APPEAL T0 NOVASCOTIANS IN AID or THE PATRIOTIC FUND.

The following verses. the production of a Novriscotinn lady, have so much oetical as well as patriotic merit, that we godly insert them.

England hasrput her armour on

To battle or the right, And gallantly eucli soldier son

Goes forward to the tight; Francs sends her chivalry and pride

'l'o quell the despot Cz:ir—- And Christian blade gleauis bright beside The Moslein scimitnr.

To guard the honour of their land, Repel their haughty foe:

The Allied troops—a dauntless band- Porth to the battle go.

Dauntless but sad—lhsy leave at home ‘ond wives and children dear ;

The glory won beside the tomb May well malts brave men fear

Not for the danger or the death ‘hat meet them on the way,- Dld Britain's sons e‘er quail beneath The fury of the fra 3 No! Alma's heights give proud reply,- 'l‘he Inkermann‘s red plain Tells of our army's chivalry, Wraps glory round the slain. Up rouse we then, and lift the weight ’ 0 which these warriors bow, Think the not of their desolate,

By Eng iind's hearth-stones now.’ How their fair helpless cliildreu press Round each fund mother's knee, Whose beating heait‘s full tenderness

Breaks forth in agony.

Burdened with weariness and pain, For those who fall and die,-

Who in their country's battle slain, Beside their foemen lie,

Pillowed on mother earth to rest Where broken Iaiices quiver,

By Bala,|tlavn's fortress crest, Beside the Alma river!

Think of the anguish in these homes, 'l‘he agony of heart,

When such dark bitter tiding comes The frozen drops to start.

And if to sorrow’s burden deep, Come want with iron tread-

Well ma those mourning orphans weep Their ero-fathers dead.

We to our country's glory thrill, er victories we i:ire;

Tlisn let us aid her in the ill Her riﬂed household bear;

Lift up at lerist the grasp of want, From young fair helpless things,

And to the hours of sorrow grunt A gleam of nicrcy's wings—

Giving new strength to those who march Where death's ﬁerce bolts are driven,—— And building up a rainbow arch Between the earth and heuven,—- Cheering the heart whose life-blood runs rth on the bat: ' To know that Britain's grateful sons His stricken ones will shi .

We have our fair Acadian homes, With tlioss we love the best;

Our soldiers wander mid the tombs Dug deep in Russia's breast.

We me not aid therii on the ﬁeld Ur raise the dying brow;

But we can help, protect and shield 'l‘lieir wives and children now.

Come then! to honour we appeal,

To sympstliy and pride,- 'Tis rnercy's task the sad to heal-

For England's cause they died! Up from our Novnscotian land

Be generous answer nisde,— Give honour to that warrior hand-

'I‘heir wives and children aid!

The Empress Eugenie works daily as the preparation oflint for the army. Visitor to her apartments receive as it matter of course it piece of old linnen, from which

they tire expected to make lint.

Notice has been issued at the Horse Guards that, with a view to encourage en- listment in the army, her Majesty had increased the bounty to recruits in the cavalry to £10, and infantry to 178; in the Royal Mariners recruits will now recive £8, and volunteers from the Militia £9.

'l‘he Board of Ordinance have had their attention drawn to a newly-invented revol- ving riﬁe now in use, and chambers similar to the repeating pistol. This weapon will discharge ﬁve shots in four seconds, and can be loaded with extraordinary facility.

An interesting ceremony took place on the parade-ground at Pembroke Dock last week, upon the occasion of the presentation of four medals for good and long service to four soldiers of the 31st Regiment, who are at present under orders for active ser- I vice in the Crimea. Major Kelly, who is 4 in command, delivered the medals to the soldiers, and addressed them in appropriate terms.

INCIDENT8 OF THE WAR.

AN Exciisivci: or Coun'ri:sir.s—A letter from the Crimea says :—“Wlii|e I am speaking of the ﬂeet, I must not forget to mention a circumstance which occurred the other day, us it is the ﬁrst trace of that spirit of civility which so eminently charac- terized Peninsulnr warfare, and of which very little is to be seen in the present wnr. All the communications about exchange of prisoners, burying of dead, Ste. were re- ceived by the Russians in a kind of surly spirit quite at variance with all traditions in the warfare of civilized VVestcrn nations. The. present instance makes the ﬁrst ex- ception. Some sime ago, the Stromboli was sent in towards the batteries ofthe harbour with a flag oftruce, in order to take back a Russian artillery officer in exchange for Lord Dunkellin. Sir Edmund Lyons took advantage oftliis opportunity to send as a present a cheese to the Russian admiral with whom he had been aquainted in former _:_._—:—— days. On the 15th inst. the compliment was Aus1'iiiii.is.—'I‘he advices from Australia returned. A I4-oared boat came out from are to Dec. 1. We observe by Sydney and the town and brought a deer as a present Melbourne papers that the Panama route back to the admiral, together with a polite for a line of steamers to Australia is at pre- letter from the Russian admiral, in which I sent attracting considerable attention in ihe hear the passage occurs, that ‘ the Russian . colonies. admiral remembers with pleasure the time Trade is in even a worse condition than of his equaintance with Sir Edmund, and in California; the statement of the imports regrets not to have seen him for so long, ex- and exports fi-om the last of July to date cept the other day, when he came in rather ve given, fully account for said conditi- close with the Agnmemnon.' 0 they were, of imports, £'.‘.,l98,287, _of

The latter took Iiiin atl first for one of his oivn eoinerades, and he therefore made the signal, which was, to knock twice with his hand on the but end of his gun, and say ‘Clintal.’ The Russian repeated the signal, but the Zouuve did not answer, wcll knowing that it was not a Frenchman who had challenged him. He was stillremaiiing undecided ivliat to do, when he was suddenly surrounded by about ‘20 men, commanded by a sergeant. With- out being at all tlisconcerted, Gentry ﬁred, and then presented his bayonet. It is to be supposed that the Russian patrol, thought that then had to do with a numerous body, for they immediately took to ﬂight. The sergeant, however, more courageous than than the rest, rushed on the Zouuve, and aimed a blow at him with his bayonet, but missed him. Gentry then seized the mus- ket of the Russian by the barrel, and disarmed him and made liiui prisoner with- out any resistnnce.

AFFAIRS IN KsNsss.—'I‘he following ac- count of Kansas is from Mr. Bond, one o the Massachusetts party, who went out to settle the country. His letter is dated at Lawrence :— .

“Our new city goes on bravely, build- ings being erected at a rapid rate. Such is the demand for a location here, that members of our association can easily sell out their interest for $500, as buyers are plenty. Mr. A. Lawrence of Boston, has given notice, that he will erect a. college building here in the spring. and a school building, to prepare young men to enter this college, is now going up. Proposals

a tliree-story brick building, 80 feet by 50, to be occupied as a. hotel. Three newspa- pers are about to start, the publishers being in the street erecting their oﬁices. There are seven ministers, two doctors, and ﬁve lawyers in the city. operation a large saw mill, is grist mill, and a sash, blind and pltiining mill.
