I don't agree in this.

I think that the unity of the State should be asserted with a strong hand, and the South forced to pay taxes and submit to law.

Swab [Schwabe] told me that a friend of hers had travelled with Klapka from Constantinople, and that K.had said, 'there would not be war till next year,--diplomacy would take its course for the present year.' Perhaps he did not speak sincerely.

I can't understand how the Austrian provinces will hold out in mere talk for twelve months more.

Do you mark the tone of the 'Opinion Nationale' on Austria, and about Hungary being a natural ally of France, and also what is said in the 'Morning Chronicle,' which always more or less reflects the face of the French Government?
Then it seems to me that the Emperor's speech is not eminently pacific, though he 'desires peace.' I hear from rather good authority what I hope is possible, that Teliki accepted as a condition of his liberation, not simply that he would not personally act against Austria, but that he would use his endeavours to prevent any action on the part of his compatriots.
