SCHLEY, l’.AI, Correspondence of the Daily Morning News. Nbw Yobk, Sept, Uth, 1830. Well, I hnvonol only seen, but heard Jenny Lind ! and I can only say, that great as my expectations were, she exceeded them far, very far, I have heard PcMa, Grit-i, Sontag and Mnlibrun, and wonderful rs they were, their singing was not like Jenny’s, And still, I think Sontag equally good, but there is an in. descrihublc something about tho other, that charms every body. She is na simple anil unaffected oh a child—this is evident in every action,and when sing ing she appears to be altogether unconscious of the pleasure she is affording. 1 make no attempt to de scribe her voice, for it is indescribable—tliero is one peculiarity however, 1 may mention, and that is the power ol her soztenuto, as it is technically termed; anil her dimmuendo—she dwells upon a note and di minishes the tone, most extraordinarily. The sound steels mvay gradually, until you cun just distinguish it; nnd then you fancy that it is gone, but presently it is heard faintly nguin and then dies uway. Tho ef- 1 feet of this upon the audience, is wonderful—entranc ing. The <• Casta IHca," the prayer in tile first act of Norma, sho sings divinely—very different >o any oth er voculist; but with her it is prayer—inspiration Th» prize song coutuins only twostuuzas, and 1 think it will become very popular. Tho air is lively, but by no means original—it is a great deal like “ My Heart’s in the Highlands." Jenny makes a cadenza-nt the commencement of the second verse, as she breaks into tile uir, which oxseeds anything l lave heard of tho kind—itsturtied the lew who were present at the rehearsal, nnd will take the six thousand who will hear it to-night, by storm, *i bat alone will ensure severa] encores, or I am much niistnken. Jenny wu6 very plainly dressed yesterday, in a plaid barege dress, nud a ii bite muslin visito— slle wore no gloves, and us she commenced Casta Diva, site continued to clap her bauds, marking the time lor the orchestra, as though sho was clear-starching—it was a precisely similar mo- : tiou. I Gcuin, the celebrated batter of Broadway, the pur- | chaser oi the first ticket for Ji nny’s lirst concert in America, is quite u lion, l’cople stand open-mouthed j in Iront ot his store all day, seemingly anxious to see j the man who could pay $825 for a concert ticket. It [ was decidedly the best investin' lit he could make, rnd j " ill give him a notoriety he cuulun’t liuvc purchased | lor live limes the amount. It was a shrewd act, and proved him to bo a long-headed hatter, lie, howev I er, has got us much business as lie can attend to, and l may just say en passant, that his lints, &e., are lirst rate. A curious anil somewhat important trial is now be fore tho U. S. District Court in this city. The suit is brought by AI. E. Harmony, a native of Spain, to re cover $100,000 of Col. .Mitchell of the U. S. Army, act ing under Col. Doniphan, being the value ot some 40 or 50 wagons, mules, &c., which lie took possession of for the use of the army, during th e war with Mexico The defence is that they were seized under tho suspi cion that tho owner was secretly trading with the enemy. No decision has been given yet, but I sup. pose that Uncle Sam will have to fork over. The Asia arrived here to-day at 10 o’clock, so that she runs the Collin’s line pretty hard—she lias made the voyago ill less than eleven days, including the time lost by going to Halifax. Hereafter the Cunar- ders will give Collin’s a luir race, as they are to run j direct between Liverpool and New York, except tliose J bound to Boston. ! ’The America left tn-duy for Liverpool with 50 pas- sengers; and thgGeorgia leaves ut OP. AL for Cha- i gres with about 180 passengers, all bound for El j Dorado. | The Whig Young Men’s Committee hnd a great fir ing ot cannon yesterday in honor of the passage of , -no compromise hill. The' Tribune groans awfully, because tile Wilraot proviso was not applied to nil | the new territory. That paper does not say much j “bout the socialist Banquet cn Monday, which was a ridiculous failure. They talked in the most sangui nary manner there, and wi re for creating a gmlln- t tie right off, to slaughter ull who ore opposed to their peculiar views. Poor demented crcuiurrs. I must he brief tn-day, as I shall write to morrow, nnd endeavor to give your readers some idea of the ! scene at Castle Garden to-night, as I cm foi lunate)}- 1 the possessor of a ticket to r the parquette. on which j I paid na premium. CHAR: l.sDieS. Si^ASmAIEo Tucsulnjr .M iming. September 17, 1850. Largest Circulation In <!;c City i j Altera lapse ol nearly a fortnight, duringthe host part of which time we have hern confined by severe indisposition, we are again enabled to resume our editorial duties. Our readers, especially those of them who have had an encounter with tho “ Broken Bono’’ malady, so prevalent just now, will wc are sure make all proper allowances for our short comings for a few days, until we have hail time to regain our strength and reoruil our energies. In resuming the labors and responsibilities which we were for n tijne compelled to relinquish, we tuko pleasure in acknowledging our obligations to the gen- tlemun who has sonbly supplied our place ill tho in terim. The Columns ol the Rocs attest his indus try taste and judgement. Ship John Bryant. A ship of 720 tons, nnmed John llryant, intended for a packet between Savnn imh and Liverpool, as launched from the ship yard of Messrs. McGowan Si Turned, in Charlestown, Mass, on tho 5th iust. We understand that Edwabd Padelfoiid, Esq ol’ this city, and Alessrs Nathan iel S.