GENERALS CIALDINI AND GARIBALDL

The following is the text of General CiaWises
letter to Garibaldi, of which a telegraphic Cum-
nary was published on Tuesday :
Turin, April 21.
General,—From the day I first knew you I have been
openly and sincerely your friend, sal I have been So what
it was a subject of blame in many persons' eyes either to be
so or to acknowledge it. I have frankly applauded your
triumphs • I have admired your military energy and °rip*
nality. Whether among your friends or my owe, in public
and in private, I have always and everywhere testified
my high esteem for you, and I have admitted that
I could not have attempted the enterprise which yea
so skilfully achieved at Marsala. M 7 confidence in you was
so great, that when General Sirton uttered fatal words is
the ptrliameut, I retained a certainty that you would feel
the necessity and find the means of contradicting them ; and
when I heard that you had quitted Cowers, landed at
Genoa, and were at. Turin, I believed that you came for
that, and that alone.

Your reply to the address of the Milanese workmen, your
in the Chamber, have painfully but completely
ed me. You are not the man I thought you ; You
are not the Garibaldi I loved. With that illusion has die.
appeared my affection for you. lem no longer your friend,
and I pass distinctly and openly into the mute of your
political opponents.
You have dared to put yourself on a level with the Kies,
affecting to speak of him with the familiarity of a comisd&
It is your intention to place yourself above social customs, by
presenting yourself to the Chamber in a strange areas;
above the government, by treating the ministers as traitors,
because they have not given themselves up to vou ; above
parliament, by loading with reproaches the deputies who
do not think after your huhiou ; above the country, by
wishing to drive it where and bow you choose.
Well, general, there are men who are not disposed to hear
all that, and lam of the number. As the enemy of all
tyranny, whether it wear black or red, I shall combat bathe
uttermost even yours. I know the orders you gave. you
and yours, to Colonel Tripoti to receive us in the .tbruzsi
with musket shots. I know the words spoken by General
Sirtori in parliament; I know yours; I follow out with
certainty these successive indications, and I arrive at the
inmost thought of your party. It wishes to make itesll
master of the country and the army, and threatens us..ul
the opposite event, with civil war. lam not in a prime
to know what the country thinks of it, but I can affirm that
the army does not fear your threats, that it fears only your
domination.
General, you accomplished a great, a wonderful enter`
prise with your volunteers ; you have reason to least of it;
but you are wrong in es;„ Berating its real effects.

were in a bad position on the Volturno when we unwed.
It was not you who took Capua, Gaeta, Messina, and Cill`
tells ; it was not you, but we, who beat, dispersed. and
made prisoners 56,000 Bourbon soldiers. It is therefor,
incorrect to say that the Two Sicilion were entirely deli-
vered by your arms. In your legitimate pride do not for-
get, general, that our army and our fleet took some part II
it ; that they destroyed more than half the army of the
former kingdom of Naples, and that they took the four
strongholds of the state.
I °occlude by telling you that I have no claim or autho-
✓ity to speak to you in the name of the army ; hot 1 think
I know it well enough to be awe that it shares the feeling
of grief and aversion which our insults and thaw of your
blends have raised in me.—!am, with the greatest eau'
&nation, your very devoted servant,
Dom° CuLur.c.
