NEW YORK BALLs.-This winter
has been the witness to some Of the
most magnificent and extrayagant
public festivities ever seen, we sup
pose, in the world. We have never
read of such in ancient or modern
times. Everything that genius and
art could devise to promote scenic
display and brilliancy was employed
with the most lavish expenditure. We
read the accounts of them not with
out apprehension. Such excesses have
too often marked the eras of great
calamities for mankind.
One of these balls was masked Of
fair. The maskers danced till 12
o'clock, and then dropped their dis
guises- 20 and behold! the most
embarrassing situations were deve-
loped. One paper says a brother
found himself making love to his sis
teri husband to wife-and others
of still more delicate relations involv-
ed in similar awkwardness. This is,
to our ideas, bordering on the horri-
BILE; and yet the maskers are said to
have been respectable people. Much
better would it have been to have
kept the masks on till the revels were
ended.

NEWSPAPER SUBSTITUTES. s.-The New
York Nation says that in Italy, where
the Government exercises q certain
control over the press, it is the Gus
tom for each journal to maintain a
stout laboring man, who, for stipu-
lated salary, consents to be cast into
prison in atonement for such offences
as the journal may commit. Conse-
quently, this honest fellow spends
half his days in arrest; the journalists
pay the hnes and write what they
please. The Nation thinks that this
would be the true principle on which
to render the journalists personally
responsible in this country.

The situation. .

We have already expressed our
opinion on the message Of President
johnson, 8 > vetoing The Freedmen's
Bureau bill. This veto renders it
certain that Andrew johnson is supe-
rior to party ties. and!wil not submit
to party dietatien.s There was never
introduced into Congress (says CO.
temporary 8 bill bearing more Nh
equivocal party stamp. 1t was ori-
ginally supported by Republicans of
all stripes and lines; by Doolittle, as
well as Summer; by Raymond, as
well as Stevens. 1t was also avowedly
the first Of series of measures con-
ceived in The, same spirit, and intend
ed to- complete q policy for tile. go
vernment of the Southern States.
The veto is q blow at the whole sys-
tenn. The President could in no
other way have SO fully abjured party
allegiance, and declared his impartial
devotion to the interests OF the whole
county,. ~,e......
This action Of The President will
give to the South an assurance, which
it has not yet felt, that its rights will
be effectually protected until it has
representatives in Congress to speak
and act in its interest The veto will
arrest the growing, ,coldness and
alienation consequent. on the over
bearing action of the dominant ma
jority, and will encourage the South
to proceed in recognizing its in
dustry on the basis of freedom, by
the assurance that, if it acts reason
ably, it will not be subject to imper-
tinent intermeddling.
This veto will put an effectual stop
to the deceptiye. pretenses made by
the Republicans, for electioneering
purposes, that they are supporters
of the President. 1t will divide the
sheep from the goats, and cause
complete revolution in the party
politics of the country. Those who
are for the President will vote in such
a way as to make their support free
from all ambiguity; and the President
himself will not be likely to tolerate
opposition to his policy by those on
whom he,bestows his patronage.

President johnson.

The failure of the Northern mails
yesterday, apd, indeed, of the South
ern and Southwestern mails, neces-
sarily contracts our amount of news
and reading matter. We published
yesterday despatch, briefly inform
ing us sd as to President Johnson's
response to the complimentary de-
monstrations made on that day. 20 +
Andrew johnson has come up to
the work manfully, and when he
stands up in the portico of the
"White House" and utters the SEN
timents reported by telegraph, we
honor him, and will do everything in
oar power to sustain him.
Our late Northern exchanges are
filled with accounts of demonstrations
in honor Of President johnson s veto
message: Immense gatherings have
taken place in many of the large cities
and speeches by number of pro-
minent men are reported. A profuse
display Of flags and the firing of
salutes are. among the incidents of
the occasion. We have reason to
believe that the majority of the
Northern people side with President
Johnson in the course he has seen fit
to take as regards national affairs.
On these important questions, how
ever, it is evident the Northern SEN
timent is not united. In opposition
to the President and his policy,
meetings have been held in q few
places for the purpose of encouraging
the Senators who voted for the Freed
mems Bureau bill, notwithstand-
ing the objections of the President,
also conveying an expression of sym
pathy to the members Of the House
Of Representative who favor the
passage Of the measure.

