From The London Times, l4h inst
We have not had long TO wait for the decision of the
King of Sardinia upon the advice proered 10 him by
the French semi official press. The troops of Victor
Emanuel have entered the Roman territories, and war
has begun Ia good earnest. Gen. Cialdin has taken
Pesaro, which was already announced as being in q
state Of insurrection and with the town twelve hun
bred Germans and Monsiguor Bella have fallen into
his hands. Orvieto has also surrendered. This is
dashing beginning of the campaign and step that can
not be reiracted. Sardinia has abandoned the tenn
porting policy which she had adopted sin ,e the arms-
tice Of Vilafanca- She no longer oscates backward
and forward, but throws In her lot with the Italian
revolution. Policy has done her work, all that nego-
tiaon, all that balancing and temporzng could effect
hfs been effected and there is nothing e for IL but TO
fight manully TO the last. We may easily ina
CINE the motives that have driven Sardinia TO this de-
oisiye step. So long az she and her King were the
only recognized representatives of the Italian move
mtnt she might feel herself at liberty c6nsalt her
own safety, and await quietly the march Of events;
but the Italian movement is no longer under the exclu
sive direction OF the Saroinian Government. Victor
Emanuel has in Garbsldi a most formidable compel,
tCr-a man of that mold of which the successful
leaders Of grea. popular uprsings are made-a
man utterly regardless Of SELF aud not 70 be
acted on by any Of the mesner motives by which
mon men are 10 be controlled. The conQueroT Of
Naples and Sicily is quite certain not to his ad
vance AZ the frontier Of the Roman States. The
momentum that lie has gained sufficient q carry
him over all the Resistance which the States Of the
Church can offer, and 10 bring him with violent shock
into collision with the Austrian power In Veniee For
such consummatlon tie Sardlnlan Government Is not
prepared. IL plainly that if things hold their pre-
cent course little longer it viii be ia the power OF
Garbadi TO drag Piedmont well all the rest OF
Italy into conflict with Austria, and TO force her TO
Isk all che has gained in encounter where the prob
abilities Of are against her. Sue mns, there
ore at whatever cost or risk, make herself more
mistress of the revolution. She must lead that chs
may not be forced 10 follow. She must reyolutioniEe
the Papa S,ates in order that she may put bersef ia
position To arrest dangerous revolutionary movement
against Nene tia. There is reason 10 think that IN
recent interview the Emperor Of the French has beea
Induced TO see things from this point of view aud that
no Garger is apprehended on the side of France.
These motives amply sufficient 10 punt for the
decisive movement of Victor Emanuel. lie lives ~
