Late Cable dispatches announce the approval, by the British Government, of the plan of federation submitted by the delegates from the North American Provinces, übo have been several weeks in London on that business. The New York Sun says the scheme approved contemplates the union of the Upper and Lower Canadas, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. Prince Edward's Island aud New Foundland have not yet decided to join the Confederation but will be able to do so at any future time. Provision is nlso made to admit British Columbia and the Northwest territory, whenever it may be deemed desirable. A general legislature, or Parliament, is provided for the fede rated provinces, and will bo composed of a House of Commons and a Legisla tive Council, Informing the latteri the provinces will be considered in three divisions, of which Upper Canada will be first, Lower Canada second, and Nova ticotia and New Brunswick third. The Executive power will be vested in an authorized representative of the Sovereign of Great Britain and Ireland —the Governor General—who will also be Commander in Chief of the army and uavy. The basis of representation in the House of Commons is to be the population, as determined by official census every ten years. For each of the provinces there is to be an Execu tive officer called the Lieutenant Gov ernor. who will be appointed by tlie Governor General in council, aud paid by the General Legislature. Each of the provinces consenting to this scheme of federation will have its own .local Government and Legislature for the management of its local affairs. Snch is the general plan of the confederation as agreed npou in the conference held at Quebec, in which all the provinces had voice and representation. Some modifications may be thought expedient in the details of the arrangement, but the principal points will remain sub stantially the same, and kill probably be carried into effect with as little delay as possible. Southern' Haii.roads. A table which is published, shows that the Southern Railroads owe the United States Government $6,570,000 for roll ing stock and material sold so them af ter the close ol the war. The Boston Advertiser says: It will be observed that the date of this report. July 1, 1866, but five of the forty seven companies therein named had paid their indebtedness. On that day there fell due the sum of $875,000, of which, as has been ascertained from other sources, hut a very small percent age was paid. Over SIOO,OOO fell due on the Ist of the last month, of which, also, hut a small amount was paid. The aggregate due from the va rious companies is about the same now as it was last July, the payments by a low of them barely covering the iuterests lulling due from others. Removal ok the Obstruction.—The Ikrnld compares the attitude of Presi dent Johnson and Congress to two mule, teers on the crags of the Andes, one of whom, when neither party will back out, has to be hurled to destruction on the rocks below. The Herald also calls Mr. Johnson the dead-lock against Southern reeon si ruction and restoration, and says if he will not turn the key and open the door, it will be opened by taking off the lock with the screw-driver of impeachment. These comparisons are given as straws showing the drift of popular sentiment North, of whieh the Herald is a pretty safe weather cock. That Secret Expedition.—lt is now staled that the real business of Assistant Secretary Seward in his recent secret expedition, was the purchase of the Bay of Samaua, on the North side of San Domingo, as a naval depot and coaling station. This bay which has an inland stretch of forty miles, and is eight miles broad, forms one of the best harbors in the West Indies, aud the town of Bar bara, located on the adjacent shore, furnishes excellent natural facilities for repairing vessels. An attempt was made daring the administration of Pres" blent Pierce to purchase that bay, but the trade was never perfected. What People?—The Herald says that in resisting the overwhelming power of Congress, President Johnson is clearly resitting the will of the peo ple. That depends upon who are recognized as the people. Mr. Johnson is sustained by nine tenths and more of the voting people of the South, and the late elections show that on popular vote at the North, his policy is sustained by almost half the voters there. There fore it is Congress, and not the I’resi* dent, which is resisting the will of the people. A Dance With an Iqjin. THE EDITOR OP THE VICKSBURO HERALD AT A MASMVKKADK BALL—HI* OWE ACCOUNT. On account, perhaps, of the manifold duties always pressed upou us, we have never learned to waltz—we have never placed our arm around a fragile, fairv, fleecy, fluctuating form, and whirligigged around loose, hut at the Graud Masquerade aud Fancy Dress Ball, on last Tuesday night, we hap pened to express our regrets at this defi eiem v in our education to a young, plump, fresh, and closely dominoed In jun girl, while we wire promenading the vast hall with tho luscious humpsv dumpsy. Shu sweetly intimated that the hubbub of such au occasion, wheua faux }>as would scarcely be noticed, was tho very best time in the world to learn. We would uot acknowledge our name if we had backed out from such au offer, and as a matter ot course, we very siylv requested ber to afford us the sublimely perpendicular pleasure of