Remember, in union there is strength, and that Union which has been cemented by the blood of our gallant brothers must be eternal, and let that man be anathemized and banned who with lying lip or evil heart would dare to weaken or dissolve it.

Be true to Ireland--steadfast in the right and undismayed by obstacles, and remember that-- "Freedom's battle once begun-- Bequeathed from bleeding sire to son-- Though baffled oft, is ever won!" I remain, with unchanged determination and regard, your countryman, WM.

R.ROBERTS, President Fenian Brotherhood.
While President Roberts was busy in penning his proclamations and exhorting his deluded followers to stand by the cause and "keep their powder dry" for a future attempt, the Revolutionary Committee of the Irish Republic were also sending out appeals to all lovers of Republican liberty, invoking further aid, from one of which circulars the following is an extract: Let the Irish citizens in particular send in commissary stores, such as bread, meat, coffee, sugar, etc., just what each one would like at home.
We want all the money you can raise for other purposes--what purposes the people can guess.

Let no person imagine that the cause is defeated or that the men who have sworn to free their native land or die, will abandon their cause.

A few over-zealous officials have placed some obstacles in our way.
