FROM EUROPE.
by the Giermanra.

Had the Conference assembled, my Gov
eFnment would have declared that France
repudiated all idea Of territorial aggran-
dizement. So long as the European equi-
librum remained undistuLbed, France
should only think of an extension of her
frontiers in the event of the map of Europe
being altered to the profit of Great Pow
er, and of the bordering provinces express
ing by formal and free vote this desire for
annexation. In the absence of these cir
cumstances, t re French Government pre-
fers, to any territorial acquisition, a good
understanding with its neighbors, resulting
from its respect for their independence and
nationality. We should have desired for the
Germanic Confederation position more
worthy of its importance, for Prussia bet
ter geographical boundaries, for Austria
the maintenance of her great position in
Europe, after the cession of Venitia to
Italy in exchange for territorial compensa-
tlon. The Conference waited. Will France
be led to draw the sword? The French
Government thinks not. Whatever may
be the result of the war, no question affect
ing us will be involved without the assent
Of France. France, therefore, will con-
tinue to observe attentive neutrality, con-
fident in her right, calm in her strength.
