Lind.iana.

In the Jenny Lind Prize Song, as printed and
sung, the first verse was omitted by the musical
composer, for the sake of brerity. This verse is
given below:
'Tis said that in silence the heart must reveal,
WHAT the ialte,ing lip to It's pleading denies,
When the warmth OF its heating may not conceal,
And grateful emotion is soft in the eyes.
But silence itself, in the region of song,
Is music made swecter and purer in tone,
And the minstrel whose hopes that region belong
Must feel in its beautiful language alone.
D-Jenny Lind has got herself into business Her
muni6cence in giving the total OF her first nights
ings (more than $40 000) charitable objects, has
the whole tribe of beggars after her. great and small
hgh and low Young men and madens, bond and free.
We learn from good authority that she receives
average hundred and lceaty ieters day, soliciting
share of her liberality.
GTThe proprietors of every steamboat and railway
line between New York and Boston, have placed their
respective modes of conveyance to the latter city, at the
disposal of Mademoselle Jenny Lind and her suite
This graceful compliment may suffice to mark the
sation which has ecn excited by this accomplished ar
tist.
D-Jenny Lind will sing at the Front street Theatre
in Baltimore on the 27th and 30th of the present
month.
EPIGRAM.-The following epigram upon the sale o
the first ticket for Jenny Linds concert to Mr.. Genin

Fair Jenny came the sea

Public Sentiment.

The Auditor of State is likely to lose more than
he will gain by conienIing strenaously for the
Convention printing, by virtue of his purchase, with
money, of the Office of State Printer. The Ameri-
can Eagle says:
The Statesman contends that the printer the legs-
lature is entitled to the work, and the Convention has
authority to elect printer. Last winter the Legs
lature elected Chapmans of the Sentinel State printers
Since that time, they have sold the Sentinel Mr..
Brown, and their contract of State printer, TO Ellis
Spann, OF the Statesman This is the WHY the
Statesman contends for such absurd doctrine. Ii the

New York Railroads.

We permitted TO make extract from let
Ter 10 friend here, written by of our citizens
now East, after having passed over one of the New
York Railroads. "The fact is, we passed more
than forty places worse than the Madison Hill, and
at rate of from thirty TO forty miles to the hour.
Through the Allegheny mountains over one hundred
miles, did not mile of straight line, it was
one curve after another, and the road cut out of the
solid rocks and many times from fifty TO one hun
dred feet to the rocks, water, trees below nearly
perpendicular; then would pass embankmentS
100 feet high upon short curves at furious rate,
enough TO start the nerves of any person. How
did wish the whole of your board were along, you
would go home and think it nothing but child's play
to finish the Belefontaine road in year less"
What contrast the above presents, to railroads
constructed over level country, both to grade
and costs of construction.

WASHINGTON Cray, Sept. l9, 1850.
The bill abolishng the slave trade in the District
OF Columbia has passed both houses, received the
sanction of the President, and is now law. By its
provisions slave can be brought into the Distric

ton of the law become free. There are now only
about six hundred slaves in population of forty
thousand and under this law the institution will soon
become extinct But the abolitionists determin-

ent slaves set free by act of Congress.
Originally the District was ten miles square, lying
each side of the Potomac, and was ceded by
Virginia and Maryland to the United States. All
that part lying on the west side of the river has been
retroceded to Virginia, and there is scarcely
six miles square left. Georgetown has remained in

improving rapidly but there is country to feed it.

The Senate is acting on the general appropri-
