The pacific settlement OF Italy Will DC aimed at by the
present English Ministry just would have been aimed

The approaching Congress will not II we are correctly

resent his imperial master. neither Count Rechberg nor
Lord John Russell will deem necessary TO leave their
posts at Vienna and Londen TO take part personally in the
Conferences.

gress may rest assured that the English government
