Jenny Lind bas sung in Castle Garden to an audience of five thou- send persons, and they have confirmed the opinions we had expressed upon her matchless powers of song. They have pronounced upon her merits | not to be mistaken ; end the i erities who ven- tured to disparage her in some particulars, must look very silly by this time, even in their owm estimation. Never did @ mortal in this city, or perhaps in any other, receive such homage as the sovereign of song received trom the sovereign people, om this memorable ccomion. We say from the sovereign people ; for it was not the aristocracy who wi here: it was the middie classes—the mechanics and the storekeepers, with their wives and daughters and sistors, presenting an array of dazsiing beauty, in which the upper ten were lost as drop of water inthe ocean. In theold country, nope but royalty and the aristocracy could afford to pay such prices, e' for one night, to hearthe Nightingale sing. Here, the majesty of the people were Prevent, and presented such s spectacle as we have mever seen before, From the ceiling to the stage it all around were filled with these who were fortunate enough to obtain promenade tickets. Yet was there no confusion; for Ty seat was not only numbered, but the color of the paper on which the number was printed was the seme as the color of the ticket. The middle section of the house was yellow, the left red, blue, At esoh section lamps were hung, olor as the seetion, whether in the bal- copy or parquette, Ushers were also stationed in dif- forent perti ot the house with wands and rosettes of ribbons of the three different colors, indicating the portion of the house where they were ready to oon- duct the tioket holder. Im addition to all this, at the entrance toeach tier of seats were painted on the floor the bers they contained, 80 that no person need bave any treuble in finding out hisowm place Thus there was seat for rybody, and everybody had a seat corresponding with the number of his ticket. ‘The seat of Mr. Genin, the hatter, was a very hand- come epring cushion crimson velvet ebair placed right ogsinet the front of the centre post, and just opposite toJenny Lind. It was marked A 1, and Genin was firet among the foremost, and no mistake. Bvery eye ‘was upon the $225 seat. Opposite the stage and over the balcony, was the following inscription upon a white ground, bordered with green, and ornamented with flowers: —‘ Weloome, Bweet Warbler.” The building was beautifully lighted with magnificent chandeliers. To facilitate egress, a large door was opened in tho tear of the building. To secure order and prevent confusion, as well as imposition, there wore three doorkeepers to be passed before you obtained admission to the temple of song, which Jenny Lind was to con- secrate by her divi «lody. From the outer gate to the Castle, the bridge was covered with a graod awning, at anexpense of $1,000. At the gates of the Battery, police officers were stationed to pel the drivers of hack: id carriages to enter by one gate and return by apether The police were in attendance im large force, all around the Garden, and did their duty admirably. It was rumored that there was to be ao attack made by the unterrified, in boats, on the rear, and that eas effectually gue-ded against by a force stationed there by Mr. Matsell, the chief of police. ‘The rumor turned out to be well founded. The soene was truly surprising. The river was completely covered with boste, filled with the hardest kind of looking customers.

Bhe said she would not takethe money of the rich, who paid such high pricestohear her. She preferred the money of the people who would eome to hear hor when the prices became lower. Im this, Mademoiselle Lind is she would have very poor attendance indeed. It is emphatically the people who wemt to hear her at her fi the high prices they paid for the enjoyment— prices entirely unprecedented in thi, country—are so many evidences of the admiration, respeot, and love with which they regard this singular and glorious women. With all herhigh intellectual and moral qualities—with all ber'transeendent execution — she is.in the unaffected simplicity of her manners, like « obild, and apparently as unconscious of the ty power she exercises over the human mind as if she did not possess it at all. Her first appearance,therefore, in Castle Garden, was a triumph euch as was never wit- nessed on this continent before. At 8 o’clook Signor Benediet took his post as loader of the orchestra, with baton in hand, and was well re- ceived by the audie: The eoncert then opened with the overture anno: in the programme, whi: was performed very creditably, and elicited much ap- plause from the audience.

The epprobution of the audionce was manifested inthe most decisive menner at the close He was very warmly applauded. His style of singing and execution, are faultless. It is very hard, indeed, te find such a barrytone as Belletti. But now the great object of attraction made her ap- tions had been formed Bhe trembied from head fo foot, turned deadly pale, and the drops ot perspiration ram down her face like rain. She bad been dejected all ing, lest she should not come up to her own high standard of surpassing e: cellence; but when she actually came before th a her heart sunk within her, nor did the bi rieane of applause with which she was greeted, suff- ciently restore her tranquillity im time to permit her to sing the “ Casta Dive,” jas she sung it at the two rehearsals, When she made hei nee on the stage, there was ® universal burst of cheering which lasted reveral mimutes, the sudience all rising, and waving their bats ond bandkor- chiefs, and casting @ shower of bouquets at her feet. After the Gret tumult subsided, and she came forward to her position to sing, was welcomed with another tremendous burst of jasm. She looked well, end was very chastely dressed. In the first part of the “ Casts Diva,” a6 we have already said, she faltered, evidently from the excitement under which she amche proceeded, ber self-porsossion re- sound of her voice seeming to aot In the concluding line of the ® most angelio whisper, swell that electrified the house.