\'ow,utid Ephbai.u HaRdi.no, of Boston, to gether with Capt. Benj. Dyer, are the owners of this ship. The John Bryant will be commanded by Capt Benz. Dyer, tormerly master of the Ship Eli Hint', ney, and is expected to he ready for sea by the 81st Inst. She bears the nuine of a Boston merchant well known in this city. The new Ship State Rights, Capt. Warren, which sailed from this port on the 16th ult. hound to Liverpool, sprung a leak and put into Now York on the 11th Inst, to repair. We understand she is but slightly injured. £5^ Collins’ two remaining steamers, the Arctic and Baltic, will soon he ready for sea—the first by the 15th of October, und the second by the 1st of No vember. The Rochester K.nockings. The Rochester Democrat euys that t ci'c has been a serious mutiny amongtlie “knocking girls,” and that matters are nearly ripe for a full disclosure of the grand secret. ’ Father Aluthew was received and entertained by tho city authorities at Nashville, on his arrival there. Rejuvenatinij the Hair. The Washington Republic says that Gen. Twivgs’ accidental disco very by which, as our readers will remember, he found to his amazcmeiit that his honorable gray hairs were resuming their color of youth, is being applied by many persons in that city, all oi whom are verify ing the experience of the gallant General. It is a bright era, Chi#, in which wo live, and they will fall greatly iu the rear who do not occasionally burnish up and rejuvenate themselves. Tho Socialists of New York had a proces sion and banquet at Hoboken, on Alonduy ol last week. Olio ot the speakers suid that society would never get better till the guillotine was reported to, as in 171)2 | but the President protested against such " holesule massacres ot “ people with property.”— Another speaker did not think much of even Louis Blum because he dressed decently and received company in a handsome saloon. A Washington dispatch says that Hon. Alex ander II. H. Stuart, of Virginia, bus accepted the ap pointment of Secretary of the Department of the In terior. ^ Passengers,—-175 passengers sailed in steamer 1'.inpii e 1 roiii New-York tor California, among whom were Judge Burden nud daughter, of Florida. Continued Agitation in Congress. In the Senate on Wednesday 11th inst. the hill to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia was taken up. On Air. Seward’s proposing to withdraw his a- inpndment abolishing Slavery in the District, to be by him renewed at another time an excited debate spring up. Mr. Clay admitted that Congress has full and coin- plete power over the subject, but it would be across . violation of good faith while slavery exists in Alury- an gel (pointing to the door where Jennv hnd just land and Virginia. passed out) 1 may lie allowed to sink where I really belong—into utter insignificance. If there bus ever been u moment when 1 aspired to have the question generally askcil, “Where is Banuuni” that time has Mr. Sewurd argued that the time had come for the abolition of slavery here ; und if not, when will the time come? Mr. Winthrop read a letter from Cnpt. Romiett of Roston, rcplyincto a statement made by Colonel Jeffer soil Davis in the Senate. Col. Duvis staled that there ha.8 born but low cu^on ot troe colored men imprison ed at the Houth. Capt. ltomlett Bays that there had -m" Ht N , ew Orleans, 300 in Savannah. o()0 m Charleston, and 500 tn Cuba. Air. Ilorrien suid the statement was not true as to Skvamiuh. Mr Butler, nnd Air. Downes denied tho state ment so far as it applied to Charleston and New Or leans. On Thursday a vote was hnd on Air. Sew- aiid’s amendment, when it was rejected—ayes to 45 nayt*. Those who voted in the afflrmativo, were Alessrs. Chase, ol Ohio; Dodge, of Wi*.; Hale, of N. Il> Sew- uril, ol N. Y.; and UpiiHin, of Y’erinotit. In the House on Wednesday, the members from California, were admitted to seats and sworn in. On Thursday the Fugitive Slave Dill wus passed. SP A writer iu the Philadelphia Bulletin, who signs himself Henrico, is in the practice of hatching up inaresncsts in the shape of news from the Sjutli, to excite the wonderment ol his more credulous read* grs. His last startling announcement by telegraph from Washington, reads ns follows : Information Inis been received here, by telegraph from Charleston, stating that the people in that city lire luriousat the passage ul the Territorial bills Upon recepl of the news, a public demonstration was gotti n up. and the flag of the Union was