NAPOLEON-SARDINIA-CAVOUR !!!

Various hypothesis have been advanced—some
of them by correspondents in our own journal—
with the view of accounting for Count Cavour's
death. The whole thing appears to us as plain as
anything can be. The doctors did not cause his
illness, but being ill, the doctors caused his death.
They did this by their bleedings on six different oc-
casions in the course of a few. days. But then comes
the question, " What caused the Count's illness ?"
The question should be, not what, but who caused
the illness of the late Prime Minister of Italy ?
We have no doubt whatever on the point. The
grave responsibility of an illness which terminated
in death, rests on the head of Louis Napoleon,
and on his head alone. We do not say this on
light grounds. It comes to us from a variety of
quarters, entirely unconnected with each other,
and those quarters in which the most correct infor-
mation ought to exist. We feel that we are justified
in affirming that some time ago Louis Napoleon
had made it a sine qua non with Count Cavour,
acting as the responsible minister of Victor Em-
manuel, that in consideration of Imperialism doing
certain things—the evacuation of Rome by the
French being among the number—the Island of
Sardinia should be ceded to France. And not only,
we are further assured, did Count Cavour, although
reluctantly, acquiesce in this, but he actually signed
and sealed an elaborately drawn-up agreement,
binding Victor Emmanuel to fulfil his engagements.
It is flit ther most confidently affirmed that a few
weeks ago Louis Napoleon became most urgent for
the fulfilment of the bond into which Count Cavour
had entered, and that the knowledge of the storm
of public indignation, not only in Italy but through-
out Europe, which such a cession of Sardinia to
France would call forth, had such an effect on his
mind, as to bring on that illness which, in the hands
of his ignorant physician, so speedily ended in death.
The responsibility, therefore, of the death of Count
Cavour rests partly on Louis Napoleon, and partly
on the Turin physicians—on the former in the first
instance, and on the latter in the second.
We have said that we speak from what we re-
gard as positive information on this point. It will
be remembered, we have no doubt, by some of our
readers, that as far back as three months ago we
expressed, on more than one occasion, a strong
conviction that Louis Napoleon had made the
cession of the island of Sardinia, an indispensable
condition to the evacuation of Rome by the French
troops. The reluctance of Count Cavour to carry
cut an agreement which he knew would bring
down on his head the indignation of all Europe,
would satisfactorily account for Louis Napoleon's
refusing, down till the present hour, to either with-
draw his troops from Rome, or to recognise the
Italian kingdom. As a proof of the confidence
which we repose in the accuracy of our statement,
that a treaty was actually signed by the late Count
Cavour, ceding Sardinia to France, in return for
certain services rendered to Victor Emmanuel by
Louis Napoleon—we no less confidently affirm, that
our Government are perfectly aware of the facts of
the case, and that the matter will very speedily be
brought before Parliament.—Morning Advertiser,
