FRENCH |rEEvEEI IN ITALY.
tFrom the London Spectator, June sol
Italian failure means. therefore, only
tho Intervention Of Frauch, Of a power
that is, with which Auslria; already Blrug-
Cling against northern Germany, would
find it useless % contend. Ofthis inter
%yohtiou tho Italians 1.-Two in constant
dread. They know that tho price will
be heavy, know also that once paid it can
never be claimed again. Tao Frcnchman
and tho Italian arc to nearly allied for
that stoaGiGcss Of hatred, that soliiily of
resistance which, since tic Ilohcnstaul.
ems roIrhed. has BAIL d Germany in tie
Peninsula. France. which can not col
onize, can attract. Tho Granddaughter
bonst in tl1ck German thu; tho trick oil
is invincible. and the Nizzard children
who now cAu,t that Guitnldi is their
compatriol, will grow UP 10 believe Paris
the center Of Civilization and :hc name OF
Frcnchmap the highost Of earthly honors.
Above all, tho lta lians fear the Influence
which France. Il second time their protoe
tor. would not fail TO exercise, and which
is 70 them scarcely less iutulcraLlo than
the horsher but less d~estypetivo dominion
Of Gerplpn euldicrs;
They gRGt to be a nation. not a pres
lecture OF Frtncc, to 30 their own way,
live their own life, take their own place
ON earth, TO DC in fact, anil not simply TO
have IN acknowledged right TO be. They
viii not summon Franco save in the very
last resort, yet, uiqcss thoy stand up
frankly under this blow. refill the wasted
ranks, repeat in some other foimthc attack
which has been lepulssd, prcse or 10
Verice as the North pressed on to Rich
mond, throug defeat. and disease, and
baukrupIcy-tiis u their alternative.
Their own national life will norge in one
which they admit 10 be great, and with
which they have some nusnces Of sympa-
thy, but which is not theirs, is, II even
lofLier than theirs, far less lofty than
theirs might, in the bracing air Of n COM
plete freedom, grow TO become. TO cal
in France is 10 give up at once a reality
and n dream, TO cripple the national im>
~agination MS well as weaken the national
strength, to surrender Liguria and the
future, and we believe that until the
choice lies visibly between German and
Gaul, CroGt and Zouave, tho Italians will
uever yield, will rathor move on patiently
supplying n man for every man who falls,
producing statesmen nnd Generals to
their need, rs they have always done us
they Cid, for instance, from 1850 10 1860
and wearing out attack by a deadly per.
sisteney Of defense. Their material re-
sources are unimpiared, their ranks will
be refl!ed ia n woek. They hpyo lost no
General and statcsman, no position they
had possessed, no hopo they were justified
ia entertaining. The sacrifice is ono Of q
plan and 10000 mona loss not o
lhousandlh Of that which fell on them
when the blood letters killed tae man
who in this hour would have been che
equivalent Of armies. The nation which
survived Cavour will not despair because

TIE INVASION or THE AUS TRAN TERRI-
TORY.
Tho correspondent Of the London Times,
who is with the Prueaian army, thus 1e-
scribes It's entrance into Austria:
To-day, with the .67rst PrussiHn Army
he has crossed the frontier into Bohemian
territory. The troops were carly under
arms and fell into their ranks q title after
dag-broak, under a steady downfall Of
drizz'ing rain. They had to march many
miles from their billots to tho placea
where they were TO form columns for the
advance, but they stepped well over slip
perry grass and sloppy roads, and were
( all ranged in proper order close 10 thc
, Austrian frontier. but ttill on saxor
orouhd. q little after soyen. AZ ST,
