Was there ever so preposterous a demand made
Oa a hesitate P That men taken in the very act of
insurrectios. having in the dead of night attempted
to overthrow a government—having murdered seems
uooffending citizens and seriously wounded thirty
others—that men guilty of high: beams. should be
I liberated, because the King of Fattest* approves of
their violence, perhaps even stimulated it P This is
to .demand that the Helvetic Confederation shall
not only abjure the right of self-protection, but
shall cease to administer criminal justice. which is a
primary object of all governmeot. If the present
Ceatederation could be weak enough to submit to
such a requisition, it least obliterate for ever all
memory of the immortal resistance made by the Swiss
to Burgundy and Austria ; it must itself betray
that principle of neutrality and freedom from all
foreign interference to which collective Europe stands
pledged by the Treaty of Vienna ; it must disgrace
itself for the gratifiestioe of the puerile, but danger-
ous, eentimentaLity of the King of PRITSIILL
Europe is interested that the trials of the Neuf-
chatel rebels should proceed, because Europe is inte-
rested in truth and justice. In this ease it is only
by the administration of law, undisturbed by the
threats of Prussia, that Europe can leant who ben
dared to trouble Switzerland and to disregard the
obligations of the Treaty of Vienna: If the Kiag of
Paula* be free from all complicity with the rebels,
and of all reproach from his own conscience, no me
in Europe is so deeply concerned as himself that justice
should take its course. For at present Europe see-
poets him of being the instigator, and Buds grounds
foe its sespieions in his attempts to prevent the trial
of the *enders. Should these auspicious prove well
founded, will mere necessary is it for Ramp, that
the whoa, truth should be told. For to have a
Moaareltof Clesseasy plotting against the tranquillity
of Switzerland is a some of danger for which there
is no remedy bat exposure and the opprobrium which
must follow it.

On Esreysan grenade, then, it is moat desirable
that the Federal Tribunals of Switzerland should
proceed in them investigations; though on purely
English grounds we might desire their abandon-
ment I mein that an Englishman who took a
prominent part in the Great Exhibition of 1861 is
one of the criminals to be proem:wed.
