist
ence. We find the whole musioal world
coming forward to do homage to its incom
parable products. Not only the musical
professors and experts of this and foreign
countries worship at the shrine of Chicker
iogs’ pianofortes, but the moat eminent
manufacturers of Europe, the Broad
woods, the coliards, and others, pro
nounce them unsurpassed and unsurpas
sable.
We could readily fill a dozen columns
with the recommendations of such great
masters as Thai berg, Plaidy, Pozuanski,
Wehli, Pychomskl, Keinecke, Gottschalk,
Von Arnold, Batter, Basalni, Musio, Jael,
De Meyer, Benedict, Strakosch, Napoleon,
Gold beck, Hoffman, Burke, Sanderson,
Warren, etc., but bar space compels ub to
make! brief extracts from only two or three
of tbem. Gottschalk says: “Harmonious
roundness of tone, force in the bass notes,
limpidity in the npper notes, equality
throughout all the registers, singing quality
in the middle tones, and above all an aston
ishing prolongation of sound, without its
being confused. The upper note 3 are
<« markable for a clearness and purity, which
I do not find in any other instrument,white
ibe bass is distinguished for power without
harsbness, and for a magnificent sonority.”
Wehli says: “I have never known so noble
a tone; it yieldß every expression needed in
music; and its quality is capable of change
to meet every sentiment. In depth, volnme,
and power of tone it is equal to all demands
and however it isforced, it loses none of its
original purity of tone and its softest whis
pers can be heard in the remotest corners of
•he largest halls, even when crowded.
I believe that in every parti
cular your Pianos are, for the
reasons here given, superior to any I have
ever seen in this country or in Europe.
Pi znanski says: “The superiority of your
arand pivnos over all others I have seen and
thoroughly tested, render my decision as
easy in the matter as prompt I have re
cognized in yonr extraordinary excellent
i.siruments all these qualities of which
Yhalberg formerly spoke to me. Your
.rand pianos well sustain the claim of yonr
instruments to superiority over all others.”
viusiosayß: “I consider yonr pianos the
tinest I ever played on.” Batter says: “For
' olume and fine quality of tone, with nicety
>t articulation, the Chickering pianos are
uneqnaled.”
While the mnsical qualifications of Chiok
eiiug & Sons’ pianos are so jealously
eunrded, the mechanical construction is
matched and perfected with equal excellence.
A fter the wood remains on the premises for
•wo or three years, in order to acquire a
-uitable seasoning, each case is several
months in the oonrse of construction, and
m their most minute details, every instru
ment must oome up to the highest standard
of excellence before it can be received in
be warerooms. In regard to the durability
..I Cbickering's pianos we can only say,
ask your neighbor; for of the forty thou-,
sand they have already made aud sold, you.
are sure to find one in yonr vicinity. We
can vouch that our Cbickering has been in
constant use nearly eighteen years, and we
would not exchange it for a new one of any'
other maker extant. In regard to dura
bility, Gotlsohalk says: “As a proof of the
rare solidity of their construction, I may re
mark, that in a period of 1,100 concerts, I
have never broken a string in publio, al
though my pianos, from constant change of
locality, are exposed to all the wearof trans
portation, and often to inclemency of the
weather.” In truth, the instruments are
msde to wear. Every part, inside and out,
is honestly, faithfully, and thoroughly com
pleted, so it will readily bear the most ml
oute inspection. ' . '
The Chlob bring & Sobs Pianos have been
exhibited stall the prominent industrial ex
hibitions throughout the country. They
received the prize medal atthe World’s
Fair in London, and up to thepresenttime
tiave been awarded sixty five first prize
medals. The Chickering pianos embrace all
the usual modifications of Grand, Square
and Upright—thelatter a specialty which is
becoming- exceedingly popular, owing to
ihe' small s'paoe it'occupies. The firm have
just; finished' about one dozen, examples,
which ere to be placed iff the Grand Indus
trial Exhibition in Paris, which opens to
the public early next Spring, Our coun
trymen can depend npon. these products
fully sustaining the enviable reputation of
the Chiokering pianofortes.
, The establishment of the Chiokerings is
purely a National one, owned and con
ducted by Americans, with American capi
tal, npon upright American principles.
The proprietors are thorough practical,men,
who in ven tanddraw their own 'scales, de
sign exteriors, and, in short, plan the instru
ments from beginning to end. Their work
men are nearly all to the “manor born,”
many of them, as boys and men, having
spent the major portion of their existence in
the employment of the house. The instru
ments, even to cutting the veneers, and
'making the castings are wholly and solely
made on the premises. In fact, American
genins directs, American skill manipulates,
American materials are consumed, and
Ihroughout the products are eminently
American, and really aid In giving an im
petus to National'aggrandizement—2V". T.
