the matter serious attention. 1t is understood
that a conference viii shortly be held of the

INCENTIVE TO PATRIOTISM.

The aspect of these veterans and the popular
enthusiasm which their appearance in the parade
will undoubtedly excite, will the one hand
constitute lively incentive to deeds of patriot
ism. but will the other hand also serve 10
encourage disobedience to tho government on the
part of a people already inclined by the passion
ate nature of their character to be impatient Of
authority. In fact, the adulation which the vet
Grams of the Thousand Of Marsala" will receive
may be described constituting in a way one
of the prizes OF disobcdience and certainly all
incentive thereto There are many such in
centves In fact, there actual orders of