trodden under foot. -Meetings have been called in a number of di-triets of South Carolina, to take action upon the present state of affairs. Henrico. We cannot imagine what object the writer can have in view, unless it is simply to indulge his pro pensity for marvellous invention. South Carolina seems to him a perfect- raw-heiW-and-hloody-bonos, ready to his hand, whenever lie wishes to deal in the' terrible. Very tew of his readers will be silly enough to believe the above ridiculous story. This Henrico b the same writer who started the absurd stoiy about the proposed Southern Confederacy, of which Mexico was to be a member, and the city of Mexico the capi. tul. By Magnetic ’■Telegraph' Important from Texas. YVashinton, Sept. 12, OI 1 31 •Mm Secretary of Slate lias just received a tele graphic dispatch from the collector ut New Orleans 1 lie Legislatei e of Texus lots refused to raise troops against the United States, and referred the Texas boundary bill to the people, the •Legislature bavin- no constitutional rigUt to act on it. This is looked upon as u virtual acceptance of the terms of the Injun- dary hill, and a settlement of the vexed question. . , . New Orleans, Sept. 11. Late advices have reached here from Texas, bv which I observe that bills liave passed the Logo lature Id that State, one of which provides that the ferritin v question be given to the people, to lie settled by the popular vole. The other requires fliat the General Ciov* rnnicut (*bnU remove nil tlu* Inditing from Tiacas. A lunre nnd highly rec pec table meeting won recent- ly held at Sun Antonio, at which lesolutions were passed in Invar of preserving tho Union. They were .Tcnny Lind’s First Concert. Tho northern papers contain plowing accounts of the triumph of Jenna I.ind, whose wor.ilertul tal ent as mi artiste seems only to be excelled by her lib. crnlity as h philanthropist. Ilor debut iu New Y’oik has been unquestionably the greatest triumph ever- aecoinplithed by any artiste in this, perhaps in uny country, and if only tho half that is so enthusi astically written about her is true,the honors she has re ceived do not exceed her deserts. In addition to what our correspondent furnishes ns, we give the follow ing extracts from a long account of her first concert which we find in the Philadelphia Bulletin. Alter describing the Immense crowd that had assembled in the saloon of the Castle Garden, the writer thus de scribes the advent nf the Nightingale. At last the moment of breathless expectation arriv cd. The door in the centre of the stage opened, and through the file of the musicians, stepped, or rather bounded, ihe form of Jenny Lind. Then arose such n tempest of enthusiastic welcome as lias never been witnessed on this Continent. The thousands rose like one man. Shout followed shout, hankcrchicfs were waved all over the inmiensd mass, hundreds of Immense boquets were hurled upon tho stage, and in the midst of the iloral heup, the lair songstress was utmost prostrated in repi ated acknowledgments of the welcome oi the crowd. This scene of tremendous excitement lasted fully five minutes. Jenny Lind looked pale nnd agitnted. She was dressed in plain white satin, with a short skirt of white luce over it, a h avy fall of lace around the top of her dress, white Uowers with green leaves in her head, a similar orament on her brenst, diamonds at her buddies, and several brilliant bracelets on her arms. Her light wavy hair was parted plainly and brought down over her ears. Her appearance, with out being handsome, is prepossessing, and when she smiles her face lights up into almost positive beuuty. Her complexion is good, her head well set upon her shoulders, neck and arms well developed, hut not so as to destroy the spiritual character of her figure, which, in every respect, is graceful, dignified und lady like. Alter the excitement had subsided, and she was permitted to resume her erect posture, you could see tier summoning up her resolution, driving down her agitation, and nerving herself for the task of pleasing those who evidently expected so much from her. The orchestra commenced the slow, graceful prelude to tho Casta Diva, ur.J us it' advanced, sho sto >d un moved, with her hands folded before her, and scarce ly seeming to breathe, as she surveyed the ocean of gazers around her. At last the prelude was done, and the low breathing of her voice in the moot de licious of all compositions was heurd, swelling out gradually until it tilled the hall completely. Every bar ot the andante wus perlect. Now the voice rose to the tone of queely majesty befitting the inspired priestess, and again died uwuy so delicu ely, that it seemed tho breuthing cf a spirit of another world ; closing with a prolonged shake, pianissimo, more seraphic and enchanting, thun anything we have ever listened to. The writer then proceeds with the programme of the entertainment, rapturously discribiug the almost superhuman power - ol the great cantulrice as dis’ played in the execution of every piece. The programme concluded with the prize