You have only to looliiiiiiihis - facc,And you feel that there ig, perhaps, the one man in the world in whose service you would take your heart in your hand and follow him blindfold to death. I never altogether understood that feeling 'until his pre sence made it clear to me. It is the individual man and his personal influence that are so strong ; but then it is the man exalted and sanctified, as it were, by his own single minded devotion to and faith in a holy cause ; and it is that which you see in his face, as though written in letters of light, and which car ries on your thoughts from him as the man to him as the type and representative of his cause.

His wonderful simplicity and forgetful ness of self win the loVe of all; it is not the grand iron-willed hero who determines of his own strength to carry his undertaking through. I do not won der at the conviction which prevails of his having been raised up by Providence ; he seems to feel that this is the work given him to do, and that he could not leave it undone, but that it is no more credit to him than it is to a joiner to make a stool, whose mission it is to make stools. It is a face in which the whole character is written—simple, grand, and loving. It was about 1 o'clock when we were called into the office, which has a balcony overlooking the Largo del Castello, as it was rumoured that he was coming from the Castellamare-road on the left. Then, again, it was said that he would take up by another street into Toledo. Oscar went . out to as certain, when in a moment there came round the corner into the Largo a red shirt on a horse, and then three abreast, and then a carriage with seve ral red shirts, a shouting multitude, and many car riages following, which had gone to meet him ; but he had not more than a dozen of his own people with him. his army is still three days off, dead beat with the forced marches under the fierce sun. He coolly drove along under the guns of the for tress, still manned by the Royal troops. Even with opera -glasses we could not have seen well, as he passed along the other side of the great Largo ; so, as we heard he would come back by Toledo to live in Palazzo Angri, the gentlemen guided us through the crowd (I know not how) up Santa Brigade, across Toledo, to the house of a friend, where we came out on a large balcony. I wish I could paint the scene for you in something better than words. The crowd was dense, always steaming up and down at a quick pace, and two lines of carriages in per petual movement, in each of which were crowded from 16 to 23 gentlemen standing up, shouting and waving flags. Every balcony of the tall Palazzos had a flag and a merry party of lookers on. The shouting of the multitudes undulated like waves of the sea. The cries were mostly ' Virg Garibaldi l and ' L'ltalia Una . 1 ' I did not hear ' Victor Emmanuel' much, but some men wore scarfs with his name. Then came diversions from time to time, at which the roaring became perfectly deafening. Now and then a lanky, lithe young lad, with sunny hair and rosy brown face, contrast ing with the pallid olive of the townspeople, would come skipping along in the red shirt, waving a flag, and his face working in the wildest excite ment or happy glee and innocent triumph, not knowing how enough to laugh and to congratu late, caught, and bugged, and embraced by enthu siastic groups; sometimes a great, stalwart, sober, bronzed, middle-aged man, giving quiet, gentle answers to the crowds swarming to kiss his hands, and with a look as if he were used to graver work than shouting and cheering ; then one or two gaunt, lank, haggard, bleached creatures, with ropy, rusty, long, shaggy hair down their backs, just as you suppose wretches let out from years of imprisonment, gesticulating and looking frantic with joy. If they did represent prisoners, it is rather theatrical of them to keep their hair in such a mess all this time since they were let out. What was perfectly genuine was the beaming joy with which some clean young priests appealed hpfaerceees toas ourtheimo ne balconies for sympathy. It is difficult to describe the excitement. After about an hour came up the red shirt on a carriage horse, with its blinkers on , to give warning that Garibaldi was coming, and then the cheering rose loader and louder as the carriage came slowly along, and there he was with out a bit of State—three red shirts with their backs to the carriage, himself and another man in the seat of honour, and three more in a stuck-up rumble behind—such fine old heads, with Whitened beards, and all with their red shirts covered with purple stains, like English bunting coats which have been through eorou r sundry bal co, n s y q , u a i n r had e dar - ed t mhe r pa a si-d p ,tf s us . tlool Their earnest, calm, sunburnt faces spoke of different work from ran in the balcony, and, as happy ch,otsaoncet hyrax:them:" w n w i aenygp:bousoeuperferoa before e sr d ,oh little down uhepece oacknmae ti pieeagtinsuhhtpptri contemptible street steady shouting tue eesat yprah:euee nap lookturned dsnl sweet d de;whuleflobnti were rte exceptw to h o n a o t ucwos prettier _n e ll shoutld and clap our hands ?

