" So much for the law ; now as to the practice. Mr. Wheaton says, in his history of the " Modern law of Nations :" "The first war of the French Revolution originated in the application, by the allied Powers, of the principle of armed intervention to the internal affairs of France, for the purpose of checking the progress of her revolutionary principles and the extension of her military power. That this was the avowed motive of the Powers allied in the Continental war of 1792 will be apparent fr...om the examina- tion of historical documents. " He says again : " That the measures adopted by Austria, Russia, and Prussia, at the Congress of Troppau and of Laybach, in respect to the Neapolitan revolution of 1820, were founded on principles adapted to give the great Powers of the European continent a perpetual pretext for interfering in the internal concerns of its different States. " Mr. Wheaton, speaking of that period of time between the peace of Westphalia (1648) and that of Utrecht, of 1813, says : " Whatever disputes might arise as to its [intervention] application, the principle itself was acknowledged on all hands.
