THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 4, 1856.

MN eft mere than one occasion. in the enrolls of
am shelled right of sovereignty, given an armed
emilemes to neighbouring States who have demanded .
II Grim either foreign or domestic enemies. Austria '
this right, and reserves to herself
the wage of using it when necessary," At a
time when the cry of " non-intervention • is pars-
lysing all our efforts lir the welfare of 'Reign States,
it is startling to read this expose dealaraden of the
right of a despotic power to oppres and destroy these
States—to lend its strength against the just demands
of the people, and to crush-no revolutionary such ad-
ministrative reforms as world swindles their govern-
ments with ours, and which we regard as the very
shit and omega of pod government. This declare.
don is aimed as much at England as at Piedmont,
ear ally, and ought to be fairly met—for it is the
etand-point of Austrian domination, and the battle-
ground of the despotic and the liberal principle. It
is a challenge that mast be taken up, a fight in which
we must opaque?.
The note further says, "Austria is firmly decided to
employ all her power to repel any unjust attack from
any quarter whence it may come, and to co-operate,
wherever its circle of action extends, is causing
to fail the efforts of the concootors of dis-
turbances and of those who promote anarchy."
This is a threat distinctly Bung at the Western
Powers and the liberalising Government of Piedmont.
What will France, England, and Piedmont doP
They have given their blood and their treasure to
preserve the peace of Europe and to prevent the
armed occupation of RONAL Will they stultify
themselves, and deny their own principles of action,
by leaving Austria free to do that in Italy which they
denied to Ruda in Turkey P Or, rather, will they
enforce the doctrine of nos-intervention and inter.
national independence, and so secure to the gifted and
highly civilized countrymen of DAV= and MICIIATZ
Amino that freedom from foreign oppression which
they have just woo, at the sword's point, foe the
- children of Ormux.

We have remit to suppose that the statement
which has appeared in the public prints to the effect
that the Peruvian Government has offered " a vim
of 100,000 piastres to the captain of the first Euro-
pean ship who shall form the blockade of the Amazon
and reach the port of Nantes," is sauce. By the
law of nations the navigation of the Amazon for
1,800 miles from Nantes to the Atlantic; belongs to
the empire of Brazil. through which it descends;
consequently Brazil has not established a blockade of
the mouth of its own estuary. Very friendly relations
exist between the present Government of Peru and
the Emperor of Brazil; say such act of hostility as
that described is, therefore, very unlikely to have
occurred. Moreover, to have issued an invitation of
the kind would be a solicitation to the mercantile
marine of Europe to commit an offence against the law
of nations whuit they are little likely to attempt.
Lastly, we aregiven to understand that by none of
the diplomatic agents of either state in Europe has
advice of such projected lawlessome been received.
On the contrary, the two Governments some time
ego =chided a treaty which regulates their reaper,
wee gavial rights; in sosordanos with that treaty a
Brazilian steam essapaay now navigates the Amazon;
and to its support the Government of Peru is bound
to maks annul pecuaiary subvention.
