BSs~ The Empire is Peace says Louis Napoleon,
and he illustrates this by two bloody and expensive
in rapid succession The Napoeonic policy is that OF
good faith and surely no one could doubt this who
knows that Louis Napoleon grasped the imperial crown
after having solemn oath to support the repuh-
can constitution. Napoleon is the friend of freedom
and humanity in Italy but brushes out freedom of opin-
ion at home and imposes the most CALLING letters on the
press.
Italy is not relieved of the presence of Austria Her
famous fortreses still stand intact to menace and over
awe her neighbors Mantua and Peschiera and Verona
and Legnano still frown upon Lombardy, ready at Ia
vorabe opportunity crush out any popular movement
Parma anG Modena and Tuscany are still to be gov
erned by Princes of the House of Austria. Little
enough has been done for the people, but much has been
done for the monarchs and there not wanting those
who assert that the price of Napoleon's modera-
ton he has purchased the friendship and alliance of
Austria and that the three empires of France Austria
Russia will be Hereafter found acting against England
and Prussia, making sort of new Holy Alliance.
Contrary to what some excited votaries of popular
liberty seemed to think or hope but in accordance with
what cooler ought to have prepared all sane men
to expect the war has been dynastic and not popu-
lar one.
The French Emperor in his proclamation published
in the Moneur says "The union of Lombardy with
Piedmont creates for powerful ally, who will owe
to us its independence" What this may be easiy
understood. 1t will be less independent ally than a
protected vaesal. Italy with French troops at Rome
with the Ausris cnrenched in their powerful military
positions, with Piedmont and Lombardy under foreign
influence and constantly reminded of it, will be far il
not farther from acua real national ncnpndenep than
was before. The nominal settlement however dspeas
ing to the people of Italy will be put under the guaran
tee of two military dCsposms instead Of one.
But Napoleon, as a Napoeonist, has acted right
wisely and prudently He has played the game he in
tended to play-that game very different from
that which kossuh end Garibaldi hoped or expected.
