It appears from all accounts that the genius OF
Ole Bull, having first captivated the people of the
NORTH and "won golden opinions from all sorts of
men" there, is pursuing the same process in the
south. On Friday, the 9Th of January, he gave a
concert before distinguished and crowded audito-
ry at Charleston, from whom his ethereal strains
elected unbounded admiration. We cannot, how.
ever, better describe the impression which he pro-
duced than by quoting the following graphic
critigue from one of the papers published in that
city -
Ole Bull appeared last evening at the theatre to
and enraptured audience is difficult to con
vey the impression which his wonderful execution pro
duced He appeared not merely as the accomplish
ed artist acquainted with the resources OF his art the in
ricaces of harmony and the powers of his instrument
but truly the inspired musicanas who felt in the
OF his mind all that capable Of embodiment
in music to the poetry OF sound, put into ac
ton The performances of finished artistica skill are al
Of every day but it is rarely that the in
nct OF genius adds expression to the elaboration oil art
and when the combination presents itself as in the case
Ole Bull the mind realizes all that the imagination can
picture to itself luxury Of sound II is 10 be regret

us until all classes OF our citizens who appreciate the
that belong to in its most inspired mood and character
The HERREN ARNoLD-the German Quartetto
are now at Savannah, Geo, giving concerts at the
Theatre, with unbounded success. They created
an extraordinary musical excitement during theii
stay at Charleston, and drew together 1000 persons
the largest musical concourse ever known in thai
city-at their Musical Soiree for the benefit OF the
Temperance Society On the same evening Ma
dame Chit Damoreau andMons. Artot,gave agrand

pieces, and met with most glorious reception.

DRAR Sm:-
have arrived at this place, and ha, ascertained
that the examination will not take place until to-
morrow. A strange feeling has possessed the
Islanders in behalf OF the 'Herald in consequence
of the remarks made in your columns in regard 10
the individuals who endeavored to palm on you
the pretended confessions of Polly Bodlne, which
are totally false being fabricated for the purpose OF
extorting money from the New York press. She
has this day denied TO her counsel, r. n. Morrison,
Esq, of New York. that she has ever made such
confession as that published She declares that
the report other setting fire to the premises in Spring
street for Waite is false in every particular, and
that she never gave utterance TO any thing of the
kind-that the whole is a fabrication, and was
got up for some pecuuiary purpose by some inha-
bitants OF this vicinity. She has only been en-
ciente by him once, the result of which was
the still-born infant. Any future reputed con-
LESSONS that may be published by the same
paper that made public the false story on Monday
should not be believed, as her counsel has advised
her to keep still, and answer no questions or have
any conversation with any one. Alter returning

exhibited to the curious at Barnum's American
Museum
