ton of his Italian policy for England
will not now oppose it, and no other
Power will dare to do so. Let us now sec
what this Italian polioyis is. w.
Lombardy is torn from Austria, and
goes to swell the power of Sardinia, now
more than ever the fief of France. An
Italian Confederation is formed, With the
Pope at its head. The Pope's, consent to
this was not asked Naples was not invi-
ted; the wishes Of the petty dukes Of
Tuscany Parma and 1fodena Nele not
consulted; TIC plan was concocted by
Louis Napoleon, perhqlls With Che assist
ance ofSvictor EMANUEL and Count "a
vou; and Francis Josepb comes into II
as King Of ,Venetia. These three. Being
agreed the others mus consent, whether
they will Or no, and the poliey. that viii
rule in their counsels IS the Napoleonic
policy. Should the Pope not consent,
Louis Napoleon has only to Withdraw his
troops from Rome. and the Romans will
soon bring him to reason. with the M.
poleonic ideas ruling in Italy, the first
thing the Pope must do is to discharge
All his clerichl ministers, and administer
the Confederation through cabinet of
laymen. II is not probable that Louis
Napoleon would consent to any other
course, nor Victor Emanuel, who has
driven the monks and Jesuits- from his
domain. Alittle time will be required
to consolidate this scheme, but it stands
from this time forth, and adds another
country to the list whore Napoleonic
ideas prevail. Thus viii they 90 on con

man, louis Napoleon stops at every new
step, and allows time to cement his ALI
'noes and secure his friendships.
The effect of this war, and more par,.
ticularly this peace, on Austria and the
rest of Germany, viii be remarkable. 1t
will drive some sense and not few new
IDEAS into the tIiex-slSulled Germans

hese things will of itself beget further
olltical and industrial revolutions there.
