The crisis is still nearer in Italy. King Victor

hardy At Milan the opposition against Austria
has again taken the shape OF anti-tobacco move

the chief supporter of Austrian policy among the
Italian Princes is counting popularity By remlttinga

speculation iail,d, however, since the clanors OF
the Wings and the French press induced the Gov

any importance to Sir John loung's suggestion and
even that Sir John lad since altered his opinioa
The question, however, remains unanswered Why
