THE JENNY LIND CONCERTS.
An Interesting "Reminiscences Re
lafed BY veteran.

" y r. Il
An the concerts were Of uniform excel
lenoe, and the Easy Chair is compe-
tent witness, at least SO far as attend
ance is concerned, for il heard all Of the
Lind concerts in New York except the
first. During the second season IN un-
known name appeared one evening mp
on the bin, which announced that Mr..
Otto Goldschmidt, q young and un-
known pianist, would play for the first
time In this country. Tripler Hall, op-
posite Bond street, upon Broadway,
was crowded as usual, and when Jenny
Lind had withdrawn after singing oneo
her numbers, " d slight, dark-haired
youth came upon the stage and seated
himself at the piano. He was courts
ously greeted, and Just as he was about
TO begin the door opened quietly OF the
back Of the stage and Jenny Lind stood
in full view Of the audience tranouilly
to listen. At happy point of the per-
formance she clapped heartily, and the
whole house, following it's lovely leader,
burst into storm OF applause. The
young man bowed to the audience and
to Miss Lind, and, as he ended, with
more hand -clapping and a bright and
kindly smile Jenny Lind vanished,
having, secured the success OF. Mr.
Otto Goldschmidt, It was q pref
ty scene. Perhaps the prima donna
assolnta recalled the fsrnous brava-f..
a-a 81 Lablanche on hor first evening al
her Maiesty's Opera House in London,
which satisfied England that she was d
great singer, and confirmed her career.
10 the audience her friendly interest
seemed the impulse Of kindly heart
for young neophyte in this profession.
Perhaps to Mr.. Otto Goldschmidt it was
something more. The seriesof Ameri-
can concerts which began on the 1lthl
of September, 1850, at Castle. Garden.
ended on the same placa on the z4th of.
May, 1864. The vast space ~ mot
well suited for singing, but the rnafnifia
cent voice filed ID completely, and in
the fascinated silence Of the immense
throng every exquisite note of the singer
could bo heard. She sang with evident
feeling, and with responsive tenderness
her audience listened. Every time she
appeared she carried fresh bouquet.
the sight Of which gladdened some
ardent young heart. But when at last
she appeared 10 sing the farewell to
America, for which Goldschmidt had
composed the music, she bore in her
hand q bouquet Of white rosebuds, with
maltese cross Of deep carnations in the
centre. This she held for the last time
when she sang In public in America, and
the young traveller who, FIVE years be-
fore, had turned aside at Dresden to
hear Jenny Lind in Berlin, alone in all
that great audience at Castle Garden
knew who had sent those flowers. Geo.
William Curtis in Harpsr's Magazine. D

GARDINER.

The community was very much shocked
Saturday morning on hearing of the death of
Mrs. Darling. sister of 4. Il. Lewis, from
poisoning herself with opium. Mrs Darling
was over 60 years of age. Mrs. Lewis was
away from home Friday and Mr.. Lewis did
n, go home to dinner, but on his return at
night he found the door locked but gained
admittaDce only to be surprised by the sad
affair. The cause was probably from the
loss of husband and child recently.
The reception at the coli scum Friday night
was brilliant affair and was enjoyed by q
large number both of those who INDUCED in
the pastime of dancing and those who enjoy
ed the luxury of seeing others dance. The
| costumes were elegant and costly but the
heavy shower was an unpleasant occurrence
just at that time. Prof. Theme rendered
short programme Of very pleasing music
after which large number glded until the
small hours began to grow larger. Among
those from out Of town we noticed Prof.
Robertson and wife FROM Augusta, Miss
Emerson of Lincoln, DIR. Geo. II. Brickett
and sister of Augusta, Capt. Cobaugh and
wife of Togus, John Dyke of Brunswick,
Everett Stone and wife Of Augusta. The
class are to be congratulated on the success
of their exercises and particularly the recep-
tiou. As it was reunion of all past mem-
bers of the high school there vas many .
hearty greeting and hand shaking with old
school mates and many pleasant incident OF
past school life was alluded to and ! think
We heard some talked over with real enjoy
mcnt Refre shments were served and each
one left the hall having fully enjoyed the
evening.
