It Is now In my power to lurnisb. jour reader
With authentic Information, from the best aud
most leliable sources, on I he unexpected pvlla.
mentary episode in reference to the relations
between Prussia and Italy, lor which we are
Indebted to General La Marmora. If thateplsode
posseted a mere historical interest It might be
passed over In silence. Bat the statements to
which General La Marmora's speech would lend
currency are calculated to embitter the future
yen more than to excite reitret respecting the
past political and mlliti ry relations of two great
countries: and theretoie, as General La Mar
mora, perhaps with the very pardonable vlow of
retaining his own personal prestipe, diminished
since the campaieD of lbUG, has telt himself at
liberty to communicate to the Italian Parliament
a document which, being one atlecilug the rela
tions between two governments, he now possess
ing simply a private capacity had no right to
publish, and which would lead all Europe to
suppose that the course ot affairs at the outbreak
of the campaign of 1HC0 was very Uitlerent from
what it really was, it Is desirable to exhibit the
facts of the rase in their real character, order,
and proportions.
Three weeks before the breaking out of the
war lor the liberation of Venice, Count D'Use
dom, the I'ruseluu Minister at the Court of
Florence, had repeated conversations with Gene
ral La Marmora. The Prussian Minister sought
to Impress on the general how desirable it was
that the Italians should not throw themselves
inconsiderately upon the Quadrallteral, but
should act iu perfect agreement with their
Prussian allies, in order to secure the great aim
of their lcHguc, the breaking up of the Austrian
monarchy. Count U'Usedom was not alone iu
those conversations with General La Marmora;
his views were repeated and enforced by aa
elderly officer, General Ikmhaard, the military
representative attached to the Prussian em
bassy at Florence. In compliance with the
Instructions of their Government, Couut d'Use
dom and General Uernhaard set forth with the
most perfect confidence tho entire strategctlcal
plBn proposed by Prussia lor the common action
of tho Prussian aud Italian armies. Prussia
would not have stopped short belore Olrautz,
Kocuigratz. or Tbereaieustadt, but would have
pushed straight on to Vienua. Aud what was
the plan in tavor with General La Marmora?
lie was not prepared to announce one. It did
not appear that be had formed one. Couut
D'Usedom and General Berubaurd laid before
General La Marmora all tho plans of Prussia;
but they were kept in icnorauce of those of
Italy. In this state of imperfect confidence
they could only sut'ge.-t, but it id not pretend to
dictate, that the best course would be to leave
a strong corps tor the clofeuse of Turiu, and
Milan, toid, iruver.-iug the Po. to leave the tor
tresses to the left, and push on towards Ley
bach, Trieste, ud Vienna not bto.ping at
the Isou.o. The Quadrilateral la far more
Blrouuly lortifled ou its western side, in con
BCQuencc ol that Irotit being turned to Piedmont
and France, and any atieiupt to pass would bo
latal. Ou the contrary, tho Qui Inlileral to tho
south, on Ik side of Ferrara and Bologna,
Where no apprehensions were entertained from
tho hostility of the Pope, was comparatively
weak, and as, moreover, the niturul dillicalties
were dimimshed at thut season of the year,
from the rivers beiuc low and the mountain
torrents almost dried up, a march in that
direction would not have presented very alarm
ing obstacles. Io these considerations of the
Piusian Miuistcr-in-Geuerai, General La Mar
mora never male any reply. Aud yet tho
dominant idea ol the Italian Government had
been clearly Unit ol deemm; aud carryinsron
a great national war. By what causes was Italy
prevented from giving eil'ect to this idea? By
the desire o France to keep in check both
