NEW YORK HERALD. ‘Wednesday, December 27, 1843" De. Warwericut’s Lecrvry ox Music.—This very elegant and interesting discourse will be found | on our first page. It was very well delivered and it reads very well. It comes very apropos just now | when people are beginning to inquire into the philo | sophy of all this mania about music, the violin and Ole Bull. In alluding to our want of a national music, we think the reverend lecturer might have | thrown a little morsel of approbation and encour- | agement in the way of Master Diamond, Jim Crow Rice, the shilling concerts, and De La Ree, the po- | pular melodist of the American Republican party. | Depend upon it, Doctor, the germss of a national | music are sprouting forth as beautifully as the young | corn beneath the smiles of that rosy, blooming las- sie, Spring. The “ Invisible Singers” at Bassford’s and the Cornucopaia also look very much like the forerunners of a great era of national music; and there’s a modesty about this young effort which we very much admire. It promises well. Oh! never mind, we’ll have a national music one of these days. It don’t take us long to get up anything in these diggins. The American Republican Party—Its Po- sition—Its Leaders—Its Prospects. The great new popular movement, which has been running its cycle with such amazing rapidity, has at length reached a very important crisis in its history. A few impradent acts—a slight departure | from sound and just policy—a seemingly trivial | error in management, may peril the very existence | of the American Republicans as a party. The great meeting at Vauxhall Gardens demonstrated in a sufficiently imposing manner, the strength, the enthusiasm, the vigor of this remarkable organi- on, It must have convinced the most scep- tical spectator, that were the city election to take place to-morrow, ‘“‘ Young America” would riumphantly carry her whole ticket. But this very strength—this very consciousness of strength bring with them danger—increased responsibility—the elements, indeed, of annihilation, unless by pru- dence, sagacity, and foresight, they be effectually subdued. At sucha moment friendly and dispas- sionate advice is needed, and at such a moment friendly and dispassionate advice ought to be grate- fully received. Three months have yet to elapse before our next election. A not much greater period of time has sufficed to bring the new party to its present gigantic growth—before the expiration of a similar period it may have returned to that state of cradled weakness from which it so remarkably bounded to the vigor of manhood. In these three months, the active politicians of both the old factions will be on the alert; they are watching with all imaginable interest the new movement, and are quite prepared to take advantage of any division—any inter- ruptions in its harmonious action—any weak point which may invite their envenomed attacks. Hence arises one very obvious reason for the exercise o! the greatest caution, the greatest prudence, the greatest watchfulness on the part of the American | Republican party. Another strong motive for the observance of extreme cautionis presented in the much esteemed by that large and important portion of our citizens, of which he is a worthy representative. He isa plain, practical man,—has a good deal of ambition, but not much originality or comprehensiveness of intellect. Mr. Oakley is, perhaps, better known as a tem- perance orator than as one ofthe principal speakers of the American Republican party. He too, is a young man, and keeps, we believe, a respectable grocery store. He is a perfect Boanerges, his ve- hemence of manner exceeding even that of Sam- mons. His standing topics are Bishop Hughes— corduroy breeches—the Dutech—and the Bible in the Common Schools. Mr. Oakley isa very effi- cient member of the party, but whatever may be his numerous other talents, he is not exactly quali- fied to advise, govern or guide a party. De La Ree—the popular melodist of the party is too important a portion of the working machi- nery to pass unnoticed. He is about eight and twenty, of aslim, genteel figure, dresses in excel- lent taste, and cultivatesa magnificent pair of black whiskers, but no moustache, that having very pro- perly been voted a foreign abomination by the na- tive party. De La Ree, we venture to say, has done more for the party than any ix of its orators. He has embodied the popular feeling and enthusi- asm in verses, which, if not exactly as elegant as Tom Moore’s, are equally spirited and effective.— Like the poet of Erin, too, De La Ree sings his own songs in exquisite taste at the meetings. Indeed, his songs are the great feature of the meetings. If any little controversy occurs,De La Ree sings asong, and the effect is as snothing as were the strains of David’s harp on thedisturbed spirit of the Israelitish King. Has the audience got tired out by a dull speech? De La Ree comes forward and re-kindles their enthusiasm, patriotism, and zeal, till they get toared-heat. The service which De La Ree has done the party in putting into such popular shape its principles and watchwords, is so obvious as to need no further explanation. One of these verses will be understood, remembered and repeated in a thou- sand instances,where a long address or speech would be altogether ineffective. We think that when “Young America” has carried the city, she must create at least one new office in the room of the many useless ones she will abolish, and make De La Ree the Poet Laureate of the Common Council: Other melodists there are in the party, as Mulli- gan, and Van Buskirk; and other orators, as Wood- ruff, Hopper, Peck, Ascroft, Fay, and soon. But they do not present any very distinctive features which call for particular notice. One thing may be remarked of them all. With the exception, per- haps, of Monroe and Sammons, these leaders are all men who have hitherto