GAR1BALDI ENTERING INTO MEssINA-Er-

Manchester (Eng.) Guardian, dated July q,
gives the following interesting account of the
entering of Garibaldi into that city:
Medici arrived at IL O'Clock with 1900 mer

and all young. MedIci rode at the head of his
regiment, on the charger Of Bosco. He entered
the town amidst the erriraS of a multitude
flags fly ing, drums beating, and altogether a
manifestation OF enthusiasm which cannot be

not to recognize why there was all this commo-
