JENNY LryD--With the announ cement Of ID
retirement of Giulia Grisi from profession
that has crowned her life with laurels, com
the pleasanter Que of the temperance G
Jenny Lind Goldschmidt. After an absenc,
of nearly seven years, the labors Of which hav,.
been devoted to the cause Of charity and mrr
cy, which bave made her almost an idol in tn
heart OF the English people, she returns to tn"
sceres Of her former triumphs Tbe occasio
selected for her re-appearaDce was at a charita

success Of Madame Goldschmidt, and of H.
greetings she received at the hands of the Eop
lish people, the Literary Gazette says
Many reasons are assigned for her rea
pearance in public, but we fancy the truth Is
that, having been appreciated 80 fully aud
universally. the admiration alike of pala',
and cot, she finds private life somewhat ci
prison, golden cage from which sbe would
gladly escape. To sing to public that sh,
delights must be itself delight to such an arti
as Jenny Lind. She has been accustomed u,
it from childhood. and such ties are not casil,
severed. Had she returned with faded voic
and diminished powers 1t would have be.r
cause for deep regret, but fortunately, the
Madame Lind -Goldschmdt of to day is H..
Jenny Lind who retrieved the failing fortune.