been unknown in the political arena. They are new men altogether— thrown up spontaneously in the general ebullition of the popular elements. Without experience in the management ofa party—without much striking talent—without, in fact, any unusual share of the means of attaining popularity—they have yet been placed in the responsible position of leaders of a great popular movement—-a movement which may eventuate in revolutionary changes of which not one of them dreams. And what has thus far kept the party together ? Has it been the sagacity---the discussions which already begin to be carried on [skill—-the talent--of these “leaders”? With all relative to the candidates of the party and the mode of their nominations. Here a great deal of wis- dom and forbearance and good sense will be neces- sary. The imperative necessity, and yet the diffi- culty of conducting these discussions, and making these nominations judiciously, are very apparent. A moment’s reflection on the matters at which we thus merely glance, will be quite sufficient to open the eyes of all members of the party to the delicate and important position in which they are now placed. During the coming three months the agi- tation must be kept up with unremitted spirit, and yet with great moderation—with vigor, and yet forbearance—with coolness, perseverance, dili- gence, and an enthusiasm properly directed and kept within proper limits. And how is all this to be done? In replying to this question, we naturally direct our attention to the leaders—the orators— the public representatives of the party; they who assume to speak and act for it. Who are they, and what are their respective merits? First in the list, not as the ablest man of the party, but as the individual whose name was earliest best known in the party, we have Mr. Sam- mons. He is a tall, athletic, raw-boned man, of about five and thirty, with sandy hair, dark grey eyes, high-cheek bones, and looksa good deal like a Scotchman. He wis very active during the log- cabin campaign, as a stump orator in the service of Harrison, and in that way acquired considerable experience in addressing popular assemblages. He has little originality, and his style is decidedly more vigorous than elegant. Mr. Sammons is, however, by no means an ineffective speaker. He | is very fluent—very loud—very boisterous—very | abusive—and very illiberal—and thus as is suffi- ciently obvious, is a very capital orator for the masses. Mr. Sammons fis indeed a good deal of a favorite with the party. But he is overbearing, am- bitious, desirous to dictate to the party, and very jealous of any one who promises to turn out a for- midable rival. In the recent controversy in the | First Ward, Mr. Sammons discovered a good many | of the prominent traits of his character in his 1e- | contre with Mr. Ralph. If Mr. Sammons have a) sincere regard for the prosperity of the party, and | we have not the slightest reason for thinking oth- | erwise, he will be exceedingly cautious about any assumption of dictatorial powers. He is unques- | tionably inclined that way, and hence the affec tionate and judicious character of our advice is fully apparent. Colonel Monroe, of the Twelfth, Ward, is one of the most influential men of the party. He is al very gentlemanly man—an eloquent and popular speaker—and well-informed on all political matters. | Associated with him ate Mr. Hall,’and many other | able and respectable citizens of the Twelfth Ward, who do not make a great deal of noise, but | are by no means inactive or inefficient in the great | work of reform. The members of the party in| this ward, are indeed more definite, precise and determined in their views than those in any other. They go distinctly for city reform, and appear to | concentrate all their energies on the achievement | of that grand and important object. | Benjamin Shurtleff Whitney is one of the young- possible respect for the abilities, patriotism and good sense of these gentlemen, we answer in the negative. The great cohesive principle of this party, has been a general, pervading, actuating feeling amongst the great mass of the independent citizens of this great metropolis, that they had too long submitted to the misgovernment of corrupt and tyrannical factions, and that the time had come to throw off the yoke, and make a last effort to ob- tain, what they hed so long looked for in vain both from whigs and locofocos, namely, the blessings of good, cheap, just and equal government—clean streets, equal and just distribution of office, low taxes, no feasting of fat aldermen at the public expense, and plenty of Croton water to all, the rich and the poor, the poor washerwoman at the corner of Mott street, as well as Alderman Purdy. This has been the bond of Union—this has been the Leader—this has beenthe Agitator—this has been the true creating and governing Principle of the American Republican Party. The great mass of the people want reform—first municipal reform— and then all the necessary reforms. This explains the apparently miraculous growth of this party— without any great orators—any great leaders—any great party organization. It has been the sponta- neous bursting forth of the popular disgust at the conduct of cerrupt whigs and locofocos, and the popular desire and determination to obtain reform. And now let the men who have been tacitly per- mitted to act as the mouth piece of the movement, and its temporary leaders, look well to it, that they be faithful, prudent, and animated by the feeling and principle,which have created them mouthpieces and leaders. Let no petty schemes of individual advan- tage—no spirit of rivalry—no longings for the pow- er of dictation—no evil influences from without or from within—be allowed to impede the progress of this great movement. Mr. Sammons must take care, and so must allhisassociates. We shall care- fully observe them. There must be no sort of in- terference of one ward with the management of | the affairs of another. Let each ward be allow- ed to conduct the business of its own organi- zation without dictation from other quarters.