GARIBALDI AND Victor EMANUEL-The
following correspondence between the king Of
Sardinia and Garibadi, forms a curious Incl.
dent in the history of the struggle for Italian
liberty -
Dear General You know that when you
started for Sicily you did not have my appro-
baton. Today, considering the gravity of
existing circumstances, decide upon giving
you warning, being aware of the sincerity
OF your sentiments for me. In order to put
an end to war between Italians and Italians,
L counsel you to renounce the idea of passing
with your valorous troops to the NeapoIitan
continent, provided that the king of Naples
consents to evacuate the whole of the island
and to leave the Sicilians free to deliberate
upon and settle their destinies. | would re-
serve to myself full liberty Of action relative
to Sicily in the event of the king of Naples
being unable to accept this condition. Gen
eral, follow my advice, and you will see that
it is useful to Italy, whose power of augment.
ing her merits you would facilitate by showing
to Europe that even as she knows how to con-
quer so does she know how to make good
use of victory. Victor EMANUEL.
Str:-Your majesty knows the high esteem
and the devotion which | feel toward your
i,i"JNS'y pue euSh 10 tHe present Stdte Vi
things in Italy, that, at the present moment, l
cannot obey your maiesty's injunctions, much
as would like it, am called for and urged
on by the people of Naples. l have tried,
with what influence l had, to restrain them,
feeling, as do, that a more favorable moment
would be desirable, But if L should now hes
itate l would endanger the cause of Italy, and
not fulfill my duty as an Italian. May your
majesty, therefore, permit me this time not TO
obey AS soon as | shall have done with the
task imposed upon me by the wishes of the
people which groan under the tyranny of the
Neapolitan Bourbon, l shall lay down my
sword at your majesty's feet, and shall obey
your majesty for the remainder of my life
time. GARIRAfnt

just made an award of $4,000 to VIM. H.
Degroot, in settlement of damages, losses. and
liabilities incurred under contract with the

which is double the amount claimed by Mr..
Degroot's lobby men last winter, took nearly
everybody by surprise. The larger part Of
this amount is said to be for constructive dam.
ages, or for what his profits would have been
had congress not failed to make the proper
appropriation, whereby the contract should
have been carried out During the past week
Mr.. George A. Bates, former resident OF
this city, addressed memorial to the secre.
tary of war, in the name of Kellogg & Bates,
asserting that Mr.. Degroot failed in business
in 1855, and that all his right and interest,
as assignee of Mechlin Alexander, came into
their possession by contract with the latter,
and that they, and not Mr.. Degroot, are enti-
tied to the amount in damages which has been
awarded.
