(Biased) Darner°,
Chief of the staff of General Garibaldi.
A second engagement was announced es having
taken place near Fraseati.
Yesterday it was stated that M. Rsyneval bad left
Gaeta for Rome. It appears that the Pope, as-
temitheil at the resistar,ce offered. by tke Roman
population, is desirous of a suspension of hostilities,
and has requested M. Rsyneval to act in this nesse
with General Ondinot. However, it was still sup-
posed in Rome on the llth that General Ondinot in-
tended to enter by force, which caused a good dell of
excitement, seeing that the French prisoners had all
been just set free.
The pupils of the French School of Arts have ar-
rived at Florence in safety. The French lustily deny
that the pupils had riled for arms to fight.
Intelligence from Bologna, to the 12th inst., is pub-
lished in the Italian journals, and states that on that
day the townspeople still held out. The Anstriaan
hoped to reduce the place by the 14th. They bad
cut through the aqueducts leading water into the
town. There were about 2,000 regular Roman troops

in Bologna.
The following we/ honed at Bologna on the 12th of
May, at 4 p.m. :

Bolognese !—A furious faction, which I dries not to eon-
head with the people of Bologna, has maintained for four
days a foolish defeat*, but which, notwithstanding the
obstinacy with which it is conducted, must be overcome.
Four great powers have assumed the responsibility of it.
You are still In time te obtain favour and indulgence by
immediate submission to lawful authority.
Once more, I promise to spare your city, and and to

I leave to your own understanding to choose between
these my words of indulgence or the terrible force of arm..
But, whatever be your determination, I expect to know it

NAPLES.—The following is our correspondent's
letter :
NAPLES, Mar 11.
The Spitfire came in from Palermo yesterday, having
left Sicily on the 9th inst.; I am therefore in possession
of further particulars. Scoedato, a man of the moun-
tains, well known in the early revolutionary move
meats, directs the party who have sworn to defend
Palermo, whilst the municipal authority is presided
over by a Baron Rises, whose life appears to be in
some danger, as be is already suspected to be in com-
munication with Filargieri.
A slight engagement has taken place outside
Palermo between the Sicilians and the royal troops,
which resulted in the retreat of the Neapolitans
to Messelemeno, a town about four miles from the
city. The fighting party is charts, and, my cor-
respondent assures roe all will lig tto the last. The
Neapolitan steamers have not ventured to approach
very near Palermo, as the forts are well supplied and
manned by gunners constantly on the look-out.
Palermo, considering the state of thing!, is remark-
ably quiet. I have received several letters which
severe me of the determination on the part of the
amen to raid. The flaming addresses sent in from
aliment villages to Mangier' are "got up to