— And let the speakers direct their attention more to the great question of the abuses in the city govern- ment. This is the grand rallying point of the party. Here is their strong ground. Let it be occupied properly. The declaration of faith emitted at the great meeting in Vauxhall Gardens an excellent document. It might, perhaps, have been more effective if it had contained Jess about religious matters, and more about the immediate—pressing—absorbing— all important matter of municipal reform. But still, altogether, it is a good paper, and we let it pass with the seal of our approval—without a word of veto. On the whole, the new movement prospers, and has bright prespects ahead. We shall stick to it so long as it goes straight onward for municipal re- form. And we will give the same support to any other party, that sincerely and honestly labors, for the same great end. And if, after the election, and when the American Republicans shall have the reins of government, if they fail to fulfil their pro- is est of the orators of the party. He is about six or seven and twenty—of small stature and dark com-| plexion—~active, mercurial, and perfectly eaten up | with zeal for the success of the party. Mr. Whit- | ney has not had a great deal of experience in pub- | lic speaking, but he makes a very respectable at tempt—a little puerile occasionally perhaps, but his speeches are always very well received. He is always savagely patriotic, and thunders away at the Pope, Popery, Inshmen, and Bishop Hughes with such violence as elicits great applause.— Whitney isa great man among the Ninth Ward boys—President of the Young Men’s Club—Secre- tary at the meetings of the Association, and all that. Mr. Whitney, we need hardly add, however useful and valuable as an auxiliary agitator, is not at all qualified to lead or direct the movements of a great political party. Mr. Fenn is another of the popular orators of “Young America.” He is also a young man—pro- bably about thirty-two years of age, and has a fine, frank, intelligent, German-looking face. very excellent speaker—more accurate and neat in his style than Sammons, but not so loud and vio- lent. Mr. Fenn generally touches a little more on the abuses in the city government than his asso- ciates; but he does not gointo them deeply enough: Indeed, the great fault of all these speakers is, that they content themselves with vehement, vague and general denunciations of Popery and Irishmen, overlooking the numerous topics connected with the mal-administration of the city government, which furnish them with such ample material of eloquent and indignant animadversion. Mr. Fenn isa highly respectable mechanic, and is deser He is al mises, we shall be as active and efficient in visiting upon them the just punishment of their infidelity, dishonesty and falsehood, aswe have all along been in helping them in their honorable and upright ef- forts to free the city from the incubus of acorrupt, ‘lazy, bloated, worthless municipal government.— | And so endeth this epistle to the tribes of “ Young | America.” Tur Gas Company.—When will those citizens who complained of the exorbitant charges of the | Gas Company have a public meeting, and make a | representation to the Legislature? It is time to move. | | Iris Rerear.—We shall give a full view of the | real condition of thisquestion, both in Ireland and in the United States. The Repeal agitation is gross | delusion.

Important from Baltimore—Ol Bull’s Movements in the Musical World. We received by last night’6 express from Balti- more, highly important intelligence relative to the movements of Ole Bull in the musieal world there and south, in connection with Jew Schuberth, the gentleman who had the bond—held the bond hanging over his head, to the great annoyance of the artist. As this subject has been the principal topic of the saloons and drawing-rooms for several weeks past, and has almost agitated the country as much as the North Eastern boundary, or as the election of Mr. Clay, we have no doubt it will re- lieve the public very much to be in possession oi all the facts, in the most authentic shape, of the agreement between Mr. Schuberth and Ole Bull, and the future movements of that wonderful and extraordinary genius of the north. By this express we have reeeived the following very authentic documents, being copies of the original contract between Ole Bull and Mr. Schuberth, and also the depositions made by indi- viduals in relation to the transactions which have taken place between them :— Contract Between the Chevalier Ous: Bout, Vidlinit, of Norway, and Junius Scuvaxnty, Dealer in Music, of Hemburg. | The Chevalier Ole Bull and Mr. Julius Schuberth, have conelu- ¢ an artistical trip to America, and agree as fol- ie: $1. The departure from Hamburg to New York is to take place on the 20th October of the present Amsterdam and Liverpool. Their stay in America the present fixed until the end of April, 1844; however, a sooner or later return depends upon circumstances, that is to say, if the interest of both parties should require it. §2."Mr. Julius Schuberth pinds himself to arrange the concerts,and to attend to all the preparations for the same; if necessary to lead the same, and to take charge of the settlement of the receipts, which is always to take place immediately after the performance of every concert ; for this he is to receive from the Chevalier Ole Bull one third of the net receipts, and if the same should exceed in any concert 4000 francs or more, one quarter of the net re- Mr, Ole Bull undertakes and binds himselfto play in concerts as Mr, Julius Schuberth may arrange, and a respite is only to take place when the interest of both parties should demand it. 4.

