Montreal, January 14.  The face of affairs is now greatly
changed---dancing, feasting, and merriment, go swimmingly
round.-- The greatest harmony and the best understanding now
subsists between both sexes--The black and white mingling
together in nocturnal assemblies form an undistinguished
band, where throwing off the painful restraint of ceremony,
our youth freely unbend their minds from the labour of the
day, by indulging themselves in innocent and inoffensive
diversion. . .