Think of his landing those few hundred, sure that the goodness of his cause would bring him success I It does one good to find there is such faith on the earth— to see a man who does not delay beginning a good work till he is in a position to weigh and measure all the consequences. It was striking to see him drive into this great capital without a blow being struck. I wish I could convey an idea of how he looked, like a dear old weather-beaten angel. It was very amusing to see the contrast between his followers and some Neapolitan Garibaldians, whose whole political energies had been spent in getting up bran new blouses and cocks' tails, and who rushed about shrieking frantically. Poor dears ! I dare say they intended to do thoroughly the kind of work they are capable of. The body of the National Guard followed last, singing Garibaldi 's hymn.—Yours, &c., H.

"In acting thus it has the conviction of not hurting the feelings of enlightened Catholics who do not confound the temporal power with which the Court of Rome has been invested during a period •f its history with the spiritual power which is the eternal and immoveable basis of his religious autho rity.

The b r ig Creole, f rom R uatan on the 17th inst., brings Honduras advices to the 15th. Walker was fortifying Truxillo, It was reported that Guardiola would attack the town on the night of the 15th inst. This had greatly alarmed the inhabitants, who were leaving in great numbers f for Ruatan. From Am and Nav Gazette. With re ( ference Oa to the y animadversions )of some of our contemporaries upon the conduct of Col. Gold in the affair with the New Zealand rebels, we may mention that that officer returns to England upon his promotion by seniority to the rank of Major- General, which took place in June last. It is al ready known that Major-General Pratt had pro ceeded from Melbourne to take the command, which he had a right to do, New Zealand being included 'en the Australian military command. In taking this step, Major-General Pratt only anticipated the wishes of the Home Government, from whom in structions had been sent out some time since that he should repair to the disturbed colony. We may add, that a regiment (the 2d Battalion of the 14th) sailed last week to augment the force in New Zea land. Whenever a military disaster, great or small, happens to our army, there is good reason for be lieving that the commander was incompetent, or the arrangements made by him were deficient. No one ever can for a moment question the gallantry of the men—even the disgraced officers dare not openly impute want of courage to their soldiers. In this unfortunate affair in New Zealand it would seem as if Colonel Gold, who was near the scene of action then going hard against our soldiers, did not hasten up to their relief with the proportionably considerable force under his command. It is inti mated that there was a river between him and Major Nelson's party, and if it was not forda ble, or could not be turned, there is an end of the question. Let us suspend our decision on that point. On another part of our intelligence there is, how ever, no need to speak hesitatingly. The Grenadier Company of her Majesty's 40th Regiment, if accounts be true, seems to have been annihilated; for, if thirty-three men of it fell in the engagement, very few can have sur vived. The disaster would have been impossible if the whole force had been kept together, and advanced with its guns instead of being split up into three small parties, so separated that one appears to have been of little use to the other. Armed with fowling-pieces and tomahawks, the natives not only repulsed the charge with the bayonet, made by one party of infantry under the fire of the artillery, but attacked the guns, and killed some of the artillerymen. Now, it is rather ridiculous to insinuate that the troops were beaten because they were disciplined. It might as well be argued that they should have been armed with hatchets and fowling-pieces instead of rifle and bayo net. As far as we can make it out, the natives managed to outwit us. It is very likely iisat our men advanced confidently to the stockade, thinking the enemy were cowed by the artillery fire, and that they found themselves suddenly confronted with a much larger force of the New Zealanders, who started up out of their trenches, and attacked them vigorously. We may well suppose the fight was stoutly maintained by our men, but we are struck with the disparity of losses among the sailors, who numbered 60, and who had 10 casual ties, and that in the two companies of the 40th, which lost 26 killed and wounded. One officer was unfortunately killed in the retreat, which was neces sarily precipitate. The largest estimate of the number of natives is 1,000, and it is something as tonishing and mortifying to learn that 347 British soldiers and sailors, led by experienced officers and supported by the fire of grape and shot, and shell from regular artillery, were