State of New York, City and County of New York, ss: Christian F, Buhler, of the said city, Counseller at Ww, being duly sworn, doth depose and say, that on the nine- teenth day of December, one thousand eight hundred and forty-three, at the request of Mr. Julius Schuberth, at pre- sent ofthe city of New York, deponent called upon Mr. Ole B. Bull. ‘That deponent, after stating that he called on behalf of Mr. Schuberth, exhibited to said Ole B. Bull the orginal contract entered into between the said Bull and Schuberth, (a copy whereof is hereunto annexed,) and deponent thereupon asked the said Ole B. Bull, whether the same was the contract between the parties? To which the said Ole B. Bull replied that it was. Deponent then asked the said Ole B. Bull whether he, the said Bull, had not refused to comply with the terms of the said contract? To which the said Ole B. Bull replied, that he had not.’ Deponent then ask- ed the said Ole B. Bull whether he, the said Bull, had not refused, (or threatened to refuse,) to allow the said Schu- berth the proportion of net profits stipulated for in the said contract? To which the said Ole B. Bull ied, that he had not refused, or threatened to refuse, to allow the said Schuberth his full share of the poe as stipulated for in the said contract. Deponent then asked the said Ole B. Bull whether it was not true that he, the said Ole B. Bull, had informed the said Schuberth, that he, the said Bull, would allow the said Schuberth only the one-sixth part of the net profits? To which the said Ole B. Bull replied, that he had never mentioned any such thing; that he was satisfied with the said Schuberth, and had no complaint to make against him; and that he, the said Bull, was perfect- ly willing and desirous to abide by the terms of the said contract in all respects. The said Ole B. Bull further stated, that he scarcely conceived it possible that he, the said Bull, should be ask- ed the above questior she had never thrown out the slightest hint or intimation te render any such questions necessary. ‘The above conversation was, with the exception of a sentence ortwo in the commencement, conducted in the German language.

City and County of New York, I, Stephen Merrihew, of the city of New York, Notary Public, do hereby certify that I accompanied Mr. Buhler, and was present at the interview above testified to by him. The first question put to Mr. Ole B.Bull by Mr. Buhler was in the English language, and was, ‘Whether the contract in question was the actual contract between. the parties?” To which the said Ole B. Bull replied in the affirmative. ‘The residue ofthe conversation was in the German lan- guage, which I do not understand. STEPHEN MERRIHEW, Notary Public. New York, December 20, 1843. State of Maryland, City of Baltimore, to wit: I, Charles ¥. Mayer’ of said city of Baltimore, Counsel- lor'at Law, do hereby certify, that in my professional ca- ‘ity | was applied to by Mr. Julius Schuberth, to claim him from Mr. Ole B. Bull his (Mr. Schuberth’s) propor- tion,agreeablytot he annexed contracts,of the net proceeds of the concert given by Mr. Bull at the theatre in Balti- more, on the 21st December, 1843. On the day of this ap- I id company with Mr. Goctge Wilig, of upon Mr. Bull, in company with Mr. George 1 O' this city, and, after some general conversation, stated ‘the special object of my visitto him to be the claim of Mr. Schuberth under the contract, and the difference, in rela- tion to the contract, that then seemed tu subsist between them. I told him that the point in question was a very simple one, and was, whether he would pay the amount accruing to Mr. Schuberth as his proportion of the pro- ceeds ofthe concert alluded to. He did not agreeto pay the amount, nor conld I, by repeated mention of the de- mand, and representations to him of the expediency of an amicable adjustment, lead him to recognize the claim as valid, or asone that he would to any extent satisfy. He evaded, or at least failed to give, a direct answer to the de- mand, ‘and embarked in a long narrative of complaint against Mr. Schuberth, accusing him of having deranged instead of arranging his concerts, and indulged in much invective against him. I urged Mr. Bull to seize this op- portunity to come to some final and peaceable settlement with Mr. Schuberth that would end the contract on terms satisfactory to all parties. He was unwilling to accede to any plan, and would not entertain the idea of an adjust- ment of any kind with Mr. Schuberth. He said that he would have nothing further to do with Mr. Schuberth; and when then told that Mr. Schuberth desired to from him, if he ean him, and would not allow him to accom) ot im and act for him, he said that he (Schuberth) soon id go with him, and he would treat him so that he should feel worse than a dog, and that he would torture him. I proposed that a . pmongrenys of the bar, whom I named, and to whom I had heard he had a letter of introduction, should, on his part, meet me, and that we, the said counsel, should settle the difficulties between him and Mr. Schuberth. 1 urged this proposal, but he did not accede to it, nor intimate any favor or inclination toward it, “though he did not make any direct answer to it. [finally proposed tohim to think over the matter for the night, and to let me have another interview with him on it the next day, at ten o'clock in the morning; but he answered that he would be then at rehearsal, the next day, and suggested no appointment further with me, and ex- pressed no willingness z have any oeraee Then i e sul my business “ With me on the subject of my WORTARLES F. MAYER. Baltimore, 234 December, 1843. I certify, that being manager of the Baltimore theatre, and in that capacity having contracted with Mr. Bull for aconcert, to be given by him at the theatre, I met Mr. Bull on his arrival at Baltimore, on 21st December, 1843, on the night of which day Mr. Buil's concert was performed. Mr. Bull stated to me, at my first interview