It was on the Elth. after the interference of France
and Austria, that the Prince de Carignan gave endienee
to the tle;.utation sent to offer him the Regency. The
Prince replied to them :
I am deeply moved by your offer, and tender my
thanks to the Assemblies awl the people of Central
It .ly who have given toe Pn great a proof of their eon-
t knee. I believe in making this offer you are in.
flueneed leso by me personal' merits thnn by your de-
votedness toward t the Ki.hr awl by your feelingth which
are not only liberal and national. but also those of order
awl respect for monarchical institutions. Weighty re-
present:alone, reasons of political propriety, and the ap-
proaching room, deter me. This forbearance on toy
part, end the sacrifice I am thus making, will prove
more tiseful to the int:rests ttf our common country than
if I luel acted otberwi qr. Nevertheless, I thought tad,

Regency of Coded Italy.
Return my thanks to the people you represent ; tell
them that their pereeventnee and their general conduct
deserve the sympathitte of Ettrope ; tell then' to reckon
always 011 the King, who will support their wishes, and
will uever nbandon those who intrust their destinies to
his loyalty.
The Prince de Carignnn then summoned the Chevalier

tion arisen, by what right did the King of Sardinia for-
bid the Prince the Carignan to assume the Regency,
except the right of being Sovereign of Italy himself ?
Ity what right will he forbid Signor Ittioncompagni to
take that re-nonsibility ? When the subject of one State
accepts the Government of another the most his own

he abZlntady forbids him to accept, it must be by
some prior right of his own over the State which lout