Italy and Prussia, a desire piompting the
French efforts to localize ihe war as much as
possible. Iu Germany the etlorts of France did
not meet with the deatred success. It was
otherwise in Italy, where assurances were ob
tained that the war should be reduced as much
as possible to the proportions of a series of mere
skirmishes, and where a pledge was given by
Austria thut in the event of her being victo
rious she would not pass the Miucio. The eilortt
of France were seconded by Kngland, our
diplomatists having received instructions to do
all in their power after the war appeared inevi
table to localize it as much as possible. .Now it
is evident that such plan wbs wholly at variance
with the plans and interests ol Prussia, which
bad in view, not the securing of this or thatplece
of territory, but the breaking upot the Auatriun
Empire; tor if Austria possessed the certainty of
the war on the Italian side being thus localized
she would have let t just troops enough to hold
the lortretses iu tho Venitiau territory,
and would then have thrown the whole
weight of her armies on her German
foes. The other Italian Generals com
pletely shared the views ot Prussia, foresaw the
inconveniences and dangers ot a localized war,
and attempted to fuse their own convictions
into the mind of General La Marmora. But was
it to be expected that he would accept the ad
vice of his brother generals? Such was the
slate of matters the war was on the point of
breaking out; within two or three days was to
be held the hnal council of war, deciding ou the
plan of the campaign, and the Prussian minister
apprehensive ot the consequences to both Italy
and Prussia should the former determine on
carrying on a localized war and still more,
should an attack be made on the Quadrilateral,
a point certain to entail failure, determined, at
least, to relieve both bis Government and him
self from the responsibility ot a wrong de
cision. Accordingly Count d'Usedom summed
up in a despatch the precise points which
lor several weeks had been the subject
- of dally discussion between General La
Marmora, General Bernhaard and himself. It
must ant be forgotten that General La Marmora
had all this time been holding, and at the very
moment was still holding, the portfolio of
Foreign Affairs, and that Count D'Usedom, us
representative ot Prussia at the Court of
Florence, hud been under the daily necessity of
conferring with him ou the political questions
from which the military questions were, at such
a crisis, absolutely inseparable. When General
La Marmora complains that he, a commander-in-chief,
received sueh a military communica
tion from a diplomatist, be strangely overlooks
the fact of his being at that time a diplomatist
himself, and required in his diplomatic
capacity to treat with his brother minister
on the great interests affecting the two
countries. As to ttie form of the despatch, it
was a straightforward, business-like paper,
with no beating about the bush, which
called a spade a spade, and sought to impress
upon an ally jut at the outbreak of the war
matters ot the most itol importaaco to the
State which the writer represented as well as to
the State of which General La Marmora com
manded the forces. Well, what did Geueral La
Marmora do with this document ? lie shelved
it sui:h is his on admission his Justification
being ibat he took alarm at a document of such
importance bclue transmitted through two
diplomatic chancelleiies. I am iniorn.ed that
Count D'UVdoui bus expressed himself m very
stn ng terms about this compl'tiut of General
Lh Marruoia, Hnd has observed that, having
ported confidence in the gentleman aitached
to the Prussia Chancellery, he hud taken for
granted an equal conddeuce by General La
Marmora in tho Commeudatore Cerruti, the
only ollicial in the Italiuu Chancellery who
would bavo seen ho note belore it reached
Geueral La Marmorai bands.
