none the less their way 10 the heart and if 10 wake
the sources OF emotion. and to dart through whole
auditory kindred thrill, be any proof of musical
power and skill then may Miss CATHARINE HAYES
lay claim to both; for surely never did woman sing
with more Of that contagious pathos which acts
like an electric stroke spreading nstantaneously
through a thousand hearts. Her rendering of that
exquisite aria of Mayerbeer's (" .ah mon 6s." and
in which she made her debut at Tripler Hall.

venture to express the belief that Miss HAYES ex.
cells Jenny Lind in that warm Italian style Of sing
ing which the anti Scandinavian critics" taxed
the Swedish songstress Gusay, in my opinion)
with not possessing. In listening to Miss Lind,
one was reminded of that unearthly melody which
Spenser describes as being heard in the bower
Of bliss'- fa > i e8.t
/, Rzht hard it was for wight which did il hear
To read what manner mu.ic that might be.
But there is none Of this bewitchng perpIexity in
listening to her Irish sister who now reigns Queen
Of Song. Her melody is melting human melo-
dy, coming from the heart and going to the heart,
and thus breaking up the fountains Of the great deep
within us while Jenny Land, by her weird strains
seemed to transix the hearer in mute asonishments
In word, the style of Miss Hayes is much more
adapted to popular appreciation than was Miss
Lind's; but will she be more popular? think
not, and will leave Mr.. Barnum to give many and
weighty reasons on which this conviction is found
ed. Miss Hayes has no such impresario.
The literary record Of the past few weeks does
notpresent much Of interest The " Literature and
Literary Men Of Great Britain and Ireland of
Professor MILLS, from the press of Harper & Bro
theirs, has been already noticed in your columns,
and is certainly book for all those who desire to
dip into the swell Of English unde6ed,'' or who
delight to sip what is most recherche in its subse-
quent literature. A later issue of the same pub
fishers is ''Fhe Nile Boat, or Glimpses of the
Land Of Egypt," by w. H. BARTLETT, i most en-
tertaining work respecting land which has been
invested with historic interest by successive ex-
plorers, from old Herodotus down to Mr.. Bartlett.

II might be Of interest to mention the immediate
particulars connected with the establishment OF the
initial point" on the Pacific. 1t was effected on
the 10Th of October, 1850, but the marble monu-
ment to be erected there did not arrive TIL June IN
the following year. On the l4th OF July, capt.
Hardcastle and Senor Ramirez, in the presence OF
number of persons of both countries, deposited
in the base of the monument at the initial point
a bottle containing sheet Of parchment, stating
the appointment Of the Commission, list of its
members, the distance Of the point one marine
league south of the southermost point of the port
Of San Diego and its geographical position in lati-
