CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, Sunday Evening.
It is hardly necessary to say that much agitation
has been created in Paris by the ominously important
announcement in the Illoniteur that, in consequence
of fresh attempts by the revolutionary bands to in-
vade the Pontifical territory, the Emperor has re-
voked the orders which he had given to suspend the
embarcatiou of the troops assembled at Toulon for
Italy. The information received by the Go-

vernment from Rome led to the assembly of a
Cabinet Council at St. Cloud, immediately
after which orders were transmitted to Toulon
for the embarcation of the troops before enu-
merated. The squadron loft Toulon, yesterday
morning at six o'clock. The news received officially
from Rome and Forence is to the effect that a body
of about 1,000 Garibaldians had attacked Viterbo
and set fire to the gates of the city. They were,
howover, vigorously repulsed by the Pontifical
troops, who captured a considerable quantity of
arms, munitions, and carriages. The population
of Viterbo did not at all sympathise with the Gari-
baldians. Rome was tranquil. According to
accounts from Terria Garibaldi had overpowered
the Pontifical troops at Monte Rotondo and

taken possession of three cannon. The efforts
of the Garibalbians against Rome had hitherto
entirely failed. The Deputy Cairoli, who, with a
few partisans, had endeavoured to enter Rome, was
killed, and one of his brothers wounded. The dis-

turbances which took place at Rome on the 22d
inst. are described still as of an insignificant charac-
ter. The Garibaldians lost 103 prisoners, and the
chiefs of the insurgents among that number are to
be tried befor a Council of War. Some depots of
arms were discovered.

The above news may be considered as authentic.
There is no lack of exciting narratives emanating
from the insurgent party, who report that popular
manifestations continued to be made in many cities
of Italy. Turin, Naples, Venice, Brescia, accord-
ing to these versions, have declared in opposition to
the Pope. At Naples the prefect of the province,
General Durando, replied to an address presented
to him that the people might rely upon the patriotic
firmness of the Government of Victor Emmanuel.
At Florence the King himself, in answer to an
address signed by some thousand persons, assured
the gentlemen by whom it was presented,
that they might assure their fellow-citizens
that they might place full confidence in him, and
that he had never paid any attention either to in-
sults or threats. In conclusion, his Majesty said—
" Believe that soon, by wise resolutions, our object
will be attained. Assure your fellow-citizens that
Rattazzi has always been a true patriot and my
friend. Let them wish him well, for he deserves it.
Let Italians remain calm and confident. Let them
repose faith in me, and we shall soon see the open-
ing for us all of an era of felicity, and the wishes of
the nation will be realised. When Parliament shall
assemble, I will mako arrangements for it to occupy
itself with the army and navy, the good condition
of which is inseparable from that of the nation.
But let there be a short truce to your generous en-
thusiasm, and be assured that it pains me to arrest
it."

The Italia of Naples asserts that the bands of
Menotti Garibaldi and Salomone have descended

sanguinary engagements took place. This roport
seems to be another version of previous accounts.

Garibaldi effected his escape from Caprera under
singular and rather romantic circumstances. On
the 15th ho observed concealed in the grass a very
small boat, a sort of cockleshell used by Italian
sportsmen co shoot in the fens. This boat was so
small that Garibaldi could carry it himself under his
cloak, and he placed it in a solitary part of the
island, determined to trust himself on the sea with
it upon the first opportunity. In the evening, the
weather being calm, and favoured by a fog, Gari-
baldi got into his boat, remembering, as he has
since said to his friends, that the Indians often
navigate in such a canoe. In three hours Garibaldi
reached the Maddalena, where some friends were
waiting for him. They had a difficulty about the
sentinels at Maddalena, but he and his friends re-
solved to make for the coast of Sardinia. When
they arrived in the environs of Terranuova horses
were procured with some difficulty ; and Garibaldi,
in spite of the fatigue of the preceding night,
reached without stopping in 17 hours the northern
point of Sardinia, and arrived on the morning of
the 18th at Porto-Torres, where without being re-
cognised he procured a small fisherman's boat and
took the helm himself. In two days Garibaldi and
his friends arrived at Torre-di-Vaclo, a small fishing
station near Leghorn. He soon reached the Roman
frontier, and arrived at Florence on the night of
Sunday last, and proceeded directly to the house of a
friend. In the course of this difficult enterprise
Garibaldi was recognised by a brigadier of Cara-
bineers, who telegraphed to the authorities that the
agitator had been seen in a cart on the route to
Pisa. This cart Garibaldi had borrowed from a
peasant who was disposed to aid his escape.
The review on Friday was peculiarly magnificent.

It was perhaps the moat splendid sight ever seen,
but it was one not susceptible of minute descrip-
tion, its brilliancy striking the sight as it were
in a moment. Imagine an assemblage of troops
to the number of 50,000, the sun shining with

remarkable splendour upon their bcautifal uniforms,
and its rays being reflected also from the brass cm-
non and glittering swords and bayonets. In addition
to this vast assemblage of soldiers something like a
million of spectators were present, and there were end-
less lines of carriages. The troops consisted of 57 bat-
talions, 57 squadrons, and 16 batteries. They were
under the general command-in-chief of Marshal Can-
robert. Marshal Count Regnaud do St. Jean
d' Xngely commanded the troops of the Imperial
Guard. Much attention was excited by the 13 bat-
talions of General Douay, recently returned from
Mexico. According to the judgment of those per-
fectly competent to form an opinion, all the
manoeuvres and evolutions were performed with
consummate skill and precision. All the regiments
were armed with the Chassepot gun, The Emperor
