There exists—we rejoice to be able at length to
proclaim the fact—a virtual albinos between the govern-
ments of Prance and England to recognise and protect the
newly-soptired independence of Northern and Oentent

From the place which England holds In the on el &I-
liad maims it is pre-eminently her duty to show we= s
front; and it is her Interest not less than her duty. Ws
Gamed abdicate either our rights or duties In the great faintly
of nations. We speak of our Italian sympathies; but whet
we once before bad occasion to remark may fitly be repeat=
hers, that, jot as the was old Doke told us "groat nations
mance hoe little wars," so powerful =pine cannot ohne
Ineffectual rympathies. The Italian question has come to
dead lock. The conditions agreed to at Villafranca between
France sad Austria are found utterly impracticable.
Austria insists on their execution, France declares her
inability to execute them, whilst she declares that
her honour will not permit their unchecked axiom-
lion by Austria alone. In answer to the sound= end
wisest counsels, to the only counsels which eennesa pru-
dence or common sense could dictate, the Pops wren
and rages, brandishing " the impotent dart d Priem
amidst the crackling ruins of Troy." But " the
Ana:eh old" can still summon desperate allies to
the support of his tottering throne. The lar
parer Francis Joseph may hope to recover the tree
men of Lombardy by St. Peter's sword. la the
demi& of many a enperstitiotis cossehmes Roma can
crests for Ana= a second quadrilateral. Meanwhile
a young, panaceas, vindictive sovereign, Mug
to the quick by recent reverses, smarting under a waft
of humiliation and pasting for revenge, whom a die-
organised state, a discontented people, and a bankrupt
exchequer are just as likely to goad on to the rashest, on
counsel to the most prudent muses can at say mama{
renew the contest, by pouring forth' his *ices from lie
very formidable quadrilateral which be elrends hails, ad
which has already arrested the career of Napalms= =Mg.
We may feel assured, should the war again break on
between Freon and Austria, that it will (unless the &COM
on one side be such as completely to overbalance those on
the other) sesame colossal proportions; that it will be
mend on with the most envenomed rancour ; and thst, to
the ordinary causes of political and military strife, there will
be added the fierce passions evoked by priestly cupidity and
embalm seagoing the mask of religious sea:.
It is neither the wish nor the Interest of England that
=eh a straggle should be roontiosneed. It is both the wish
and the interest of Ragland that, if =happily recommenced,
it shall be brought to • speedy termination. It is at once
the right and duty of England to throw her moral, and, if
required, her military and naval power, into the scale, to
secant the termination of the struggle in the one mode
which would harmonise with the interests, accord with
the wishes, and cast no stain upon the honour of
her eons. For what, let us ask, would be the character,
and whet the consequence*, of another and doubtful

struggle t The Italian people have justly won, and are now
prudently and firmly merclideg, those very rights which
have been already was by Greece, by Belgium, by the South
American republate—rights which, is these oases, have been
fully recogMeed—rights as ►acrd es those fur which our
cannon boomed at Bavaria°, as mimed as those which were
vindicated and secured at Antwerp; and, ma it Is not merely
in virtue of any written treaty, but from a due regard to our
own position and Influence be Berope, that we should defend
the independence of Belgium, were that independimcs to be
nestesed to-morrow, se no special treaty is required to mark
oat the line of conduct which oar statesmen must pursue, or to

justify the measures which they may be compelled to take,
with rt (meats to the Italian people. The people of Central
Italy have pared from slavery to freedom, and from this
time henceforth it must be clearly uoderutoed that the
potentate, sad !primes, le they who they may, who eMU
attempt to Imam the yoke 0601 roars on their zeds
will have to *manatee, not alone the resistance
of the Italian people, nor the armies and deem of
France, but they must also be prepared to brava end over-
come the stern hostility of England. If they be wits, if,
waned ta Sue, they prudently act upon the wanting, the
peace of Borate may still be long and happily preserved.
Bat if, despising that warning, they madly and bUndly meh
upon a contest, the contest will be short.

sive chew, the innsinder of the proceedings were a parbot
patters of attentive decorum. Cruiser, the modal pupil,
sod Chesterfield of the stables, was merely preesated
to the company as a curiosity. Everyone knew his accom-
plishments, and there was no necessity for wearying him by
• repetition of his performances. A stout ordinary hackney
was then introduced, and thrown according to the
usual form, to the great admiration of the insjority of the
cabmen, although there were one or two cynics who " were
blowed if they see myths!, la it." Duing the promo,
however, the &any theory was explained, and many prim-
dor hints were gives as to the walmaness of cruelty and
the decioacy of seedless, In the management of the
horse. The company, whilstindignantly repelling the slightest
shadow of personal application, cheered all this vehemently,
and several gentleman simultaneously declared that the pro-
fessor was " • regular brick." Mr. Rare, then announced
that the patient upon whom he was then manipulating we.

mart hone, who had defied groom and stableman for two
years, who had eaten mangers, end knocked out one of his
own eyes in • fit of ungovernable fay, was about to be
introduced, and would, he had no doubt, be sub-
dued with as much facility as a lady's palfrey.
The delight of the audios* at this announce-
ment was almost ungovernable, especially when they
were told that the debiotant was also • biter of the first
eminence, and was as likely to dewier the probare as to
submit to his glade therndnos. This wee • real sad most
satisfactory anesthesia. The brats when he mitered the
show seemed a refer Leviathan. He ticket and plunged
like an excited Megatharium, and opened his immense jaws
to such an extent as to have ample room for Mr. litany's
had, should the latter nahappily get nor enough
for the experiment. The lecturer approached him,
however, without the slightest trepidation, calmly
expeundieg as he went eking, end explaining to
the company that this equine Orson was, under his rough
exterior, a perfect model of gentleness after all, and soh re-
quired sympathetic' handling to develops his reedy amiable
characteristics. All this time the horse was perform's( sr+

and lashing out, to the manifest inconvenience of the rods-

as he found himself resting on only three legs, bonne aft

which alarmed everybody, he fell with the shock of an earth-
quake and lay stretched " many • rood " on the straw,
whilst Mr. Racy sat on his quivering haunobes, wiped his
forehead, took off the strap, put it methodically into his
pocket, and proceeded with hie suloglum on the many ad-
mirable godlike of his prostrate pupil. He showed that the
animal had given up biting by putting his hand into his

his own head between the two Immense heavily-shod hinder

plete subjugation by submitting to a loud sonata on the

the property of a Mr. Chatfield, in the City, was in fact now
completely tamed, and was literally led round the arena by a
straw, of which he held one end in his mouth, whilst Mr.
