GREAT interest is manifested among the Nova Scotia Presbyterians, in the proposal to cede the New Hebrides to France. The New Hebrides were christianized by Nova Scotia missionaries. John Geddle of Pictou, was the pioneer, and when he went there there were oo Christians; but when he died there were nO heathens. Two Pictou men, brothers, named Gordor, were martyred there. There are two or three Nova Scotia missionaries there now. but these will be driven out by the Frerch. Public meetings will be held in Halifax, protesting against ceding the islands,
