Already in tlic past eighteen months ; t

the extent of eight hundred dollars! It is j

the commonest comforts, ;m<l nearly every ! j
social enjoyment in life. It is trite that a j |
nail of this excess of expenses was con. j \
sequent upon a change of domicile from ' i
one station to another, hundreds of i |

and I am liable to a necessity for such a j
change as often as once at least in every Si
two years. ^

of it in these times: even Congress does I

according to llic spirit of tlie contract under
which, twenty years ago, I engaged* lo

THE CARNIVAL BECOMING ANGLO SAXONIZED
tin
A correspondent or ll?c New York Kvening <> >
/'ox/, \vriling from Koine, thus speaks of the (*nrnival:
F.v
We reached Home in Hie height of the Carnival,
and if we wurfc disappointed in iht? n umber \j
ami extent of the architectural r<> imiiisof the an- rt?
cio'it city, thU curioii.? relic of the ancient satur- ,,,
nulia fell equally short of my expectat inn. Foreigner*.
and especially the Knglish ami Americans,
hi ve ruined thin festival. The ('amivul j,-f
|iro|ni' is nu iiiKtitiiiiou which could never exist aji
in perfection except in a country where tin; pop- c|(
illation is divided horizontally into classes belonging
to social conditions widely separated. It
flourished in perfection at n time when nearly Of
half of nil the inhabitants of Koino were slaves, ?
and it was their special holiday. They could
say on jlieae occasions what they pleased, and do
pretty much what they pleased, to their masters,
without fear of being culled to account lor their
conduct, liut tho nature and extent of the liber- A]
ties taken on such occasions may lie gathered
pretty definitely from one of the Satires of Ho
race, iu which ho reports a saturnaiian colloquy A
between liimse If and his slavo Davos. It is not
possible, however, to conceive of such an institution
being eontiniied if the tcmporaiy gift of On
freedom was abused iu a way to be offensive to ki(
the more privileged classes ; it is equally improbable
that the slave should take any offensive
liberties with ' a matter who lie knew the next .
day would bc,a master not only of his liberty but .J
of his life.
The distinctions in society among the Iialiunp,
have been and still aro sutlicieut to perpetrate for
the original spirit'and purpose of this institution C ]
under the naine of the Carnival, and Uiey usu- noi
ally enjoy it, I believe, more than any other holi- ]
<li?y. Hut of late, and this year in particular. ]in
Koine has been so thronged with strangers from asi
Kngland and America, and their equipages in 65
the carnival occupied so large a proportion of the
Corso, that, as near as I can learn, the festival has
undergoncsomo changes which has rendered it jjr
not only less interesting in itself, l>ui, what umnro t(.,|
to be dsplo^ed. less characteristic of the institu- I)le
t.ions ajrfJ civilization ill which it had its origin.
Forn??&-,c?nfoctioncrj' and flowers used to be
throwikfl'om one carriage to another, but for tho
most part in a complimentary spirit, and deriving <
Ciquiiney from the fact that the parties were uunown
to cncli otltcr, and in this wny were hol4ing
an allowable intercourse wljich on any o(lter
day wotiM be regarded as too familiar.
I$nt the Anglo-Saxoned ra?e do not seem to ..
have tlie faculty of enjoying this kind of sport J/
legitimately- They lake advantage of the privileged-elm
meter of lite day to annoy those they
meet and make litem ridiouloua. I'lwy throw Fo
confetti with violence ; if they see a black hat
in the fired, or anything that will be discolored
by theft artillery, they will take the utmost pains
to soil it as much as possible. I have even seen <, ]
them go so fur as to bend forward and deliberately
throw a whole Itnndful of confetti violently into
the facc of Indies casunlly crossing the street. Wo
and taking no i>art whatever m the sports of the Bn<l
occueiou. * \
