THE SAVOY QUESTION.
The annexation of Savoy to France was gene
rally regarded as an accomplished fact. The Lon.
don Times admits that the Emperor Napoleon had
gone SO far that he could not in honor recede with
out hight, and says that he must be permitted to
carry of his prey. 1t is asserted that all the an
pointments of projects and other officials for Savoy
bad been completed in Paris. The Paris Potrie
publishes n letter from Turin stating that the
question of the annexation of Savoy had been def
nitely settled between France and Sardinia The
treaty was defined at Turin before NJ Thouvenel
addressed his circular note of the l4th to the
Foreign Powers who signed the final act at
Vienna. The object of this note is to disengage
the question of the cession of Savoy spontaneous
ly agreed to by the King of Sardinia; and not only
the question OF the guaranteed neutrality of Swift
zerland but also the principle of national bounda-
ries. NJ. Thouvenel explains the reasons which re-
duced the cession to a simple reconciliation. He
expresses, therefore, in the name of the French
Government, a hope that the Powers who have
signed the final act of Vienna, will appreciate the
considerations in this note with the same friendly
feeling with which the communication of the new
territorial arrangements concerted between France
and SARDINIA has been made to them. 1t is clear
that the object OF NJ. ThouvenePs note is not to con-
suit Europe, and still less to admit any protest
which may be made by the Foreign Powers. but
simply to communicate to them tnat the unnexa-
ton has been resolved upon The Paris cores

private that the treaty for the cession of So
voy was signed on the 18th. French troops will
certainly occupy Savoy Immediately 1t is conf
IDENTIFY stated that the Pope has asked the Emperor
10 70 withdraw his troops from Rome, and that the
Emperor makes no other objection than that he
wishes first to be assured that Austria will NOT at
tack Piedmont. On the other hand, it is said that
Austria will not object if Piedmont will promise
diplomatic fencing, which will not, | think, lead tn
the evacuation of Italy by the French army, but
there no doubt that negotiations of great impor
tance are going on writer in the Opinione
Ndtionote, who, it is understood, is to get a Pre-
lecture in Savoy, boasts that the French Govern
ment would like nothing so much as general war;
to revenge Waterloo and Leipsic, and to rallv dis
affected subjects at home to the Emprror's dynasty
and expresses regret that the Republic of 1913 did
not stretch its hand to take, not only SAVOY but
Belgium and the Prussian provinces of the Rhine.
This representation of the aggressive policy of Ma
poeon H., distinctly lays down the necessity un-
der which the Emperor of the French is placed, to
carry on foreign wars in order to prevent divisions
at home.
GREAT BRITAIN.
In the House of Lords, on the 10Th March, Lord
Sydenham moved a resolution declaring that it is
eXpedient, in the election Of members of Parlia-
ment that the votes OF the electors be taken by
cret ballot. The Duke of Newcastle opposed the
motion, and argued that publicity is an essential
element of freedom, and that the ballot adopted in
America is not secret voting at all. The motion
was was lost oy vote OF yeas to 80 nays. His lord
ship then moved the second reading of the Reform
Dill. Mr.. Disraeli spoke in opposition to the mea.
sure, and asserted that it would give the predomi-
nant power to the lower classes. He condemned
the Dill as premature and mischievOus, and hoped
the government would withdraw it, Mr. BRIGHT
was the principal speaker in support of the bill
He admitted that it was not all that he could de-
sire, but thought it was desirable to proceed bv de
grees. The debate was adjourned. On the 2Oth

annual motion for taking votes by ballot After
some debate the motion was rejected by vote of
