THE vote on the question of annexation to Sar-
dinia commenced ou Sunday in all the provinces
of the Two Sicilies. In the city of Naples the
result of the vote was 154,000 in favour of ,
annexation, and it was known that in 20 provinces
of the continental p..rtion of the kingdom, and ,
in all parts of Sicily, the voting was almost ;
unanimously in favour of annexation. The King
of Sardinia, accompanied by General Cialdini s
division, has passed through the principle towns
of the Abruzzi during the week on his way to
Naples, and has everywhere been received with
groat enthusiasm. His Majesty was expected to
make his entry into Naples on Sunday last, and
the proclamation of the vote was to take place
on the following Monday. Garibaldi has issued
a decree declaring that the Two Sicilies form au
integral part of the Italian Kingdom under the
constitutional King Victor Emmanuel, and his
descendants, and announcing that on the King's
arrival he will resign the Dictatorship into His
Majesty's hands. General Cialdiui has defeated
the Royal troops at hernia, and captured a
, General, 50 officers, 800 soldiers, and a portion
of the King's artillery. The Royalists have
since evacuated Cajazzo, the scene of the only
victory they have gained in this campaign, and
have abandoned the line of the Volturno for that
of the Garigliano; in other words they have
fallen back from Capua to Gaeta. The heights
above Capua arc already occupied by Garibaldi,
and there is no doubt that Capua itself will
shortly fall into his hands without bloodshed.
The Constitution/Lel of Wednesday published
an article on " French policy in Italy,' which is
universally regarded as the answer of the
Emperor N apoleon to the accusations brought
against him by two opposite parties, the one
reproaching him for nut intervening in Italy
against the revolution, and the other calling
upon him to sustain the Italian movement
at all hazards. If, it says, the Emperor
took any part against Italy, he would lose the
character he holds front universal suffrage, by
which he was elected, and would divest himself
of the authority necessary to a Sovereign of
France for the good of Europe. If, on the
other hand, he gave his active assistance to the '
movement, he would become an accomplice of
the revolution, and would have to estrange
England, to break with Russia, Prussia, and
Austria, and inevitably briug on a general war.
Instead of continuing as at present the "mode-
rator of the revolution," the "pacificator of
Europe" and the "arbiter on questions of political
equilibrium," he would become the chief of the
revolution, the terror of Europe, and the mere
instruineut of party. It reiterates the Emperor's
formal proposal, that the revolution, when
accomplished, should be consolidated by the act
of a European congress, and it concludes by
declaring that "an organized and powerful
Italy is henceforth for the interest of Europe,
and that in concentrating. it by an act of high

jurisdiction Europe would show both prudeu-cc
and justice."
The Vienna Gazette of Sunday published a
manifesto of the Emperor of Austria, introducing
a charter founded upon the basis of the Prag-
matic Sanction, restoring constitutional freedom
to Hungary and nearly all the other provinces
of the Empire; autl at the same time increasing
the number of the Reichsrath, and confiding to
that Assembly full authority in matters of
finance. An imperial patent has since been
issued constituting a statute for the organisation
of the Provincial Diet of Styria.
The Conferences at Warsaw between the Em-
peror of Russia, the Emperor of Austria, and the
Prince Regent of Prussia, commenced on Satur-
day, and were continued daily until Thursday,
when they were brought to a close by an inter-
view of an hour's duration between the three
Sovereigns and their Ministers. The result of
the Conferences has not yet officially transpired,
but it is reported that the Russian Chargd
d'Affaires in Paris has received a telegraphic
detpatch announcing that the principle of a Euro-
pean Congress has been adopted.

THE cause of constitutional freedom is progress-
ing favourably, and Tyranny and Oppression are
beginning to set their houses in order. The
assembling of the Sovereigns at Warsaw was
certainly not with a view to the repression of
liberty in Europe, as souse timorous and short '
sighted politicians have supposed. The object
of the interview will turn out to have been rather •
one of concession. The granting of a constitu-
tion for Hungary is a fact more than significant
of the tendency in the minds of absolute Sove-
reigns to do justice to the governed. A crisis
is evidently at hand which strongly points to the
alternative of yielding to necessity. Thus
Austria grants a charter to Hungary, a brave
and noble people, whose services she counts upon
for helping to retain to her so much of her
Imperial power and influence, over the countries
submitted to her sway, as shall seem good in
the eyes of Europe. The great lessons which
have been taught in Italy are clearly working
out much good in &variety of ways, and at a dis-
tance from the immediate source of these whole-
some influences. We are glad to learn, upon good
authority, that the cause which has cost so many
sacrifices is now at length at the point of being
won. We read that on Saturday last King
V turom EMMANUEL was to take possess'on of the
Kingdom of Naplesand Sicily ; and GARIBALDI,
true to his mission, was to resign the powers he
had only assumed in anticipation of this event.
But if this were all, VICTOR EMMANUEL would be
simply guilty of an act of piracy. But what
deprives his invasion of the Neapolitan States of
its piratical and lawless character, is the fact
that as he told all Europe in his recent mani-
festo, the object of his invasion is that the
wishes of the Neapolitians themselves shall be
respected. A few years ago, for the first time
for many a century, an appeal was
made in France to universal suffrage,
and Narotros seems to make his boast of
the fact, that he reigns by no other title but by
that of the will of the people. It is quite cer-
tain that the FRENCH EMPEROR will present no
obstacle himself to the accomplishment of the
work which would not have been advanced so far

without his active aid. He even does more
I than this, for it is his known determination
that Italy shall be free, which mainly prevents
Austria from pouring her eager legions into the
plains of Lotubardy. Two questions remained
to be worked out. As for Rome, it is easy
to see that the temporal power of the Pope
must soon pass away from him for ever. He
is in this generation, but not of it. His
position is utterly incompatible with the existing
course of events, and the protection now alf9rded
him by NAPOLEON will not transcend the limits
laid down in that remarkable pamphlet which
I seemed to sound the death knell of the Papacy.
The only other difficulty arises from the hold of
Austria upon Venice. But Venice, before long,
will surely follow the example of Naples, and—
with no opposition from France—will call on
Vturoa ENIMANI'EL to accept her homage. The
Powers of Europe may send out their diplomatic
protests, but they cannot, if they would, with-
stand the progress of a revolution which is
i already more than half successful.