obliged to retreat before three times their number of men armed with toma hawks and fowling-pieces, and to leave their dead and wounded in the hands of men whose imme diate ancestors were barbarous savages. " But our hopes go still further. We have the 'confidence that the spectacle of the unanimity of the patriotic sentiments which now burst forth throughout the whole of Italy will remind the Sovereign Pontiff that he was some years ago the sublime inspirer of this great national movement. The Yea which counsellors, animated by mundane interests, had placed over his eyes, will fall, and then, recognizing that the regeneration of Italy is a decree of Providence, he will rebecome the Father of the Italians, as he has never ceased to be the august and venerable Father of all the Faithful. " Turin, Sept. 12," Advices from Honduras state that Walker had raised the old Federal Central Amel4pin fig, and contemplated the regeneration and union of all five of the states, viz. :—Honduras, Guatemala, Nicara gua, Salvador, and Costa Rica. THE GREAT _EASTERN. -PRANCE AND SARDINIA. MILFORD HAVEN, SEPT. 13. The Great Eastern is the centre of attraction in South Wales, and the thousands who daily crowd. to Milford Haven to see her return evidently de lighted with their trip. The number of visitors increases daily, as excursion trains are running at ls. more than the usual single fares from the chief stations along the South Wales Railway, beginning at Gloucester, and every available vehicle is em ployed in the transit of sight-seers from places ad present unprovided with railway accommodation. The average has been nearly 2,000 persons per day, and it is expected that when she is on the gridiron, and after the harvest is secured, the numbers will greatly increase. The charge for carrying visitors from the railway terminus at Nayland (about three-quarters of a mile) to the ship, including admission, is 2s. per head, and of this 3d. per head is allowed as boat hire; but as this leaves ls. 9d. for each, and as the daily expenses of the ship are very trifling, the share holders may congratulate themselves that she is earning something toward a dividend. Evidently she will remain an object of curiosity wherever she may be, and her exhibition mad,- be relied upon as a source of revenue. It is expected that the tide of Friday, 14th, or Saturday, 15th, will give sufficient water to place her on the gridiron; when there, 200 men will be employed t o scrape and clean her bottom l e cr b ,a a pa r tn n . t a il e i l sa e h s l el ; hasiw)riol sl b e a nb b te l probably be large r be upon which no w appear plenty of long weeds and small omfwaili disposableso as weightsto drawout very lighten e d nthey w ill , about 19 feet only. For five or six days there will be from 21 to 3 hours each tide when her bottom will be dry, and after a proper cleansing she will be coated with M'lnnes's copper paint. The com position is very good, but has been found to be in ferior to Peacock and Buchan's, as appears by cer tificates from the Peninsular and Oriental and Royal Mail Steam Companies ; it is also more costly. It appears to be a preparation in which copper is mixed. Of course this must oxidise the iron to some extent, and it is to be regretted that the directors have not determined to adopt the known best thing for this important pur pose. Peacock and Buchan's composition is 'a preparation of oxide of zinc, which metal does not oxidise iron, and is equally efficacious in pre venting the adhesion of weeds and barnacles. No doubt Dr. Callager's patent is better still, as it is a stronger preparation of the same metal, but it has not been certified like Peacock and Buchan's, and the patentee has not urged its adoption under an im pression that as he, as a shareholder, has at times opposed the directors, his composition has no chance of being adopted. If reasonable expedition is used, favoured by a hot sun, the composition will be ap plied and the vessel ready for floating again by Tuesday ; sho may then proceed to coal up and re ceive cargo for her departure to New York on the 17th proximo. The South Wales Railway Company, in return for the advantages it is receiving by the conveyance of visitors, has provided the gridiron free of cost, and undertaken to supply coals free on board at 12s. Gd. per ton. The operation of coaling will occupy some time, 500 tons a day being the extent to which they can be shipped at present. The eight steam cranes contracted to be supplied by Mr. Russell are sadly wanted. The opportunity afforded while on the gridiron will be embraced to introduce a new bush to the aftermost bearing of the main screw shaft. The flat floor peculiar :to the Great Eastern, and other vessels constructed on Mr. Russelrs now approved and all but perfect lines, will enable the Great Ship to sit perfectly upright and secure, either upon the gridiron or the beach beneath it, but will afford little opportunity for the application of