The Future of italy.

| P'"i"o 'hc lecohclllaClon OF pollcy which has
taken place between him and Garibaldi The
question OF the incorporation of Venice and
Rome into the great scheme of Italian unity
is postponed, not abandoned. Six months, in
Count Cavour's opinion, will suffice to change
entirely the circumstances which at present
prevent their absorption. owe desire" he
says, that the Eternal City shall become
the capital of Italy and as to Venice, when
We convince Europe that we are capable Of
delivering her unaidcd, it will no longer con
tnue to oppose the fulGllment of this great
duty Entertaining and boldly expressing
such opinions, it is not to be wandered at that
GarlbaIdi should forget his old resentmcnts
and suffer himself to be controlled by the
views OF man whose patriotism only differs
from his in the greater caution which his
training as statesman dictates to him.
10 Europe the future of Italy is as distinct
ly mapped out in this speech of the Sardn-
ian Premier as if it were already traced by
! the hand of the historian. The despots of
the continent may league together, france
may pursue selfish and graspng policy, but
they can do nothing against nation compos-
cd OF 2I,O0O, 900 of as brave and intelligent
/ a people as any under the sun, united under
constitutional institutions, and bound togeth
err by the memory of their long sufferines as
/ well as OF their ancient greatness. For the
| first time since the fall of the Roman Enpire.
the Italian people find themselves again for,
ming distinct nationality and owning allcpi
ancct to one Government. In endeavorinc to
| keep Rome and Venice forcibly separated
! from the union of which they form necessary
! parts, the European Governments attempt an
lmpossibility. They neither make allowance
for the natural laws which govern such mat,
tcrSsnor for the influence of historical associ-
atons over the minds Of newly emancipatcd
people. Without Rome as the capital and
centre of its revived nationality and without
Venice as one of its vital commercial as we'll
as political necessities, Italy will never rest
satisfied 1t isin vain, then, for the Euro
pcan Governments to assume that they can
defeat the natural aspirations of people to
possess the memorials after having seized up
on the substance of their former greatness.
Nor is it likely that this policy will be per
severed H. We are of opinion, with Count
Cavour, that but short time will suffice to
convince the Continental Governments that
their own stability and the tranquility of Eu-
rope depend upon its remuneration. Bv com.
pelling the cession of Rome and Venice to the
new Italian kingdom they will put a curb on
the future aggrcssions of France, and remove
| from their minds two constant and fruitful
sources of anxiety. With the Eternal CITY
as its capital, and Venice as one of its great
commercial emporiums, rcgcreratcd Italy
will soon begin to exercise over the politics
and commerce of Europe the same wide
spread influence that, under other forms, it
welded fifteen centuries back. Her restora
ton to her proper rank amongst the nations of
the world will enable the European cabinets
to make such a redistribution of continental
territory as will preserve for the future the
political equilibrium and maintain undisturb-
cd the public peace. Let Austria be entire.
ly excluded from Italy and Germany, and Civ
en- as an indcmDifcation Turkey in Europe
the condition of which is adapted to her pc
cullar theories of Government. Prussia
should have the whole of Germany, as being
the most progressive Of the Northern Gov
ernments, and as offering, thus crcumstan-
ced, the best counterpoise to the power of
Russia ltaly y, with its twenty-seven millions
OF people and its representative institutions,
would be an effectual check on the restless
ambition of France, which would thus be
compelled to keep within her natural bounda-
rics on every side. With the Congress which
will sooner or later be called upon to settle the
questions at issue between Austria and Sar
DINA, these considerations will exercise their
proper weight. Count Cavouris wise to coun
sci patience to the Italian people. A delay
of few months will do more for the attain
ment of their views in regard to Rome and
Venice than all the armies they can bring into
the feld.-NeaO York Herald.
