great exertion without exhausting brilliancy of tone Jenny Lind's voice is rally as strong as the most exacting critic o the modern Italian school could desire It is certainly incapable of delineating excessive and H such be the highest achievement of the singer's art ny Lind must yield the to lani and of her predecessors But in the expression of hope joy or grief no tones of human voice or instrument can compare with those of Jenny Lind They penetrate the inmost recesses nf the heart and touch insensibly that mysterious chord in our ture the of which causes the ing tear to flow involuntarily There is an inexpressible tenderness in her voice it is so sympathetic with genuine feeling of a loving and nature and it so well with her appearance that the BV MATHEW me one hath said that is women the great business of life as w th men it ia only an an tant one to he sure but only among man to which their attention is directed and kept entirely out of view Now this diffe ence gives the other sex a greater ad- vant ige over and the best way tn j ize j our lot and become as as are i is to think as little about it as they do T ie less your mind dwells upon lovers and mati the more agreeable sind profitable will be your intercourse with gentlemen II you regard men as intellectual who access to certain sources of knowledge of which you are deprived and seek to derive all t

undue importance to the of gentlemen it svill most tain y show itself in your manners con- vers alien and will betray a weakness that is hel in especial contempt by the stronger sex S ace the customs of society have awarded to r lan the privilege of making the ad- e towards matrimony it is the and hap way for women to leave the matter in his bands She should be so as to that the end of iste fur

that in passages expressive of prayerful entreaty or profound emotion ny Lind is supreme Wo one eo portrays the shades of sentiment or thu ever-varying emotions of love And yet not be supposed that the voice is unfitted for melodies of a more joyous acter Tbe crisp silvery quality of her per and her unrivaled power of lating them and sustaining and attenuating a note until it dies away in the
