GARIBALDI ON BOARD THE HANNIBAL.
We translate the following account OF the interview
on board the Hannibal, between Garibaldi ana the
Neapolitan General Letzia, from the Courier de
Paris:
at is said that at tbebegnning of the lombard
ment the English Admiral protested against 1t, and
even inmated an order to the Neapoitan Generals 10
m, a stop Immediately to the work Of destruction
"Tbe bombardment had continued for two days,
when the Consuls indignant at the atrocities which
they were compelled to witness, demanded that Gen
LAMA should ask an armstice of Gen. Garibaldl
This was granted Immediately.
at was TO be but for Elk or twenty -four hours
stories say but Just as the time was up, the Admiral
declared that Palermo being evidently lost the strg
gle should not recommence. All the commanders OF
foreign war vessels held council on the HANNIBAL ana
conse nted TO Join the English Admiral in demanding
not that the Neapolitans should acknowledge them
selves vanquished but at least that the armistice
should continue so that serious negotiations might be
commenced.
"The armistce was consequently prolonged for
three days.
During this time, by the Intervention Of the con-
suls and the naval officers, interview was arranged
between Garibaldi and the Royal Commissoner-not
Gen. Lara, as has been sad but Gen. Letiza. There
was perfect agreement on all the Details such as the
mutual exchange of the wounded the care TO be ex-
tended to them and the free renewal of provisions;
but when they came TO discuss the main question, the
evacuation of the city, they could not agree letiza
began by assuming that the Royal troops could sun
make head against the Sicians, and he proposed to
present to the Sovereign address, signed by the
Senate of Palermo.
"To which Garibadi answered:
"'The Senate; / am the Senate
"The Royal Commissioner could say no more about
the good intentions of his master, continue TO advise
an humble suppication.
"Tbe retreat of the Neapoltan troOps was discussed
LAMA and his representative, Letizia agreed that II
Garibaldi would allow the free transport OF the
wounded, with their arms, baggage, and coIors to
Messna OF Naples, they would go.
"Garbald answered very frankly that his work
was 10 make united ard independent Italy; that the
capture of Palermo was only the beginning; that he
needed to carry it on, many arms aud rs few
enemies as possible; that consequently he could not
deprive himself Of the former, allow the latter to
reinforce Naples OF Messina, places which he intended
soon to attack However, he did not desire either to
extermpate or to humiliate the soldiers who had
shown 60 much bravery against him, and SO he pro-
posed the complete abandonment of the city and forts
without any humilaipg denominations and that their
garrsons be stationed in the interior of the island
until the end of the war
"Lezia Of course could not accept these conditions
without consulting LAMA And he too could not give
up Palermo, all Sicily, and an army Of $4,000 men
without rende ring better excuse to the King his
master Nor could Francis ii ratify such acsptuation
until forced to it by further disasters STILL all things
considered, Garibaldi would have failed to complete
his victory had he asked less.
"The situation of the Neapolitans, isolated in two
groups at the extremies of the Sicilian capital is
desperate that negotiations still kept up the
lst not between Letizia and Garitadi, but between
he King and LAMA, Eetizia going TO Naples and
back endeayorDg to arrange the terms of captuaton.
"At the last advices nothing had been signed. We
are sure that Garibaldi will yield nothing, at least
so far as the arms and munitions concerned. We
assured also that the why the bombardment
had not recommended is that the English Admiral with
the other foreign commanders and Consuls have OPP
posed it with so much resolution"
