The Pope has broken off Diplomati e Relations with Sar­diniaThis is most probably a "coup monte' by the ennemies of Sardinia and will any likely be followed by Excommuni-cation or some other Religious Dodgfe; to frighten the King.
But His Majesty should recollect what Henri IV said when He turned Catholic ''Un Royaume vaut bien une messe".
The King may very well say "Il Regno d'Italia vale una scomm unica ( sic)'..
But He ought to be prepared for the artifìce of the Priests and remember that a little courage will render him master of the si tua ti on.
Carignan will of course immediately organize the Country to resist foreign aggression.
The Cardinal Antonelli threatens to attack Central ItalyI sincerely hope he may, for he is certain to get a good licking.
England will accept Carignan as She has already accepted
the hoisting of the Sardinian Flag, and Armorial hearingsWhat
you do do quickly.
Yours ever T rr j
