FROM DR. LOWELL MASON. "Mason & Hamlin's School-Harmoniums are the very thing needed for school purposes. Most valuable are they to train the ear to tone-relations and to pitch, and also to sustain the chorus of song. They are to music in school much as is a dictionary to language, or a map to geography, or a blackboard to everything. Surely no school-room can be completely furnished without one. LOWELL MASON."

"ORANGE, N. J., September, 1862."**

A NEW MUSICAL INSTRUMENT,

FOR PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS, Sabbath Schools, Village Churches, Parlors and Vestries.
