pressed to you at the mionient-of the chilies taL die contemned at
Laybach in the month of May, 1821, that, another meal* if'
the Allied Monarchs and their:Cabinets would take place in the
course of the year 1822, and that they would then take into eon.
sideration the duration to be fired to the ineasures, which, on
the proposal of the Courts of Naples and Turin, and with the
consent of all the Courts of Italy, bad-been judged necessary to
consolidate the tranquillity of the Peethstia, after the fatal civil ts
of the years MO and 1821. ~ - • .

you acquainted with ks principal nienites„.. t • , I
" By the Convention signed* it -Not ate;July 24, 1821, the
occupation of a military line in •Pledinent by a corps of auxiliary
troops had been fixed to the term of one year, with the under-
*ending that at the meeting of 14122, it should be examined Whe-
ther the situation girdle country should pesmit it to cease or ren-
der it necessary to prolong it.
" The Plenipotentiaries of the Courts, parties to the Conven-
tion of Novara, have entered on this examinatioqconjointly n WI
the Plenipotentiaries of his Majesty the King of Sardinia, and
they have agreed that the assistance of ers allied force was no
hanger necessary to maintain the tranquillity of Piedmont ; his
Majesty the King of Sardinia having himself pointed out the
time whip he thought proper fur the successive departure of the
auxiliary troops, the Allied Sovereigns lust acceded to his pro-
posals, and it has been determined by a new Convention, that
the departure of those troops trots Piedmont shall citnmetice on
the 31st of December, this year • and be co:npleted ou the 30th
September,lB23, by the evactialse of the fortress of Alexandria.
"Vri the other hand, his Majesty the Kingof the two Skates
has signified to the three Courts,pardesio ibe Convention signed
at Naples on the 18th October. that the present state of his do-
minions allowed him to mimosa a reduction of theaumber of the
auxiliary troops stationed in various .parts of them. The Allied
Sovereigns have not hesitated to accede to this proposal, and the
auxiliary army stationed in the kingdom of the Two Siedies will
be diminiabed as Noon as possible by 17,000 med.
" Thus, in proportion as events answered to the wishes of the
Sovereigns. that is fulfilled, which they declared at the close of
the Congress of Laybaeb, ' that far Crum wishing to prolong
their intervention in the affairs of Italy, beyond the limits its(
strict necessity, they cherished the ardent wish that.the state of
things which had inipoted on them this painful obligation might
cease as soon as possible, and never return.' Thus vanish the
'false terrors, the inimical interpretations, the gloomy prophecies,
which ignorance or perfidy spread in Europe to mislead the opinion
of the people respecting the-Pure and gelded'', views of the So-'
vereigns. No secret plan, no ambition: no calculations of 'their
own interest, was ooncernedid the resolution which imperiohs

importance had taken place before the Close of;.thet netting:
What the spirit. of revolution had begun* ebiewestern penin-
sula' what it had attempts a in Italy, it succeeded in effecting at
the Eastern extremity of 'Europe. :cAi• die moment when. the
- military insurrections in Napleeemsd Turin yielded at the ap-
pearl of a regular force, a fireheeed of ritheihee was thrown
into the Ottouraitemperq_. ;The ' stf, thenvents could
leave no doubt on llie samenesi their 'initial: the breakieg
nut of the same evil in so many difibeetdpointsdid everyvihire,
though under various preemie let accompanied by the same
forms and the same language, toe evidently betray the am-
nion focus from which it proceeded. Those who directed this
event had flattered themseivei that they could use it to -confound
by dhchrd the counsels of the l'owers, and .to neutralize the
focus whicit new dangers Might summon to other parts of Eu-
rope. This hope was disappointed. The lionardn, resolved
to repel the' maxim of rebellion in whatever fine, and under
whatever form It Might skew itself, immediately pronounced
their unanimous sentence of eisapprobation upon it. Devoted
with unceasing attention to the object of their common cases,
they withstood every consideration which might have led them
aside from their truth; but at the same time they followed the
,voisE chi their conscience, and a sacred duty, and spoke for the
pusy,,nrliunianity in favour of the victims of an enterprise
. Fs, and ;slid criminal.
' numerous confidential communintions that took place
betw.ern, the five Courts during this period (one of the most re-
inaikabfe (tithe history of their alliance), having led to a per-
fectly satisfactory understanding with respect to the affairs of
the East, nothing remained to be done at the Congress of Verona
but to confirm the results of this understanding, and the Powers
' allied with Ilutsia may flatter themselves with removing, by
joint proceedings, then obstacles which still impeded the entire
tulfilment of their wishes.
"Other events, deserving of the entire attention of the Mo-
narchs, have fixed their attention on the deplorable condition of
•the Western European Peninsula.
" Spain now endures the fall which awaits all States that are
so unfortunate as to seek what is good in a way in which it never
can lie found. It passes through the fateful circle of its revolu-
tion-.a revolution which deluded or ill-disposed men would
willingly have represented as a blessing; nay, as the triumph of
an enlightened age. All Governments are witnesses of the zeal
with which these men have endeavoured to persuade their con-
temporaries that this revolution was the necessary and whole e
some fruit of the progress of civilization, and the means by which
it has been effected and supported the noblest essay of generous
patriotism. If it could be the object of civilization to overthrow
bureau society, if it were possible to suppose that the arri> el.
force which has no other vocation than that of maintaining the
internal and external pe./ce of the State, might with impunity
assume the supreme dominion over it, the Spanish revolution
Might certainly pretend to the admiration of all eyes, and-the
military insurrection in the island of Leon serve as a model for
Reformers. But truth has soon aliened- her rights, and 2ti
at the expense of her happiness and her glory, has only fir
a new and melancholy example of the inevitable consequences*
of every transgression of eternal laws, of the mural order of
the world. .* . ••
" The legitimate authority followed, and chained into a forged
instrument of -the overthrow of rights, and alt legal privileges;
all classes of the people hurried away by the stream of revolu-
tionary movements, violence and oppression exercised under. the
