European public opinion cannot however discover
any change in the tone OF feeling here in Italy
Every day furnishes proof that the question is
clearly put by Ialy-Yenice by cesson or By war; The
10000 Garbadi were furnished in three days and it
required three days only because the could not

prove themselves to be only ~ years Of age in order to get
into the volunteer corps If the two sets of offices
open al the time Besides l. absolutely necessary
to apply the brakes to the popular enthusiasm The sight
OF red shirts nhames the popular mind and renders the
masses bitterly hostile to the tortuous movements OF
diplomacy.
il Of course impossible to predict that the Congress
will never meet or that it will only end in Where
dozen men have much power these diplomats and
represent such varied interests they control il is
pretty hard problem for outsider to decide what they
will do. To confess much rs this proves that am not

Sneezes would have told all about IT last night. As

That Austria has consented to Congress; that Italy
does not put the ceSson of Venice necessary preml
nary condition, but is willing TO modify the phaseology
to say provide for the military security of Italy,
that France has made secret treaties with Austria Prussia,
Italy England, Russia End the Sublime Porte, getting
bit of land from each of them, supporting them all and
opposing each of them; that Russia is the side of
Prussia and will fight 10 the death for AUSTRIA that there
will be Congress about the middle of june and pitched
battle on the Mnco next week that BsmaIk has failed
aud will resign and that he holds Europe in his powerful
paws. You select what peases you best out of all
these theories and hundred more. You pays your
money and you takes your choice.
cannot see bow Congress can succeed and II does
not look at all probable that il will ever be assembled
do think La Mamora will modify his proposition that
the ccssion of Venice be condition precedent nor do
how the territorial compensaiion for Austria can be
enough II IS fayoe plan TO give her sesian Prussia

crcss The world is large and something might be found
for Austria IN Africa az the south pOle but then though
fond of patch work MAPS the Austrian beldane wants
them all scwcd together and she will insist on that point
That Austria wishes TO gain time Is the most probable
solution Of the present d omaiic satisfaction IN London
the only place where peace seems To be az premium
As TO the ccssion OF Sardinia 10 France no one here be-
evcs It has been done viii be done. The best proof Of
this that the bitter Liberal organs DO not mention the
matter On the contrary they publish the English state
mcnts that subj instances of pure cussedness

IL is not impossible that the cession may take place; al
say nov that Italians do not believe It possible sup
pose the case stand about ia this WAY: Il get
Venice without French help, shall not have French
help 10 pay for. Now making desperate effort %
do work alone If get JOoOJ men under arms
and fight only head Of tie Austrian eagle the French
may go 10 the Rhine or stay At home-we shall not need
them.
The belief that this is our programme treasured the
popular mind. and long moving on thr line
OF march nobody believes that La Marmoa Will give away
rood Of Italian soil for the privilege Of shedding Italian
blood to win Venice. II Fnnchmou assist SHAH T.
