delivered the fifth of his series of lectures last eve
ming in the above place, and to large and highly
delighted audience. His experiments, illustrating
the pressure Of the atmosphere, were of most
convincing and interesting character. The air
pump was put into requisition, and by extracting
| the air from variety of vessels, the usual phe-
nomena were exhibited But we were particularly
pleased with the experiment performed, illustrative
of the pressure Of the atmosphere, and without The
aid of the above apparatus, by simply causing
portion Of water to boil by the aid of spirit lamp
in tin vessel, having at its orifce a stop-cock,
which, while ebullition going on, was shut, and
the lamp at the same time removed. The vapor
shortly afterwards condensing, left vacuum in the
Interior and the sides Of the vessel were by the ex
ternal PRESSURE pressed in leaving the tin can in
wofully battered looking state. For simplicity
and satisfaction, this experiment answered the pur-
pose, and in way which met the commentator

The experiments, :oo in connection with this

mode followed by the necromancer in removing
the contents of bottle, filing empty glasses with

Arrival OF Jenny Lind.

The announcement in the evening papers of yes
terday, that the Falcon swasn the river with Jenny
Lind on board, created considerable stir, and by a
o'clock in the afternoon large crowd had collected
on the Levee opposite the Place d'Armes, where
the steamer was expected to land. At half-past 4
o'clock the Falcon hove in sight, and by this time
the concourse Of people numbered three four
thousand As the steamer neared the wharf, al
eyes were strained to catch glimpse Of the fair
songstress. Soon after the landing, Miss Lind,
accompanied by Mr.. Barnum, stepped ashore, and
proceeded in carriage to the prepared for her

acknowledgements to the crowd amidst cheers
which made the welkin ring. Her success here
will, without doubt, come up to the most sanguine
antiGpations.

The JACKSON MONUMENT.-We are pleased to
learn that the subscription list for the proposed
Jackson Monument, to be erected in the Square of
the Place d'Armes, is rapidly being filled up with
respectable sums of money; but, Notwithstanding
the amount likely to he raised in the city, it will fall
short of that required to carry out the plan equal
to the merits of the object. It will, therefore, be
expedient TO resort for the deficiency, to all the
parishes of the State !; and it is to be hoped that
public meetings will be called by the proper au-
thorities to devise ways and for the purpose
We are sure that every parish will subscribe lber-
ally, without regard TO party and that they will

CoTToN.-The Liverpool Circulars of Washing
ton Jackson IL Co., announce the opinion of tina
well-known house in favor of the frmness of high
prices. The weekly consumption for the last year
has been 30,633 bales, against 305l1 bales of the
year 1s49-or, total of 1892 92O in 1850, agans,
,5l2,920 of 1S49. The stock of American Cotton
in the kingdom 31st December last, was 272, 7lC
bales against 3l7,3l0 same time 1s49; and the
total stock, 521, 100 against 55s,34O, or 81 ,22O
bales less than last year-say decrease of Ameri-
can, $4,000 bales; of Brazil 26, $50; of West India
$50; Egyptian, 1880; while of East India there
is an increase of 81, $40 bales.
The import for 1850 shows decrease of 295, $50
bales Of American Cotton in England. But the
high prices excited the production in other quarters
and the1 actual decrease of all kinds, is $4,000
bales. We think the time is coming when the
Cotton bale will become the standard of value, and
all the articles of less importance, gold and sill
yer, will be measured by the pound of Cotton, and
not that by the grain of gold.
