FRFINVII OPINION ON TIM WAR.-A little
while ago, the proposed w.ir in ftaly was de
cidedly unpopular in France, or, at least, ft
was so represented to be by the Bnglish
journals, to which, unfortunately, we are
confined for the greaterpart of our continemi

martial people, and the first tap of the drum
arouses all their' courage and enthusiasm.—
