application of premiums to experts by clearing the
magazines cannot fail TO have favorable influence
on the resumption of labor, and which of necessity
will tend to give an impetus TO consumption.
at must be naturally understood that the decrease
which has taken place in our foreign trade must have
caused similar falling of in chipping trade The
movement of France with her colonies and with for
eign countries has BEEN during the half year, only
ing half year of 1Ss7 but it must at the time
be taken into account that the movement of our ship

importing large quantity OF corn'
Intervention In the Affair of Italy
In relation to what may be regarded on the Cont-
nent as one Of the greatest questions of the day
namely, intervention or non intervention in Italy
the Paris Messenger of the 18th ut says -: IL
ported today at the Assembly that Eoglaud is not
disincped to interfere, together with France for the
purpose OF obtaining The evacuation Of Italy by the
Austrisns. IL remains to be known upon what terms
this CO. operation will take place" We read in the
same journal -
the representatives The AFFAIR." Of italy formed the subject of
amin aed Conversations Much sad about aud
strong minority, not mel rity OF the committee wished
as sey to bring on general war The members

This question Of intervention cannot be readily set
tied in the affirmative for it is charged with immense
dangers internal as well as external The great organ
OF the Ledru Rollin and of the red republic teen
with the most urgent calls to war because the Rfone
paper knows well and so does its party, that France
once involved In war, there would be financial revo
luton inmediatelya return to assignats, and an un-
doubted surrender of the republic into the hanas the
bonnet rouges With the last blow given to trade and
property would swell, into ungovcrnable power the
lowest passions of the Jacobn party But putting that
consideration aside and looking ut the foreign
In Ifinf,f hard ha
moves made by Russia toward the Danube that
by the French into Italy would bring the Russians to
the side of the Austr,aps and what is more the Ger
mans who are assumed to be ready to side with France
against Muscovite invasion, would sti rather witness
AustIan that is to say German success in Italy than
French. General Cavaignac and General Oudinot
and NJ. Bastide would, undoubtedly be very glad to
acquire glory for the republic but in these times the
most ntic must count the cost and the most
daring cannot shut their eyes to The plain conse-
quences. The war wonld be conducted by fhe bonnet
rouge revealing in beggary and a reign of terror 1t
may not be unlikely that the Car has made a com.
municaton to the effect that if the French do not
str. neither will he, b., the Gaul moves so will

There can be no doubt says the correspondent of
the London Herald that the affairs Of Italy looked
i
avoid an Intervention franght with general
war, and which would at change the whole cha
racter of their internal policy, financial commercial
and social. A war would lead at once to assignafs,
and the word Is enough to throw Frenchmen into u
fever. But there the pledges that Italy shall be
free, coate 9ui coute. The Italian question involves
more than the success of Charles Albert there is
nothing that would be viewed with more aversion by
France than an Italian kingdom Of SO compact and
formidable dimensions as to create first rate power
The French policy has always been bnations
OF minor States against such as by their size and
strength menaced her continental preponderance;
and the Constitutional this morning attacks NJ de
Lnmartine for his proposed union with Germa-
ny, which, It says, is departure from the ira
seek in her relations with the east of Europe app
in the minor northe,n Scavonan and Italian States
placed between Russia, Germany and Itayn Now it
is plain to the most casual observer Of these great
movements that in agtating Switzerland, Italy, Ger
many and the Sclavonan provinces of Austria, Prus-
sia and Russia, that the tendency Of all is towards
unity and contrary to separation aud division. As
kingdoms become enlarged and strong, must the
and hence we have seen the struggles she has been
long making against the efforts nations to enlarge
from federalism into unity She struggled against the
efforts of the Swiss cantons to become compact State
ment they might have Ind towards her sSe strSn
ged equally against the first efforts ofthe Italia ms in
similar sense and now looks with cha
grin ut their steady departure from federalism, or
quasi federalism, towards unity and for the reason
that should Northern italy become one kingdom,
France will have as little influence in guiding governing
and intriguing as she has now in Switzerland Hence
against NJ de Lamartine who shows anger at the
threatened consolidation of Germany, which, should
it take place, would reduce France to quietness and
good behaviour Should France therefore, march into
Italy, this great rising question of union Of small
States, so as to form great kingdoms common
weatbs might at once have to be decided by general
war. The Intervention in Italy will not be decided
upon lightly.