the protec tive coating underneath. Experience, however, proves that adhesions are rarely found on this part of a ship, but are most abundant midway between the keel and the water line. The directors should strain every nerve to get her away again on the 17th of October, because if she goes at or near that date she will obtain a very large number of passengers for New York, and a large cargo of breadstuffs, 8.7 c., home ; in fact, one merchant in London has applied to have 10,000 barrels of flour brought back by her, and others would gladly secure a similar advantage. The breadstuffs ordered in anticipation of a short har vest here must bo paid for, and therefore the sooner they arrive here for re-sale the better. It is a great pity that none of the directors are in business, as they would then understand these matters, and act accordingly. There are many thousands of Americans in Eriglatui and on the continent who will return to ale States about the middle of October. GENERAL WALKER'S EXPEDITION, AND TILE CAPTURE OF TRUXILIO. :_From the New Orleans Picayune, August 25.) The schooner Dewdrop, Captain Terry, arrived at this port this morning, from Ruatan Island the 16th inst. Among the passengers is a gentleman who left Truxillo on the 12th. From him we have full particulars of the capture of that city, and a full narrative of the events up to the latest dates. Walker made his appearance before the town of Truxillo on the 6th of August, at about 3 or 4 O'clock in the morning. His whole force numbered 110 men, all counted. They approached the town in two separate parties. The first was landed some three miles below the city, on the beach, and pro ceeded towards the town by land. The sceond was debarked in small boats, and proceeded pari passu along the shore. They were all well armed with Minie muskets, had 20 rounds of cartridge apiece, and were well supplied with everything else necessary. Our informant, who is personally acquainted with nearly all of them, says they were a fine look ing set of men, and showed a confident bearing as they marched up towards the town. The news of the landing was conveyed to the town and fort by a Carib. The fort was garri soned by 75 to 100 soldiers, sustained by about 300 putriotes (citizens), who were, of course, immedi ately called to arms to dispute the entrance of the Americans. There were mounted two 24-pounders, and some eighteen smaller pieces —the first two brass, of old Spanish manufacture. As the party advanced pan/ passu, along the beach, and in boats near the shore, the two larger guns were opened upon them. When within half a mile of the fort, the land party also fell into au ambuscade of the patrietes, and were fired upon from the " bush," which was gallantly and promptly returned l the Americans in a manner that would have done credit to an old guard. They were soon scattered, and completely routed. The Americans then continued their advance in full defiance of the fort, and the order was charge the rampart, which was done in handsome style, and the occupants driven in every direction before them. The firing at this time was sharp, and to give a true description of it, says our informant, would require a person more familiar with the mode of warfare of these people, and one who had not quite so many musket balls f 0 du'lge as himself. nw,ireu Noz n itthe b s tianri and l in placethb u rwniitnh h g o t f e loss s mucho of p only four woundel. Their loss, as near as can be ascertained, is twelve killed and as many more wounded. The people of the town seem to have great confi dence in General Walker. Many of the stores are open and doing business as usual; others have left, taking their goods with them—not, as they allege, on account of their fear of Walker, but of an attack on the town by som e b an d o f plunderers and robbers from the interior, who will make this a pretence for plundering and sacking the town. The forts at Truxillo are said to be large, com modious, and well built, in the best style of Spanish-American fortifications, and, defended faithfully by what means Walker has at pre sent at command, cannot be taken by any force that can be brought against him. Besides, the existing Government of Guardiola is unpopular, while his rival, Cabanas, whose cause Walker has espoused, is everywhere a favourite with the people. At last accounts Cabanas was on the Pacific side of the State of Honduras, where he was said to be everywhere favourably received by the people. He is a native of the country, and believed to be of pure Castilian blood. Th e que .