Interesting DIRcIoSures Concerning
the Failure and Defeat OF GarIbni-
d'S Scheme-The Hand that u YVO-
man had tn 1t.
The secret OF the conspiracy which has
stopped the career of Garibnldi is now so
we'll known that it has become the common
talk of the clubs, and is as freely discussed
in the streets as any other topic. The
Emperor had all along been much embar-
rassed with his ally Victor Emmanuel, and
had suffered his mind to enter that vacilla-
ting, huctunting state when man feels
impotent to act and criminal to leave un-
done. 1t was after the arrival of the news
of Garibaldi's landing on terra frma that
the difficulty of the position became more
clearly defined, and the perplexity had
grown almost into frenzy when an incident
totally unexpected aud Unforeseen in this
great drama of surprises, brought compul-
sion of decision where hitherto all had
been doubt and hesitation. This was moth
ing less than IL letter from Cardinal Anto-
nelli, written in the name of his Holiness
the Pope. The letter is acknowledged by
all those who have knowledge of the affair
to have been chef d'oeuvre of dignified
simplicity of conception us we'll as of

Gle it even at considerable distance, it
was the intention of his Holiness instantly
TO quit the Roman territory; not to wait
for the ignominy of being compelled even
to listen to any proposition from Victor
Emanuel or Garibaldi, but on receipt of
the Emperor's answer to decide at once
whether to remain at his station, or of
transferring the Papal Throne. with the
whole body of Cardinals aud clerical Off

The Empress was waiting for the decision;
ere reflection had time to quell alarm, q
telegraphic message, peremptory and stern,
was dispatched to Turin. Its purport
was clear and decisive. 1t commanded
Victor Emmanuel to trifle no longer, but to
arrest the progress of Garibaldi, unless he
wishes to come to an encounter with the
French troops, which would receive instant
orders to go forth and prevent his approach
| to Rome. 1t was then that the personal
enemies, Cialdini and Pallavinici, were
despatched against the General, and for the

was thus that, in the first encounter. Carl
baldi was made prisoner and Pallavicini a
geueral,-the last perplexing element of
this web and tangled yarn of knottiug per-
plexities. By that letter of the Pope's, the
eminent and deadly peril in which France
aud Italy had been standing for SO long be-
came evident at once. The threat oftraus-
ferring the stupendous machinery of the
Catholic Church, perfect in its whole COM
plication of wheels, cogs, and engines, and
transporting that gigantic moral power
which alone can set the machinery in mo-
ton, and enable it to run down and crush
every obsticle beneath its grinding weight
to the already indomitable Austria, was
sufficient to rouse the Emperor to sense
of the risk he was summing by the delay he
was encouraging and to make him take the
immediate command of affairs in Italy
once more. The Empress is said to be no
stranger either TO the letter or to the des-
patch. Her Majesty isbegiuning to assert

which, after much importantly on his part,
was obtained at last. He returned from
