ADHESION OF SARDINIA TO THE
WESTERN PO WEBS.

The ink with which we expressed the sympathy of the
English nation with the gallant and patriotic struggle
which the constitutional monarchy of Piedmont is main-
taining against Rome is hardly dry, before we are called
on to express our admiration at the decided attitude
which the Sardinian Government has assumed in the
affairs of Europe. The critical times in which we,live,
the great events that are continually occurring, bring
out in strong and unwonted relief the character of men
and of nations, and show us in one place a people tamely
sinking below its position and its opportunities, and in
another one gallantly rising above them. Look at the
present position of Prussia, a nation armed to the teeth,
and heretofore considered one of the five great Powers
of the world, entering into engagements from which she
shrinks as soon as she has entered into them, till at
last, left fairly behind by the onward course of events
and European diplomacy, she is reduced to petition for
leave to be present at conferences in which she has lost
all voice and all right of participation. Here is a Power
unequal to her destiny, inferior to the part which her
place in the European confederacy assigns to her, sink-
ing into a second-rate position, merely because she has
not spirit to act a first-rate part. Then look at Pied-
mont, a large portion of whose territory is occupied by
rugged mountains and Alpine pasture, whose popu-
lation is small, and whose geographical position is
by no means commanding. Piedmont has hardly healed
the wounds which she received from the sword of
Radetsky in her bold but unequal conflict for Italian in-
dependence. The moderate form of government she has
adopted, modelled as it is on our own constitution, ex-
poses her alike to the hatred of the slaves of a repres-
sive absolutism and the frantic votaries of republican
license. Her finances have hardly recovered the drain
of the late war, and her people are still new to the con-
stitutional system, which has ever proved more perfect
in practice than in theory, and has not with them, as
with us, the memories of six hundred years to strengthen
and support it. Had the home policy of Piedmont been
chargeable with inaction, or her foreign relations with
timidity, here surely are causes of embarrassment and
difficulty in which a candid mind would find ample
ground for excuse. But Piedmont has shown herself
neither timid nor inactive. Notwithstanding the pres-
sure on her finances, she has with admirable boldness
and decision reformed her whole system of taxation on
the footing of free trade. Beset between absolutism
on ono side and republicanism on the other, she has
been guilty of no undue compliance to either, but has
maintained with dignity her liberties against the one,
and her moderation and self-respect against the other.
She is even now engaged in asserting her independ-
ence of the Roman Pontiff, and vindicating, in despite
of a numerous and bigoted party among her own
citizens, her supreme power over all persons, both
ecclesiastical nail civil. Even while this great work is
proceeding she has taken another step equally decided
and significant. While Prussia dare do nothing but
offer mediation which nobody will accept—while Spain,
rich in territory and in memories, but poor in spirit, in
men, and in money, will not join in league against a
Government which refuses to reoognise her very exis-
tence—and while Greece, as false to her interests as to
her traditions, seeks to sell for the glories of an imagi•
nary empire her liberty and political existence, Pied-
mont, acting for itself, under no pressure and no com•
pulsion, has joined the confederacy against Russia. Our
foreign intelligence records the resignation by General
Dabormida of the poarivntofouwlrihoattoofsptriraFoittreiotghisniscAAffairs and the
,—a
important sufficient
step
M.
with what readiness those who have

taken it will carry it out. While the King of Naples is
on the one side prohibiting Russian loans from being
negotiated on his Bourse, and on the other patching up
his quarrel with the Jesuits, whom he had believed too
liberal for his Government, but who have, as it might
be supposed they would, succeeded in giving him satis-
faction on that point,—while the Pope, fresh from the
laurels gained in the conference on the immaculate con-
ception, is overwhelmed in prostrate gratitude at the
magnanimity which leaves him 3,500 foreign soldiers
to prevent his having to pay a second visit to Gaeta
—the King of Sardinia, strong in the attachment

