The only speech in which Count Cavou a's
policy of annexation has been impugned on defi-
nite principles is that of Signor num'', who
.poke ce Tuesday last. The address of the hon.
deputy owes whatever importance attaches to it
to the fact that he came forward as the repre-
sentative of • party professing to be more Italian
than that which now conducts the affairs of the
nation. He proclaimed himself • federalist, and
complained that the policy of the Government was
raising a.p not an Italy but an overgrown Pied-
mont. Turin was about to take precedence, as
• capital, of Naples, a city with a population twice
as numerous, twice as rich. The Government,
the speaker said, was now federalist also, but only
od neck- tsity, because it could not get Rome.
He complained that it first disapproved, then
aided and used, and finally denounced, the
active revolutionary party, whose aim was to
mike Italy am. It ought either to have coun-
tenanced the expedition to Naples or to have
allai.d itself with an independent Italian Sovereign,
th • King of Narxm, against Austria. Without
keeping these arguments of Signor FILIMARI in
mind we shall not see the dnft of Count C•% OCleri
speech, which the telegraph brings to-day. re-
onacial deputies, however, pointed out the fallacy
sit the orator's assertions MI the spot, as they
:Audit easily do. It was shown that the result of
/lilllol anon, however accomplished, would be union,
and in • united Italy the Piedmonts.* will be a
mationty, and will not have it in their power to
take that advantage of Italy which the federalist
orator fcired.

Wu are all familiar with the reproaches brought
against the policy of Count Csviiiti for its want of
straightf .rwardaess. European spectators of that
policy have often seen much to condemn, but the
mire ge:i.:rous have nude allowance for the dub-
mines of a patriotic statesman bent on accom-
plishing vast designs with feeble moans, and often
dr,ven by the crua force of circumstances to do
that which was as contrary to his heart as to Lis
premise ; but how an Italian sincerely desirous of
the greatness and independence of his country can
reproach Connt ('iv, es for a policy which has
fanned .Italy out of claims ts very difficult to con-
ceive. We may take the liberty of observing in
the most amicable manner to our Italian friends
that they owe it to the illustrious statesman whom
they oppose—and owe it especially to that
part of his policy which they most
wildly denounce—that the question of annexation
is now being debated in the free Parliament of
Italy. Had not Count CAVOCII resolved to con-
clude the French alliance, with all its risks and
all its sacrifices, neither Tuscany nor the Arnilian
Provinces would have been emancipated ; and as
fee Naples and Sicily, General Gsanistei, instead
of delivering them, would have been unheroically
cultivating cabbages at Capra. It is unpleasant
to hare to remind foolish talkers and writers of
these thingn; but when they attempt to make a
spurious reputation for straightforwardness—they
who never yet devised anything but a straight-
forward road to ruin—at the expense of the very
men who have procured their liberty—it is time
to tell them the simple truth.

---
Count CAVOUR.A speech, as transmitted by the
telegraph, touches upon all the points raised by
the opposition orator. The member' of the
Government joined heartily in the tribute to
(illtlekl.Dt contained in the proposed order of the
day. They had paid the greatest compliment a
government could pay to any man in inviting the
Parliament to decide between him and them.
They would offer him their hand and invite him
to union in the name of the Italian Parliament
As to the future capital of Italy, it could be
RuIDO and Rome only, hut the country must leave
to the Government the means of obtaining it.
Venice was Italian and could not be left to her
fate by the rest of Italy ; but a war must not be
nsidertaten now, be:ause Enrope, which sees more
than an Italian or an Austrian question involved
1,1 as attack on Venetia, would condemn the enter-
prise. Italy must unite and show herself strong, and
thee Europe will teconie more trusting and more
liheraL Count CAVt.l'll did cot state how the union
*nil strength of Italy were to bring about the
emancipation of Venetia. It was not necessary
to do so ; but we may observe that his words do
is 4 absolutely imply that that deliverance will be
the result of a war. The conviction of the Pimlico
and neeesaity of thy union of Venetia with Italy is
.ine that will grow ; and when it has taken pas-

session of the mind of Europe some means les
barbarous than war may be found for libeling th
transfer.

On another important point the Italian Paanixa
explained himself with clearness and emphasis. The
eeraion of Italian territory as an indemnity had
been spoken of. "To this report," said Count
Cavort, "I give a formal denial, and add
" that when the annexation shall have been ac-
" complished any cession of territory will become
" impossible. Nobody will ask such a cession from
" • country with a population of 24,000,000."
Let those who are disposed to undervalue the
assertion take the argument. Italians should
remember that the way to prevent disastrous
cessions and dismemberments is not to rail at a
person or a policy, but to remove the weakness
that makes them parable, and perhaps politic.
And Mr. Kt-Nouns might bear in mind that no
amount of objurgation, parliamentary or diploma-
tic, will hinder an ambitious but overmatched
State from buying help with territory when se-
riously menaced.
Count Civora's appeal for concord has been '
well answered ; the Ministerial order of the day
rendering homage to GLLIRALDI, and approving the
bill on annexation was carried by 290 votes, there
I being only six dissentients. Nothing now delays the
union of Italy; for such renitence as the army of
Pas Nem 11. can offer may be disregarded. The
King of SAILDLICIA, who was only five miles from
the Neapolitan frontier on Wednesday, has pro-
bably by this time crossed the boundary. What
is yet more important, GARIBALDI has appointed
to-morrow week, Oct. 21, ea the day for taking
the suffrages of the whole population of the Two
Sicilia on the decisive question : "Do you wish Italy
" to be indivisibly united, with Vicroa Iffinuriver.
" as Constitutional King 1" It is not a minute too
soon. Precious time has already been lost. The
Conferences of Warsaw should have been antici-
pated, and the chiefs of despotic military mo-
narchies should have had nothing to contemplate
in Italy but irrevocable faits arcomp/ix. With
vigorous and hearty co-operation, however, all
dangers may yet be avoided, all difficulties over-
come, and Italy be constituted great and free.
