JENNY LIND IN NEW YORK.

Two colums of the New York Herald are occu.
pied with "the enthusiasm" of that city on the
arrival OF Jenny Lind. Immense numbers vert
to Staten Island, thinking Jenny was to land
there; Barnum met her "down the Bay" when
cordial sauations were exchanged. On see
ing the American flag she paid it homage by
kissing her hand 10 it with all the fervor of
child, and exclaiming, "There is the beautiful
standard of freedom, which is worshipet by the
oppressed of all nations" Shortly after, she
saw the Swc cedish flag flying from the mast
head of vessel in the quarantine, and her eye
kindling with rapture on beholding the emblem
of her native land, she asked how long the ship
had been detained there, and on being informed
by DR.. Dane, the Health Officer, that the de-
tenton was thirty-Ave days, she expressed her
regret at this delay. This momentary feeling
was soon lost in the boundless delight with
which she garded the expanse of water that
lay before her in our glorious bay-she literally
feasted her eye upon it with admiration. She
said it was tie most magnificent sight she had
ever beheld.
Mr.. arrum-Except the Bay of Naples.
Jenny I.ind-Not excepting even that
She appeared, in fact, delighted with every
thing she saw. On nearing the wharf, she ex-
pressed her astonishment at seeing so many
persons, respectfully dressed-such a crowd as
she had never seen on the docks of the old
country, She inquired, "Why, Mr.. Barnum,
have you no poorer people in this country P
Everybody appears to be well dressed"
The gateway at the dock was guarded by po-
lice; thousands and thousands were gathered
about the docks in the vicinity of the Atlantic's
berth, with every eye stationed to see Jenny.
From the gate half way up the dock, beau
tiful arcade had been erected, consisting of a
double row of pillars, festooned with evergreens
aud flowers, and covered overhead with the flags
of the Union. The front next the ship had
triumphal arch of the same materials, surmount-
ed with stuffed eagle, with bouquet of fowrs
in his beak, as if presenting them to the guest
of the United States. In front was the nscrip-
ton, in large letters upon white ground--"To
the Nightingale" eJenny Lind, welcome to A
merica," Here Mr.. Barnum's private carriage
was drawn up, and from this to the gateway o.
the ship was extended carpet for her to wall
on.
Capt, West, commanding the Atlantic, ap
peaEed, with Jenny Lind leaning on his arm
