Our advertising column contains the an
nouncement Of two concerts to be riyen at
Bryan Hal1, next Monday and Tuesday even
iDgs, by Gottsehalk, the celebrated pianist aud
composer, assisted by Nile. Carlotta Patti and
cthcr artists from the New York Academy of
huslc- No one needs reminding that this
will be the concert Of the season. Gottschalk
is the poet Of the piano, and in this respect
Stands above all planists. He unites not only
The mechanical skill Of the graatest playcrs Of
tie age, such as Listz, Thalberg, Sstter and
otherE, but he has talent which nopc of
them can claim, viz: that of moving the heart
of his hearers and infusing into them a DOR.

and man is oycrfowing. Apropos of this, we
copy the following from the PHILADELPHIA
Press:
with bewilderipg genius, the embodiment
OF all schools and styles, Gottachalk apain
comes among us. As an author is known bV

chalh-tuu OF grace, passion. He comes
unasEumIugly upon the stage and seats him

pass over the keys with soft, feathery mo- me-
ton, suggesting, with few flashing unduIa-
tions, music's infinite world, SO light, So
cSanescent, and sparkling, live the delirious

touches our lips. Soon, with entire and abso-
lnte abandonment, his soul goes forth in his
ately.
i" Passion itself is exalted, and divine utter
aEce is given 1t. The whole room is filled
with harmony, and #hen he ceases, the walls
seem ffilt to echo the eounds, SO that the first
foreign noise is like m electric shock

THE CAPTURE OF 1snArp no, 10.


The glorious news Of the capture Of Islaud
Number Ten Eas received In the city yestcr-
day morning with most e1trayagant demon
STATIONS Of joy. When the brief dispatch
announcing that the four weeks' Siege had
been successful, that the Notifications, arms,
ammunition aud commissary stores Of the
enemy had fallen into the hands Of our Vest
ern soldiers, was first posted upon the TR1-
BusE bulletin board, It WIS Immediately sur-
rounded by an immense crowd Of excited and
enthusiastic citizens, whose heartfelt cratula-
ti5ns and shouts Of applause soon brought
others to the spot, and it was not probably ten
minutes before the great news was spread
oFcr the entire city. Immediately, from the
shipping in the harbor, from the flagstaff at
the top Of the Court House, from the different
newspaper Offices, public halls, and many pri-
Sate dwellings, the American ensign was sent
forth, and was kept waving during the duy.
The conversation upon the streets, the talk on
Change, On South Water street, at all the
public places OF resort, and, in fact, all over
the city, during the whele day turned upon
this Important and welcome intelligence.
Business, as a matter Of course, was i'm.
pe1ed By the excitement consequent upon
the receipt of the news. People conld not
work when their thoughts were constantly
wandering away, down the Mississippi,
to the fleet and the army, where this grand
victory had been achieved. Lawyers forsook
their briefs, Judges their benches, jurics were
anxious to desert their box, and Everybody
