WEDNESDAY MORNING. ???RCH*6, 1867." LOST. Not lost in the grave-ah no ! Thunk God 1 ho has life and health ; But lost in the crowd that goes to and fro. Ceaselessly, restlessly to and tro. In the quest of worldly wealth. I had many friends in my youth : But of all I loved him most. In his dark eyes shone tho spirit of truth. When we mot and loved in tho days of our youth 1 'Tis only ten years-and he's lost ! Lt :e seems so lonely and strango t But I pray that my heart bo strong; For this ia a world of shadow and change A weary world of shadow and chango And friendship's a name for a song. Lost I my tenderly cd friend; Gone with the selfish host; Forgetting that wo were to love to the end No matter what happened, to love to the end For over and ever lost! COMMERCIAL.

Among the chlefpolnts of excellence of the Ohicker? lng Pianos, of which apeak the renowned artists in their congratula tory testimonials to the Messrs.

THALBERG, I consider Chickering & Sons' Pianos, beyond com? parison, the beat I have ever seen In America. GOTTSCHALK. They are unrivalled for their singing qualities and for the harmonious roundness of their tone. There is a perfect homogeneity throughout all the registers. The upper notes are remarkable for a dearness and purity which I do not find in any other Instrument, while the base ls distinguished for power without harshness, and for a magra n pent sonority. Your Pianos are superior to any I bava ere? sees m this country or in Europe. I have sever heard a tone so perfect; lt yields every expression that ia needed in m oslo, and ita quality ii capable of change to meet every sentiment. This is a rare power, and is derived from the perfect ? purity of lu tone, together with ita sympathetic, elastic and well balanced tenon. POZNAN SKI.
