CONCERTID ACTION OP ENGLAND AND

PAANOIL

(From the Taw.)

The struggle has been long one, bet it is now
over. The French Emperor has taken his course, and it M
one which will help I. reconcile him with that great body of
liberal• minded and reflecting 11106 who have watched
with anxiety and regret hie recent policy. lie has
resolved to show to the world that he did not make
war for empty glory er to striengthen a tottering
throne, or to employ a isoprene army, Mot to give 13 a
gifted and unfortunate people chat freedom which hie been
so long denied than. The meow which has thus
been established between Fromm and England is the
guarantee for the freedom of Italy. We believe
that the mere fact of such an understanding intbeisting
will be enough to settle all the questions now in dispute. It
is reported that when the French Emperor determined on
adopting the policy recommended by England, ha applied to
ear government to know whether we were wiling to stand
by him should Aostrie seek to winos the Treaty of Zurich
by another appeal to arms. It would have been, in any
ems, a Ampertive from our established policy to enter into
each an ingegnment, but happily the thing was not necessary.
To the inquiries el the British government Antria le said
to have newsreel that she hal neither the will nor the
power to eater into another belies campaign, and that if
Prancensislnd the neural/mar the legitimate rulers is Italy,
Austria could only pretest spinet the Minnie*. To Franco
now belongs the settlement of Central Italy. England will
will hold es bier principle of avoiding actual interference,
theagb, me desbt, the two countries will join in a OOMMOR
plan for recognising and assisting the new government. We
may eseigntulate our countrymen and the world that the
year opens so anapiciiiusly, and hope that the Italian people
are MP at the dawn of a long day of prosperity.

A letter in the Freeman's Jour cal mention/ th►t
private momenta last received from Cardinal Wieser*
announce that his health bee been greatly besielltioil by the
change of air and scene, and that he la now, to all appet-
isers, on what is called " the high road to recovery." His
emitiewee bee had repeated interviews with the Sovereign
Pontiff, and were it not that the congress is adjourned sites
die, there was remon to believe that the Cardinal Archbishop
might have been selected by the Holy Father to represent
the Roman empire. A question might in that oboe have
arisen as to whether the Popes plenipotentiary, being a
subject at Great Britain, could represent the Roman
sovereign.