with him on his arrival, that he had difficulties with Mr. Schuberth in New York, and that he would thenceforth arrange his own business. Schuberth afterwards called at the theatre, and claimed to interpose, as agent of Mr. Bull, in reference to the settlement of all the accounts of the con- cert. In consequence of the notification I had received from Mr, Bull, | detlined allowing Mr. Sehuberth’s inter- vention in any part of the business between Mr. Bull and myself. PETER RICHINGS. jaltimore, 28d December, 1643. In elucidation of these papers, which are as valu- able as those inthe most important negotiation that ever took place in the world, we have a few facts to add. It appears that when Ole Bull left this city for Baltimore, as will appear by the above documents, Mr. Schuberth went at the same time, A difference had occurred, as will also appear by the above do- cuments, in this city between the two gentlemen, but it was measurably settled until the appearance of Ole Bull at Baltimore renewed it. Upon the first occasion, therefore, there, Mr. Ole Bull was determined at once to bring to a conclusion the con- nection between them ; and it will be seen that he has entirely refused to share any of the proceeds of his concerts with Mr. Schuberth,and by this means Mr. Schuberth has been compelled to return to this city and here waits events. We do not mean, in this matter, to enter into any legal or equitable examination of the contract between them. They can settle it in their own way. And if they cannot settle it peaceably out of court, Mr. Schuberth and Mr, Ole Bull can settle it by going into court, either in this country or in England, because we suppose a contract is a con- tract be it made where it may. In reference to this matter we will take this opportunity of saying that what we have heretofore said of Mr. Schuberth, was not in a feeling of any ill will or unkindness towards him, bat rather it sprung from a feeling of | respect for both parties. Tt appears that Ole Bull, one of the most roman- tie beings in the world, felt his genius affected by this bond; it irritated his mind, excited his feelings, and had no inconsiderable bad effect upon the tones of bond of which Shylock, the Jew, talks about, but in this case we,wish to state that Mr. Schuberth isno Hebrew, buta highl, ly. respectable German mu- sic seller. Therefore, if they agree according to the contraet, each one still possesses his own rights; and Mr. Bull, being now relieved from this weight upon his mind and shoulders, as he supposed, will go, with unexampled success,throughout the whole of the Union, ‘ free as the mountain air.” | We look upon this termination of the affair as the best that could possibly have taken place under the circumstances ; and whatever the result may be as to money matters, (for they can be settled by law) it will undoubtedly be favorable for the exhi- bition of the great genius of Ole Bull throughout his career south and back into this part of the country. In the mean time we perceive, already the effects of this termination, le Bull has given one concert in Baltimore in the Theatre ; but as the people of Baltimore are not theatre-going in their tastes, he has taken the Calvert Hall, where, inconnection with Mrs. Bailey, and various other musical persons in that city, he has announced a concert in the following terms :— HR rp Maat Barimone, Deo. 234, 1848. nxious to - fe Tespect Lg tion of the clifeens of Baltimore, I nee ier luded to ae aconcert on Tuesday evening next at Calvert Hall, at which time those persons who are scrnpulous against fre- quenting the theatre will have an opportunity of being present. I am induced to make this arrangement at the estion of my friends, and with a hope the wishes of this community, whose musical taste and femi- nine beauty are e proverbial Most respectfully, OLE BULL. So, it will appear from this, he is now like a ship under full sail with a steady breeze and plenty of searoom. His extraordinary genius will now have full play; but as a friend we advise him to. take care of the many Berces and sharks who will in- fest his path south. He must look as sharp after his money as his music; his notes of the different banks as well as the notes of his violin. ‘ With regard to Mr. Schuberth, we believe he is in this city waiting patiently the issue of events. We hear it said that he will probably return to Germany, or wait till he can find Ole Bull in Paris or Hamburgh, and there commence an action against him for breach of contract—or perhaps he uy remain in New York until Ole Bull returns, and here do the same thing. F ‘Well, we would advise both parties, now that they are separated, to refer the whole matter ami- cably to some friend, and have it settled peaceably as soon as possible. It is much the better way, than either to quarrel or bring their quarrel into the newspapers. Mr. Schuberth is a highly re- spectable man, and wants nothing but whatis right, and we do not believe that Ole Bull, when left to his own natural impul would do an unjust or in- equitable thing towards any person in the world. Sienor Caseita.