song by Bayard Taylor, set to music by Benedict TliiB is so much above the ordinury level of prize compositions, that I copy it for your readers. GREETING TO AMERICA WORDS BY HaYAuD TAYLO —MUSIC BY JULES BEN EDICT I greet, with a full heart, the Land of the West, Whose Ramie, of Stars o.era world is unrolled; Whose empire o’ershaduws Atlantic's wide breast, And opus to the sunset its gateway of gold I The laud of the mountain, the land ot the lake, And rivers that roll in muguilicenttidc— Where the suuls of the luiglily from slumber awake And hallow the soil for whose freedom they died ! Thou Oracle of Empire ! though wide bo the foam That severs the luini of my fathers and thee, 1 beur, from thy bosom, tin- welcome ol home, For Song has a home in toe hearts of the F'rce! And long as thy waters shall gleam in the sun, And long us thy heroes remomberthoir scars, Be the hnnds of thy children united as one, And Fence shed Uer light on the Banner of Stars I The music ofthis is bold and spirited. Al’Ile Liud's pronunciation of English is very good* and she stmgit as if anxious to throw her whole soul into this tribute to the country tliut lias opened its arms to receive hi r. At its close another tumult of applause arose, and after once more appearing before the curtain, and bowing low and repeatedly ns the bouquets showered around her, ehe retired, anil the festival was over. Belore the tumult had subsided the honest face of Barnum, tile hero of the evening, appeared, glowing in smiles, nnd amid loud cheers he advanced to the foot-lights. Shouts of'“Barmim! Barnum! Hurrah for Barnum!" greeted him, ami it was some time before sufficient quiet was restored to enable him to speak, which he did ns follows; Ladies and gentlemen—I have but one favor to ask ol you—and that is, that in the presence of that passed by forever. 1 acknowledge frankly, that alter such a display ns we have had to night, Barnum is nowhere. But, my friends, 1 beg to tell you where Jenny Lind is. I shall not speak ot her musical tul- ents ; you know wind they are better than I cun tell you; you have shown by yourungovernablu applause to-night that you appreciate her incomprehensible und indescribable vocal abilities, but 1 must announce a circumstance regarding her wfeich 1 cannot allow you to leave without knowing—she begged me not to do it. On ordinary occasions I would obey her every wish ; but I feel it is due to state the fact 1 al lude to. Under the contract between Jenny Lind and myself, she is entitled to one half the net proceeds ol every copcert given under our ngfeemint. On this Decision, the expenses being more lor tile first concert than will usually be the case, her portion of the profits will be in the neighborhood of $10,000. I received a message Irotn her this morning, in which sho declared that she would not receive one penny ol the proceeds of this concert, but will devote every fartfiing of it to-m-rrow morning for churituble purposes. It will be disposed of as follows : To tho F’ire Department Fund $3,000 Alu.-icul Fund Society 2,OIK) Dome for the Friendless 500 Society for Relief of Indigent Females..... film Dramatic Fund Association Home lor Colored and aged persons Lying in Asylum for Destitute Families... New York Orphan Asylum Protestant Halt Orphan Asylum Home for Col. red Orphan Asylum Roman Catholic Half Orphan Asylum.... Old Ludiea' Asylum. , T'dtd $10,000 III case llie money coming to her shall exceed this suht, she will hereufier designate the charity to which it Blittll be nppropriuted.” The fact cominunicntrd in this fproch hnd born whi-pered nmoiig a few of tin* audience, hut it whs not- generally known, nnd when it was publicly an nounced, ut) pen can picture the scene. Every man and woman in tho house rose and stood upon their seutd, “liurruh for Jmny I” ‘‘Hurrah lor JJarnmn ! M and a coniused Babel of other cries was hoard. 'J hive cheers ior Jenny Lind were culled tor and give n tiv- inendoubly. Three more—-and three more—hut J lost the count, and have hut a confused, indistinct rec ollection ot u succession of eliouta such n.s 1 never heard belore. In the meantime, the modest and gloriouH little he roine ot the evening had escaped to her carriage, and Jietore one of the crowd hnd If ft the hall, «he was halt way up to the New York Hotel. Barnum an- no 11 need this fact, and then the audience begun to move slowly out. Alter the concert was over, the members of the American Musical Kuna Society, in token of their gratitude ior M lie. Lind’s liberal donation, were hastily assembled, and accompanied by DpUswoith's Band, proceeded to the front ot the New York Hotel An immense and excited crowd -fathered around them,’ and music and cheers alternately rose upon the air until at length M’lle, Lind appeared upon the bnlco’ ny, and acknowledged the ovation gracefully, as ,-ho does everything else. Miss Ahman.-Vv and her secre tary accompanied her. After an interchange of hiI- utatiohs, and a renewal ot the cheering. M*l!e I iud disappeared, und the crowd slowly and reluctantly retired.
