SICILY.

The Turin Gazette gives the following particulars
respecting the new Sicilian Ministers :
" Baron Joseph Natoli (Foreign Affairs) is an
eminent barrister; he was representative of the
people in the Parliament of Palermo in 1848, and
a member of the deputation who offered the crown
of Naples to the son of Charles Albert. After the
revolution he retired to Piedmont, and led a
rather secluded life. Gaetano Datta (Interior) is
a writer of considerable talent, and a first-rate la-
tinist. His principles are liberal, and his habits of
the most pacific kind. He is about 55 years of
age. Gaetano Laloggia (Public Instruction), is
celebrated as a physician, an easy writer, and an
eloquent speaker. He is a very active man, an
enemy to routine, and loves liberty for its own
sake. Francesco di Giovanni (Finance) is a clever
man of figures, and was in the administration of his
country in 1836 and 1848. His probity and intel-
ligence are above all praise. After the revolution,
notwithstanding his very limited pecuniary means,
he refused to accept any office under the Bourbon
Government, but devoted his energies to the estab-
lishment of a sulphur refinery in a remote
province."
" It appears (says a Turin letter), that Garibaldi's
conduct towards Count Amari has displeased all
those at Turin who know the merit of the Sicilian
envoy. The Count had been appointed representative
of Sicily at Turin, he consequently thought himself
above all others, and set about tho task of uniting
the dissident parties. But Dr, Bertani, an intimate
friend of Garibaldi's, has just shown the Count an
autograph letter from the Dictator, authorising him
to call upon the Charge d'Affaires to give an account
of all the sums expended or to be expended for
Sicily, and of all matters relating to that subject.
Count Amari is therefore placed in the position of
subordinate to the head of the National Society."
The Espero, of Turin, contradicts the report that
M. Lorenzo Valerio, a Piedmontese prefect, was to
leave for Sicily on a mission to Garibaldi. M.
Valerie having obtained a month's leave of absence,
resolved to spend it in Sicily, solely for private
reasons.

A letter from Turin of the Bth, in the Siecle,
says:— _ _

" The party represented by Bertani begins to
entertain serious fears of an arrangement of the
affairs of Naples, especially as the Neapolitan Con-
stitution of 1848 is in several respects more liberal
than that of Piedmont,—an argument of some
weight, if diplomacy meddles with the affair. The
party of absolute unity, therefore, wishes to see
Garibaldi act without delay,—do something to em-
barrass the preliminary arrangements, or, as the
Diritto says, to cut with his sword the knot which
is being tied.' I learn that difficulties have also
arisen about Garibaldi's Sicilian loan 0f45,000,000fr.,
as the Milanese bank which agreed to issue it ap-
pears to hesitate, in consequence of the turn which
the affairs of Naples have taken."
The municipality of Pavia has forwarded 14,000 fr.
to Garibaldi, with an announcement that they would
soon send more.

The official Constitutional Journal of Naples has
published the following note :

" Baron BreniQr, Minister of France, being un-
able, on account of their great number, to thank
each of the persons, who called at the Imperial
Embassy to inquire respecting his health, after the
attack on his person on the evening of the 27th ult.,
makes use of this journal to communicate to them
his grateful acknowledgments of that flattering
demonstration."

General Caracciolo, commandant of the province
and city of Naples, had, by an ordonnance of the
30th ult., forbade the publication of all journals,
except the official one, during the state of siege.
But that state having been raised on the 4th inst.,
the press again became free. As yet, however, only
two new journals have appeared—the hide, which
we have already noticed, and the Arlecchino, a
satirical paper.

A letter from Naples, published by the Cortrrier
de Marseilles, says :—" Francis 11. is new completely
emancipated from the fatal camarilla which has

brought such disasters on his dynasty and on the
country since his accession. Queen Maria-Sophia
has greatly contributed to deliver the King from
these evil influences, which paralysed his best inten-
tions. The Neapolitans appreciate her Majesty's
patriotism ; for, ever since her arrival in the king-
dom, she has constantly encouraged the King to
promulgate constitutional associations."
The Illovinzento, of Genoa, states that on the Ist
inst. the Austrian authorities at Venice obliged two
Neapolitan vessels, which had hoisted the tricolour
flag, to haul it down again; whence, the journal
adds, it would appear that Austria does not recog-
nise the present Neapolitan Government.
