An article under the Paris bs.a ::
forms US that Austria will not recoo,;.
the Spanish constitution even with @oS '
fcations: but supposing this to be W.
case, it will not cause the Span;ards ~
act as the Neapolitans. The Span.,S.
are one nation; the Italians are d;v;dsi
under different governments. To ,r,;v.
in Spain the troops OF the Holv Allan.
will have to pass through France and .s
ter they have crossed the Pyrenees tbsr
will find people originally less depraS s
than those OF Italy, and who have b,S
time to effect an organization of socis,s s
and government that may enable themt.
preserve peace at home and to resist as
&: cssion from abroad. We pretend not "a
the gift of prophecy but, even withou.
this enviable qualification for newspaue,
writing, we can a most venture to predict
that, if the Spaniards take the field. NOR.
than seven Austrians will be killed and
more than fifty wounded.
The report that, notwithstanding III.
pacitication of Italy, the Austrian and
Russian armies were to effect junction
in Lombardy, seems to indicate that tn,
two "Holy'' Emperors expect to have
more " Holy work for their Holy le
gions of professional cu,.throats to &c.
complish.
The precautionary measures which
Austria and Russia are about to take in
consequence of the insurrection in Turk,
ey, are, in spite of the piety of those VIII, |
direct them, rather OF an equivocal nature
We suspect that the catholicism of The
Emperor of Austria is of the stamp ap
proved of by the council of Nice, which
forbids faith to be kept with infidels or !
herstics and it is highly probable that tn. /
christianity of Alexander is of the like /
character. However benevolently, ther
fore, these two most righteous potentata
may have conducted themselves toward !
their loving brother in the Lord" Fer.
dinand, by the grace of God" King of
the Two Sicilies, we shall not be disap.
pointed if the mussulman monarch I'll
Constantinople should find that his MANI
crimes and misdemeanors require quite
different treatment from their hands. The
Grand Seignor may learn to his cost that
the members ofthe Holy Alliance can as.
sist the people against their sovereign,
when such assistance will best PROMOTE
their own holy views.
