LONDON, Oct. 4.-The following particu.
lars of the recent movements of General
Garibaldi ~haves been received from Italy.
Whilein prison 4 AlsnandriAr Garibaldi per.
|sistenly refused 10 give his parole not to
engage in any hostile enterprise against the
Papal States. Meanwhile, the Italian Gov.
ernment, hoping to allay the popular excite>
ment caused by his arrest, gave orders for the
transfer of the prisoner to his home at Ca
prera, without insisting upon his parole. The
General was accordingly taken to the Island
where he was apparently set at liberty Soon
after his arrival he suddenly disappeared
from the Island and succeeded in reaching
the main land; but his movements had been
carefully watched. He was again arrested
and sent back to Caprera, where he now re-
mains under guard q prisoner in his own
home.

suggestion was soon set to rest by a

they had swallowed General Hayes

caused by carrying the blacks on one
