Der Sgnora Riscsceianti met with an eathusas-
tic welcome in Mobile. We copy from the Herald
Of Friday the following notice of her concert on
Thursday evening. twill be observed that she
has been induced to give another, which was to
take place on Saturday night.
The Concert--A dollar is a considerable sum
now-a.daYs, and TO many people it is altogether ira
dional whether the coin is round or square, or is
larger or smaller than a eart-wheel. The thing,
therefore, is valuable; but value it as one may,
dozen of it We're not worth the insubstantal notes
which Sgnora Biscaccianti uttered so profusely at
the concert on Thursday night. There was no
counterfeit uttering in any wise from that mint
OF all that is delicate, sweet and melodious. In
power, execution, and most exquisite taste, we
recollect nothing which even one might think to
add, If he were Prometheus himself, and could
make voices at his will The room was completely
filled up with melody-such as imaginary birds are
supposed to make in poets paradise. The lady,
too, has graciousness and sweetness of manner
which quite won the good breeding of the audi
ence when she returned so sweetly to the encore,
giving us thereby two touching pieces of English
poetry and music more than was bargained for in
the BILL 1t were difficult TO say what part of the
music was best, but the last piece, from Sonnam-
bula, was quite perleet-the more perhaps, because
the fair vocalist was getting quite as much inte-
rested as her audience. The Napolitaine too, is a
most delicious little bit of genuine heart-musc.
The other performers were hardly less perfect.
Slgnor Bscaccianti is rare artistic on the vlolon-
cello. ln ease, grace, and delicacy of execution,
one would suppose it were impossible to excel him;
and Mr. Key presided at the piano with extremely
good taste and skill.
Alter saying much, we have no doubt it will
be delight to our readers to know that one more
concert is TO be given tonight. 1t will be positively
the last, we are told.

THE NICARAGUA SETTLEMENT.-The Eastern
papers profess to have discovered OF the closest
secrets of the diplomacy of Mr.. Clayton. How
they get at such intelligence, it is past our skill to
find OUTPUT papers of all sides to agree that
there is really something in the reported agreement
between Mr.. Clayton and Mr.. Bulwer, in regard
to the Nicaragua and Honduras difficulties. 1t is
alleged that there is mutual withdrawal of all
assertions of doctrine right--a general oblivion
of all that has been said and done-and the two
Governments constitute themselves the protecting
powers of the canal across the Misunderstanding
that it shall be kept free for all nations and neutral
in time of war to the extent of two marine leagues
in all directions. If this be true, Nicaragua has
gained her point in regard to her sovereign rights,
and the Mosquito King has sunk back again into
pauper savage.