—As Artot, Vieuxtemps, Wallace and Ole Bull rank on the violin,so it appears does this gifted young artist take the lead on the violoncello, not only over those who have preceded him, but in Italy, the land of music. His style is of the most modern or romantic school, aiming more at en- slaving the heart and feelings than astonishing the senses only by artistical display. As a proof of this, his Sovenir ‘des Genes is the most beautiful, touching and enchanting composition we have heard, and S.gnor Casella’s execution of it is suffi- cient to draw tears from the eyes. To shew the exceeding, high estimation he is held in abroad, we. copy the following from the Journal of Mont- pelier, in France. Having heard Signor Casella at the brilliant Concert given by him on Wednesday at the rooms of the Philhar- monic Society, we have no hestation in placing him amongst the small phalanx of those who have acquired the highest rank on the violoncello, This Tne artiste has ac- juired a skill on the violoncello which is rarely met with. ‘o him the difficulties have ceased to ve acles, and are now resources. He excels in all those points which are beyond the reach of the generality of players, with- ing clusive attention to that portion of the art wl e' itself more to the eye than to the ear. His highly finished and touching, style. of ‘playing sho that he has not abandoned the height of his art for the pu- pose of playing upon the curiosity of his hearers. Behold this fine young arti stesurrounded by abrilliant assemblage inthe midst of a profound silence ; his instrument is an organ which for a moment becomes a part of himself, He draws from it soft and Beolonged tones of the most delici- ous sweetness; he reveals to his listners all the mysterjps of musical delight—now impassioned, now sad, tender or impetuous, he completely enchains in the most intense ex- citement of musical enjoyment his listeners. His notes always pure ‘and exquisitely perfect, his playing s0 finished and beautiful, causes “his listeners to hang as it were in rapture on his impassioned accents, and awakens from the ought recesses of the heart, sensations of the purest delight. The pieces which Signor Casella will execute on Friday, at the Washington Hotel, display a happy taste. The aria and finale from the opera of Lu- cia di Lammermoor, are admirably adapted to his deep and melancholy style. The variations upon the romance Un Soupir, (a sigh) is delicately expres- sive of that most delightful sensation, and his splendid execution of it will, we doubt not, draw many a one from his fair auditors, as well as tears Un ula mia Patria is also descriptive of those sensations that strangers will always feel away from his country, and the Souvenir de Genesalrea- dy heard here is certainly the most delightful and beautiful morceau we have ever heard, and Signor Casella’s execution of it is of the most exciting kind. In this piece he revels as it were in the me- lodies that his surprising genius has conceived of expressing in music. In fact this surprising you artist has already placed himself at the head of all our violoncello players, and his extraordinary geni- us, emblamatical of the soft and impassioned style of Bellini, besides his very handsome face and fine symmetrical figure, will make him the rage of New York and all other cities. Vieuxremps at THE Park.—After eminent suc. cess in Boston, Vieuxtemps makes his appearance this evening at the Park Theatre. As we said yes- terday,let the real friends#fof music give him a warm reception. Destructive ConrLaGration at Port Ricu- monp—Two Lives Lost.—Intelligence reached the Herald office yesterday morning! of a most la- mentable catastrophe on Monday night in Gra- nite Village, about a mile and a half from Port Richmond, Staten Island, which resulted in the death of the wife and infant child of Capt. George Houseman. It appears that some incendiaries and robbers had formed a design to plunder the house whilst the festivities usual to Christmas day were being observed in the village ; and this design they put in execution in the course of the evening. The house was first rifled of all the money which could be found, and then, in consequence proba- bly of the resistance made by Mrs. Houseman, it was fired! The flames quickly raged with uncon- trollable fury, having acquired teo much power be- fore the alarm was made. We regret to add that both Mrs. Houseman and her child, four years of age, were consumed in the conflagration, their cries never having been once heard : their re- mains, completely reduced into ashes, were found yesterday morning. At present nothing has been heard of the incendiaries, nor can any specific ac- count be given of the value of the property stolen and destroyed. Capt. Houseman arrived at this port yesterday in command of the schooner Whig, when the heart-rending tidings were communica- ted. It is supposed that the wife and child were murdered by the robbers and the house afterwards fired, as but little was burned except in the imme- diate vicinity of their bodies. Jew Clo'men a Great Nuisance. Mr. Bennerr:—Among the various classes which have come in for their share of just, though severe censure, there is another class, though not equally censurable, deserve severe rebuke, and need reformation ; I mean the Jews who sell new and old clothing in Chatham street. I speak not of them out, of any prejudice on account of their place of birth or religion, but on account of their conduct, or rather misconduct, in front of their stores, onthe sidewalk. Neitherdo I censure every one of them, for there are some exceptions.— Generally, however, they are an impudent, imper- tinent, audacious set of fellows, They walk the pavement in front of their stores from morning till night, like a sentinel who ‘walks his lonely round,” but they do not cry “ all’s well,” for their actions partake too much of the opposite—all’s ill. They attack a large portion of those who are pass- ing by with the question “ Want to buy any clo’ ?” and if they find a ‘green ’un,” they entice him in- to their den, but whether they fleece him as do the mock auctioneers, this deponent saith not. They even carry their audacity to such a pitch as to take hold of people and try to force them in. And even females are not exempt from their impertinence.— They sometimes meet a “ sharp’an” and get a clip, but it does not Cie reformation. I would ad- vise those insolent fellows to keep inside their shops, as decent people do, and cease insulting any and every one who are passing; for, if they do not, they will raise the devil—such a devil, too, that will take more Jews than Chatham street can muster to allay him. Do they know any thing about a set of ig Bee who reside in the Vth and 17th Wards? If the Mayor and police can’t or won't Protect us, Judge Lynch will, so take Warntna.

