The Roman 1RepnblIc.

q
The Roman Republic.
Great sympathy is every where fell,
and expressed throughout this country for
the brave Romans, together with the de-
testation ofthe treachery exhibited towards
Them by the pretended FreEeh Republic.
The men who have been elected to s,is.
tain the Republic. Of Rome have taken
all their measures wisely; all their5doc-
uments breathe mild and pure love Of
Liberty. They only desire q representa-
tive government, they have neverinterfsr-
ed with the ecclesiastical rights Of the
Pope. and they have defended the eternal
city witl,a bravery which every whore
excites admiration. We cannot expect
thatthey can save the city from the al.
.tacks Of q large French army, backed by
the sAustrians and Neopolitans- the lat
est foreign intelligence states that the ar
my have affected a lodgmen, within its
walls. The Pope may yet be restored
to they Vatican, but it will be effected
over the PROSTATE bodies Of his people, but
he cannot remain nn hour in safely un-
less supported by foreign bayonets and he
will be compelled TO yield many points to
the people. The French government
having betrayed Italy, and free.goyerne
nents every where, has only Z, 10 consu.
mate its treachery by reviving monarchy
and repeating its constitution. It has
been observed of late that no: mention is
made of,he United States, its institutions,
laws and republican government, our ex-
ample is not quoted. England, it is said,,
approves all that France has done, but
the English deny that they sanction or,
approve the attacks on Rome. None but
despots approve Of, such measures. The
prospects for free and liberal principles
in Europe are but gloomy, but the people
have left their mark and under any
change their condition must be bettered.
