whence he soon passed into the service Of the Bey
of Tunis, in the position of an officer. But that
new position was little in accordance with his war
like disposition, aud at the end Of some months he
left for South America, where he took the supreme
command OF the Montevidean squadron, then tnat
of legion composed exclusively of Italians, which
displayed extraordinary valor and boldness in fight
ing against the soldiers of Rosas.
his EXPLOITS IN 1S4s
The sound Of cannon in l94S recalled him to
Italy, but his actions, during the whole campaign
of that year, were confined to some brilliant
skrmishes with the Austrians, when h. fought
more than once in the Tyro and in the Vateiine;
but after the almistce Of Milan he was forced TO
seek refuge in Switzerland with his volunteers.
Having short tine after re-entered Piedmont, he

as soon as Pope Pins TX. had left Rome, Garibllli
ran, with many of his former legion, to offer his
services to the provisional government Of the Ro-
man States, who charged him to form corps Of
partisans.
THE ARMIsTIcE WITH FRANCE AND ROME.
After the conclusion Of the armistice between
France and the republic of Rome. Garibaldi
marched upon Palestrina where the King Of Naples
had advanced with 900 men; he beat the King,
who retired upon Valletri; he dslodged him from
this point made stand in the Abruzzi, and then
was obliged to return to Rome by order of the
General inChef of the troops of the republic, and
defended Rome during siege of that city; and
how that furious lion, not willing to accept any
capitulation, crossed the bayonets of the French
on the Sd of July lS49 to retreat to Venice and to
defend that last boulevard of Italian ndepe ndence.
DIFFICULTY TO STOP HIM.
he was not stopped until he reached Saint
Marin, after having vainly appealed to the liberals
OF Tuscany to march upon Florence. There, the
Austrian General Gorzowsky proposed to allow
him to enter his legons and to give him a passport
to their chief on condition that he should embark
for America with as little delay as possible But it
was not Garibaldi to think of conditions, and he
resolved to gain Venice at all risks and despite
everything. He left Immediately with his wife,
preceded by three guides, and accom- panied by 200
of his legion, resolved to die rather than to enter
into any agreement with the enemy.
ESCAPE OF GANBALDI DISCOVERED.
General Gorzowsky, who was not aware of the
departure Of Garibald until two hours after, be-
came angry it is said, that he issued proclama
ton in which he threatened to shoot any one who
should dare to give bread, water or fire TO the ugi
tives. But Garibald escaped all pursuit, and on
the I'd OF August he embarked at Lesenatica thir
teen fishing barks, with the aid of which he hoped
to gain Venice. unfortunately in view Of that city,
at the moment when the fngitves about to land,
the Austrian brig L'Oreste attacked the hotilla of
barks, and all that Garbaldi was able to do was to
reach the shore of Mesola, leaving five barks in
the enemy's hands.
FIDELITY OF HIS WIFE ANITA.
But he endeavored to ly again. TO reach Ravenna
by different routes, his wife Anita following him
always. But after three days march the unfor-
tunate woman succumbed TO fatigue, and such was
the despair OF Garbaidi that he was willing to put
an end to his days. But his companions reminded
him that he owed himself to his country
and Garibaldi having confded to the earth the re-
mains Of his well beloved reached Rayenna under
a thousand DISCUSSES; then he came to Tuscany
and at last reached the Sandman States where We
now find him again as general Of King Victor
Emanuel
GARRIBALDI STILL TIE SAME.
There Is then no change liz the manner Of the
fiery commander of the Chasseurs of the Alps.
The war in which he is now engaged is familiar to
stop Garibaldi in his career. Here to-day--there
tomorrow-now they will attack you in front,
then disappear in retreat, which is nothing
but feint to strike you more surely the flank;
the day as general, the night taking all sort Of
DISCUSSES like a hero of the comic opera Garibaldi
is a snake which glides through your hand-he is a
Fra Davolo, who is never to be feared except
when you believe that you hold him.
RECONCILIATION OF VARIOUS INTELLIGENCE
This il the way in which the contradictory news
which daily reaches through all sources is to be
explained, as well even as the incoherency of the
reports. We have seen him from the first organic
