    Record Of The Week. Home And Colonial. C...

    In either ease the result has been satisfactory either .. the land forces unaided hare gained a signal triumph ,. or else the French interference , it ever made ; has been withdrawn . As the week opened the probability certainly was that French intcrference had taken place at first . \ v ith regard to the voting on annexation , instalments had come in fromtime to time in favour of union with Sardinia . It deserves to be noticed that at Viterbo the voting was in fiivour of annexation , despite the presence of the Pope ' s body-guard of French soldiers . The final result in the kingdom of Naples was , ayes , 1 , 310 , 200 ; noes , 10 , 012 . In our number of the 25 th October , we insisted that if a people have the right to manage , their own affairs as they please , hot as some other State or some particular family may choose to dictate , they have the inclusive right of calling in another people to help them . We aro glad to see that in Lord John Russell ' s despatch to our minister at Turin , dated Russell

    the 27 th October , the same view is taken . Lord John quotes Vattel to the effect that " when a people-for good reasons take up arms against an oppressor , it is but an act of justice to assist brave men m the defence of their liberties . " And be it remembered that " an oppressor" is simply the agent ( whether a-dynasty , an oligarchy , or an individual usurper ;) who seeks to prevent a people from disposing of themselves as they choose , who stands in the way of self-government , and that " the liberties " alluded to can mean nothing but the right of a people to be governed how and in what way they choose , and to dispose of themselves as they please . Lord John Russell , therefore , emphatically says in the document before us , " that the Italians themselves are the best ; judges of their own interests . " Various were the views that were expressed as the week opened , in reference to Lord John RusselFs Italian despatch of the 27 th Oct ., one party hailing it

    with pesans of deliglit as a great State document in favour of liberalism , another " tliroWing cold Water"' upon it , a ^ the production of a timeserving trimmer , " ever ¦ •' .-. strong upion the stronger side . " The Times ( though it does not use the simile ) evidently thinks that Lord John Russell , is one of those ^ patrons" described by \ Johnson in liis letter . to Lord Chesterfield , wlip stand by , passive specu--lators of a drowning many and wiien ¦ . : lie . has reached the shore , encumber kim with help ; while the JPosf seems to 'think . ; that , for the Times to write in this way , is spmethikg : like Mr . Pbt reproaching / IVIr . fettleforsableness : of ' hue > . But admitting this -were so , : it does not take tlie sting out of . the . Times ' , remark's , ' ' merely to show that it is charging its pwrii "' sin upon others , if those ' others really have sinned in the same direction . Theremay be six of one to half a dozen of the other . Let us hope that in- his epistolary compositions , that

    The promised communication from Austria , alluded to in pur last , h-ns appeared . . Count Rechbcrg has addressed a _ circular rip to on the AVavsaw- interview to the repFesentativos of Austria abroad . Tlii 3 note states that the object , of the interview was to bind move closely the personal and friendly relations of the three Princes presjent , and to ceucert the principles for the regulation of their conduct in view of certain eventualities . Count Rechberg , without entering upon any details aa to the nature of the arrangements concluded , announces that a perfect understanding was established . He , however , umlces it clearly undcrslood that non-intervention in the affairs of Italy was agreed upon , and that although anxious to support the principles of order and European equilibrium , the three northern Courts will do nothing which might provoke a war . - ' . .

    The relations of France and Switzerland are , at this , present writing , in pretty much the same state as when we last wrote . The representative of the former state , do Target , is not to return to tlie latter ; but a charge-d ' affairs is left to take charge" of aiTau-s in his stead . In a free state men are emulous of serving their country as members of its legislature , as in England and America ; but in Spain it is the exemption from such service , not the service itself that is coveted ; at least such is the ostensible , inference- from tlie Spanish Congress having exonerated military deputies , who have been rewarded for services in Africa , from being Ha hie to re -election . forts have reached

On the ¦ 17 th a bridge was thrown over the Peiho , in spite of a heavy fire from the enemy ; and 011 the 21 st the forts were carried by assault , after a desperate re sistanceon the part of tha Tartars . * T \ vo hundred and fifly English and two hundred French were either killed or . wounded ,, including an officer . Of the enemy 1000 were killecl , their bodies bring found in the first fort taken , a general-in-chief being among the number ; the remaining forts surrendered one after another ; The same day the tvhple country as far as Tien-tsin was in possession of tlie Allies , who size and calibreThe
