But it is lese widely known that the war is to be directed egainst Austria, and that it is to involve a revolution in Hungary and a death struggle for Venetls. This is no secret plan of actien, for never was apy contemplated event of the kind more openly declared by all concerned. We leara that the Italian army will econ oumber more than two hundred regiments, and that the ab- sorbing desire of every man in them, a few of the Neapolitan corps excepted, is to pursue the detested foreigners out of the Quadrilateral. The Warsaw Conference, we koow, resulted in No programme for immediate action, but the Govereicns who met there expressed a mutaal willingnees to render each other assistance by the occupation of strategical posi- tions in territories not belonging to the occupying sovereign, in tha event of a French war and a general fneurrection o' their subject races. And it is probable that the Wlies of Austria have consented to hold her great fortresses for her if harassed by a con- junction of the French and revolutionary troops. In this coming war between Anstria and Italy it is hard to say whether France or the Northern Powers will remain neutral or no’; but the policy of Austria ia dealing with [taly and Buogary at the outset of hostilities wonld have great effect in determining tbem in their course of ation {+ is clear rhat [taly, unaid ed by Hungary, contd do nothing in such a war; and the question therefore arises: what does Hungery want to fight for, and is she jus- tifed in her demands?

The barbors cf Chiriqui, on the Atlantic side, are described to be so large, deep and well pro- tected that vessels of the largest size oan ride in safety there. On the Pacific side, the har- bor of Golfito is reported by Lieutenant Jeffers to be unsurpassed In natural facilities. There is no bar or other obstruction at the entrance, which is upwards of half a mile in width and about a mile in depth, with an excellent an- chorage in good holding ground, in five, seven and tweive fathoms of water. This outer har- bor is separated by a sand spit, a file in length by a few feet in width (around the northern extremity of which there is an excellent channel, eight huudred yards wide, with not less than five fathoms water), from the inner harbor, four miles in length, with an average breadth of one mile. The inner harbor has about a equare mite of anchorage, with a depth of five fathoms, sufficient for the largest ships, and about three square miles of anchorage for vessels of smaller size. Dr. Evane, the geologist, reports that the average depth of the coal seams im the vicinity of the Chiriqui Lagoon and the islands adjacent is seventy-three and a half feet, varying in quali- ty ip different locali‘ies, from lignites of woody Structure to semi-bituminous and anthracite coal, The best exposures of coal are to be found on the Changanola river.
