THE SARDINIAN LOAN.
SPEECH OF COUNT CAVOUR.

TURIN, FEB. 9.

The following is a summary of the speech of
Count Cavour on the occasion of the debate con-
cerning the project of the new loan. He said :—•
Our consistent policy has been at all times
national and Italian, and never of a revolutionary
character. Austria has lately taken a menacing
attitude towards us. It has increased its military
force at Piacenza, and has collected very large
forces on our frontiers. Therefore the necessity
arises for us to look for means for the defence of
the State. The English alliance has always been
the constant care of our whole political life. We
have always considered England as the impreg-
nable asylum of liberty.

" The cries of suffering coming from Bologna and
Naples arrive still at the borders of the Thames,
but the tears and groans of Milan are intercepted
by the Alps and the Austrians; but the cause of
liberty, of justice, and of civilisation triumphs
always. As regards England, Lord Derby will
not tarnish his glory in making himself an accom-
plice of those who wish to condemn the Italians to
eternal servitude. Our policy is not defiant ; we
will not excite to war, neither will we lower our
voice, when Austria arms herself and threatens

The project of the loan was ultimately voted by
116 against 35.
