OIL the COUNCIL Jeueraf OF AlgieFS addressed
at the banquet offered by the city.
My first thought on putting my foot on African
soil was directed to the army whose courage and
perseverance accomplished the conquest OF this
vast territory.
But the God Of armies sends war among nations
only for the purpose Of chastising them or Of pro
curing their redemption. In our hands conquest
cannot be other than redemption, and our FIRST duty
is TO occupy ourselves with securing the happiness
Of three millions of Arabs who have passed under
our dominions by the fortune Of war.
Providence requires us to extend over this land
the benefits of civilization. Now, what is cyili-
zationf II 10 to consider happiness as something,
as the greatest good. Thus, to elevate the Arabs
to the dignity Of freemen, to spread among them
instruction, at the same time respecting their re-
igion to ameorate their condition by raising
from the earth all the treasures which Providence
has deposited there, and which bad government
would leave sterile; such is our mission, and We
shall not fail in it.
As to those hardy coIonists who came to plant
IN Algeria the flag Of France and with it all the
arts Of civilized fife, do need to tell them that
the protection of the mother country will never be
wantings The institutions which ! have given
them will make them find here their own country,
ana by perseVering in this course we have right
70 nope that their example will be followed, and
that new populations will come to place themselves
on this soil, which Is forever France.
Peace prevailing in Europe will permit France
to be more generous still to her colonists, and if
have crossed the sea to pass short time among
| you it is to leave as traces Of nv passage conf
dence in the future, and perfect faith in the desti
nes OF France, whose efforts to promote the good
of humanity are always blessed by Providence. I
drink to the prosperity Of Africa.
| FRANCE AND THE PoPE.-Pdris, Sept. %, Is60.-
The Constitutional publishes an article, signed BY
NJ. Boniface, on the influences which urge the Pope
to leave Rome.
The Constitutional says: very near future
will apprise us whether these Influences will be
victorious.
The same journal further says It is unreason-
able to ask that France should declare war against
Sardinia. France will not extend her intervention
beyond Rome. Were she to act otherwise she
would render herself suspected to Europe and
odous to Italy.
The Coastitutionnel, in conclusion, expresses the
hope that the Pope may resist the eounsels which
are given to him through hatred to France.

JEST, Sept. 19.--Tn consequence of the battle of
Castelddardo, gained by Leutenant-General Cia-
dini and of the measures he took during the night
following, corps of above 400G men, most of
them foreigners, with above fifty officers, and the
guides of General de Lamoriciere, six pieces of
cannon, ammunition and baggage wagons, capitu-
lated on the l9th and went from Loretto to lay
down their arms at Buenati. General Cialdini, in
conformity with the generous sentiments of his
Majesty, allowed this corps the honors of war, and
all-sodiers as well as officers-will be sent back
to their respective countries. General de Lamori-
| ciere, followed by few cavalry, fed from the
field of battle on the 18TH and gaining the sea coast
| by the gorges of Comero, succeeded in reaching
| Ancona. All the prisoners and the troops who
capitulated are indignant at his conduct. Nothing
| remains OF Lamoricleres army but the corps shut
up in Ancona-alf the rest are in the hands of the
royal troops, except 1000 men, who are wandering
dispersed about the mountains.
GARIBALDI IN SIcILY.--The following proclama-
ton has been issued by Garibaldi to the inhabt-
ants of Paermo: 4s s9@t4 e 1ysN
The people Of Palermo, who showed no fear in
| face of those who bombarded their city, have
| shown themselves recently equally regardless of
| astray.
4 They have spoken to you of annexation, as if
| any one was more fervent than myself for the re.
generation of Italy; but their object was to serve
who felt its own dignity, and placed confidence in
the sacred and unyiolated programme which
proclaimed ~" Italy and Victor Emanuel.n
At Rome, people of Palermo, we will proclaim
the kingdom of Italy, and there only will be sane
tilted the great family bond between freemen ant
those who are still slaves of the same country.
AT Palermo annexation was demanded that
might not pass the Straits; at Naples it is demand
ed, that ! may not cross the Vulturnus. But a
long as there are chains to be broken in Italy,
will follow my course or bury my bones there.
| leave you Mordini as pro Dictator, and certain
| ly he will show himself worthy of you and of Italy

tional militia, for the faith you have placed in m,
and in the destinies of our country.
Palermo, Sept. II, 1860.
A letter from Genoa dated the 22d of septem
ber gives the following account Of Garibaldi.
sudden visit to Palermo:
Advices from Palermo inform us that on th
17thGarbaldi paid an unexpected visit to Palermo
| He arrived there on board the Electriuue, Nea
politan steamer, and Immediately proceeded to tn,
palace, passing through the high-street Toledo
where he was at once recognized by the crowd
| The General, followed by the people who assem-
bled beneath the palace window, appeared upol
| the balcony and addressed them in the following
| words, which copy from the Rino0inento:
People of Palermo, with whom | have shared
| fatgues, perils and glory, am once more among
you. Your memory is dear to me, and, whatever
part of the world may be in, will always thinl
| of you.
Those who wished to urge you to speedy an
nexation were putting you to the wrong path. l
l had followed their advice / should not hay,
crossed the Straits and restored seven millions 0
men to Italy.
They would have prostrated us at the feet 0
diplomacy, which would have bound us hand an
foot There would have been brothers beyond th
Yulturnus with chains on their ankles. People o
Palermo, thank you in the name of Italy for you
resistance. | love Italy and Victor Emanuel: nj
one is a greater friend than myself of Victor Eman
uel, the representative of Italy. You despised the
counsels, and 1 thank you for it, you inyinciblt
The General afterwards held a review, and re
| embarked again at dusk.
| THE SIEGE OF AScoNA.-The Consthsatonnel Of
the 25th ult. publishes the following in prominent
| type:
All eyes are now turned towards the citadel o.
| Ancona in fact, it is there that the final and de
cisive struggle must take place, of which the battls
| at Castel6dardo was the prelude, between Genera
1 Lamoriciere and the Piedmontese forces.
The issue of the struggle must soon take place
if our information is correct.
1t is announced that the siege batteries of Gen.
eral Cialdini have made breach in the south side
of the walls of the town, and that consequently the
| assault will be given very soon. This news bears
date the 22d of September. The fire was opened
on the 18th against the fortress by six frigates-the
Marie Adelaide Victor Emanuel, the Carlo AL
berto, the San Michele, the Governolo and the Cos
tituzione. 1t is true that, after bombardment OF
nine hours, which was vigorously replied to by the
CITADEL Admiral Persano being informed that Gen.
eral Cialdini was not yet ready for the assault
ceased firing, to spare the city as much as possible
| Doubtless the bombardment has been resumed
but the Corriere Mercantile, which publishes these
details, does not mention how long the suspension
lasted. The advices from Turin do not mention
the opening OF breach but simply announce thai
the siege artillery had been landed before Ancona
