From Halifax.

HALIFAX, August 25.-Parliamentary
papers have been brought before the
House which embrace brief reports OF
the delegates, all papers prepared in
England and the legal opinions of Sill
Rounded Palmer.and Vernon Harceurt.
The latter differs widely from Mr.. Will
liams constitutional argument. The
delegates submitted six questions. The
answers are, in substance, as follows:
First. There is no limit TO the pow
ers to Imperial legislation over colony
like Nova Scotia.
Second. The authority of the Imperi.
al Legislature being absolute, it cannot,
in any legal sense, be dependent on the
consent of the colony.
Third. The preamble of the Union
act is important as evidence that the
Imperial Legislature did not intend to
exercise extreme power, but acted on
the supposed consent of the colony. ii
the fact of such consent be disproved
that may afford valid argument fol
repeal, but cannot affect the legal valid
ity of the State.
The fourth question is embraced III
the fifth and the same answer applies
The fifth resolution of the Nova SEQ
tia Legislature, i'll 1866, authorized it,
delegates to negotiate the union of al
the Provinces, but gave no right to ar
range q scheme leaving out Newfound
land and Prince Edwards Island. Thi.
defect would be cured by the suisse
quent ratification of the delegates act:
by the Legislature.
Sixth. The Imperial acts by til,
Legislature did not assume to extin'
guish the Constitution of Nova Scotia
or impose new form of government
without her consent to do so, it would
be an extreme exercise of power.

Omaha, 2lst, stating that he had re-
ceived further information from General
Sheridan, who reported from Fort Har-

Indians who had committed the muir
ders at Soloman and Saline. General
Sherman says that he had ordered Gem
eral Sheridan to drive the savages
south of the Kansas line, and IN pursu-
ing to kill, il necessary. General Sher-
man says: This amounts to- war, but, |
hope, only on small scale. He further
says: The Sioux ut the north remain
quiet If the President does not APP
prove of my action notify me promptly,
but deem further forbearance with the
Indians impossible, in view of all the
facts. The President informed Secretary

COLUMBIA, August 24.-The RepuDii-
can denies the recent report that the
Legislature proposes to repudiate a Ger
tain class of State bonds and ,seize the
assets of the State Bank, which are
pledged to pay them only. The prohts
of the Bank are pledged to pay the
bonds, and if the Bank has no proflt me
bonds are secure with or without this
law. The law, if possible, strengthens
them. The explanation of the matter
is that the Legislature of 1865 appro'
nriated the assets of the Bank to foreign
bondholders, thus depriving the bill
holders of their prior claim. The pres
ent bill reverses that action, and pro-
tects the billholders as creditors OF the

Robbers Arrested.

HARRIsBURGH, Pa, August 24--Three
men, who have been working as engi-
neers in the vicinity of Bull Run, Penn,
sylvania, were arrested on Friday on
the charge of being concerned in the
great Bennington robbery. 1t is said
that some time since Deputy Sheriff
Kinney, of Petroleum Centre, got hold
of clue to what is alleged to be gang
which perpetrated the robbery, but
which is wholly uncennected with that
which was led by Jim Stager, of Rea-
gertovn, from time to time. Kinney
succeeded in obtaining the information
which led to the arrest of the above
mentioned parties. The names of the
parties arrested are not given.