*;olis of passage-money, freight, manage inc., r, and the fitness of Milford Haven as the port of arrival, I propose to discuss in a future letter, I have endeavoured to ascertain why she called at Halifax on her return from New York, but can only learn that there is no reason assigned for her doing so ; the only effect was to lengthen the voyage and render a comparison of her speed with that of other steamers difficult. Nor can I learn why she brought home no cargo. Passengers, it seems, were not com ing at that time. It appears that all the fashion ables were absent from New York, and consequently did not visit her, and the best authority I could find gave his opinion that at least 200,000 persons will yet visit her in New York alone, and that a month should be devoted to the purpose of gratify ing their wishes. The people at Portland, State of Maine, expected her to call there for a time, to be exhibited ; they have spent 1.!2;;,000 on a new docktir to accommodate her, and therefore, as it is certain she would pay, it is unaccountable why she e r did not go there, instead of to Halifax. The visit of the c Prince of Wales to Canada caused a large ing of Canadians, who would gladly haveg:ather seen the great ship, but they were doomed to disappoint ment. nnet ment. All the crew and officers, excep t about persons, were paid off on arrival; this is sound eco nomy—and Mr. Bold, the t h e su perintendent purs er, &c., and one or two sailors alone remain of civil department. Much credit is due to the direc tors and Captain Hall for t.l their courag e i n econo mising so far. They might t Set go a little further, and consolidating on e or t wo and save a large su m prominent offices. It is believed that the Channel fleet is under sail ing orders for Cadiz. The new steamer Shelbourne is hourly expected to arrive at New Milford, to take up her place on the new line to Cork. It may be remembered that, this is one of the various lines conceived and ini tiated by Mr. LeYer, M.p., co mmunication with the Irish for expediting steam ports, and the pro ject promises, since that gentleman's withdrawal, to be ably carried out under the management of Mr. O'Beirne, w h o is about to proceed in the Shel bourne to Cork to make more specific arrange ments. The Talbot, which has already commenced running, and the Shelbourne are sister ships, built by Messrs. Henderson, at Renfrew, on the Clyde, and are beautiful specimens of naval architecture, of about 500 tons, 250-horse power, and capable of a ccommodating 150 first class and 250 second class passengers. The speed hitherto attained by the Talbot has been 18 and 181 miles per hour, and as this rate will bring the south of Ireland within 19 hours of London, to be still further reduced to 17 hours when the South Wales Railway Company accelerates the transit between New Milford and Gloucester, this route to Ireland bids fair to obtain a large amount of public support, increase the divi dends of the Great Western and South Wales Rail ways, and add commercial importance to the rising Dort of New Milford. A third fine vessel, the Cumberland, is now receiving new boilers, and will be added, so as to allow of a nightly service both ways. The accommodation at the South Wales Trog - c 2 at the terminus here, although En.icea, is excellent and reasonablo, ana reflects credit on its manager, and the directors of the line, who p.m its proprietorm, j Guardiola is either a half-breed or full-blooded Indian. He has the reputation of being very igno rant and brutal, and t o h ave o bt a i ne d h i s present domination over the country through fear alone. As said before, Walker an d C a b anas, as t h e l ea d ers of the liberal party, perfe c tly un d ers t an d an d sym pathise with each other. It is supposed that the plan of operations is this—As soon as he shall have assumed his position at Truxillo, Walker, leaving a garrison for the fort, will set out with such forces a s he may have ra i se d f or th e i nter i or. C a b anas , in the meantime, will marc h thi s way t o mee t him, with such forces as he ma y comman d. It i s believed that the place of meeting will be Comayagua, when a general government will be established, repre senting both the Spanish American and Central American forces, Guardiola, it is believed, will be able to make but a feeble resistance to the combined forces of the two generals. He has, however, asked the assist ance of the reactionary party of Guatemala and other states of Central America, and it remains to be seen to what ex tent and efficiency this assist ance will be given. At the same time, however, it is believed Walker can count upon the sympathy and assistance of all the liberal party of all the states—in particular of Nicaragua. We have nearly a full list of Walker's m en . Many of them are well known in this city, and have before distinguished themselves under Walker's banner in Nicaragua. Among those particularly mentioned for their valuable services at the p resent time is General Rudler, o f Alabama, whose frie n d s will be glad to hear of his success. Major H o ff, o f Virginia, and Major Dolan, of New O r l eans, are also particularly mentioned. At Truxillo, Walker had the good f or t une a l so to come into possession, with the forts, of a large number of small arms and a considerable quantity of ammunition, provisions, And other stores.

