before the former could consent Ia taEa ort in d.
liberatiOns of which the issue involves sucb mo-
mentOus results, and depends on CONTINGENCIES an
various and uncertain. The course of The ENGLISH
government must be necessarily limited bv the
strength and universally of this conviction amongst
the English peOple-a conviction which the exist

modify or weaken
vi all the provisions of those treaties of all the
important changes which they record, and changes
sLll more important which they shadow forth, this
country has the perfect right to accept lust as much
anu no more as may be deemed in complete harmo-
ny with Its own interests and traditions. We are
concerned with the preambles of the treaties; they
constitute Tor US sufficient reason to lend beIpinr
hand IN the work of pacication which thew an
nouncej we cordially concur in the necessity of
such an end, but we remain wholly free and unCet
tered IN our estimates and views of means We
stand towards both France and Austria in a postion
not wholly dissimar to that held in the first three
months OF the present year, with this important
difference, that the moral influence which our posi-

The pacific settlement of Italy will be aimed at
by the present English Ministry Just as it would
have been aimed at by the last one had il at tho
commencement of this year sent Lord CowIv to
a Congress. But the means by which that settle

unmeasured abuse of France, Austria and Sardinia,

ne approaching Congress will not, if we are cor

emma, by the presence of all the foreign Ministers of
the respective States. Although Prince Gortscha-
koil Will probably represent his Imperial master,
neither Count Rechberg nor Lord John Russell will
deem 1t necessary to leave their posts at Vienna

Whatever results may flow from the approaching
congress, we may rest assured that the English
government will never stultify itself by aidinp or
aoettIng the restoration of these anti-natiopal ru

ed The only peace which we can assist in estab

nuence extends, does not contain within itself the
germs OF future war. The obstacles thrown in the
way OF the national interests, the outrages con-
Stantly committed on the national FEELINGS have
been the cause Of past Italian troubles. Austrian
Proponderance paved the way for French invasion;
both are alike at variance with Italian interests

concern in the matter is that the foundation onS

GARIBALDI AGAIN WISHES FOR A REyO-
LUTON
The Norimcnto of Genoa, publishes tho fo,Io,vin,,
letter, addressed by General GarbaIdi to C,ntoi51
BaggiO, a Venetian:
DEAR CAPTAIS BAGGTo l entirely concur with
you IN the plan of an Italian crusade and | think
it a measure worthy Of a people which is resoIrod
TO re-organlze itself at all hazards. What would
not have is the title of Generalissimo saw that
am with you, and that is enough When You want
me- send Tor me; but let it then be really for action
GENOA, November %, 1859.
1t appears that an interview has taken place he
tween Garlbaidi and the Empress d wager of Rms
sia, at Nice. Who would have anticipated that ten
years ago? '''
lie Nord, of Brussels, publishes the following
paragraphs
We have serions announcement to make on the
subject OF Spain. \ letter from Paris Informs Us
that England, persisting to the end in her cpposi
ton to the Spanish expedition to Morocco has
found preteXt Tor annoying the Cabinet of Ma
drid. She now claims from Spain, with bitter
ness unworthy of great nation, the payment for
the warlike stores furnished at the period of the
civil war IN the Peninsula. The Spanish govern
ment, calling to mind the affair Of Greece appears
to have the intention or Yielding in order to take
from England all preteucc for acts of violence or
tor an intervention which the latter appears to
seek. Bad reasons have never been wanting IN
England for getting up quarrel, and, notwitb
standing the desire Of Spain to Weld there is rea
son to fear serious complications.
