The Derby Csbirei can scarcely escape defeat
and final overthrow, hosever de,,rcus to MAINTAIN

the public and theref the interest IN the discus

l. tton and DIserael OF the time when they worked
together with him o. the most extreme leaders OF
the working classes, aud requested them to make
allowance for those who have Lot charged their
opinions; the second was stu more striking. Mr..

A. Ia foreign affairs the English public believe in
peace, the Austrians and Italians 10 war, France
wishes for peace but the Emperor IS silent aud mys-
ferrous, lille Russia, calling upon the great powers
10 consider the Italian question in a Congress, is
ds;Iusted by Austria. France, England aud Prus-
sia at adhered To the Russian proposition, but
Austria objected, unless pledges were given that
the Treaties Of ISIS would be respected, and that
SARDINIA would be excluded from the Congress.
At last she modified this demand, and insisted only
that all the Italian powers should be repre-
rented. The last telegnphic dispatch announces,
however. that she has Withdrawn her OpPOsl-
ton IN the Congress, which VIII accordingly
assemble at AK la Chapellc. Still, ii It Is
true that Prince Napoleon vii represent France
OF the Congress, it cannot fan to result IN an open
rupture. So muco is certain. that the Court OF
1uIin has lost It's confidence in the French En-
peror " nile it has encouraged the hopes of revolu-
tionary Italy to degree in which it becomes inn
possible to 20 back. Nothing but a war can now
saye Sardinia from q revolutions; but single word
Of CdyOur may al once produce al eXDl sion IN
TUSCANY Modena and Parma and force Napoleon
to a decided step. A. to the special treaties OF
Austria with the Italian Powers, they are doomed,
BY the common consent OF Europe. Ihey too
closely resemble those treaties of protection by
which the East India Company insured the native
Princes against any revolt of their subjects, aud IN
this way made eXt0rtlOn and INSTRUMENTATION
sife. The smaller Italian powers have surrendered
Ia Austria nothing but their regulation Ot foreign
affairs: they are repre- ,ented abroad by the Aus
TRAN ambassadors; but they gel IN return CON-
pete guaranty against foreign war aud instruction
at home. Under such circumstances, II Is quite
natural that the Austrian Government should be-
come the real ruler of those countries, while Ma
pies, too large to give up her treaty making power.
Is specially bound Away to conform to the prlnc
pies of Austrian administration. The result Of
these treaties il, OF course, the most intcerable
despotsm.
According to my private information, the Empe-
Tor Napoleon continues to be intent on war, but he
wants time, not only to make preparations for the
campaign on larger scale than originally in-
tended since the gigantic efforts of Austrlt have
surpassed his expectations, but likewise to cripple
the resources OF Francis Joseph, who Is unable to
maintain hi, large military establishment for any
length of time, and, moreover 10 give to the Ger
mans an opportunity to split into their usual irac-
tons. The tIst threats against Austria made Ger
many Unanimous; The dreams of Tentonlc unity
were again awakened, and from the Sea to the Alps
We heard the strange assertion that the deienses OF
Germany lie ON the AIDA and MiDcio. IN Lombsrdy
aud Venice. I he sober second thought has already
made Temperament Prussa the first lntOXcatlOn
has passed Germany begins to feel that the Au,tn-
an Empire is not German, and that the PrOtestants
cannot heartily fight for It's C0ncortat, nor the
Liberals for Italian oppression. The delay granted
BY the Congress cannot iail to work IN the same
direction: il will isolate Austria and enieeble her,
and hence her reluctance TO agree to It. The
present Vienna Cabinet know, moreover, that Eu-
rope will not be satisfied with any smaller conces-
SION than a separate National Administration OF the
Italian Provinces that to say, with the overthrow
of that centrullzng policy which was inaugurated
by Count Stad0n aud Prince SchwatzeDberg IN
1-4c, aud which made any arrangement with Hun
gary impossible. The Congress must result either
IN war, or ia the complete change of the present
system Of government at Vienna. II Is quite nitu-
raj that under such circumstances, the tone OF the
Hungarian papers should be cLeeruli they already
dream of the revival OF the Constitution, aud remind
the Emperor OF the pledges of his ancestors aud OF
the sacrifices II the nation for the maintenance OF
| the throne Of the Hapsburgs.
