GARIBALDI IN TURIN.

(From the Times' Correspondent.)
TURIN, APRIL 4.
General Garibaldi arrived here yesterday and was
received with great enthusiasm by the population.
He is supposed to harbour hostile feelings against
the King's Government. His object, it is stated,

is to take up the cause of the officers of his army

against the Minister of War, by whom sweeping
measures have been adopted to inquire into their
titles and pretensions. Two of these officers, Corte
and Missori, have been to Caprera, and prevailed
upon the General to quit his hermitage and to take

the field in behalf of his followers. It was also

supposed that Garibaldi was anxious to occupy his
___ __

seat in Parliament, and vindicate his conduct as to
the share he had in the government of the Two

Sicilies during his Dictatorship, had the discussion
arising from the Massari interpellation called forth
his interference. Up to this day, however—the

third after the opening of the discussion—the
General has not made his appearance in the Howse,
probably because he is still labouring under the
consequences of an attack by his old enemy, the
gout, which has confined him to his bed or to a sofa
since his first landing at Genoa. What the real
intentions of Garibaldi may be no man can truly
say, for he is fatally apt to yield to the influence of
the persons by whoul he is environed. His sudden
arrival in -Turin, at any rate, has caused deep
anxiety among the people sincerely attached to the
cause of Italian concord. The following documents,
printed in the Diritto of this morning, were they
genuine—for I doubt it—would justify the most
sinister apprehensions :

" On the 29th of last M arch the deputations of the
Italian Working Men's Associations presented the
following address tio General Garibaldi in Ca-
prera

" Cittadino Geneille,—The several representa-
tives of the Italian Working Men's Associations
send their homage to you, 0 leader of the people,
and charge us to lay in your hands their respective
addresses. They feel that, owing to the serious cir-
cumstances in which Italy is now placed, they are
bound to expose before you the dangers which
threaten us, beseeching you to prevent and dispel
them by your powerful voice, by your invincible
arm. Austria is preparing for invasion. In a few
days' march, and with little resistance, it may sud-
denly occupy the Duchies and some other Italian
province. The soldiers of France are reinforced in
Rome, and all faith in the evacuation and emanci-

patios of the natural capital of Italy is at an end.
The discontent in Naples and Sicily is at its height.
A feeling of indefinite sadness weighs on the minds
and hearts of our free population, and a groan of
supreme sorrow, blended with the yearning of hope,
in vain rises from Rome and Venice. And in the
meanwhile the country is unarmed, not one point is
in a state of defence, not one measure is adopted to
resist the invasion of Austria on one side, and on
the other the still more evident and imminent inva-
sion of France in the kingdom of Naples. In you,
General, we all confide ; in you alone all Italy puts
her trust. Speak only one word, and the 500,000
bayonets which you asked to be ready for this ex-
piring month of March will rise and follow you as
if by magic. The safety of Italy now more than
ever lies in the Southern Provinces. Your wisdom,
your love for the country, will inspire you as to the
best means to provide for that safety.

To this address, evidently the work of the Mazzi
nian party, Garibaldi is said to have made the fo'
lowing reply :
" Friends—l thank you. You are right as to what
you say as to the urgency of the present situation ;
but the fears are perhaps exaggerated. However,
anything may happen. We must feel well con-
vinced that those who think of ill-using our country
are greatly mistaken. They are truly mistaken. We
are-stronger than they imagine. I do not speak of
the half million or of the million of bayonets which,
however, Italy could muster; but we have the
people, we have the nation with us. Italy, not-
withstanding the sad effects of a vassal (subser-
vient) policy unworthy of the country, and in spite
of that crowd of lackeys who support it—ltaly
must be. I thank the working men and the Italian
people, who show me a confidence which I do not
deserve. I feel in my conscience, however, that I
have never deceived, shall never deceive them.
The country must not put its confidence in one man
alone •, let it rely on itself, and not believe that if
Providence was pleased to choose a man—me, a man
like another—to do a little good, there may not be
others able to do as much as and more than I ever
did. There are a hundred among those brave men
who followed me, some of whom I see here now ;
there are hundreds, I say, who could take my place
if I failed. We are all mortal ; I may be taken off
at any moment—a bullet can pick me off. But we
began with one thousand; then came thousands ;
at a new call tens and hundreds of thousands will
come ; their numbers will increase in geometrical
proportion.

would rather it were to-day than to-morrow. Many
