ITALIAN AFFAIRS.

The lnfOrma ion Drought Dy tue ClIy Ol WbsnluB-
tor that Garibsldi had called upon Victor Eman-
uel for fourteen thousatd troops and for the Kings
Cwp presence at Naples, indicates pretty distinctly
What 10 likely to be the future course OF Italian
sifsirs. The policy laid down ia the speech read
By Cavour to the SsrdiLiau Parii .mebt, may be
considered as having tTiumphod over that OF the
ultra party, which Obtained momentaTy aud
Threatening importance from the counteGance
gwen to 1t by Garibad There can be no attempt
upon Rome; but the Pope, sustained BY French
protection, vii be left ia possession OF that city,
with certain Limited extebt Of crcumj accent terrl-
tory. Still less viii there be any present attempt
to snatch Vene,ia from the grasp of Austria.
Steps, IT seems certain, will be immediately taken
Tor submitting to the inhabitants Of the occupied
Pspal provinces, and also to those OF Naples and
Sicily, the question Of annexation to Sardinia.
Count Cayour, in the message referred TO, was
very strenuous upon this point He considered 1t
essential to the preservation of order that the
Provisional Government should be forthwith SUPER
seeded By a permanent settlement; and though ne
dscaims on the part of Victor Emanuel, any
Intention to dispose of the people of uthern Italy
contrary 10 thrir wishes, he yet assumes their
w,sh to be al immediate annexation to Sardinia.
He also distinctly repudiates beforehand any con.
dtioDel annexation, or anything 10 the nature OF
mere federation. Had Gsnbsdi succeeded in
crustil the army Of Francis H., 30 as to render
Nap es Independent OF assistance from Sardinia,
this que tiOh of the time the special conditions, aud
the precise azure, of the union of Northern aud
Southern Italy, might have led TO very embar-
raising discussions. AS matters now stand,
Victor Emanuel seems to be ia position to
dictate bis own terms The battles of Capua
oEd Yoltuno have proved that the troops of
Francis H. will fight, and, by compelling Carl
baldi to call fer tue assistance and presence Of
Victor Emanuel, have placed him at the head of
affairs. In some respects, indeed, it would have
been desirable that the people of Naples shOnd
have been able to lid themselves Of Francis H. and
bis srDy without calling upon SaIdi0is for aid.
The marching Of the Sandman troops into Naples
vii be Likely to encounter some diplomatic pro-
tests and Count Cayour msy be tainted with hay
ing disTegarGed that doctrine of noninterveDtlon
of which, as against Austria, Re was so strenuous
an advocate. So long, however, as these obiec-
tons ere confined to mere protests, it is not likely
that Victor Emanuel will allow them to hamper
his movements, or to stand in the way of that con-
soidation of Italy into Que Kingdom now appa.
rentIy on the eve OF accomplish m5nt
Tie best chance OF tie complete solution of the
problem OF Italian unity by the additionOf Veneta,
would seem to be held out by the embarrassed
foalcial condition of Austria. Ths possession of
Vene,la If, and must continue to be, an immeGse
hi OF expense to the Austrian TIE ,-ury. All he
lice me that eau be obtained from it must fall far
short of the military expenditure Necessary to
Ii eet the ever threatening war which impends and
viii in'perd trCm the side of Italy. Austria, 10
her preseLtembarrsssed pecuniary condition, might
be iaduced fer handsome sum OF money to give
up Veneta, aud, apart from any sympathy for
tie IL Inhabitants, or any nati)nsl pride IN the CON-
Plete unity Of Italy the Italians would ON econom-
zeal principles be justified in payment which
would relieve them from the heavy Cost of perpetual
armament against Austta.
