AUSTRIA.
Austria fought to retain her
Italian possessions and to pre
vent the union of the1 various lit
tle kingdoms, duchies and cities
that now compose united Italy.
Austria used every means at
hand to prevent the gathering to
gether of the petty Herman king
doms under the leadership of
Prussia into the Herman empire.
It is conceivable that with a more
far-seeing policy Austria might
have been the head of the Herman
federation.
Can Austria possibly gain as
much by opposing the union of
the Balkan slates, exciting Hie
undying enmity of Bulgaria,
Greece. Servia and Montenegro,
as she could by making these al
lies her friends? The rising of a
new Balkan power seems to he |
inevitable, and if will be a power
not to lie despised.
