The Castle Garden has been taken by Barnum. Jsnny
Lind and the artists whs accompany her, having ex-
pressed their satisfaction with It, particularly ISIS
Lind Who though she has pecanisry interest In the
receipts desires rs large place possible In order
that the tickets may be low and that ell may have an
opportunity of hearing her 1t can be made to accom-
modate about 5000 persons The first concert will be
given on Wednesday evening" and another on Friday
evening Great improvements will BE- meantime, made
in the building. The curtain will be replaced by
sounding board and the stage brought forward two or
three feet and cspscious mode Of egress is to
be opened in the to take away the the
front passage The band is to consist of sixty first
rate musicians.
1t is expected that the Mayor will permit carriages
enter the Battery, the occasions OF the agri
cultural shows.
The tickets to be sold by auction, on Saturday
next-the place will be duly announced hareaftsr.-
All the tickets not disposed Of by auction on that day,
will be sold at So each, Those sold by auction will be
for the choice seats, and, no doubt, will bring high
prices. Mr. Barnum has received numerous applica-
tons for tickets by private sae and enormous prices
offered, but he has determined not to accept any
private Offer sale by auction being the farest to the
public.
1t will be well for all persons who wish to hear the
Nightingale (and who does not y to secure ticket
while she sings in Castle the capacity Of which
is more than double that Of the new hall now
in course Of erectionthe chances Of hearing her for
SO in the Castle Garden being as two to one II the
house Is always kept filed Of course the entire one
hundred and fifty concerts will be given in New York;
and Jenny Lind has determined that she will remain
long here that every person may hear her for the
minimum price.
Mr. Barnum has received an offer Of 5000 to give .
concert in Toronto. And he has received letters
ala frnpn ND frnp thsr
cities Of the South and West urging upon
him to favor them with concerts but It 10
quite evident that 1t will be Mr. Bsrnum's policy to
continue the concerts In New fork long the house
continues to be filed at SO per ticket inssmuch
as No building BE- found in any of those cities
sufficiently large to pay well the Castle Garden
at that price though the tickets should be all sold ct
$40 each.
The excitement about the Swedish Nightingale still
continues as strong and yesterday the street
in front OF the Irving House crowded, just
the two preceding days with pers xous to catch
glimpse Of the queen Of song. Even to late hour
last evening the crowd did not dispense.
In the she received presents of bou
quets OF flowers and other elegant tokens Of and
esteem she felt overwhelmed with gratitude for these
attentions and seemed quite distressed when she
informed that the persons who brought the presents
1t was offered to them. She said, what do to
express my gratitude for such Kindness, She asked
to the persons who brought the articles and upon
being informed that they had gone she insisted that
presents should be received again unless she
those who conveyed them, she wished at least to
thank them.
Mademoiselle Lind received an invitation yesterday
from the Blind Asylum to visit its inmates. She not
only consented to do but intimated her intention
to sing for the pleasure Of those afflicted with depr
walton Of sight.
In the afternoon she rode out in . carriage with
Mr.. Jules Benedict. We have heard that her object
was to find some place retired than the Irving
House, to stay at during her sojourn in New York
She is of very retiring disposition, and desires as
much quiet as possible She visited the New York
Hotel with that view and II Is understood she will put
up there In day two. While she finds IL desirable
to take this step she lie greatly pleased with the attsn
tion Of MI. Howard and with his magnificent hotel.
After returning from her drive she dined at the pub
lie table, at hall past three o'clock having invited
Mr.. Barnum, and Captain West, OF the Atlantic, to
dine with her. she delighted with the arrange.
ments aud with the company and 1t is needless say
that they delighted with her 1.-The observed of all
observers"
We learn that Mr. Barnum Is about to present to
MI wilton, the agent who engaged Jenny Lind, SER
vice Of plate. 1t may be at Tenney's In Broad
way.