Evérybody looked, as if everybody would have been condemned “a perpétuité,” to read Monsieur Greely’s Tribune, who has been ad- ding a fresh leaf to his wreath of laurel, by writing an article on Ole Bull, which we are certain would kill the stoutest shareholders of the “Sylvania” Association, provided they could manage to ‘swal- low it. But, lo! the clouds part,—a glorious burst of light sheds its rays over us,—hark, hark, the lark! No, it is not the lark, it is the nightingale,—it is the nightingale Castellan, who warbles forth her sweet notes; those notes, which could have outvied the melody of David’s Harp ;—those notes, which could have struck dumb the strings of Orpheus’ lyre. ‘The appearance of Madame Castellan was looked for with increased interest, since we have lately had the opportunity of admirmg Madame Damoreau’s finished, or better, ‘delicately chiseled” style of singing. Many of her ardent admirers dreaded a comparison between those two great ‘ reines de la scéne ;” it was the anguish of a fond mother for her darling child. But Castellan did not appear at all to be daunted by the tug of war, “ when Greek meets Greek”—she steppe forth with a bold modes- ty, her brilliant eye glanced quietly over the faces hushed in silent expectation, her powerful voice filled the vast hall,—its echo was deafening ap- plause—to us* a familiar quotation, “ veni, cantavi, vici.’” We do not mean to put Castellan over Damo- reau. Nay, we are certain, that Madame Castel- lan, (modest and great artist as she is,) would not thank us at all, were we. to do it. Madame Dam- oreau is a rare, a great singer; in her “ roles” she has no superior. Paris, ‘London and lately St. Pe- tersburgh have ratified it. ‘The grand Opera and Opera comique look like orphaned charity children, since she turned a deaf ear to the entreaties of Ver- non and Crosnier, and refused a renewal of her contract, She retired from the stage, esteemed and regretted by everybody. It was a blow which fell heaviest on Auber, the celebrated composer, with whose glory hername is inseparable. But Madame Damoreau is “ passée ;” zac would consider it twice, before he would receive her into his list of ‘la femme de trente ans.” Her voice is still sweet and regular, but not unfrequently veiled and some- times even husky. Whereas, on the contrary, Castellan’s is fresh, full of metal, clear as the lark’s, sweet as the nightingale’s, bounding over the en- chanted valley of harmony like a fiery colt. But enough; we must tighten the reigns of the hij griff, and give, as the German poet says—‘ the long story’s short meaning,” in a few words. Castellan, although;not above, is certainly not below Demo- reau. After a lively overture to Auber’s “‘Diamants,” which was performed with much spirit and preci- sion, Madame Castellan gave an air from Donizet- ti’s “Betly.” This opera is not known in Ameri- ca, which is not at all a matter of regret, Betly be- ing one of thisgifted composer’s weaker works, and could never boast of a favorable reception in Eu- rope. The air ‘*Se crudele il cor mostrai’”” ought to be very grateful to Madame Castellan for having been chosen and presented by her, in such an invi- tingshape. She sang it beautifull , as well as the “seena ed arta from Coppola’s Nina. Her energy in the deeper notes, and the impressive and dra- matical style tin the recitativo make us repeat the wish to hear her in a complete opera. _ In the second part, she delighted us in the splen- did duett “Non é ver,” from the second. act of Donizetti’s “Gemma di Vergy," which she sung with Signor Giampietro. We have heard it by Frezzolini and Schoberlechner, and must confess that Castellan surprised and astonished us. re- tition was loudly called for, and she could not but yield tc the wish of the audience. But, her reatest triumph was in the air ‘Casta diva,” from Norma, which she, the “diva,” sung divinely What melting tenderness in the andante—what elegance and taste in the roulades and fioreturé ot the allegro! Polygane would be a tyrant if he would not return to the enchanting strains of Cas- tellan’s ‘Ah ! bella, a me retorna ” ‘We have seldom witnessed a concert where all the pieces went off with so much éclat as in this. The overtures to Preciosa and Semiramide were very well executed by the orchestra of the Philhar- monic Society—the wind instruments appeared only to be a little out of tune. Mr. Rapetti played va- riations of his own composition. We prefer the player to the composer. We never liked mere “concert compositions”’—there is no music in them—nothing but running es, Whose mono- tony is relieved here by a shake, zhere by an arpe- gio. Mr. Rapetti’s composition is neither better nor worse than the rest of them, but we think it rather a scena cantante than a fantasia. As a play- er, he will always occupy a respectable place; his tone is clear and strong, and he possesses general- ly a pure intonation. But, Mr. Rapetti, are you aot wrong to put so many ornaments into’ the air? | % We always thought that a thema should be played as simple as ible. And was not the movement of the adagio a little too fast? i ‘The second piece, which sett ia ret played with Mr. Timm, was the duett which Vieuxtemps performed with his sister. Without drawing any parallel, we were extremely satisfied with Mr. Ra- petti’s execution, and he ought to be proud of the etined applause lavished upon him by the au- jience. So ended Madame Castellan’s last concert, but we hope it will not be her last appearance. We are going to have an Italian opera at the Park and at Palmo’s. Her place is marked in company with Sutton and Borghese. New York can well afford to pay them; and where could we find better ones? We are certain that Cuastellan will create a tenfold greater sensation on the stage than in the concert room. City Intelligence, Police.Tvrspay, Dec. 26.—The'store of Robert M.

