most efectually all reinforcements- If
one was iII-natured, one might almost
suppose that they thought it good OPP
portunity to get rid Of Garibaldi, but
they may find themselves mistaken.
POLITICAL DEsIeNs.-The Turin |
Dune 81 correspondence says:
"On Saturday last La Farina left
alone in a small English steamer for
Sicily. He is supposed, of course, to 60
with the intent ot-lightening the burden
of the Dictatorship which Garabaldi took
upon himself in Palermo. Should the
capital be rid of the Neapolitan troops,
the war would necessarily be carried TO
Messina, Catania, or the coasts of Gala
bria, and the Liberator must leave the
civil government in the hands of a Prime
Minister, well inclined, no less than able,
to second his designs. La Farina is a
moderate patriot, Piedmontese and Ca
vourian to the backbone. His departure
could not take place without perfect
understanding between him and the
great statesman at the head of the Sar-
dinian government.
Garibaldi himself is stanch to the
King, and bent upon carrying the i'm
mediate and unconditional annexation to
Piedmont or any part of those southern
kingdoms be may happen to snatch from
the Bourbon. The original insurrect-
ional Sicilian movement was, undoubted-
ly, in national constitutional sense the
insurgent chiefs invariably declared for
Victor Emmanuel and Italian Union !;
but Garibaldi himself left Genoa in a
state of real or apparent enmity with Ca
your. He professed to act in the Kings
name, and to have the Kings warrant
for all his doings; but at the same time,
he disavowed any connection with the
Kings advisers, and spoke in 40 meas
ured terms of their faint-heartedness and
duplicity. Under Garibaldi, again are
SirtoTi, Nino Bixio, and many others
known as Mazzinian, or at all events
ultra-Democratic partisans.
Some apprehension was entertained,
I. in short, that the revolution in the South
0 might be turned by the Mazzinians to
their own purposes and unquestiona-
bly,, as have often told you, such ground
), as Victor Emmanuel loses in Italy, is
= won by Mazzini. The Sicilians are the
5. last people in Italy to dream of re-
d public; still no one can say what PEG,
e pie may do who are driven to their wits
1t end, and who have not the wisest of lead.

9 The FRENCH ANswER.-The Pari,
correspondent says:
at is now pretty certain that the
great Powers have declined to interfere
between King of Naples and the Sicili
!. ans. In the dispatch from the French
, government in reply to the application tt
the Emperor Napoleon, the French Mi
mister is reported to have said that be
tween the cowardice of capitulatiol
!, and the barbarity of bombardment
advice was impossible, and that Their
only remained to express regret that tn
Neapolitan government did not follow tn
advice given to it for the last ten years

Both Houses organized with the old officers, except
in the lower House-R. c. Miller, of Clark county,

partments of the sovereign States Of this once hap

After enumerating long catalogue of insults
and INJURIES and in view of the fact that this hostile
section must continue to increase in power, the
Governor felt warranted in saying that the North
ern people have forfeited the confidence of the
people of Mississippi, and that the lives, liberty
and property of ourselves, and our children after
US, ought not to be entrusted to rulers elected by
such people," The Governor recommends that
Convention be called to meet an early day, and
bill TO that effect will be reported this morning.
He recommends that Commissioners be appointed
to visit such Southern States as may eongoke their
