Sir-The Austrians have entered Bologna. The
Emperor when he made his Proclamation in favor of
Order" and "DespoSul," declared that Austrian
troops were Sin the frs; instance to M0dena

spoke 'of The first instance, yet really he had noin-

1t By any mistake the troops should proceed as far

birth place of Anosto, and not incur the Indignation
and reproaches the anger and resent ment of France

Although however, the peace party has not vet
abandoned its hopcs--the nation has nearly lost It's
patience. All reasonable and respectable citizens
unquest0naby admit that war is a great evil, and
that peace should if possible, BE- preserved; but all
citizens who have gram of common sense, and
whose love of high prices does get the better of
their judgments, must also admit that after the revo

The conduct OF the Austrian forces in Modena and
Parma has OF course been severe and brutal. There
are troops in Europe less civilized less moderate
in victory less kind towards their enemies, and less
authoritarian than the Aus;Tans In Modena til ey
