ing, and another forbids smoking in the dancing
hall altogether.
Reaching the head Of the stairs, uponyour right
is a bar, at which wines and liquors are sold
directly in front is rouge et notr table, around
which crowd of both sexes are eongregated !;
upon your left is the bali room, at which, if your
conscience permits, we will look for moment
through the door.
There is at first but small number OF the OPP
posite sex present, who are all hooded and mask
ed in pink and white domfnoes, but an Eruption
of carriages is heard in the street below and in
moment there Will be crowd. Until then the
masks move about in the faded hall like shadows
and phantoms. If they speak they cannot Dc
heard, and at distance appear to be converting
in dumb language. AS it's the opening night, q
large class Of invited male guests and sensation
seekers Of the better sort, stand near the doors
Mingled with these are the milder scas, gentlemen
whose shirt bosoms and fingers are adorned with
| diamonds, whose dress would be unexeeptionabls
| il it were not too prononos. But the crowd from
below has reached the hall above, and the world
| within commences dancing as il mad. The latest
accessions rustic in silks and satins, but appear
| unused to the cancanesque abandon OF manner,
which the other frequenters affect. They have
escaped all disasters at sea and are mot yet ac-
eustomed to the atmosphere of the place.
L The dance will continue until morning, and vii
gain in intensity as the hour progresses. There
will be some money staked andlost, and Some bot
ties of wines emptied; there viii be some heavy
idded eyes the next day, and some sober refee
tions, which might have been thought of sooner.
1t is our part to state facts and to leave the eader
to draw the moral for himself.

CANADIAN CONFEDERATION VERSUS ASSFxA-
rios.--Our Toronto correspondence, published
10 yesterdays paper, furnishes some very curl
GUS facts in regard to the effect Of the late
Fenian raid on Canada in reference 10 confeder-
alton and annexation. II is represented that
there has been q growing sentiment among the
people there in favor OF annexation TO the
United States, but that the tide Is now changed
In favor Of confederation. The cause OF all
this Is set down as follows:--"Thc return of
good crops, the dread Of being saddled with
portion Of our large war debt, tho repeal
Of the Reciprocity treaty and the threaten.
ing attitude Of the Fenians.' These things, and
not the love Of confederation, are said to have
killed OF the annexation party. All This may
be the cause and no doubt, In q measure, has
created sufficient excitement TO enable the con-
federation party to appeal 10 the fears and pas
sions Of thc people and thus obtain tempo
rsry triumph; ggl when our neShbqy over

Hungary and Germany, while he keeps the
French democrats under the bayonst. His
policy has been the same az Richelieu's-viz
to benefit France by augmenting the domestic
troubles Of her neighbors. But, although the
revolutionary democratic element will mingle
In the European war and may possibly decide
the contest, it may also break loose in France.
Revolutions are contagious The French demo-
Gratis may undertake at home the same revolts
which Napoleon encourages in Poland and
Hungary. The recent speech Of John Bright
upon the law Of primogeniture, in which he
denounced the peerage in the name Of the peo-
pie, shows that England-also . conniver at
revolutions elsewhere-will be scarcely more
safe than France, if general democratic up
rising shall be one Of the features Of the COM
ing war. Looking over the whole field, there
fore, we conclude that few if any of the
Powers Of the Old World will escape damage
during the conflict, and that several Of them
will be completely revolutionised. Thus,
while this great republic, under the guidance Of
radical politicians, is rapidly drifting towards
imperialism, the empires Of Europe may soon
be transformed into republican governments.

DETALcATIoS AT MEMPHIS. -Representatiye
Wsshburne, Of Illinois, on Saturday last pre-
sented to the House the facts relative 10 the
defalcation of the special Treasury agent Carl
ton, at Memphis. 1t appears that the govern
ment loses in this transaction some five hun
bred and fifty thousand dollars, or upwards OF
half million. The developments in different
localities bid fair TO place the present period
In history as the age Of corruption and defal-
cations. This and similar cases are the irst
fruits Of the Chase national bank system and
The looseness with which the financial affairs OF
the govern ment are transacted through those
insti u 3. by agents Of the Treasury Depart
ment. In almost every locality where circum.
stances develop their working defalcations
and heavy losses to the government are
brought to light. As this affair Of Cartons Is
10 be further investigated by the Banking Com
mittse Of Congress we trust that they will
recommend legislation that will put q stop to
oil such transactions in the future. The de.
velopments which followed the failures OF tie
national banks in the oil region OF Pennsylva.
mia and Of the Merchants' National Bank at
Washington show the urgent necessity OF Con.
gress applying remedy. Unless this Is done
we have only Witnessed the commencement, o.
the difficulties In this line and have realized
only bsgatelle in the losses that the govern.
ment will meet from similar causes.
