"Neither Congress nor I (inference can settle the

adjourn tae war ; tnat is tne utmost it can do, unless,
indeed, one or tho other or the combatants becomes

"An Intimation lroiu the Emperor of the French
that he is in earnest opposed to war, aud will take a

THE QUADRILATERAL.
A Turin letter in tbe Liberie, after giving details
ot the aimaments going on in Italy, proceeds to
say :
',as it is impossible for the Italians to attack tho
Quadrilateral in front, the enemy, like ail the wor d,
expect three things: A diversion by Garibaldi
himself or one of his lieutenants, witu acorssof
volunteers in tbe Italian Tyral, taking advantage
of tbe mountains of the province of Come. If the
diversion-succeeds, and if the Italian tyrol and
I rioul rise, the communications ot the Quauri late
mi with Germany bv the passage ot the tyrol ars
ii.tercepted. 1 can myself state that the popu
lation ot those two districts are hostile to Austria.
A stcond scheme which the enemy appears to
suspict, is an attempt of General Ciatd na,
whose headquarters are at Boioirna, to iilacj
hi nisei i between tne Quadrilateral aud Veaioe,
traveismg tue t o ana tue auibb.
Ibis operation is ot extromo difficulty, the coua
try bung marshy, lhe Austriaus, however, appear
to lei.r it. for ibev are evideut v taxing oreeau.ious.
Geneial Cla dim has 80.000 men, or perhaps
100.000 men. under nis orders, tie bas received
carle-blavche as to t'ie choice of his officers, and nis
troops are among the Dost ol t'ie Italian army. J hs
General himsell is daring and enerretio. lhe onera-
tion whiou he will have to attempt must be g ave.lor
be bae obtained from the King tbe permission not to
have the hereditary 1'rince under bis or dors. In
affairs which ,he will undertake he does not wish to
have the responsibility of tbe beir to ihe throne.
"lhe thirdenterprlte which .the enemy appears to
fear is connected inn mate iy with the second; ,that
is, an attack on Veince and a disembaikat'ou. Re
mark, that to lav sieee to the Uuadriiateralis an im
passibility ; but to isolate ihe fortress is to cut off

ot a general insurrection tor, in lot, tbo Quadri
lateral is in tbe oeutre of Italy that is an operation
on tho value of which 1 have no opinion to Oder, but
it ieal y seems to be amoug the things whiou might
be attempted. Beyoud the hypotheses which I have
Ju-t pointed out, an expedition into Hungary is

tion, while by other accounts be is to go to Conio. "
M tZZIM ON THE IMPBJSDLNQ WAR.
BTazzIni, in an article In the Genoa Dovert, says:
"The war for tho emancipation of Venice was thus
far a duty; now it u a necessity, ii alter tbe
deeds, preparatives, and declarations of this moment,
Italy were to recede lroiu tue undertaking, she
wou d teveal herself to Europe as nothing butter
than a thing without national lite whatsoever a
nifre tool tor loieigo interests and designs to piay
with. She would le discredited for a loup ssrles of
years in the opinion of the world; she would have
to faoea mw detioit, added to the old one; she
would deprive her arms oi all eense ot dig
nity and self-reliance ; she would provide
potent aims lor the hands of reactionary fac
tions; she would open the gates to an anarchy iu
morals, or to a feeling of skep loism, or to that ob
jection which is worse than anaiohy. bo, theu, let
the voice oi the oouutry be heard trom end to end,
and let that voioa be one simultaneous ory ot war.
lothe Repub'icans who, from the rude
lesson of the past, would deduce an excuse tor in
activity, I. a Republican, too, say tni: You, O my
brethien, have always tau.ht till now, as I have,
that in order to attain, whenever that time may be,
to republ can freedom, it is neoessatv to deserve it.
Jjeseive it, then. Avail yourselves of whatever op
portunity there may turn up for the llbera'ionof
such anioni your countrymen as are still kept groan,
ing in loreisn yoke. Ouoe united you will ma roll
ou, through the propagation ot tiuth by your apos
titsliip, to conquer our ideal. '
"But do aot lurn this Meal In'o a eondition of that
help which a sacied duty bids you to give; Would
you have warned Joan ot Aro not to drive tue
Eutrllsh out ot Kienoet Would you have told the
Spaniards ot 1808 not to repel the French invasion,
since Frauce was a monarchy corrupt and Inept, and
because the majority of the Spaniards were not ripe
for republican institutions? Tbe national question
is sinned against by whosoever neglects to resolve
it. Ihe question of internal politics can be but au
error and notiiing more. Vou will never overcome
that error 11 ) ou don't first clean your bands ol that

MR. OLADSTONB'B SCHEME- FOR REDUCING THE
NATIONAL DEBT. ,
A return, sxp'anatory of Mr. Gladstone's scheme,
showing its effect, each half year, till 1886, in ail its
various modes of operation, has Just been prepared
by tbe Treasury, in obedience to an order of the
House ot Commons. It will be recollected that the
amount oi the trredeemaole annuity into which Ur
Gladstone protoes to convert the .Savings Bank
Dent was XI, 725 128 per annum. The half- early
payment, therefore, on the 10th of October next,
will be 862,504. Bv means of this sum an equiva
lent thr e per cent, stock ot 980,186 can oe pur
chased and cancelled, at the price of 88 peroent.
Ibis stock being cancelled, it la proposed to oom
Lute it at 3 8s. per cent., the interest resulting
from flu; above price in'o annuities expiring on tbe
6th April, ly86. I he annuity to be created for tbe
first balf year will be 40,425 por annum, and the
firot baH-yeariy moiety ot this annuity tor rein vest
ment will be 20.221
But the half-year's interest on the stock cancelled
Will only be 14,708; ro that to pay this new annu ty
there will be a net increased charge in the half year
of 5C23 For the second balf year, viz , on the 6th
of April, next the halt-yeanv payment to the ori
ginal ai nuity will be inciva-ed Dv 20,226, the pay
ment for tbe new annuity created ; and tbe sum
available tor cancelling stock will thus oe 882,799,
instead of 862 664. All tbe other resn ts will bo in
creased in proportion. l,0t 8,170 stock will be can
celled; 41,600 new annuities will be created; tbe
half-year's interest on stock oanoeiled will be
29,760; and the net noresed charge in the half
lear will lw 118(9 On tbe 6th April, 1886
62 614 819 or stock will have been cancelled, and an
annuity ot 3,170 818. terminating in 1906, will have
been created, tbe increased annual charge being
647,486. A similar table is made up showing the
effect of tbe operation, beginning with an annuity of
100,000.
