of this great instrument. Other giant organs liavo been built, and tho Sydney organ is no longer, as once it was, ” tho largest organ in tho world.” Nevertheless, it remains one of the fine.st instruments in existence, and organists may like to be re­ minded that its draw-stops number 140, of which 20 are on the- great organ, 24 on tho Swell, 20 on tho Choir, 20 on the Solo, 8 on. tho Echo, and 26 on the Pedal Organ,— and there are 14 couplers. Alterations made since ' tho original building of the organ liave added to it louvred shutters to the Swell box, ncw Swoll boxes for the Choir and Solo organs, and electro-pneumatic Swell-pcdals to Swell, choir and echo organs. Tho sizo of tho Sydney instrument is its least claim to tho esteem of organists, for it is famous for tbo beauty of its tone and especially that of tho quieter stops.
