CARHART & NEEDHAM. ESTABLISHED 1846&

Are the old6st manufacturers of Improved Reed Instru ments in the United States, and are the in'ventors and patentees of the essential improvements made in this class of instruments up to the present date.

Durlng this long period they have manufactured a vst number. of instruments-of all styles; AgJAND WHEREVER THEY HAVE BERN EXHIBITED IN COMPETITION WITH THE IN 5TBUMENTS OP OTHER MAKERS, THEI HAVE INVARIABLY TAKEN THE HGXOEST PnEIM.

THE LAST TRIUMPH OF CARHART & NEEDHAM. At the Fair of the American Institute held in New York

in 1865, Carhart & Needlian received -the- Speci Gold Me(dal over all other reed instruments in competition. The Judges were Dr. Wm. Berge, C. B. Seymour (critic of the

N. F. Times), Thomas Appleton, organ builder of Boston, Georgb Jardine, organ builder of New York, and Dr. E. Ringer, an expert.

ExTnAOT5 FInOM iTHE SEVERAL REPORTS OF THE JuGEs: From roport of Dr. Wm. Berge.

"The quality of the tone is the best I have ever heard; and the number of stops surpassed my expectations. The delicacy of toucd and the quickness of speech are romarka. ble. I consider the Parlor Organ of Carhart & Needham to be the best on exhibition, and entitled to the highest award of the institute."

From the report of C. B. Seymour. "The undersigned thinks it proper to suggest that Car.

hart & Needham shouild receive a Special First Premium for their large Parlor Organ."

From report of Thomas Appleton. "No. 526 is the best for, 1st, It contains more reeds and

of greater variety than any otlher. 2d, The reeds are placed above the key-board, thereby allonving a greatervol ume of sound to be heard. 3d, The successtul application of tho swell rvhich makes this instrument rbsemble the chuvrh organ more nearly than any previous arrangoment. 4th, The voicinig of the reeds is remarkable, and in the smoothness and quality of tone they resemble pipes more than reeds. lXiy-The instrument is undoubtedly superior to any ever before constructed twith reeds."-j

From report of Goorge Jardine. Carhart & Needham were the first in tho world to dis

cover and demonstrate that vibrating tongues or reeds can descend in the bass with the very finest quality of tone, rich, round and full, of quick articulation and free from winidiiess, to the 32 feet tone of C. C. CC."

From roport of Dr. Ringer. "No. 526 is the best for its superior softness, evenness and power of tone, being less reedy than in any instru

ment I have examined. 2d, For the great number of keys of different character of tone, which give the player an almost infinite variety of combinations."

From Wat' on's Weekly Art Journal. AwAID8 TO MUszOAi INsTRU8ENTs.-A Gold Medal was

awarded at the late Fair of the American Institute to CAR HART & NEEDHAH, for the best reed instrument on exhi bition-a most deserved testimonial.

'They are an exceedingly good substitute for an organ,

and I can speak of them in the highest terms." GEO. W. MORGAN.

"I have found them to be the finest instr-ument of the class I ever saw." GE,o. F. BRisTow.

"They are entitled to be ranked as the first and best among instruments of their class" WM. A. KING.

"The tone is i'comparable, and they ae far in adgance of any other instrument of a similar kind."
