Castle Garden will undergo many ruaters

on the ground ye,terdey to lnake their calculations
for the work. The space nov occupied by the

which will act Is sounding board. The stage
will be extended out over the orchestra, and the
singers will stand on the forward part, In full view
from all parts of the houae while the orchestra
will be stationed in the rear. The floor will be
fitted up with new seats, all of them numbered, as
well as the aeata in the gallery. Che sea entrance

not remedy many of the defects of the Hall, as it
stands at present. 1t was preferred by Mdlle L ind

While in England Mdle. Lind sang in the Corn
Hail. at Manchester, which is nearly double the
size of Castle Garden. The permission of the
Mayor will be necessary to allow her carriage
trance within the Battery grounds, butwe presume
there will be no objection to this, since it would be
almost, impossible for her to make her way through
sixty picked performers, under the leadership of

The neghborhood of the Irving House pre-
septed an animated scene yesterday. The ma.
tiona banner of Sweden and Norway was floating
from the fla sta; the streets, brig and clean from
Mondays Washing were constantly thronged with
a curious crowd, gathered into knots and groups
under the awnings, or opposite to those parts Of
the building whore they supposed the Nightingale
might be Reen. Many remained on the ground
several hours. We have no doubt the time spent
each day in his manner by some of the individuals
would yield them the price OF q ticket and much
more satisfactory blight Of the singer If employedn
some useful occupation Some Of them were gra-
tilted, however, for Mdle. Lind rode out during the
day for the purpose Of selecting residence in the
upper part of the City, as the observation TO which
abe ID ut present subjected begns to be irkaome.
She mngles daily for an hour or two with the ladies
in their parlor. Yesterday abe dined with Capt
West, who was her guest at the table d'h6te. The
sight OF four or FIVE hundred persons dining together
in splendid hall like that Of the Irving was some

nation bolts its dinners did not escape their obser

Invitations, waits and gifts OF all kinds are
shovyered puon Mdlle Lind TO an embarrassing de.
grse. If she employs but one secretary, the poor
man must have terrible time oft to acknowledge
all the bouquets, hats, gloves handkerchiefs, &c.
which she re ceivea. Passing through the Irving

paro., accompanied by Mr.. Tripera compliments.
Immediately afserward came an AMBASSADOR from
Genin, beating plumed ding hat of exquisite
shape, gloves and whip, to lay at her feet Beebe
& Co have Alao made her magnificent hat. and
we suppose Knox, Leary, &c. &c. will do like
wiae.
Among the invitations received by Mdle. Lind
was one from the Institution of the Blind. which
she at once sgniiied her intention of Visiting and
singing for the qualification OF the pupils Bishop
Hughes, we understand, intends paying his re-
spec,s TO her in tue course of the day.
Mr.. Rarnum las ordered splendid service of
plate to be made as gift to Mr. Wilton, who hea
acted us his agent in Europe, having been engaged
since last Winter in concentrating the agreement,
and arranging all tho particulars Of Mdile Lind'a