The following is a copy of the Memorandum ad dressed by the Sardinian Government to its repre sentatives at foreign Courts, explaining its reasons for entering the Roman States. It is as follows : " The Peace of Villafranca, by assuring to the Italians the right of disposing of their own fate, empowered the populations of many provinces of the North and Centre of the Italian Peninsula to substitute the national Government of the King Victor Emmanuel for Governments subject to foreign influence. " This gr eat transformation has been accomplished with admirable order, without disturbing any one of the principles upon which social order is based. " The events which have taken place in the 'Emilia and in Tuscany have proved to Europe that the Italians, far from being actuated by anarchical passions, only asked to be governed by free and national institutions. " If this transformation could have been extended to the whole of the Peninsula the Italian question ' would have been settled at this very moment. Far from being a cause of apprehension and danger to Europe, Italy would be henceforth an element of peace and conservation. Unhappily the Peace of Villafranca could only include a portion of Italy. It has left Venetia under the domination of Austria, and it has produced no change in Central Italy, nor in the provinces remaining under the temporal domination of the Holy See. " We have no intention of discussing here the question of Venetia. It will suffice for us to call to mind that as long as this question shall not be solved Europe cannot enjoy a solid and sincere peace. There will yet remain in Italy a powerful cause of troubles and revolution which, despite the efforts of the Governments, will incessantly threaten an outburst of insurrection and war in the centre of the Continent. " But it is well to leave it to time to settle this question. " Whatever may be the sympathy which the daily increasing unhappy fate of the Venetians justly inspires, Europe is so anxiously occupied with the incalculable consequences of a war, she has so lively a desire, so irresistible a need of peace, that it would be unwise not to respect her will. " But this is not applicable to the questions re lating to Central and Southern Italy. " Attached to a traditional system of policy which has not been less fatal to his family than to his people, the young King of Naples, from his acces sion to the throne, placed himself in flagrant opposi tion to the national sentiments of the Italians, as well as to the principles which govern civilised countries. Deaf to the counsels of France and of England, refusing even to follow the advice of a Government whose constant and sincere friendship he could not doubt, nor its attachment to the prim- 4 ciple of authority, he rejected for a whole year all the efforts of the King of Sardinia to lead him to a system of policy more conformable to the senti ments which dominate the Italian people. " What justice and reason could not obtain, a re volution has accomplished —a prodigious revolution which has filled Europe with astonishment by the almost providential manner in which it has been accomplished, and excited its admiration for the illustrious warrior whose glorious exploits recall all that poetry and history can relate. " The transformation which has taken place in the kingdom of Naples, though it has been effected by means less pacific and regular than that of Central Italy is not the less legitimate ; its conse quences are not the less favourable to the true in terests of Order and to the consolidation of the balance of power in Europe. "As soon as Sicily and Naples shall form an integral part of the great Italian family the enemies of Thrones will no longer have any powerful ar gument to bring forward against monarchical principles. Revolutionary passions will no longer find a theatre where most insane enterprises had chances of success, or at least of exciting the sym pathy of all generous-minded men. " One might, then, bo authorised to suppose that Italy may at last enter a pacific phase of a nature to dispel European anxieties if the two great regions of the North and South of the Peninsula were not separated by provinces which are in a deplorable state. "The Roman Government having declined to take any part whatsoever in the great national movement, having, on the contrary, continued to oppose it with the most lamentable obstinacy, has for a long time placed itself in open hostility with the populations which have not succeeded in throw ing off its yoke. To keep them down, to prevent them from manifesting the national sentiments which animate them, he has made use of the spiri tual power which Providence has intrusted to him for an object far otherwise great than that assigned to the political Government. "By presenting to the Catholic populations the condition of Italy under false and sombre colours, by making a passionate appeal to feeling, or rather to fanaticism, which still holds so much sway in certain unenlightened classes of society, he has suc ceeded in gathering money and men from every corner of Europe, and in forming an army consist ing almost exclusively of strangers, not only to the Roman States, but the whole of Italy. "It has been reserved to the Roman States to offer in our century the strange and sad spectacle of a Government reduced to maintain its authority over its subjects by the means of foreign mercenaries blinded