TURIN, Sept. 10, 1850.
Garibsldi's Neapolitsn campaign reads like q
romance Of the fabulous ages. Without firing a
shot. be copquers kingdom with railway speed;
the hosts of the enemy melt away before he can
reach them; regiments aud brigsdes surrender to
a handful of his scouts; the prestige of his
name sufices TO die perse the Neapohtan army and
to subdue impregnable for.resses By the rail-
way be arrives at Naples, accompanied by few
friends, and the King fees the people resolve him
with enthusiasm, 81. Elmo aud Castellnovo sur
reader, and the feet puts itself under bis CON-
mAnd The first troops which could follow him
arrived only the third day after their General and
even when be cOnceOtr ated all the forces he could
concentrate, his army, 10 the great astsnishmeHt
a the NOacolisaus, mustered hardly more tnan
$4,000 men, ali of then foot solders, since the
Dictator has sill no cavsly no artillery aud n
special corps.
che King Of Naples is nearly equally strong in
the fortress of Gae.a, whittier his guards mis- for
eign troops, powerful artillery aud all his geo.
erals, have followed bin. II he can hold his
ground for fortnight, if the spirit of desertion
does not invade and destroy his army, he may still
offer serious re distance to the Dictator though the
ultimate success of lbIty is quite certain. Ital3's
danger lies in different quarter, that is to say
IN Garibaldi's wonderful success, which has inc.
brsted bis army and officers to such degree as to
make them believe that they are now fully able TO
encounter both the French and the Austrians.
BeTtani, Garibadi's intimate friend, exerts
powerful and fatal influence on the Dictator and
urges him on to follow up his victorious career
even TO Rome, without caring for the French gar-
risoD, and without needing the unanimous will of
the populations of Sicily aud Naples, who are all
most anxious to be at once annexed to the king
dom of Victor Emanuel, and to obtain regular
Government for, in justice, we must acknowledge
that Garlbaldis Administration in Sicily ia very
unfortunate and that Crispi, the Minister to whom
he adheres, ia the most unpopular man in the
Island.
For two months now Sicily has been free, aud
stn 10 elections have taken place, and political
opinions, opposed to those of the Minister, are pun
ished by Punishment or Imprisonment without any
trial, BY simple DictatOrial DEGREES. At Naples
Galbaldi has, indeed, formed an excellent Cabinet
but Bertlnfs Influence is everywhere visible and
paralJ yes the action of the Ministers.
1t was only on Sunday that the Marquis Treccfi,
the Dictators aid-de-clmp, brought letter from
the General to the King in which he insists upon
the dismissal of Count ClvOur aud of the Turin
Cabinet and invites Victor manuel to the Capitol
ofRome. The King, with all his personal friendship
for the Dictator, saw that his impIudelt policy
might compromise the best interests Of Italy, and
TO prevent conflict between Garibaldi and Napo-
leOn he took the lead of the revolution by invading
the Marches and Umbria in order to put barrier
between Rome and the Dictator
The plan of attack was well devised and uncOm-
monty well executed. Within ore week Perugia,
Foligno and Spoleto were occupied by Fanti, who
took 900 prirOners in those places, while Cialdln
marched upon Pesaro, FanO, SinigagGa and by
rapid movem INT reached and occupied the fOrmida-
bic positions of JEST, OsimO and LOretO, before
Lamoriciere. The African General, with about
600 men, stood at the Macerata, and, surprised
and outgeneraled by the Piedmontese, was cut off
both from Rome aud from AncOna. He is now
hemmed in on three sides by superior forces,
and has only the alternative to surrender
or to retire by forced marches upon the
NeapoItan territory, and by the provinces oil
the Abruzzi to reach Gaeta, where bus name
and generalsbp might be of some jmpOrtan' TO-
King Francis ii. At any rate, it is certAu that bs
first steps in this war display no great military
talent. At the head of a small army, instead of
concentrating his troops, he managed to place
them in such position as to lose one-hith oil p's
forces in the first week, the captured garIisons
of Pesaro, FanO Snigagia, OryietO, PerugI,
and SpOleto, amounting TO 5000 men, while The
4. 900 Austrian volunteers who keep sAncona
cannot offer any serious resistance to the com0red
Piedmontese attack by land and sea, since me
Admiral PersanO with the SardONeapohtan fleet,
has already arrived before the fortress, whose
outworks toward the sea are in very poor condi-
ton.
If the hirelngs of the Pope had the same pluck
az the General, we might expect sangunary pat-
Tie at Macarata but the army is of too recent
formation to be able to fight against the superior
forces of the Sardinians. A retreat Is at present
the most probable solution of LamOricere's diff
culties, and such a movement is likewise most de-
sirable 10 Victor Emanuel and to Count Cayour,
since it gives pretext for occupying the northern
portion of the Neapolitan territory by Pedmontese
troops. and thus bringing about an arrangement
with Garibald AS regards the recall of the French
ambassador from Turin, everybody takes 1t for
what il is-that is to say mere comedy.
