The French protection of the Pope IL "as broad

the Austrinns, and the Neapoitans, and the Span

to his ministerial colleague, Fanti, who cumuiaies

ment of War, the Command-in-Chef OF the
troops of Central Italy, those Of the Romagna In
cuded. Central Italy is virtually annexed to Pied
mont militarly, civly, politically, aud pecunlarily.
The loans Of the Governments OF Elnilia (Napole0ns
relative and friend the Marquis of Pepoh, Is the
Minister of Finanse) and of Tuscany guaranteed
BY Piedmont; to the assimilation of civil code and
customs laws and legal forms, is now added, with

The form, however is grasely important. The eX-
ecution of il il thought to connect closely with
tain other complexities of the Italian question.
Of these, the one that has fastest grown within
the fortnight from a subordinate Dewspapery, theO-
retical, to high practical rank, is the Savoy and
Nice annexation completely. No sooner was the
Italian campaign opened with programme Of Italy
free from Alps to Adriatic than most folks thought
il probable, and most French folks additionally
thought it right, that it would close with adunc-
ion of Savoy and Nice TO Erance-so far as France
and Piedmont were concerned, fair enough bar
gain. French Liberals, advocates Of the doctrine OF
nationaites, approved from principle; French IL
liberals who opposed violently said doctrine applied
to Nenetia and the Duchies, approved IN this case,
partly from patriotism, but partly out of spite
TO Victor Emanuel. Now, at present there is great
reason to suspect il not believe that Victor Eman-
uel, or CayOur, who comes to more than the same
thing, has no objection at all to swap OF Savoy and
Nice against Central Italy and Venetia 1t is worth
noticing here that word against such annexation
has been uttered by authority at Turin, and that the
prohibition TO the Nicsne journals issued by the
Governor of Nice, to discuss or to quote from for
egn journals the discussion of the question of annex
alton to France, il not strictly needed; that Carr
balds appeato the Savoyards to protest against an
nexation has been prevented from getting printed IN
Turin. The French argument drawn from the
doctrine of nationaltes and of natural frontiers is
strong enough in its way; but more significant than
argument is the patent fact that the national opn-
ion, the instinct, rather, of the French, is fast set
ting down to the conclusion that Savoy is, some
how other, to come out of the present " situa-
ton" into France.
