CORFU, JUNE 3.
A Turkish squadron has arrived here,

The following are some details of the attack o:
Garibaldi on -Laveno

Garibaldi, hoping to take the place by surprise,
attacked it on the 2d, but the Austrians, who were
1,500 strong., had armed the forts with 38 guns.
The volunteers, who had no cannon, attempted to
take the forts by assault, but were beaten back with
loss. After a pause, new columns of attack were
formed, and they were principally directed against
the fort St. Michel, which defends the approaches
of the place, by crossing its fire with that of. an
earthwork placed on the right bank of the little
river which flows by the south part of the town.
After a conflict, the fort was carried, but the volun-
teers could not hold it, because it was open on the
side of the town, and was commanded by the fire
from the upper part of the town. The volunteers,
in consequence, had to retire, and some of them,
being discouraged, fled into Switzerland, where, in
the exaggerated style common to Italians, they
related the disaster which had befallen them. From
what they said it would have been supposed that
the corps of Garibaldi was completely cut up.
But, far from that, he reorganised his men, marched
on Varese, and, suddenly attacking the Austrians
who had returned there, drove them from the town,
and pursued them some distance.

A letter from Ponte-Tresa, on the Swiss frontier,

says :
The men of Garibaldi's band who arrived here
are five in number; the eldest is apparently.about
thirty, and two or three seem to be not more than
twenty. They were greatly fatigued, but their
manners are gentleman-like. Their costume is
more like that of sportsmen than of soldiers, as
they wear a large waistcoat furnished with several
pockets, a sort of grey-coloured blouse, fastened
round the waist by a belt, have trousers of any
colour, and a small oilcloth cap ornamented with a
tricolour cockade. Their arms are a sword and a
musket ; the latter is not in a good state. Colonel
Bontems, who commands at Ponte-Tresa, ques-
tioned the young men, and they declared that they
were not deserters, and that it was by mistake,
and from ignorance as to where the Swiss frontier
began, that they had to come to the Swiss advanced
posts. They said further that they belong to
wealthy families, and to prove that they were not
deserters, they asserted that they had plenty of
money, and that they intended to rejoin Garibaldi.
At their request vehicles were procured to convey
them to Como, and they were not sent into the
interior, as at first ordered.

The following is the protest published by the
Grand Duke of Tuscany against the authors of the
revolution which has been accomplished in that
country. It is dated Ferran', May 1:
" The recent violence exercised in consequence
of the Piedmontese revolution had for its object
to impose on me acts contrary to the hour of my
person, not less than to my will, to declare
war in violation of the right attached to the sove-
reignty. In consequence of these proceedings I
found myself compelled to abandon my dear Tus-
cany, and to seek an asylum at a distance in a
friendly State, with which I am connected by reci-
procal treaties. I already protested solemnly at
Florence on the morning of the 27th of April, in
presence of the diplomatic corps accredited to my
person. I protested, I repeat, against the above-
mentioned violence, declaring null and of no avail
the acts in question. I protest again, this Ist
of May, at Ferrara, most solemnly, against the
violence which was offered to me, and I reiterate
the declaration, then formally expressed, as to the
nullity of the aforesaid acts, which evidently tend
to disturb (in my States) acts sanctioned by the
Treaty of Vienna in the year 1815, signed and
guaranteed by the European Powers. For these
reasons I wish that the entire responsibility of the
above-mentioned acts may fall on those who, con-
trary to all justice, wished to impose them.
" LEOPOLD."