Such 1b tho real bisiory of the diolomatic note
rpad by General La Warniora to tho Chamber of
Deputies, una repitbonted by him as uu attempt
made by Prussia on the vtcy eve of the cam
paign to dicta'e to Italy certain strategical
plans, about which neither tte statesuuMi nor
the generals of IUly had been previously con
sulted. It was, your readers w,n perceive,
about as much the reverse of ai this a aor
paper could possibly be, for it us only the
summary of numerous discussions that had
already taken place, and, so fo speak, unbodied
a warning and a protest, in which th other
Italian (.enerals opposed to General La Mar-
maras views heartily sympatnizea. oeneratLa

The Prussian Minister of War, Uerr Albert
Tbcorior Erail von Boon, wrote previous to the
jear 1869, since which be has occupied his post
in the Cabinet, a number of hlgnly esteemed
treatise on geography and ethnology, which
are looked upon as standard works of instruc
tion, aud have been published la numerous
editions. Born In the year 1803. in the Pome
ranian town and fortress of Kolbenr. he re
ceived bis education at the military academies
of Culm and of Berlin; was then
appointed instructor at the came;
in 1833 to the command of the Topographical
Bureau, In 1835 to the staff, In 1812 tutor of
Priuca Frederick Charles in geography and
tatlcs, sccompauyinir In 1840 this Prince to the
University of Bonn, and in 1848 chief of the
staff of the 8th army corps. In i860 he was
made colonel, 1850 major-general, 1850 lieu-tenant-central,
and is at ptesent a lull general
and member ot the Belchstair, representing a
Breslau city district. Alter this brief sketch of
the author's position, some extracts fro n his
"Manual of Political Geography," which has
lust appeared in a twelfth edition, and brought
lip to the present jear, may be found inter
esting. Of England he says: Nest to slgni5cant,
almost republican rights of the lowet cla-sej
we perceive a sirict upholding of the privileges
ol the high-born even up to the throne. Urea',
wealth ot organic life iu all public atlairs coun
teracts that which is obsolete. Permaueut party
strile favors not only egotistic tendcucics, but
also public welfare. The system of administra
tion, the judiciary and military management, all
are based apon the history ol the country, upon
custom and practice, and not upou theorem. For
this reason we observe, notwithstanding certain
limited views, immense multiformity In every
branch of public lite. Tue finances show an
inexhaustible supply of resources couoled with
an extravauaut national debt. The army of the
land, not numerous, without systematic organ!
zation, mostly consisting of the breadless and
lazy, corresponds, however, owing to its ex
ternal discipline and sustained by national
spirit, to the most diversified and difficult de
mands, while the better Bituatcd of the nation
disdain tervlce and hove jet to develop and
give proof of the efficiency of militia.
Of the Government ot France the author says:
-After the revolution of 1818, in consequence of
which the inviolabln monarch with his charte
verilc was forced to give way to a President
elected by the fickle nation and to a republican
constitution, the latter has been set aside sio.je
the coup d'etat of December 2, 1851. Tne liberty
of the sovereign people was then limiied to a
very narrow measure, as accorded by the new
constitution of January li. 1852, eranted by
the absolutely ruling President, now heredi
tary Kmperor of the French, who has
not since deigned to increa e, except nomi
nally, these liberties. Though the people
are allowed by this constitution some
s bare in the management of public aifilrs, yet
In reality, even after tho concessions af'cr'iml8
made, whUh are without hardly nn exception
out apparent ones, the whole legislative as well
as executive power rests solely in Uu; hands of
the Chief of the State. ... A modification
of the already very respectable and well-trted
army establishment has recently tafeen place.
Its purpose 13 to furnish tho army the main
prop ol the Impenul poer with a numerous
and well trained reserve for a war, and to im
prove the orguijizaiioii of the militia. Tue gene
ral liability to s?rve in the army is adhered to,
but it is limiteJ. as heretofo-.e, by tho privilege
of luruishing substitutes.

Old Londost I. If.
In the review of a book et. tilled "The Memo
rials of London ami Loudon Lite iu the Thir
teenth, Fourteenth, and Fiitoenth Centuries
beinu a scries of kXtracts, Local, bocial, and Po
litical, from the Karly Archives of tde City of
l.ou Jon A. D. 1270-1411), ' the London A'lienwum
has some remarks upon old Loudou Lire, from
Taken us a whole, the London clergy of this
period were ot that quality which may be
equally well described under two opposite terms.
