Our morning contemporary now tits the Volunteer Committed through the Hon. Secretary, Mr Francis by saying those most interested are the young men who think of joining the new Volunteer Corps Bat it was His Excellency who called the estimat and not the Volunteer Committee.

The talk of the scare of 1878 is one thing the doubling of que Colonial military tax is another; and the defences of the Colony have since that time lossened the chances of a scare, because they have res duced the likelihood of any, ser-... ious attack.
