the same light as the Fenians were by the Canadians.
The invasion of the Garibaldians has brought out the
qualities of the Pontifical troops, and their deeds in
the fights of Monte Rotondo and Bagnorea will show
to the world how well they deserve the character which
those who knew them best knew they possessed—that
of brave heroes. The Unita Cattolica gives the follow-

simultaneously at different points in groaps of from 250
to 600 men. They select the points farthest removed
from the small bands of defenders, They plunder the
local treasuries, fortify themselves in some little village,
or on some hvight, and, hope at a given signal to
pounce on Rome, But they have made an egregious
blunder. They counted on the sympathies of the pop-

the’$800,000 were offered (which is very improbable)and
accepted to-morrow, notone dollar would be applied
to liquidate the dubts of those owing the Government
forland, and right well does the Jslander know this
fact. The expectations raised by the /slandcr ave false
and pernicious, and as such we put our readers on their
guard against them. Any man who owes the Govern-
ment for land should lose no time in paying the same
when due, for he may rest sssured that whether the
$800,000 be received or not, be will be forced to pay.
with increased expenses, or forfeit his holding.

REPEAL!

Tunis is a strange cry to be heard issuing from the
lips of free-born British Americans m the afternoon of
the ninteenth century, and yet such has been the ignoble
history of confederation, and the infamous treachery of
Tupper towards Nova Scotia that the people of that
Province find themselves forced to the task of obtaining
a repeal of the hated union with Canada, and recover-
ing their lost and cherished privileges. The following
Declaration from the members ef the Local Legislature
of Nova Svotia, will be read with peculiar interest by
the people of this Island, and not without benefit when
they come to reflect upon the attempts of local cdn-
spirators to serve them as were the Nova Scotians:—

At a meeting of the Members of the House of Assembly
in the Assembly Room, in the Provineial Building at

tion, and having effected that object, cannot separate
without making known to our constituents our unan-
imous and unalterable determination to use every law-
ful and constitutional means to extricate the Province
from the operation of the Barris Norra Amertca Act,
the passage of which, in the Imperial Legislature, wae
obtained by falsehood fraud and deoeption.

Telegraph, a Unionist paper, admits and deplores the
fact that Confederation will largely increase taxation,
already too high, and nearly one hundred per cent. in
excess of that to which the people of this Island are
subjected. The Montreal Gazette, a Ministerial or-
gan, also admits the same fact, and we think the peo-
ple of this Island will, ere long, have the most substan-
tial reasons to congratulate themselves for having thus

far declined the luxury of enormous taxation under the
New Dominion.