a small les.sou, merely for the purpose of gelling acquainted with each other, and giving us a relish tor our victim's at supper. Sweet and gorgeous aboii ginei— without swearing,she'd ne’er eoi - sent—she consented—dry so. Gently, delicately, fastidiously, and timidly we placed our arm around ber pliant waist —and almost wasted away. Her long raven locks tickled our elbow. Thous ands of millions ot spotted beads vibra ted and tinkled around her fairy form, as her bosom rose and fell to give them melody, like au harp upon the heaving sea. Her hand was in ours— as soft as a pussy cat’s back, as she si leolly watches a mouse hole at the soft and witching hour of twilight. Her left foot was against our right boot. The gaudy leathers upon her mocassins tick led our mauly knees. Our eyes met. Two soft and melting glances shot out of the holes in her domino, and two soft and melting glauccs shot out of her dom ino—aud coming together in the middle emitted sparks like thell. E. Lee round ing to at Williams’ wharf boat on a dark night in the latter part of Decem ber. Music rose with its voluptuous swell and drew nearer to us—aud we aroso with our voluptuous swell and drew nearer unto the female red man. Her warm breath was upon our fingers, ami her long raven hair went fiippy-ty.flop over our shoulder. We had not yet waltzed an inch, and we didn’t care a Confederate boud it we never moved from that spot, till the editor ot the Vicksburg herald joined the Sons of Temperance. We shook back our yel low locks, and immediately the air was laden with the balmy odor of Martha Washington Hair Restorative, for sale by Hardaway k Cos., and all respectable druggists. We bowed low our editorial head, and whispered in a voice whose dulcet and mellifluous notes, would have melted the heart of a deputy con stable—" Gorgeous child of the forests, whose ancestor discovered Columbus, would we were a glove upon that hand, that we might touch that cheek—would we were a pair of moccasins upon those feet that we might caress thy corns— would we were a loug bunch ol raven hair that we might flop around that neck—would «ve were an open barrel ol golden syrup, that thou might dip thy finger in us and lick it—would we were a coronet, that we might rest upon that brow—would we were a roll of green backs that we might stay in thy pocket —would we were a brindle dog, that we might guard thy wigwam —would we were a big black rooster's tail, that we might dangle near thy face—would we were an Indian cbierl ” Thiffi far' we spaketh, and she sighed. Her ruby lips did part, and she speaketli: ‘Tf you arc done wooding up, we'd better lift in, for the music is wasting away.” We let in, aud we wasted away. Uur two hearts beat with such responsive throbs, that a greased case-knife could not have entered between the throbs. It seemed as if ten thousand Citterpillurs were emigrating up our back, and turtle doves were picking meal bran out of our ears. Huge sighs of the size of a rutabag turnip escaped our lips ; heard murmuring brooks, whispering boughs, and warbling birds, and tinkling cow bells, and we floated far away on a fleecy cloud of one hundred dollar greenback bills. The music ceased, but the Washington Hall kept on waltzing. The Indian maid sought her native for ests, and we are carried by our friend to the 'limes office, with a cramp in the bottom of our ieet, and our eyes turned wrong side outwards. Funky Finale of a Chicago Mas querade.—The Chicago Journal tells of a masquerade hall in that city, in which about 12 o’clock the revelers were as tonished suddenly to see a body of [>o iiceinen, numbering nearly fifty, march into the hall, surround all present, order them to “fall in,” and then march them off, attired as they were in fantastic costumes, to the cells of the armory! The scene on the route of procession to the “slaughter pen” was one which can better be imagined than described, as amongst the prisoners might have been seen devils, dragons, bears, creatures half horse or ass, and half man, huge biped fish, cats, and other monsters, perambulating bitter bottles, monstrous lizards, and one elephant. This gro tesque horde, marching, hobbling, and limping between two files of grim po licemen, some singing, some moodily sileut, at dead of night, into tbe gray arches of the armory building, was a scene worth depicting on canvass. As a matter of course, one and all were charged with being disorderly, aud each was fined $5 and costs. The Yacht Henrietta. —J. G. Ben nett, Jr., tendered the yacht Henrietta as a New Year’s present to Prince Alfred, as the representative of English yachtmen. Prince Alfred replied, in timating that, personally, lie felt it ira possible to accept so costly a present, and if he felt compelled to decline it, trusted that neither Mr. Bennett, his competitors, or their countrymen, would less appreciate or less reciprocate the feeling of good fellowship which prompt ed the offer. Tho letter concludes with u high compliment to (ho Henrietta, and tho most friendly sentiments to* ward America. Effects <V a Strike.—A crowd of negroes assembled iu Suvannuh on Wednesday to prevent any of the steve dores who had been on a slrike front going to. work. They were promptly arrested, and eight of them were fined SSO or 60 days’ imprisonment. New Advertisements. Ninety Head OF FISK YOUNG MULES AND HORSES AT FUBLIC AUCTION.
