Jenny Lind.

.
Much against my will. 1t has ego. into the pa
pers +" that am endeavoripg to engage the "Swed-
ish Nightingale for Amsricapiae Philadelphia Inqui
Of yesterday, and Ledger of this morning. 1t has
been stated that her agent is here and that have Of
fered her s5oooo for 200 nights &c. would have pre-
fered keeping this subject out of the public prints
the presents but since II is broached and is erroneous
in its most important particulars beg leave to cor
rect it.
LIST. Jenny Lind has sent no agent to America: but
have sent two to her, Of whom recently returned
from interview with her, and has gone to meet
her in Stockholm, with my proposals.
I'd AS regards terms understand aud believe that
Mr. Knowles manager Of the Manchester Theatre, who
engaged Jenny Lind to sing in the provincial towns of
Great Britain paid her e4oO sterling per night uu-
derstand, also that it was unusual thing for Mr.
Lumley Director Of the Queens Opera in London to
receive cisco to $1,000 sterling Jenny's nights 1t
is absurd therefore to suppose that could expect to
engage her ECO nights for $4,000 $3.50 per night
Now the truth Is, haze offered her than four
times that per night besides paying the expenses
from Stockholm and during her engagement of herself
and companion. fnsncer (probaby her father), and
two servants besides placing carriage always at her
disposal and paying every description Of expense at
tending the concerts operas in whiah she may sipg
and have offered to place 600 sterling in the hands
Of her banker in London the fuldlent of nv
proposition, am by 10 certain Of her coming,
even at the offer made but if any gentleman supposes
there is CANNON in this business and that less COM
pensaien would induce her to visit America hereby
plet my honor to sign bonds to any amount when
ever called upon to give $50 for every 500
Per night that lie will obtain her services for me less
than $1,000 per night besides all the expenses before
named. Truly, yours

tail, legs or brlstles, of the animal 1t is such
confused cutting up and mixing in of odds and
ends, as to defy all attempts to make it out. New
York politics and politicians are more mystery
than ever. The only thing positively certain
about which there can be no mistake-is, that
oysters and whitewash hold the balance of power,
and that these and the coored aristocracy-
wings to the backbone-have decided the cleo
ton. Downing is master of the field. Let Down
ing. therefore, under the title of Prince Of Shrews-
bury-the great locale of oysters-be forthwith
appointed by Mr.. Clayton on foreign mission TO
Fausn l., Emperor of St. Domingo. Mr.. Webb,
for his services can take some other high mission
But is it not possible to extract something out Of
the result, for the comfort OF the cabinet! We
have tried it again and again; butit is past our
power of analysis. From sixty to one hundred
thousand legal voters-free white men, the great
majority men of business-have probably abstalned
from voting on either side. The organs of the
cabinet have appealed to them to sustain the wing
party, in order to vindlcate the present wing cabi
net who have violated the inaugural of Gen. Tay-
lor. But these sixty one hundred thousand vo-
tiers deaf to all appeals, and remained at their
fire.sides, indifferent and unmoved. They had no
sympathy with the cabinet Its prescriptions, or its
diplomacy. They felt that neither General Tay-
ior's personal nor political character was involved
in the issue, and they staid at home, leaving the
white wings and black to fight it out among them
selves.
But whatever may be the want Of respect thus ex-
hlbled to the cabinet, it Is evident that the public
confidence in General Taylor is undlminished, and
that he maintains the same popularity which. a
year ago, elected him President of the United
States. 1t is equally certain that this confidence
has been withheld from the cabinet for their vio-
laton of his pledges, their shameless ncpousm,
their bad appointments, and the imbecllity and
empty fuss which have marked their foreign
policy for the last SIX months Don't forget Down
lns's famous oyster saloons and cears-No. 5
Broad street. and No. $50 Broadway.

EonE BANK ExPLosIoNs.-We fiEd, IN a New
Jersey Journal, republished elsewhere in our CO.
lumns, an account Of another bank explosion
1t is the Morris Bank of New Jersey, and the
account has been furnished to one of the journals
Of that State, by Mr.. Norton, the President
In this account, supplied by Norton, 1t would seem
he processes to have been sort OF dupe to the
rest Of the corps Of swindlers engaged in these
extensive operations to cheat and humbug the
community. But the truth is, the whole batch
OF hnancieTs, from top to bottom, connected with
the Morris Bank, the Susquehanna Bank, the Pro.
lection Insurance Company, and we know not
what other concerns, are all people of the same de-
scription, and entitled to the same share IN the
financial glory Of the explosion. This Norton,
who lets the cat out Of the bag about the Morris
State Bank, is the father Of the same Norton who
has been indicted for some most atrocious libcls,
and therefore, in certain respects, both father aud
son are congenIal with each other, and show UNI
doubted evidence Of being OF the came stock.
We suspect that the country will be astouuded
by more explosions in otherquarters. The security
bank system Of New York is perfect bar to all
these financers of the cid school. But New Jer.
sey, pennsylvania, and out West and South, yet
present fine hunting ground for the specializing
gamblers Of Wall street. TO realize game and guj
geons. Read the money article to-day.

The FOREIGN News AND THE TELEaRAPH.-The
Chariesto~ Mercury, Of the 9th inst, contains the
following paragraph -
"TuE TELyeRArH- readers will perceive that
the tegrsphc OF the Liverpool cotton market
which publish this morning, varies widely from that
published yesterday and the discrepancy gsrng
smot to preclude the possibility of its being the result
Of mistake accident Without attempting to locate
the blame deem II highly incumbent on the ope-
connected with the several lines at the North to
lend their aid In ferretng out the parties who have
thus attempted to deceive and aefraud the public"
The cotton market report referred to In the above
is the annexed -
"LIvrRrooL CorroS MAnkEr-Cotton continues In .
very excited state aud the excitement rather increased
by the news from New YORK, ressvsd 6y the hiosrna
made public which caused a subdued feeling In the
market On Friday slight decline was established in
prices, the sales being less than the previous day"
This is a true report, and the facts stated are
confirmed by the latter accounts. We can, how
ever, explain the apparent discrepancy spoken Of
by the Mercury.
On Saturday afternoon, between three and five
O'Clock, the Liverpool cotton market report, as far
as the words 'previous day" came over the wires
from Sackville, and then stopped. On being in
formed that the Southern telegraph offices south
Of Washington would close at nine or ten o'clock
that Aeht, and would not open again TIL Monday
morning, the above portion Of the cotton market
was despatched over the wires South, and word
sent along the Eastern line to get the remainder of
1t through TO New York in time to send it of before
the Southern Offices closed, and thus to place the
South in possession of the market news twenty
four hours earlier than they could receive it in any
other way. The effort TO obtain, in time, the con-
GLIDING part of the report, unfortunately failed, and
the South received the meagre account which the
Noewy published on Monday. The full report they
received in time to publish on Tuesday, thus show
ing, that had we succeeded IN despatching The
whole on Saturday night, they would have given il
on Monday, instead of Tuesday.
This is the whole story.
