so enthusiastic a sensation, and the kindness of her heart has
left so deep an impression, without assuring her of their best
wishes for her health and prosperity during her sojourn in a
distant land. Disappointed as they were that circumstances

deprived them of her assistance at the opening of the
hall, they feel much gratified that it has at length been graced
by her presence ; and they cannot but think that it will be an
agreeable reminiscence to Mad'lle Lind, while floating on the

The address was neatly written on vellum, in German
text, by Mr. Hornby, the heading being ornamented with
the arms of Liverpool and Sweden, beautifully illu-
minated in the style of the old monkish chronicles. In

the ornamental work surrounding the arms of Sweden,
were grouped nightingales in full song. As a specimen of
caligraphy, it was worthy of the highest praise. Mr.
