HAVANA.
Jenny INSTRUMENTATION, &c.
Correspondence OF The Tribune.

HAVANA, Tuesday, Jan l.
Messrs Greedy 4 MeE7Tah;
We have here but one theme for all circles,
and Jenny Lind is the burden, therefore 1 may
be excused following the bent Of inclination and
the popular social voice.
That this charming vocalist should be greetedby
Kisses from two or three foul breahs is not strange,
perhaps, when we take into consideration the
long purposed hostility Of those who hired the de-
graded oafers for that object nor was it strange
the rebuke administered by the Plaudits that
filed the vault OF our drama-temple.
The political feature of the reception has been
of favor the part OF the creole population, while
the opposing sentiment has been drawn entirely
from the resident Spanish. Last night, being the
last night and benefit for such charity as might
be selected by Miss Lind the house was Jam,
and not serpent hiss was there to ming lie with
over six thousand approving voices
AS for Mr. Barnum, the great Spectator upon
the infirmites of human nature, he has m ade
mistake in this market for his goods. Although
Havana is all gold, and golden opinions may be
had for the asking, yet we are peculiar peo-
ple" set apart from the rest OF the world. Had
Mr.. Barnum placed his figures for entrances and
seats at the opera rates. twenty or thirty nights
he would have sacked near 100000.
The Philadelphia left for New. Orleans today
the Pacific, it is said will go to Chagres in the
morning the Georgia has the same destination
the day following, and the Falcon, not yet arrived
will go to New York. Freights coastwise are
beginning to be taken at fair prices and business is
putting on the working dress for the season. The
papers incosed will give you the movement of
our shipping foreign and domestic, and shall
probably have no more occasion to talk OF Jenny
Lind. Q. U. o.

DEATH OF MR.. POINSETT.

News reached here Yesterday of the death OF Hon.
joel r. POnsett, at Sta:esburg, on Friday last He
was is the 73d yea. Of his age Mr. Poinset had been
very feeble for years. from the gradual creeping
on OF that decay OF the lungs which finally the
cause of his death.
Few OF the public men OF this country exhibit life
so checkered with shifting scenes, stirring adventures
and varied positions Mr. Ponsett. In early lie he
sssd some yeara ia raversing many countries OF Eu
rope, and finally penetrated far iuto the interior OF
Asia, at time when such adventure was much
more perilous and romantic than it is now. Suisse
quently he took leading part in settling the diplo-
matte relations OF the United States with the new re-
publics OF South America and with Mexico.
On the election of Mr.. Van Buren, 10 the Presden-
cy, ne appointed Secretary of War; in which Of
nee ne continued until the close Of that Adminlstra
tlon Here he was principally distinguished for in
Producing the Flying Artillery into the Army and Tor
deylsng scheme for embodying and training the
Militia, which IN military point OF view always
regarded as very sagacleus measure, but which not
only was not adopted, but was made of the most
ton, and with much effect, that Mr.. Van Buren, in
his fright took the first convenient opportunity of dis
owning and denouncing it.
Since that time he has lived in retirement, though
occasionally TAX ing part, through the PRESS the dis
cusslon OF Leading public questions.
The natural turn of Mr. Poinsets temper seems to
have been military life. He had great chivary of
character, love of hazardous adventure, and extra
ordinary GOODNESS and resources in trying emergen-
cy. In the Army, cannot doubt, he would have
won much more brilliant reputation than he
gained IN civil life. He to have been deterrd
from this profession by the early feebleness of his
constitution.
We say little to characterize Mr. Poinseu in
private life, never having enjoyed his personal
quaintance But, beyond question, he publ
spllted citizen, an honorable man, and greatly below
ed by those who intimately knew him Char. Mer.,
