Inifed for the expenses Of the eastern war in the
same way, and although their own interests
more than regard for the sultan, or the alb
stract principles of justice, moved them to take
up arms, Turkey will doubtless be called upon
to make the heaviest sacrifices in behalf Of hel
allies. It has been suggested that the Danu-
bian prncipalites will be given to Austria in ex-
change for her possessions in Italy which France
desires, and for the Inauguration of French
power throughout the whole Italian peninsula
| and dependencies. This would be binding Aus
| tria firmly to western alliance against the
| further progress of Russia to the south, while
with the command Of the Bosphorus, France
and England can control both or either of these
great continental powers, as future occasion
may require. Italy regenerated by the leayen
of imperial France, and united to her by the
return of the Murat family, and as has been
limited, election of a young pope from the Bona
parte family, would spring into newness of life
and grandeur, entirely beyond the reach or con-
ception of that effete regime that now controls
her destiny.
It lis now supposed that the fall of the Bour-
bon dynasty in France will soon find counter
part in Naples, and indeed, Throughout all the
revolutionary dependence of imperial France
The alliance Of the king of Piedmont and sar-
DINA with the western powers in the present
potentate is known to be favorable to a wisely
liberal policy and stands firmly in direct antago-
nism to the pope, who our readers are aware,
has already hurled the majorexcommunication
against the reforming king of Piedmont.
It is now somewhat stronger than conjecture |
that the spirit of reform and progress is now no
longer to be safely repressed in Europe, and
that to guide it peacefully, has been assumed
as task by the rulers, hence Napoleon Ill.,
now the master spirit of the age, and as likely
to become as greatly celebrated in state policy
as his llustrious relative was renowned in arms,
is feltifnot seen. The papal influence is known
to be the essence Of political despotsm, every
where on the continent, but when Spain falls
away as she has done, it is not a hazardous
prediction, that great change is pending. The
of the church property of the
state authorities in Piedmont, and in Spain, is

good sense and sound conscience 49,
