A desp latch from Naples announces that Meazzo had

Garbadi quilted Palermo on the 18th TO Join COL Ne
dic, at his camp near Meazzo, and Il is presumed he
headed the attack that place. According 10 an unau
thentcated report however, Garibaldi had dembarked
on the Neapolitan coast.
war tax Of two per cent had been imposed on the
property of the converts and the clergy in Italy
Letters from Naples from 2lst ut announce that Carl
baldi had left Palermo with 5000 or 10000 volunteers
II is expected that Garbadi would effect landing
on the continent
The chiefs Of the revolutionary movement at Naples
had caused an illumination of the whole city Crowds of
people shouted Garbald for ever, in defiance OF the
royasts About ten Of the late police agents have been
killed The mail steamer from Syria expected to day.
Up to the present time the number of volunteers who

struggle for his last stronghold in that island. The
rival OF Medci and small but heroic army at Meazzo
appears 10 have determined his resolution 10 withdraw
all his forces the main land and accordingly orders
have been given for the complete evacuation Of Sicily
We are not informed whether the withdra val Of the
Bourbon army lakes place under captulaton, as our
latest advices from Sicily mention the warfare still

Pile war material must Of necessity take many days. If
not, Garibaldis belgerent rights remain unmpaired,
and II will only be for him to consider matter Of pc
Icy whether he shall quicken by a few blows the
departure Of the enemy.
The usrious general may fairly claim for himself and
his troops all the credit of this success, landing
the reserve Of merit made by the King IN assigning
iives OF humanity for the resolution he has TAKEN The
raj will not halt until he has proved whether the Bour

welcome he receives In territory where he is not

the crown might be more aivantageously defended
the mainland than in Sicily after what experience has
taught of the efficiency and fidelity Of its feet but IL
difficult to believe that has surrendered It's stronghold