: Correspondence or the Phenix.

+ WASHINGTON. February %, 1866.
t is difficult to describe the sensa-
ton which the Presidents veto of
the Freedmen's s Bureau bill produced.
The Republicans are frantic with
rage, while, on the other hand, the
conservatives are iubilant. The
breach between the President and the
Republican party is final and COM
plete. 1t cannot be patched up.
The gulf is too deep to be bridged
over by any kind of party arrange
ment. The radicals pronounce the
President traitor, and they talk
very freely of impeaching him. But
from the vote in the Senate on
the veto, it is apparent that this
cannot command the necessary two
thirds to GUST him of his Office. The
appeal is now to the people of the
North. They will have to decide this
great controversy between the Execu-
tive and the radicals This is one of the
most momentous questions that has
ever occurred in history. It's in
fuence on the fate of the South will
be immense. If the radicals carry
the day, military despotism is made
q permanent institution at the South,
and the whole power Of the Govern
ment will be exerted to put the color
ed race South above the white race.
If the President succeeds, then no
greater changes are, made South than
are unavoidable-slayery being abo-
ished. In this contest, it is in the
power of the South to strengthen the
President immensely-perhaps to de-
eide the contest in his favor by wise
line of conduct. In order to know
what the South ought to do, it is
only necessary to ask what the radi-
calls want them to do, in order to beat
the President down. They want the
South to treat the free negroes hor-
ribly, to show the most hostile spirit
to the United States Government,
and to ill-treat Northern men visiting
the South, and generally to show that
they are disposed to be very ugly.
If the South will thus play into the
hands of the radicals, then the Presi-
dent will be beaten to death.
An immense meeting is going on
here now to sustain the President.
The employees of the Government
generally take sides with the Presi-
dent. They mo do11ht know which
side of their bread is buttered.
It is thought the Cabinet will Ger
tainly go to pieces. Stanton, Speed
and Harlan are very radical-they
must go out. Mr.. Seward goes with
the President. This is a good sign,
for Mr.. Seward has good scent for
the winning side. He knows, like
Falstaff, "the prince by instinct
The Supreme Court has ordered
some of the Southern cases remain
ing on the docket to be taken up.

STRAKoscH DECORATED.
Strakosch, Adelina PATHS brother-in-
law and agent. has just received from
the King Of Italy the Cross of the
Order of St. Maurice and st. Lazare.
Interested parties ask why, Some
reply that the decoration was given
him because Adelina Patti sings we'll
and because she IS tll.s greatest living
artist. Whereupon II .oirata re-
marks that new order of cheualieres
should be instituted for Tie benefit OF
female celebrities, and that, inasmuch
as the Empress Eugene has given the
Cross of the Legion of Honor to
Mile. Rosa Bonheur, King Victor
Emanuel might as well confer the
honors of the order upon Patti her
self. One deserves the distinction as
much as the other. r.-Floyence LeAes. Of

"FEr1sH" CUsroM REVIVED. A
correspondent OF the Baltimore Ga
ze4e, writing from Pleasant Hill.
Alabama, says:
The free negroes of this neighbor-
hood have already advanced in civil
zation by establishing m ism" Of
their own in the way of religion, the
principal features of which are
plurality of wives, and the revival OF
the Fetish custom of dancing over
the graves of their departed friends.
Also, what they term the "holy
dance" is one of the essential ele-
ments Of their worship ON all occs~
sions. You know my brother btalt
a church and hired minister to- in
struct his negroes, but he has had to-
discontinue his labors for the want of
hearers.
