Assembly disavowing its Regent ; the Assembly itself proscribed by the Government in whose territory it sits ; Baden and Bavaria insurgent, and warred on by Prussia ; Russia and Austria sustaining reverses in Hungary ; Hungary demanding the neutrality of Turkey, which acquiesces ; Austria making way upon Venice, which continues to resist with Roman fortitude under the dictatorship of Manin. Conflict everywhere, settled i power nowhere, cross interests starting up in every direction.
