THE SICILIAN INSURRECTION.

The Post's Paris correspondent telegraphs that
in Sicily everything is going on well for Gari-
baldi.

A service of small steamers, French and
English, has been established, between Naples
and Palerrno.

The' news from Sicily, received in Paris on
Monday, of an affair near Palermo, in which the
troops of Garibaldi were said to have been beaten,
excited considerable misgivings in connection
with the fact that he had remained stationary so
long, as uninterrupted progress is a necessary con-
dition to the success of an insurrection. The
information communicated by the Neapolitan
government cannot, however, be relied upon with-
out corroborative evidence, and it is known that
reinforcements of men, with arms and money for
Garibaldi, have sailed from Leghorn or Genoa, if
!lot from both places, for Sicily. Dttring Gari-
baldi's forced or voluntary inaction the royalists
would also receive reinforcements.

[Official.] NAPLES, May 28.
The Sicilian bands are leaving the troops of
Garibaldi, who have again been beaten at Piana,
having had many killed and many taken prisoners.
The insurgents also lost one cannon and are in
full flight, being pursued by the Royal troops
beyond Corleone. The provinces are tranquil,
and the revolutionists are discouraged.
TURIN, May 29.
The official gazette of to-day publishes a de-
spatch from Naples announcing the arrival of an
English steamer at that place, which brings the
following news :—The insurgents have entered
Palermo. A considerable part of the population
have risen against the royal troops. The city is
bombarded by sea and land. The bombardment
commenced on Sunday morning; and it
time
that the firing continued at the time of the
steamer's departure.

MARSEILLES, May 29.
A letter from Naples, dated the 26th instant,
explaining the asserted success of the royal troops
at Parco, states that two strong columns, pro-
vided with artillery, placed the Garibaldians
befvfeen two fires. The loss of the bands is said
to have been 160 ; the insurgents fell back upon
Piana. An English steamer has arrived here
with news asserting that Garibaldi was not in
the action, but at Misilmeri, enrolling recruits.
The attack on Palermo had been deferred until
half the inhabitants of the island bad been
Organised. Other letters from Naples state that
the King had recalled four old generals from
Sicily, among whom in, particular is General
Landi, and had sett- younger generals in their
place, . particularly ..General Marra. The King
had ordered a large concentration of troops, and
an active carrying on of military operations.
The population of Palermo is greatly agitated.
Telegraphic communication now exists between
Marsala and Malta.
Authentic news has• reached us ( Globe ), to
the effect that the Sicilian insurgents have pos-
session of great part of Palermo. Many of the
troops have risen against their Neapolitan com-
manders. The forts and ships of war have fired
on the city, but the fire is said to have ceased.
This intelligence comes from Naples, under date
of yesterday, May 28.
It is asserted that the solemn entry of the
division Bazaine has been adjourned, as the
Emperor will be absent from Paris at the end of
the week.

VIENNA, May 29.
The official Donauzeitung publishes the follow-
ing telegram, dated Naples, May 27th :—The
bands of Garibaldi have been totally routed.
Garibaldi himself is endeavouring to embark.
The rebels accuse each other of treachery.

SWITZERLAND.
GENEVA, May 29.
The voting at St. Galle, for the acceptance or
rejection of the new Constitution, was terminated
yesterday. An ultramontane tendency caused
its rejection by 20,669 against 18,330 votes.

THE INTERCEPTED LETTER.
The Prussian Gazette contradicts the state-
ments recently circulated by the German papers
as 'to a conversation between the Minister of
Foreign Affairs and the French Ambassador at
Berlin, touching an intercepted letter addressed
to the Prince Consort of England.

THE EASTERN QUESTION.
The Prussian Gazette admits that the treaty of
1856 has not solved the Eastern question, but
has only adjourned it. It was clear that Russia
would on the first opportunity 'endeavour to free
herself from the onerous conditions imposed on
her by the treaty. At the present moment no one
can see clearly whal, are the projects and the
objects of Russia. Neither can it be stated
positively to what extent France has given her
assent to; them; but it is necessary to
watch
events with the greatest attention, to take mea-
sures against the non-observation of the treaty,
and to count on the fact that an understanding
between two great Powers does not constitute an
understanding of Europe.
