TILE SUN.

LONDON, MONDAY, NOV. 23, 1859.

The sudden visit of Earl COWLEY seems to
imply that our friendly Ally is not very well at
ease, either with himself or with respect to the
compromise entered into at Villafranca. Though
that nondescript juggle has been carried out so
far by diplomatic mancouvering, still it wants the
moral sanction of other parties who were no parties
to the compromise. That the Emperor NAPOLEON
has acted too hastily on the impulse of the mo-
ment is now proved, not only by his own
confession, but in his eagerness to get the other
powers of Europe to deliberate on what is next
best to be done, so as to extricate him from the
perplexities of the " situation." On the other
hand, the Emperor of Austria is restive, and will
not be appeased unless the " abominable Dukes"
be restored to the power they have so flagrantly
abused. While England, on the other hand, can-
not reconcile it to her conscience to allow the
Italian people to be again dispossessed of
that liberty for the attainment of which
they have made so many cruel sacrifices in order to
escape for ever from the house of German bondage.
That the Emperor NAPOLEON has evoked a spirit
of national enthusiasm which he finds it difficult to
allay, is proved to the satisfaction of all honest
men who hail the regeneration of the Italian people
as the best and now most desirable security for the
peace of Europe.

For ourselves we cannot comprehend what
ulterior advantage NAPOLEON can propose to him-
self by persisting in his present dogged course. If
he really value the alliance with England, he must
feel that we cannot go on higgling about this or
that concession to despotic presumption for the sake
of Imperial Pride, or keeping faith with him at the
expense of our own Independence. We have
hitherto endeavoured to act in our own and on his
behalf on principle, but we cannot subserve our
own liberty of action merely to carry out his
" idea." and his only.

It is just with public as with private matters—a
good deal must be sacrificed for the sake of peace,
and maintaining a sort of goodfellowship, but one
cannot yield too much or compromise iltegrity for
apparent advantage. Indeed there cannot be
any lasting advantage where integrity is ashamed
to reflect on the sacrifice of honour be private or
national. Let us hope that, however much our
sensibility has been quickened by late events,
that several causes of provocation may be
softened into mutual good will for the benefit of
all. A few years of peace will do more for the
prosperity of both France and England ,than all the