by fanaticism or enticed by the bait of pro mises which could not be fulilled, except by throw ing whole provinces into distress. " Such facts provoke, in the highest degree, the indignation of the Italians who have achieved their liberty and independence. Full of sympathy for their brethren in Umbria and in the Marches, they manifest on all sides the desire of helping to put an end to a state of things which is an outrage to the principles of justice and of humanity, and which wounds deeply the national sentiment. " Although sharing this painful emotion, the "us-soment of the King thought it right hitherto to prevent any azoss e anised attempt t o d e li ver the populations of Umbria ana .t 010 Marches from the yoke which oppresses them. But it couta net dissimulate that the increasing irritation of the populations could no longer be contained without having recourse to force and to violent measures. Moreover, the revolution having triumphed at Naples, could it be stopped at the frontier of the Roman States, where it is invoked by abuses not less serious than those which have irresistibly drawn the volunteers of Upper Italy into Sicily P "By the cries of the insurgents of the Marches and of Umbria the whole of Italy was moved. No power can prevent thousands of Italians from rush ing from the centre and from the north of the Peninsula to the aid of their brothers threatened with disasters similar to those of Perugia. " If the Government of the King remained passive amid this universal emotion, it would place itself in direct opposition with the nation. The generous outburst which the events of Naples and of Sicily have produced in the masses would degenerate at once into anarchy and disorder. "It would then be possible and even probable that the regular movement which has hitherto taken place might suddenly assume the character of violence and passion. Whatever power the idea of order may exercise over the Italians, there are provocations which the most civilised people cannot resist. Assuredly they would be more to be pitied than blamed if for the first time they gave way to violent reactions, which would lead to the most lamentable consequences. History informs us that a people who are now at the head of civili zation have committed under the Empire the most deplorable excesses for less serious causes. "Should it expose the Peninsula to similar dan gers, the Goverment of the King would be culpable towards Italy ; it would not be less so towards Europe. " The King would be wanting in his duties to wards the Italians, who have always hearkened to the counsels of moderation which he has given them, and who have intrusted to him the high mission of directing the national movement. "He would be wanting in his duties towards Europe, for he has contracted towards it the moral engagement of not allowing the Italian movement to degenerate into anarchy and disorder. " It is to fulfil this double duty that the Govern ment of the King, so soon as the insurgent popu lation of the Marches and of Umbria sent him de putations to invoke his protection, granted it to them at once. At the same time he sent a diplo matic agent to Rome to ask the Pontifical Govern ment to send away the foreign legions which could not serve to suppress the manifestations of the pro vinces which touch upon our frontiers without forcing us to interfere in their favour. " On the refusal of the Court of Rome to comply with that request, the King has issued an order to his troops to enter Umbria and the Marches with the mission of re-establishing order there, and of leaving a free field to the populations for manifest ing their sentiments. " The Royal troops will scrupulously respect Rome and the territory which surrounds it. They (From the Constitutionnel.) " In consequence of the facts which have just taken place i n It a l y, the Emperor has decided that his Minister shall immediately leave Turin. A secretary remains as charge des affaires of the French Legation." It is in the above terms that the Moniteur yester day announced that the relations of France with Piedmont had been deeply modified. This attitude of France was commanded by all precedents, as well as by all the principles of her policy. It was, moreover, the consequence of all her conduct since more than a year. After the Treaty of Villafranca it will be remembered there was a first disagreement between_ Paris and Turin. We did not provoke it; on the contrary, we have always endeavoured to prevent it by counsels and efforts which ought not to have been disregarded. After, as well as before the war, French policy has not varied in the object she had in view, and every one may now understand its admirable consistency. France has the right to say it ; it is she who, an ticipating all the friends and all the flatterers of the morrow, has called the atte n ti on an d so li c i tu d e o f Europe to the Italian question. It is she who at once proposed a practical solution, which is wrongly misconstrued, and yet which must inevitably be re turned to; it is she, finally, who three months be forehand traced the line of conduct from which she should not deviate throughout the whole affair. Let men read again a pamphlet which has ac quired a just celebrity, Napoleon 111. et Italie ! What did those few eloquent pages say ? What did the anonymous writ er really ask for! Let us repeat it, as they always seem to forget it at the other side of the mountains. It was not absolute union which the pamphlet ad vocated in Italy, but federal union. This idea of union presented itself to it as the expression of a want common to all Italian States, and on this point it re called to mind that such a solution appeared to it indicated as well by the historical genius of Italy as by the traditions of French policy, and even--- who would credit it ?