of his people and the justice and moderation of his
Government, is alone able to stand erect among the
ruins of prostrate Italy, asserts for himself a clear ,
and independent foreign policy of his own, and takes
a place in the councils of Europe such as no Italian
State since the decline of the Venetian Republic has pre.
sumed to occupy.
It must, of course, be a matter of congratulation to the
allies that they have received the adhesion of a free aad
gallant nation, possessing a numerous and well-disci-
plined army, trained in actual warfare, officered by men
of intelligence and experience, and animated by a spirit
hostile, above all things, to foreign and despotic aggres-
sion. We reckon it no small happiness to see combined
in alliance with us the troops that contested with so
much honour the fields of Santa Custozza, Goito, and
Novarra ; but, independently of any aid we may derive
from the accession of Sardinia to the alliance, we most
sincerely rejoice to see her taking a course which cannot
fail to conciliate for her the respect of Europe, and the
envy of those portions of Italy whose Governments are)
too much occupied in tke prolosgation from day to day
of their own precarieus and miserable existence to have
any foreign policy at all; who have not honesty enough
to secure a friend, nor power and spirit enough to make
an enemy. In the hands of the people of Piedmont and
in our own are now placed the destiny and reputation of
representative government. We trust that we have so
acted in this quarrel as to show that we are neither
driven prematurely into war by popular violence, nor
held back from it through the weakness of our executive;
that freedom of discussion does not always lead to
difference of opinion ; tffat men may lore their
country- without servility to the Minister of the
day, and that the unanimity of a free people gives
strength to a Government for which despotisms look
and long in vain. We doubt not that Piedmont will
enforce the same lesson ; that the step which has been
taken by the wisdom of the Ministry will be supported
by the courage of the people ; and that, by thus assum-
ing a distinct place in European politics, she will secure
to herself those solid advantages which firm resolution,
well justified seif-confidence, and clear and definite views
and aims, never fail to conciliate for their possessors.--

THE RECENT EXTENSIVE OIL ROBBERIES
.A. 2 BR'S.
TOL.—The Court of Quarter Sessions, held at Bristol
yesterday, before Sir A. Cockburn, was occupied through-
out the day in investigating several charges preferred
against J. Davey for stealing a large quantity of seal
oil, the property of Messrs. Hare and Co. and against
Mr. John Gilbert, jun., oil merchant, of Bristol, for re-
ceiving the same, well knowing it to have been stolen.
The court and its approaches were densely crowded
throughout the day. Mr. Serjeant Wilkins was specially
retained for the defence, and Mr. Stone and Mr. Pri-
deaux, of the Western Circuit, conducted the prosecu-
tion. The case was gone into at great length, and many
witnesses were examined. At its conclusion the jury
returned a verdict of Guilty against both the prisoners,
and Gilbert was sentenced to four years' penal setvitude,
and Davey to two years' imprisonment, with hard labour.
SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—An accident of a very serious
and melancholy nature occurred last week to a very fine
boy, aged 7 years, son to Dr.. Ryan, of Pallas-green,
county Limerick. A. powder horn, full of powder, was
left, as it was thought, safe on the chimney-piece ; the
young lad, however, got hold of it, and said to his little
sister, "While mamma is upstairs I will bombard Sebas-
topol ;" and endeavoured to get the powder out of the
horn. In this, however, he did not succeed; He then
held, the horn close to the fire, when an explosion took
place, shattering the thumb of the right hand very much.
Dr. Ryan was not at home when the occurrence took
place. Fortunately, Professor Apjohn, of Dublin, who
was on a visit with his brother-in-law, T. Kearney, Esq.,
saw the child very soon after the accident, and did
much to allay his suffering. He was also visited by an
eminent surgeon, of Limerick, who considered amputa-
tion of the thumb the only alternative. This course
Dr. Apjohn and Dr. Ryan would not consent to, when
the child was sent by the next train to Dublin,
and placed under the care of Surgeon Adams, Stephen's-
green, under whose skilful treatment the little patient it
progressing favourably. This ought to be a caution to
parents.
