      Royal Speeches—Sardinia And Prussia. Two...

      ROYAL SPEECHES—SARDINIA AND PRUSSIA . Two royal manifestoes have been put forward this week , each of which has its particular significance and meaning in the present critical condition of continental affairs . The King of Sardinia has addressed his Parliament and people in accents not to be forgotten . Though conscious of his inability to wrestle unaided with the gigantic despotism of Austria , Victor Emmanuel declares unmistakably that he sympathises deeply with the sufferings of Italy , and that he holds himself in readiness for he events that may arise out of her condition . This is as plain an offer to take the , lead in a war of liberation as could well be made under all the circumstances of the case . It was not to be expected that popular revolt would take place before it was generally known that the Government of Piedmont was prepared and willing to cooperate with an organised force ; nor would even this alone have probably been deemed sufficient without some indication beyond the Alps that France was ready to interpose oil the side of national freedom . The ambiguous words uttered by Louis Napoleon on the first day of the year , in presence of the whole diplomatic body assembled at the Tuileries , were hardly in themselves enough to decide so momentous a question . But , followed up as they have now been by the pregnant declarations of the King of Sardinia , they arc calculated unquestionably to bring to maturity all the disaffection that has so long been ripening under Austrian misrule . ' Bearing in mind the cony fidentiql conferences between the French Emperor and M , Cavour in September last at Plombieres , the many proofs of growing alienation between the Courts of Vienna and Paris that have since occurred , the absolute refusal of Sardinia to entertain any project of alliance or friendship with Austria , and the avowed intimacy of the diplomatic relatious established between the Cabinets of Paris and larin , it was difficult not to believo that combinations were forming inconcompatiblo with the peaceful retention of its dominions in Italy by the House of Hapsburg . This conviction we have more than once repeated during the last three months 5 and an event is now about to ocour whioh puts as it were the seal on all such anticipations : we alludo to the approaching marriage of Prince Napoleon Jerome with the Princess Clotilda of Savoy . So significant has tho last-mentioned faofc been considered that when authoritatively announced in Paris on Wednesday last , tho funds , which had bogun to rally a little from the depression caused by Victor Emmanuel ' s speech , fell rapidly again , and have oontinuod to fall without material recovery over since . Meanwhila tlioro 19 no disguise at Vienna about tho apprehensions