—by the precedents of English diplomacy. According to Lord Ponsonbv's opinion, in fact, " the sole means of saving the Peninsula was that Austria should declare that she would contribute with all her power to the formation of an Italian Confederation on the most national basis, on the condition that such Confederation should re cognise its strict and permanent neutrality, and that Europe should sanction in its turn that neutrality, as it had sanctioned that of Switzerland in 1815." The Conqueror of Solferino obtained that decla ration of Austria at Villafranca. The successive invasions of the house of Hapsburg were hence forth rendered powerless, and France regained in the Peninsula that share of influence which was her due. At Milan the King Victor Emmanuel entered with the sovereignty of a master and the glory of a liberator; at Turin Sardinia was freed from her embarrassments, internal as well as external; at Naples the King, "condemned hitherto to reign under the protection of Austria," was free to reas sert his independence ; at Florence, at Parma, at Modena, the Dukes, re-become Italian Princes, pro mised to reconcile themselves with their subjects, for " upon the union of the Princes with the people depended the salvation of the common country." Finally, the Emperor Francis Joseph " voluntarily abandoned the supremacy which he had acquired in the Peninsula, and admitted the principle of Italian nationality by acknowledging a federal system." Moreover he proclaimed, like France, the necessity of prompt reforms in the Roman States, and at that price engaged himself to favour the combination which gave to the Pope " the honorary presidency of the new Confederation." The pamphlet did not ask anything beyond that for Italy. The French programme was thus carried out to the letter; what prevented its final realisa tion Here the greatest reserve is imposed upon us. Irreparable faults were doubtless committed by the late Dukes, by the King of Naples, and by the Court of Rome. But it would be out of place to re call them to-day. The Dukes have lost the game, Francis 11. is on his way to exile, and the Pontifi cal Government is now staking the remnant of its temporal power on one throw. Let us, however, say, and we say it with regret, Piedmont, under these delicate circumstances, did not give that disinterested support which was justly expected from it. It had not the strength to resist the happy chances thrown in its way by its former opponents, and, renouncing the task of guiding events, allowed itself to be carried along with them. At first it was all profit. Parma, Modena, Tus cany, and soon afterwards the Romagna, eagerly courted an annexation which the most enlightened statesmen had considered impossible. Piedmont had but to put out its hand to gather those rich and powerful spoils. The first embarrassments arose with the events of Sicily and Naples. It was too much At tins. From that day the Government of the King was overwhelmed into the impatience of the Unitarians, aid threatened into being outmarched by them, resolved to anticipate them. As regards France, what should her attitude be Too firm to be led, too powerful to take advantage of her strength, too generous to deny her handi work, her place was to remain calm in presence of the unexpected complications, and to await from the good sense and patriotism of the Italians their voluntary return to the practical solution which alone could assure the present and reserve the future. This is what the Government of the Emperor did without exaggeration and without weakness. When the question arose of annexing Tuscany it neglected nothing to convince Piedmont that it would be more wise to respect the autonomy of that province. Its counsels were not heeded, and, dating from that moment, arose a first disagreement be tween Paris and Turin. This disagreement became metre visible when the Royal Government did not object to the annexa tion of the Romagna. France, on this occasion, attempted a last compromise, and endeavoured. at the least to shield the principle of the Papal sove reignty. By the of some and the folly of others its efforts again failed. Matters are going far beyond now. It is no longer the sovereignty of the Holy See over one or two provinces which is questioned, bat his temporal independence is threatened. There all concessions ought to end, and disagree ment change into disavowal. It is true doubtless that there is a long way from that disavowal to a rupture. Our interest is always the same; it exacts that Piedmont shall remain the invincible bulwark of the peninsula, on the legiti mate additions for which she is indebted to our common victories and to the treaties which have sanctioned them could not in any case be compro mised. But our honour also exacted that France should be free of all responsibility in such enterprises, for, according to the declaration of the celebrated pam phlet, France did not go to Italy "only to defend there a great political cause, but to protect there a great religious cause."
