THE lOLUCTORAIi ADDRESS OF THtt SOCIKTY OF THE FIMKNDS OF ITALY . Tho Society of tlio I'YniikIh of Italy Iiavo ihmikmI nn Address on tho duty ofelo <; l . oi'N , from which we extract . Lho following questions , whieli they consider mny lie usefully put to cjinilidnli'H : ¦ 1 . The topic of tSng f unit's duty with regard , to those ciihcs in which there in a distinct interference of one power to put down a spontaneous movement of liberty in ( mother and imie / ienilent country . Tho iiiohI . notorious recent o * - jimploH of Muh , aro the interference of Hie Absolutist ; power of Russia to crunk tho libortioH of Hungary , and tho tliwtardly iutorlurojuco of ifronce to feature tho JPopo and
put down the Roman Republic . But there is no doubt that we shall have more examples of the same thing before long . Russia , France , and Austria are now jointly the masters of Europe , Russia holding the supreme place ; and there is no doubt that , whenever it seems desirable , these powers , or any one of them , or any two of them , will interfere with the internal politics of any other European country , without the least scruple . No respect for the socalled principle of non-interference , which we talk about m this country , restrains such a power as Russia . Absolutism tends to conquest and interference , and it is the known belief of tho Emperor Nicholas with respect to himself , that his mission is to put down constitutional Government , by his diplomacy or by his armies , over Western Europe . Such being the case , it becomes the Government of this countrv to have a clear and definite understanding as to
what line of procedure they will adopt in the case ot a repetition by Russia or any other Absolutist power of the wrong perpetuated against Hungary . It becomes electors , too , to elicit from candidates an expression of opinion on this point ; and without going into too abstract a discussion of the whole principle of non-interference , to compel them to give an answer to such a question as this : — "In the case of Russia or any other despotic state interfering to put down a spontaneous movement of liberty in another and independent state , as -was done by Russia in the case of Hungary , would you , use your utmost endeavours to induce the Government of this country to protest against the interference , to employ all the influence of England as a nation to prevent or defeat it , and to take the indepen- ^ dence of the country attacked under efficient protection ?" 2 . The topic of England ' s duty in those cases where a exercise of its oivn energies
people by the independent upon its own Government , frees itself from domestic thraldom , and establishes a new Government by a revolution . Rome is here also an . example in point ; but more special still is the case of Sicily . The relations between this country and Sicily have always been very intimate ; and if there is any people who have particular claims on British support , it ' is the Italians . There could be no better case than that of Sicily , therefore , to cite in connexion with such a question as this at election meetings : — " Will you maintain , the independent right of every people to order its own internal government as it thinks fit ? and vrill you , as a consequence , insist upon the duty on the part of our Government , of instantly and unreservedly recognising , by official acts , a popular Government set up ly internal revolution in any country , even though that Government should be of a republican form ?"
3 . The topic of England ' s past conduct and probable future procedure in the matter of Rome , the French occupation , and the Temporal Papacy . —Although the case of Rome fails to be considered under the two previous heads , it is so important and peculiar that it may well have a distinct head to itself . We are convinced that the country at large is profoundly ignorant of the extent to which Great Britain is implicated in the iniquity of restoring the Papal Government at Komo ; and we beg the earnest attention of electors while we quote a brief sentence which will throw a new light on this point . The following arc the very words in which our Whig ambassador at the
French court ( Lord Normanby ) , at the time of the negotiations for French , interference to put down tho Roman republic and restore the Pope—that is , on the 19 th of April , 1849—expressed tho wishes and tho policy of the Government of Great Britain in that scandalous affair . Tho words , as quoted from the correspondence laid before Parliament , aro these : —" I ( Lord Normanby ) told M . Drouyc de Lluys ( tho French Foreign Minister ) that the object which the French Government professed to have in view—the restoration of the Fope under an improved form of Government—was precisely that which , I had always been instructed to state , was cttso that of her Majesty ' s
Government ; though , for reasons which I had then explained to hint , we had not wished to take any active share in the negotiations : ' * This passage , we repeat , ought incessantly and everywhere , on all occasions , to he quoted ; it ought ' to be learnt by heart by all citizens of Great Britain ; it ought to bo engraven , as a sentence of . shame , on a pillar of brass in Downing-Htreet ; for it represents the crimo of our land against Italy , and it reveals , in one glimpse , thai , depth of bad statesmanship , from which tho official and parliamentary mind , evon of our Whi tf administrators , has to be brought up , before England and Italy shall stand in their proper relations to each other . of from such
And to bring up the ollicial mind a country a depth , is not the work of a day or a year . The Pupal policy , with regard to our own country , and the spectacle of the horrors consequent on that very restoration of the Pope in whieli we ho hypocritically implicated ourselves , have indeed contributed to open many eyes ; perhaps there is , even now , a touch of remorse in the ollicial heart , and , at any rate , it 1 h not likely that a Whig Ambassador would again write such a passage as the foregoing wore tho name circumstances repeated now . Still we are far from any promise of such a Parliamentary or ministerial policy with regard to Italy an would answer the demands of Hterling justice ---a policy to which we could trust for the oxpiaof the fearful blunder indicated
tion , on a fitting occasion , in that Normanby despatch , and for the indemnification to Italy of the wrong ho done , by nobler conduct towards her at ' any similar juncture that may yet arise . 11 in for the electors to do their best to point the way to mich u policy ; and for thin purpose let Much questions as thi « figure prominently at all election meetings : — " Do yon disclaim the part which ' . our Government acted in the affair of the lloman Republic , and will you do your ntniti . it to make our ( hwemment indemnify to the Romans the ¦ leronif then done them , by protesting against the continued occupation of Koine by tho Wrench , and aeizini / every op ~ portunitt / for bringing about the departure of these troops from the ' tinman soil , no that the ' Romans may again deal with the Hepular 1 ' itpacy at their own trill and pleasure ?"
4 . The Refugee Question . If there is any way m which England , at the least expense of thought or trouble to herself , can serve the cause of continental freedom , it is by affording the right of asylum to political refugees—to men like Kossuth , Mazzini , and those who have been associated with them in the contest for liberty . To deny this right of asylum , or to restrict it by conditions and limitations , would be the last act of self-degradation on the part of Great Britain . Yet we know that even this right hag been put in jeopardy . Foreign courts and cabinets , and especially those of France and Austria , have had communications with our Government in regard to the refugees ; and whoever will stud y the language of Lord Derby on this point , in his opening speech as Premier , or will call to mind Lord Malmesbury and his rejected Extradition of Criminals Bill , will see ' that , notwithstanding- general assurances about " breathing the free air of England , " and the like , which no British minister could avoid , there is and will be a considerable disposition on the part of a Derby Government , or any other Government similarl y constituted , to play into the hands of foreign despotic courts , in the matter of the refugees . Let such a question , as the following , therefore , figure at the election meetings : '' Will you , do your best to maintain intact the right of this , country to afford an asylum to political refugees ? and will you oppose any attempt on the part of our Government , whether by letter-opening or espionage , or in the case of an Extradition of Criminals' Bill , to restrict or impair this ri < jht ?" 5 . The duty of England in regard to the protection of her subjects abroad . The cases of Mather and Murray ought not to be forgotten at election meetings , and a question to this effect ought to be put to candidates : — " Will you do your utmost to induce , on the part of our Government , a decided andperemptory course of action , whenever a British subject is treated zvith insult by the authorities of a despotic country ?"
