Milan Oct . SEQ
informed you in April last that of the plans 81
italian diplomats to conciate Austrian coed win b.
taking wife for Prince Humbert out Of the Austrian
household 1t is now said that the Commissioners via
emma have opened negotiations for the hand OF daughter
Of Field Marshal Abrecht, and think the story correct
At oil events, Prince Humber viii mary an Ausrid
girl The fact will not however, have any permanent 20,
itical importance The mother Of the Prince was also
Austrian but that did not prevent either l69 or 1881
Nor had The Queen ever any influence the political
sympathies OF Victor Emanuel. Prince Humber hks
grown up in liberal atmosphere and he Is not u hs
least likely Unlearn the politics which made be htl
illustrous.
The Palermo affair has cost not less than thousand
lives and million or two Of money. The Goyernmtrt
had chartered - steamers which we're yesterday ute
over again t6their owners
But the money this emeute hiss cost is nothing 70 lt
shame il brings with II. Italians feel keeDii
that only the most stupid blnnderng could have led ID
such disgraoeful humiliation of the national authority,
commission has been appointed 70 examine INTO thS
conduct Of the officials resident IN Palermo; bot Bsros
Rcaso has shocked the public by new eareiessne,s.
The Mayor Of the city behaved passa0y well, and Aa
palace destroyed by the mob. Ricasol llastens
thank him and praise him for doing his duty and incidspN
ally commends the Project TOneli. Now, any man 81
ordinary intelligence must know that II these two msa
had done their duty 300 bayones could not have an
praise of RcasOl forecast intention to throw the blan9
on subordinate officers who did not obey ordersI but j
the business of good superior TO secure the execution 81
Unfortunately in Italy It is thought enough 70 sequs
an official that he gives the night order at the right tme
in foTgolfuness OF the obvious truth that good oeey
will sec % the execution Of his commands Peteci
1orrelh may have done well after he locked ny 10 bE
Government House and doubtlessthe Mayor behaved gar
any enough after all lost il is the conduct Of thss9
men before the attack which needs Investigation aud
think must be severely condemned. -
There is incidentally another lesson from this Palermo
business. Much ado has been made N the French psperg

fact. /
The point Of concern for Italy is that with her lengthy
shore line she is very much exposed 10 attack on the land
side. England could wres, Sicily from her In few dsyg

fear that England viii make any such raidi but thed
somebody else maY-the best fr'snd for instanee-ana
how guard against such surprises is already subject "a
serious study in the War Office al Florence. n
Garbsldi has expressed himself very hopefully shout
Rome, and the Roman newspaper secs in his little speeo&
proof that Italy does not observe the SepembeY
Convention. But Ganbadi has only expressed the BELIEF
that the oxed Romans would Do permitted to rsturH

Rome. The volunteer legion IL rather expensive luxy

mutinous spirit that II begins 10 be doubted whethe4

INly-gthe italians would be duly houifed at the spssf

nothing would delight this nation the departure Of

he will find cleaner. better governed and happier Rod
than he will leave behind him The Papa authorities d
not yet comprehend The situation. They have barely
heard OF Sadowa and until yesterday did not believe Il4

When they that Italy has Won, that AlstIA

will surely 90 away they will then probably do the WORT
thing under the crcums'sncesand the voluntary exl4