They wrie otten bothf'osi and toose. They were
to be found iu places where houest. men should
not be found, and their gallantry was of a sort
which did not disdain to pay homage to muthr
cucc. A vast deal of bad blood must have been
engendered by some ot the doings of these gen
tlemen of the "good old times." At the same
time, while some swallowed the camel, others
strained at the gnat; and it is almost laughable
to see, when serious delinquencies were utmost
the rule then prevailing, a remonstrance issued
by the ecclesiastical authorities, especially ad
dressed to the bar bers, who, it appears, wcro
wicked enough on Sundays to trim .he bearJs,
and polls ot people who cared to look decent,
ai d holiday like on going to masa.
In the year 1347, the first Coatuon Council of
Loudon was elected. Among the names of
members that have since become famous are
those of Bicon and Walpole. Laurence de
Braghhyuge is that ol a man whoso descend
ants are as numerous as the sund upon the sea
shore. The Bragging family has its branches
all over the world. Some ot the' members (tuere
are 133) appear to have bad no surnames, aud
are designated from the sigas of their houses
houses not being then numbered or from some
eouollv explanatory distiuctiou. Thus we have
Thomas atle (at the) Vjne, Nicholas alte Gate,
Godlrey atte Swau, Stephen atle tioite, and so
on. One Common Councilman is set down as
Stephen atte Conduit, but an Alderman of the
same locality has the nobler prefix, and is regis
tered as 'Keynald de Conduit."
These Aldermen, in those old days, were
almost sacred personages. Heaven expressly
descended to take part in their proceedings.
When a Mayor was to be elected, the Aldermen
shut themselves up, like Cardinals professing to
wait for the will of GoJ in th election of a
Pope, and when they presented the city poten
tate to the citizens they protested that he had
been chosen in obedience to the inspiration of
the Holy Spirit." The hazy continental idea of
the Lor Muire being a sort of sacred and poten
tial somebody is perhaps a tradition of the
interest which Heaven once wus supposed to
take in him.

BOOKS EXPORTED.
If the merit of literature could be framed by its
weight iu books, the lollowing figures, showing
the exportation ot English books from this
country, would bo very satisfactory; they, at
all events, testify that this species ot literary
commerce is on the increase: In 1853, t'.ieie
were 32,781 cwt. of bo'iks exported; in 1804,
34.087 cwt.; in 1S05, 3!l,528; in 1800, 48,581; and
in 1807, 49,'JCC.

There are fifty newspapers big and little,
published iu the colony of Victoria, wuich hive
hiibeito been denendent on imported paper for
their periodical appearance. But now there is
actually a paper mill at work near Melbourne,
manufacturing what statiouers call an article
very suitable for newspapers. This Is a com
mencement ot mechanical enterprtst which
doubtless will count for something iu the
history of our antipodes, and furnish to that
New Zealander, w ho is some slay to contemplate
the rums of Lt udon, au additional topic of
self-glorihcatlon. Belore many years are over
our paper makers will find tho Australians
computing with them in all the markets where
paper is bought and sold. Another note
worthy fact is the opening of a woolca cloth
factory at Geelong, and a first sale of its woolen
goods for more than X30U0. Tho inhabitants of
the town were so elated at this success thitiiO
of them ordered euth a suit of the native cloth.
Atd so ihe march of civilization g ies on. urnl
'factory hands" are to increase aud multiply
in Australia until Geelous alaall become the

JOUN STUART MILL,
The British Quarterly, for July, says:
The admiration which Mr. Mill has awakened
for himself, both nersonallv and as a thluker.
has found tor itself a most honorable and well
deserved expression In his election for West
minster, a position which we trust he will be
long spared lo enjoy. Men of his independent,
vide, subtle cast of thought ure absolutely
sealed in the Senate of our laud -nut merely
because of the light taat they can contribute In
the discussion of national questions, but aWo of
the light they themselves can derive for the;
correction ol theoretic and one-sided conclusions
of ttelrown, and which are simply what litre
been termed "idols of the cave." Already,
vnss we are mistaken, Mr. Mill has receive!
some little benefit in this way, In exchange for
thi benefit which he has undoubtedly conterred.
