Content DescriptionFollowing the departure of General Lêflo, he has learned from Mr La Ferriers, the French charge d'affaires, something of the Emperor's attitude to France; is not sure what the Emperor intended by his remarks to the Count de Chambourd [Chambord] that Russia desired the French to have a republican system of government.

PS Refers to events in Tuscany and Rome and the Italian revolutionary party; shares the opinion of Count Nesselrode that Count Collanado may not go to Brussels to represent Austria; thinks Austria may be happy to allow France to retreat from the position adopted towards Italy to allow relations between Austria and Sardinia to be returned to normal.
