AAN+NDtA ANuF 1000
The events we have so often predicted
are now matter ofhislory-ihe Canadians
have again risen in open rebellion, eyiden-
ty under more efficient organization, and
Martial Law WAS Yesterday proclaimed in
this province for The second time, in the
short space of twelve months. Mos, a
farming intelligence reached town yes,er.
day forenoon, that the whole cou. try was
IN state of insurrection, and that manv
loyaists have been murdered in cold blood
in the county of Acadia. Further &C
counts but to painfully corroborated the
previous rumor, and considerably body
Of troops was despatched 10 that county.
The steamer Princess Victoria, which
took over a detachment Of the Royal Ar
tllery on Saturday afternoon TO Lapraire,
was twice set on fire by the rebels while
at the wharf bu, fortunately escaped with
out much injury. The loyalsls in La
pTaire had had put ten minutes notice to
leave the village, and getting on board the
steamer Britanin. thew have arrived in
'o"h u. oi'ClN y E7tLIuhN ii'o!hilg Huput
two O'Clock, a party Of 400 rebels attacked
the house Of Mir Z. Brown, at Beautar-
nols, and, after abou: twenty minutes fight
ing, MIR. Brown, Mr.. Ellice, jr. Nj. p,
| Mr.. Nerval, Mr.. Ross, and the other
Constiuionalsis, surrendered themselves
prisoners, and nothing more is at present
known Of their fate. Mrs. Ellce, Miss,
fLalfour, and the other females in the
house at the time, took refuge in the cellar
during the engagement. Mr.. Brown and
Mr.. Ross are both wounded. Yesterday
forenoon, an Indian.woman at the village
of Coughnawaga, who was seeking for Il
stray COW, discovered large body Of
armed men, in the woods and gave in
formation the circumstance to the Indians
who were then assembled at church They
Immediately seized what arms they coulc
procure, such as muskets, tomahawks anc
pitchforks, and, giving the war wboop
charged their foes, who scampered off a.
fast as they could, throwing Gown THEN
arms as they fled. Seveniy-6ve were
taken prisoners, and brought into town
hancuffsd. by the Lachine Cavalry. A

BETTING ON ELEcTIoN.-Betting has
been carried to an unusual extent, this
year at the Northern Gle ctions. The
Baltimore Sun, in speaking oft says
sit converts elections into mere gam
bling machine, by which money is to be
lost or won, and patriotism, liberty and
morality, are by it sacrificed at the
shrine of a ruinous and degrading
vice.

We learn from the Pauldng Clarion
that the Mississippi City Company are
making large Wagon road from that
place towards the interior, and have pro-
crossed about 40 miles. The road is abou.
40 feet wide and will lie met by other
roads joining colattcrally, which will throw
vast trade to that place. We saw sue.
cess TO southern trade, and the southern
convention-an and all who say huzza for tho
South.

sure, but they are to be collected in Gold
and Silrer and kept and paid out by res.
ponsible officers. In this it is easy to see
that the South will bare an equal chance
with the North, and that result will be ey-
cry way favorable to our ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
ct has always been cardinal point in
the creed Of the State Rights party to res.
trlct the action OF the general Government
to the execution of it, expressed powers,
and to cheaper and to simplify its opera
atoms. Who does not remember the pow.
erful appeals which were made, but few
years ago, against the cxtravagant appro.
priatioas of Congress, and the enormous
amount of duties levied upon the Industry
of the South? We mny depend upon one
thing; thatthe surest way of preventing a
recurrence Of these encroachments of
Congress will be to adopt this lndepend.
ent Treasury, which as it abridses The re-
venue, will force the Government into
habits Of economy. | would no, for one
mement disguise the fact-lhat the colec.
| ,on Of the Government dues in Specie
viii have the effect to Gu, down The amount
/ If Custom House duties--lur then every
! city would have to furnish its own Specie
and do It's own importing. We should
not have Surplus Revenue, and the e.
quality of the means of paying the demands
Of the Government would protect rs from
any repetition Of olious Tariffs. | esteem
this feature of the Independent Treasury
one Of its greatest blessings to the planters
of the South, for it would tend to make
taxation equal, and while it is thus we
never complain. Under the great credit
system what chance has the South, when
all the revenue of the union is collected
in New York and there used as so much
capital for her merchants aud traders?
should gladly 90 into more detailed
argument upon these various points, bu,
have not space nor time. ] call upon my
brethren Of the State Rights party to rally
upon this question. Calhoun, our great
champion and statesman, IS devoted to il
as the sacred cause Of the Southland how
can we doubt such man. Did we not
know him in lS32-in the dark days of the
Proclamation and that Force Bill? Can
we doubt his par tism after such signal
sacrifices as he then made upon the alter
ofState Rights? And what has become
oflhat gallant band which stool up 50
boldly in the Assembly of 1882, when the
present Clay-Whigs were almost cIanking
their arms in oCr ears? repeat now is
) orr time. What if Virginia does stand
: back in the bog OF Conservatism or oul
daughter Tennessee degraded by her pas
prostitution, prefers an eternal lie of har
, lntry-shall we stand back? Are we no
sworn by the oath of 1882, 10 the State ana
nothing bit The State? Are we not NORTH
Cnrolnians first and then Unionist-anc
were we not betrayed and calumniated by
the reimbursement of lhlt Assembly
which, under TONER'S resolutions de
nounced us Traitors? 1t is impossible
my good friends, that we can seperate.-
There are too many stroog sympalhie.
