its social importance is, beyond all question, far

As a piano forts is an intricate, ingenious and
elaborate piece of mechanism, ths quality sf ths
music prodoosd from it, as well as ths durability
of the instrument itself, depends on ths skillful anil
perfect manner of its soastruotion, for the sccemp-

The PsarsnTiow or Aar.—The beautiftll instru-
ment manufactured by Undeman A Sons, No. 2 Le-
roy Place, ltleeker St., New York, the Cycloid Pi-
ano. is espe cially worthy of the attention of the
purchasing public. It differs from all other piano
in form of being eircular.
The form is very elegant, and it takesupless
room, while it ia more powerful than any square
piano we know of. The ease, which describes the
form of an arch is of extraordinary slrengtb, so
much ao that all the massive blocks nf lumber whi"h
are found in a'l aquar* pianos, are done away with,
and ihe whole instrument is a solid an a uuuhernia-
ted eonductor of aound.
The peculiar aolidity gives to the tone of the in-
etrument a wonderful inereass ' f power, a pro-
longed sonority which is never found in a squsre
piano, combined with a richness, purity, and dis-
tinctness of Intonation, which are as rare aa they
are beautlftil. The touoh of the instrument is un-
exoeptiohably excellent and oan be regulated to
suit the peculiarities of every performer.
All the eminent professors who have tried these
instruments pronounce them e positive success, a
mauilest iniprov.mini on ths pretentmode or man-
ufa: re, and destined to work a great revolutio n
1 > this branch of trade of the building ef the Cyc-
