GARIBALDI'S EXPEDITION TO SICILY.
Att4 9:

The Patrie of this evening publishes the
following fresh details respecting General Gari-
baldi's expedition :—lndependent of the vessel
of Garibaldi, two other steamers have left Genoa,
having on board 1,400 men, consisting principally
of the former Chasseurs des Armes, Romagnols,
Lombards, and several Genoese. A fourth vessel,
it is said, left Leghorn for the same destination
as the others, And other vessels hate started from
different points, all of Which will join the
division out at sea, All these vessels; in order
to mislead the Piedmontese authorities, had
taken their papers for Malta. The expedi-
tion is reported to be organised on a
very grand scale, being provided with arms,
ammunition, provisions, and materials for a cam-
paign—in fact, with all necessary resources for sus-
taining a contest of several months. The carrying
out of the expedition requires an expenditure
which will exceed several millions. The subscrip-
tions collected in England and Italy are not consi-
derable enough to cover the expenses. The Patrie
asks who completely furnished the necessary sup-
plies of money; and adds, General Garibaldi's
expedition has greatly excited the attention of
diplomatists. The Opinione Nationale, in refer-
ence to Garibaldi's expedition, states that the
General takes with him twenty cannon.
