THE FOREIGN NEWS,
BY THE vANDERBILT'S MAILS.

PALERMO, June 24.-One hardly likes to
write the truth, the whole truth, and nothing
but the truth, Of these southern provinces of
Italy, as no words can picture the abject
degradation of the masses But liberty is a
grand regenerator, and have little doubt that
there as elsewhere, it will produce its fruit
And Garibaldi, who, freed from the thralls Of
diplomacy, is his old self again, is determined
that the island shall be free as tree from un-
principled plotters as from the Bourbons.
Among the many things he told us concerning
the acts of the Piedmontese government is the
following Hardly had the Washington left
Genoa than Cavour sent dispatches to Persano,
admiral Of the Sandman fleet in Palermo, to
this elect GO to Garibaldi-tell him that
Mazzinl, Mario and his wife are on board the
Washington-beg him to arrest them at once
consigu them to you, and do you send them
back prisoners to Genoa"
To which Garibaldi replied, "Does Signor
Cavour take me for a Sbi1ro 2 Does he think
me capable of doing the dirty, cowardly acts
done at Bologna Tell him, with my compli-
ments, that he is mistaken in his man" |
myself heard him recount the story, and add,
with naiYete all his own, "Why, ! have not
even arrested La Farina, simply and solely
because no arbitrary act shall stain my resi-.
dence in Sicily" 1t SO happens that Mazzni
was not on board the Washington, but had
he been, he would have received the most
k.rdial OF welcomes La Farina came here
Expecting to be placed at the head of the gov
eminent. Garibaldi received him once, but
dispeased with his language, closed his doors
against him nevertheless, he is at his old
tricks-conspiracy lie is persuadng the
people to overthrow the ministry, limiting that
they are opposed to the annexation with Pied
mont. This is false. Garlbad is determined
that King Victor shall! be king OF Sicily, but
says, with great justice, "lf while we are
weak, we insist on the annexation France
will demand Genoa and the island of Sardinia
in exchange. Wait till we have conquered
Naples, till that army and navy is ours then
without saying BY your leave to any one,
we will, if the population desire, as we know
they do, King Victor, we will proclaim him
king, on the sole condition that he proceeds to
the conquest OF Rome and Venice, and thus
to Italian unity" This is Garibaldi's pro.
gramme, but as, sooner or later, he must leave
Palermo Tor Messina, ! believe la Farina will
succeed in creating disorder and bring his fac
ton TO the top OF the tree. AS man he is
despsed in Sicily, but as Cavour's represcn.
ttiye, with unlimited funds for bribery and
corruption, he exercises no small power, and
we shall see the result as we have seen il in