Cuaruam Tueatre.—The greatest enthusiasm prevails here, among every gene connected, from the mi er down to the lowest member of the coi ‘y. It was a daring feat for Mr Stevens to undertake loon, and equally so with Mr. Williams and Miss Rallia to perform Clown and Columbine, in the new Pantomime; yet so successful were their efforts on Christmas night, that there was an unanimous call from the densely crowd- ed egy iA for a repetition of the eeennen ie in obedi- ence to this call the piece was announced for repetit last evening, and drew excellent house. the another evening will prove the test of the Chatham’s popularity ,as well as that of the two grand dramas, The Bohemians and Spy of St. Mares, of recent production, both of which will be put up in the same bill and performed at full length.— The interlude Le poromant consist of a hornpipe by Misses Rallia and Clemence ; Grotesque Pas by Mr, Chan. bers, and the exciting vageries un petite Diamond and Mr. Williams.

Washington. {Correspondence of the Herald.) Wasuineton, Dec. 25, 1843. Mx. Bewyerr:— Dear Sir :— _ This is still another dies non—Congress does not sit to-morrow. It is Christmas day, and, to a New Yorker, dull enough ; for the weather is overcast, and threatening to rain ; the streets are muddy, and even the fires within burn blue. But there is an oasis in the desert—and it is Ole Bull—the warm-hearted, the simple-minded, the enthusiastic child of nature. He is now altogether the lion of Washington, Bull though he be. As he did not arrive last evening, it was pretty certain that he would artive this morning in the 11 o’clock train from Baltimore. Four spacious and elegant rooms had been engaged for him and his suite at Fuller’s excellent hotel. And as the hour approach- ed, Mr. Fuller took acoach and drove to the car house. So modestly does Ole Bull travel, that se- veral on board the cars did not even know that he was their compagnon dw voyage, and told us that he had not come, We however at length found him, enthusiasm, simplicity, and all. At first, he could converse of nothing but his escape from ‘ Shylock,” who, it seems, now left him to return with 15,000 francs, which he has pocketed from Ole Bull’s playing since he has been in this country. ‘ Shylock” goes to Europe swearing ven- geance against Mr. Bull w! he shall return. Having secured one third of all the receipts of Ole Bull's playing, it would seem as if he ought to be satisfied. Ole Bull came very near being plundered as he le(t New York. He was put on his guard however by his friends, and escaped from the robbers and pickpockets who surrounded him. By the very great and highly commendable exertions of Mr. Emery,,the manager here, an excellent orches- tra has been got together under the direction of Sig. La Mama, They are now rehearsi at this resent writing. Mr. Emery has engaged Mrs. Bailey for this evening, who will sing four of her popular songs. ‘There is now every. prospect of a full house to-night, al- though great prejudice did exist among the members of the church st going to the theatre at all, and the more especially on Christmas night. But there isa fasci- nation, a magic charm in the name of Ole Bull, which has thawed even the icy prejudices of bigotry—and accord- ingly members of the church will to-night leap the fold ani at the theatre. ay 3 The leading feature of the town to-day was the public dinner given by Mr. Fuller in his superb style, chiefly in honor of Ole Bull, whose presence enlivened the compa- cahanted them. Among the gocay att’ dinfor able ym. Aun er table, at the head of which pres ir. Edward H. Fuller, were Ole Bull, (Robert Tyler, S. Humes Porter, the Hon Mo- ses G. Leonard, M. C. from New York city, the Hon. M. Kirkpatrick, 'M. C, from New Jersey, Colonel Craven, Baron Stockel, of the Russian Legation, Capt, Heitzell, U.S.A. Cay Alexander, U. 8. A, Capt. Reed, U. 8. A.) Dr. Martin, Dr. Jones, Postmaster, Messrs. Jackson, Ma. hon, Potts, R. Sutton, F. W. Thomas, Wolf, Sig. Martini, Perozzi, of the Italian opera, and several others. Some of the above named did not arrive till the cloth was removed. Wine, sou] and song flowed freely, enlivened by the sound of the violin and guitar. Passages from Norma, [ Puri- tani, and Belisari by. Sig, Martini, Perozzi, and Huertus ; ow,” accompanying it with the guitar, was sung by Mr. Mabon, as also Dan Tucker, Dandy Jim of Caroline, &c. An old German song was sung with much effect by J. Wolf, Esqure—a recitation from Shakspeare was given by (8. H. Por. ter, Esquire. But the promaing enthusiasm of the hour was an impromptu by Ole Bull upon the violin. The health of the it, Mr. Fuller, was ik with the most hearty, good wil, for no host could ever contribute more tothe happiness of his guests. It was in reality a merry Christmas dinner. genie In answer totwo or three questions which have been pot hundreds and thousands of times,1 would say that Ole ull is thirty-three years of age, and that his violin is not haying been made long before Cremonas were thought of, some 300 years old, and costing its present proprietor nearly $3,000, although he will not sell it for twice that sum. 8.
