FLORENCE July 81. 1866.
There is some discomfort in the Prussia pursues
IN rather forcing the peace upon Italy if not making it
without much regard to Italian feeling.
not very strange that Prussia is apparently dissats
fed with the military conduct Of her ally, and believes
that such alliance could not much profit her IN con-
tnuance Of tho Tho facts not pleasant matter
even for Italian contemplation.
From the Oath Of juno to the 9Th Of July Italy did
nothing although she had lost only 5000 out OF 3oOoo
men on the field If Custozza On the Sh Cadn crossed
the Po but he did encounter the Austrlans scarcely
pursued their march to Vienna The Prussians that
Austria had effected her retreat from Veneta and con-
fonted her German antagonist on the Danube with nearly
oil her military strength there any ground to be-
licvc that Italy would make oven useful diversion IN
Dalmstia.
In short French intrigues parayzcl the Italian army
from the moment that the Emperor discovered that he
had fatally mscacuated the resources of Prussia and
solved to have peace every hazard The most painful
comment these facts is letter of the noble CiadinI
just published Some municipality presented him an ad,
dress thanking HIM for his "spendd services To the
nation The brave replies, hare done nothing IN
this ,oar TO merit The thanks Of my c0HRfrymea." The
painful truth is honestly confessed that one cannot help
admnng this hero whose sword has been fastened in its
sheath by red tape In short there is IN this how not
TO do IS policy of Ciadini's campaign and its conse.
quences humiliation added 10 those bitter ones Of
Custozza and LISA Nobody believes Ciadini wished it
SO; nobody knows how his active genius restrained
when he had liberty of action he displayed prompitude
speed and authorized him 10 strike quick and hard But
then diplomacy had consented tn the occupation of the
Tyro; while it would not hear of Italian army moving
TO the Danube or even into lstra.
There is of course good deal Of dscontent-a bound
less discomfort may say-but il is purely political and
directed against the men in power and not against the
monarchy Nor has it the least tnge OF revolutionary
spirit believe il most heartfelt and look for real po-
lucal regeneration early and happy fruit OF the
| the national abasement
Admiral Pcrsano is being tried at Ancona at least it is
semofHciay given out that no and Others are under trial
My own belief is that the Navy Department is simply in
vesgating tho battle Of LISA IL is also stated that the
doughty Admiral has presented report rejecting grayey
upon the Navy Department, and surprised az the
patience with which the public supports the suppression Of
the report.
suspect we shall not SEQ the bottom Of the affair Per-
sano was himself at the head of the Navy Department
three years ago and mounted thence 20 his present posi-
ton When he makes charges against the Department
the analysis of them will probably reduce the whole mat
ter to Persano against Persano.
Angialetti who Minister Of Marine when the war
began is clever cavalry officer, who IS not supposed TO
know one end Of ship from another, and the Department
has always been worked against the public anticipate
that the blame will be about half thrown upon Mr. Webb
for not building better ships but IL viii stl be curious
and unsoved riddle why Pcrsano put three vessels in the
front ne-if he had any front hnewhen he had ships
believed be better built which took no part IN the ac-
ton and how il happens that one Of Mr. Nebbs ships
carries off half the glory of the Italian part of the action
Ii now appears that Cadinis advance was pushed 10
the sonzo and that the Austans abandoned this side OF
that river. This is new proof that the whole movement
| In Venetia was automatically commanded and precon-
certed with Paris and Vienna
There ere those who give out that II is not done YET
that the army will renew operations, etc Inc OBJECT s
think 10 let tho public down very gradually. Nothing
was said about the terms OF peace until 80 hours after they
had been arranged and then they thrown out semi
officially In the Malone, Ricasois organ.
