THE DAY'S NEWS

... The news from Naples is exciting ; and the
latest telegrams convey the long-expected intelli-
gence that an insurrection has broken out in that
capital, and that the city has been placed under
martial law. The news reaches us in a detached
form ; ap4 all that would appear clear is that
there was a popular tumult on Thursday; that in
the course of the night the people sacked the dis-
trict guard-houses, which are also the repositories
of the archives of the several quarters; and that
martial law had been proclahned in the morning.
This is doubtless the beginning of the end. It is
true that by the latest telegram order would
appear to haye been temporarily restored; but wp
must not be surprised to learn by the next intel7
ligence that the city has been bombarded, and
that the King has sought safety in flight.

Qn Saturday evening accounts were received at
the Foreign Off).,ce, from Naples, to the effect that
the Neapolitan Government had released and
given up, unconditionally, the two ships, with
their crews and passengers, which had been
captured by their war cruisers. It will be recol-
lected that one of these vessels (the Utile, steam
tug) had the Sardinian flag, and had in tow the
.-American ship Catherine Jane, with 900 men and
several stand of arms, bound to Malta, from the
port of Genoa. They were captured on the high
seas, and not in Neapolitan waters, and the three
Governments of Sardinia? ngland, and the
United States are supposed to have all interested
themselves in procuring their. release.
From Sicily we have nothing later of special
importance. Two columns of Garibald's troops,
one of them under command of Colonel Turr, had
however lea Palermo for Messina, and we may
soon bear of severe kghping-ii?. that direction.
Naples has concentrated there the whole military
force which she possesses in the island, and six
vessels bringing additional troops had arrived
there on the morning of the 24th. There must
now be in the forts aboUt 25,000men,--an army
