have relied upon the very enormity OF
their schemes to turn suspicion into

for fear. 1t was 80 in France in the
time of Louis XVI; it was so in Eng

and it was so in America as late as
1860, with the sccessionists OF the

The Dashing Winter.

AS spring approaches-and as "the
carnival we have been having in New
York this winter, is going over, as Lent
approaches, it may be as well, to re
member that never before in New York
have we had any thing like the present
extravagant, dashing, crashing, smash-
iny winter. The soirees, matinees, balls
Of all kinds. have been innumcrable,

as they have had this winter, and new

home so crashed that little is left Of thcil
light dresses but rags; while the moth
ers, who have big trains, come home

The milliners and dress makers have
profitcd abundantly from this, and ma
ny of them have grown rich, as people
care but Ii tie what they pay for bon
nets, or robes, or laces, or the making
of them up.
| Another new feature in the extrava,
gancc this winter, has been, the use OF
Public Halls and Public Places, to give
private Balls or routes in: New York
Houses are not large enough to hold
the now great crowds Of fashionable

are sometimes given, where if the givel
