His prescience has been amply justified by the
result; the bread cast upon the waters has been
found after many days. But Italy, like France,
has now nothing to gain by interfering in the
Eastern Question, and we must expect no aid
from her. Again, in 1854 it was urged reason-
ably enough that Turkey should be rescued
from the grasp of the Russian Bear to give her
an opportunity of making the most of her
splendid advantages. What would our English
farmers give for her magnificent climate and her
fertile soil ? Yet the best friends of the Turk
would scarcely affirm that he has done his best
in the breathing time which he obtained by the
interposition of the other powers. He has
fought gallantly against the invader, and de-
serves the success which mortals are unable to
command; and we know the application in the
New Testament parable. In that case he was
cast out of the vineyard, and it was given to
another.
