SICILY.

The Pays and Patrie of last evening are fertile
in " Latest News." The Pays nays :
The news from Naples continues to be reassuring. The
expulsion of M. La Farina from Palermo is considered at
Naples sa a favourable symptom for the alliance between
the Neapolitan and Turin governments. Y. de Is Greece,
the interim Minister of the Interior at Naples, has been
seat to Paris to submit, as it is said, the intentions of
Panels IL to the Emperor, both on the subject of reforms
in the Neapolitan states, and as to the policy of the King
with a view to the general interests of Italy. It is thought
that the envoys who will bear the proposals re-
lative to the alliance to Turin, all wait for the
return of M. de la Greece. The latter person-
age has arrived in Paris, and will go to London to
confer with Lord John Russell. M. de la Greece is permit-
&By known to the Emperor, and lived for a lung while in
England as an exile. It is on these double grounds that
he has been selected to represent the constitutional govern.
meat of Naples for a special purpose at Paris and London.
The Patric, confirming the statement of the Pays
that nothing will be done by the Neapolitan envoys
at Turin until the result of M. de la ()recta's mis-
sion to Paris and Landon is known, adds that in
the meanwhile it has been agreed that Piedmont
will use her influence in such a way as to favour
the pacific establishment of a constitutional regime
iu Naples.

Both the Pays and the Patiie contradict, as
wholly false and absurd, a statement in the Military
Turin Gazette that the French Minister-of-War
had ordered generals oommanding the different
military divisions to refuse leave of absence to
officers " unless for the purpose of taking service
under Garibaldi."

The Pays gives the somewhat important intelli-
gence that the Prince of Syracuse having been
prevented by " private reaming" from accepting
the command of the Neapolitan National Guard,
the Prince Ischit3lla has been appointed in his
place.

According to the Pattie, the two vessels alluded
to by the last telegram as having gone over to
Garibaldi were not ships of war, but merchantmen
freighted by the Neapolitan government, and which
abandoned their contract because Garibaldi made
them an offer, and the Neapolitan government has
tent to Marseilles to take up two other ships to re-
place them.

THE POPE AND PIEDMONT.
ROHE, dna 14.

The Pope in a mnsistory held to-day pronounced

Piedmoutese government on acoouut of the arrest
and condemnation of the bishops of Pisa, Imole,

Duchies and the Legations to Piedmont as a usur-
pation.

The two Neapolitan ministers charged with the
special mission to Turin will also proceed to Puria

A letter from Berlin of the 14th eaya :—" The
English minister at thie court, Lord Bloomfield, returned
to Berlin this morning from England. The immediate
cause of his excellency's return was the approaching sc-
couchement of the Princess Frederic William, on which oc-
casion his presence will be officially required at Pots(lain.
This event is expected to take place in a very short time.
Sir James Clark, accoucheur to her Majesty Queen Victoria,
will be present, and is expected to arrive at Potebim to-day
or to-morrow from London. The precise period of the ar-
rival of Queen Victoria is as yet uncertain, but her Majesty
le expected at the end of the present month, or beginning
of the next."

The Casette 114 s Thhlbw announces that a mar-
riage is on the eve of being celebrated between Mdlle.
Trochu, the descendant of Racine, and • young captain of
infantry in the French army. The subscription which was
opened in favour of the young orphan, and in which the
Pope and several foreign sovereigns took part, will give the

We are informed," mays the Opixion
"that the Venetian refugees ►t Florence are shoot to found
a journal, the Venezia, for the defence of their cause, M.

Saturday, a letter written, dated, and signed by the hand

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.
OCR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, MONDAY Erna's°.
Private orders have lately been given to the
French press to say as little as possible about Geri-
' bola To use an expressive French phrase it is
desired to mettre la suesrdine upon him. The Illus-
tration (Paris Illustrated Neirs)waa very nearly pre-
' vented from comila out on Saturday. The order
reached the officilief that journal just as it was
going to prase, and it so happened that all their
plates represented scenes of the Sicilian war, in
most of which Garibaldi was the principal figure.
The difficulty was only got over by erasing Gari-
baldi's name wherever it appeared in the letter-
press at the foot of the engraving. Thus " The
Interview of the Neapolitan Generals with General
Garibaldi," was in deference to the paternal advice
of the French government to its free press, changed
into "The Interview, Arc., with the Sicilian Staff,"
and so of the rest of the pictures in which Gari-
baldi's portrait appears.
Both the evening government journals say that
the state of affairs in Syria is still very aerious. The
Patric mentions that a French ship of war was
obliged to anchor within gun shot of Latakie, a
port in the pachalic of Tripoli, iu order to main-
tain tranquillity there.
The Currespoudance Butner says that "whatever
may be the intentions" of Piedmont the alliance
between that power and Naples will take place,
and that Piedmont, which has resisted for three
weeks, will be " forced to cede !" A very pretty
alliance it is likely to be if made under these
circumstances.
The Bourse, which was not affected by any tele-
grams of importauce to change the political situa-
tion of Saturday, was firm, and towards the close
of business there was more animation than in the
early part of the day. The Rents closed for account
at 69fr. 15c., with a rise of 10c., and for cash at
Saturday's price, 691 r. 10e. Mobilier rose 6fr. 25c.
The Orleans Railway rose sfr. ; Lyons, 3fr. 750. ;
Eastern, 2fr. 50e ; and Western and Northern,
lfr. 25c. each. Southern fell lfr. 25c.
I have heard some amusing particulars of a
recent sitting of the Senate. One day last week,
on the occasion of the presentation of a petition
praying that the new law against the use of false
titles might be rigorously executed, M. Amedie
Thierry proposed that the Senate should advise the
Emperor to make a large creation of nobles, giving
them all hereditary landed property. It was not
sufficient to create, timidly and by way of
exception, here and there a dukedom in
favour of a military hero ; the Napoleonic
dynasty should be supported by a regular order of
nobility chosen from among the tried friends of the
empire dynasty, and composed of civilians as well
es soldiers. Baron Dupin (brother of the Prom-
reur-General),.whoeu coronet was given him by
Louis Philippe, warmly supported the motion, and
it was for a moment supposed that it would be car-
ried. But AL de Heeckeru (an old friend of the
Emperor, and an ex-officer in the Russian service,
who attained celebrity by killing the poet
Pouschliue iu a duel) spoke with great energy on
the opposite side. At a time when questions of the
most serious nature were arising iu every part of
the world, when thrones were falling and demo-
cratic principles breaking through all opposition,
when Garibaldi, with an acute perception of the
tendency of the age, had inaugurated his dictator-
ship iu Sicily by the abolition of the title of "ex-
cellency," with which he himself had been saluted
by the Neapolitan generals, it was perfectly ridicu-
lous that the French Senate should be discussing
the revival of privileged orders which were sae's-
tially repugnant to modern France. They should
remember that if a revolution were to take place
here, the senators would be the first to be held re-
sponsible by the people for vagaries of this kind.
He urgently entreated the president, for the credit
of the Senate, nut to make this debate public, and
moved the precious question. This speech pro-
duced a great effect, and the previous question was
carried without a division.
