The republican and national idea hud prdielytes in every class of society. Entering the Piedmontes navy, Garibiddi exerted his singular influence to win fresh recruits to the good cause. An armed expedition was prepared, the leader- ship of which was confided to Bamorino, an officer who had shown oourage and capacity in the Polish campaign. It failed utterly 'ana miserably. Before he knew its results, Garibaldi, feverish with imr patieaoe^ left his ship, rowed ashore, and landed at Genoa. An insorreetion had been arranged, but delayed.

"There caiiio over the wn -to Garibnldi the news that Pius the Ninth was I'opo, that the people wero Pufferiug from tho horrible tyrrany of bis If olinew. and thut lUily bud Started from hor Hlumber ; BO he sailed away towards Home, and though timid men reminded him that in Piedmont he was still uwlor scntt^noo of deafti, bo landed at Genoa. With u wild cry of enthusiasm, tho people gatliercd round him. His name, even then,* would have been worth twenty thousand troops. The niunhood of the whole land would have rushed into tho field at his bidding. Modestly and humbly the groat guerilla placed his sword afe^Ao servico of his king. Carlo Alberto- ret ust«d it— the most fatal n\istakc of its life ! The tide of buttle, which hod long been running in favour of Italy, turned, and the ebb wiw switl and strong. The Sardinian army withdrew before tho AuHtrians, and /feft Milan to its fate. The noble city, whoso aons had themselves •- J fc. r^ I l» r fc: ■ I' 4 x' • let :;. ■■^;;-^", driven out the Germans a f&yr nionths before, found that it had been unwise trhun it put its faith in princes. Disenchanted, it called ' Young Italy' to its aid. Mazzini himself shouldered a musket. Garibaldi hastened to Milan, raised a free eorp, and marched upon Bergamo. He was compelled, however, to retire, and after oatabluh- ing himself for a time near Logo Ma^iore, he crossed the frontier into Switzerland. In September; 184H, Nice, his birthplace, sent him as its deputy to the Sardinian Parliament. It has been said he is not a politicia*. The statement is only partially truei«r-to m'ake it accurate we should Buy that he is not a diplomatist, though he has sometimes cut knots with his sword which diplomacy was unable to untie, and that he is not an orator except when upon the battle-field he gives the word to charge. 1849 arrived. Pius fled from Rome ; the Republic was proclaimed. Joseph Mazzini, Aurelio Saffi, and Armellini governed it as a triumvirate ; and Garibaldi, summoned by them to the Eternal City, was entrusted with the command of the firdt brigade. Louis Napoleon Bonaparte, then President of the French Republic — at present, 'by the Grace of God and the national %ill ' Emperor — sent an ariny to Civita Eecchia, under General Oudinot. IVfany men doubted whether the Italians would fight } they soon solved the problcn(i — they fought. They drove back the French from the walls of Rome ; Garibaldi, at the yilla Pamfili, not only defeating the assailants, but taking three hundred of them prisoners An Armistice was concluded with Oudinot, but the Niz- zard did not like to waste time. With three thousand men he sallied forth from the city, and routed five thousand Neapolitans at Palestrina. Ten {lays afterwards, at Velletri, he attacked the enemy who were commanded by the King in person — by Somba-^father of Bombalino; andswift and craven was the flight of his evil M^esty. Garibaldi, who was slightly wounded in the combat, letunied to R^e. The si^ was drawing to its close. Republican France crushed Republican Italy. Rome surrendered. With fcur thousand foot soldiers: and four hundj^d horsemen, the Nizzard left the city, eager to continue a guerilla, warfare in the mountains, or else to get to Venice, which, under the leadership bf Daniele Manin, still held the AttStrialns atbay. He reached San Marino ; but the Httle republic, threatened by the allies, compiled him to disband his troops. With a few devoted men Garibaldi departed, and endeavoured to gain the shores of the Adriatic. Qh the 2nd July ho left Rome ; on the 30th of the same month he quitted San Marino. His wife, Anita, who had borne biiu three childrtin, and was again about to become a mother, • acodmpanied him. On the 3rd August he reached Cesenatico, hired thirteen fishing boats, and set sail tW Venice, The City of the Sea was aUnost in sight when Garibaldi perceived that his little fleet was pursued by Austrian ships; the wind shifts, and blew dead against him ; eight of the fishing boats were captured ; with the other five he ran the ^unUet through the Austrian squadron, and Uiiided on the coast; His little band dbpersed.

With his wife, hiB childwp, Cioenuoohjo and his family, the Lombard officer, Livraghi, and the Baraabite monk Ugo Bassi, Garibaldi trusted himself to the honour oi the Pea- santry, and found them nobly laithful. But the hardships of the flicht overcame Anita. The noble woman died ; and Gnnbaldi, dSeinir her grave with his own hands, swore that he would yet re- vemro her uw)n the Austriaus. Heartbroken he wandered wearily awav In time he reached Ravenna, then passed into Tuscany, to Genoa, to Tunis ; and from Tuni« sailed, a lonely mart whose country had been ruined, and v^hosc wife hud boen hunted to death, tor America. A weaker nature would have sunfeandcr such calamitiM ; this LTOiit nian, keeping his grief to himsel^t to work to earn hw bread by the labour of his hauds, and waited for the time when, ua God'ssood providence, Italy should again call hjm *<> ner aid. In New York he turned trader : but the old love of the sea came back, and he sailed again a» a merchant skipper. ''He visited Cahfomia and China. He came to England— a grave bearded mm, who sat among his bales and crates, and talk«d of freight and other trading matters, but wjiose manner had still so strapge and subtle a charm that those who did not know his name walked away in wonder as to whb this Italian could^be. At Newcastle the north countrymen gave ' him a sword of honour ; he has used it since to some effect. y ♦v His mother died in 1851 ; in 1854 he returned to Italy, which ' was now doubly dear and sacred, because the twofold h»ppines8_of Us life, as son and husband, was buried there. Gradually the_Re- publicans— the 'party of action'— drew nearer to the Kmg. Gari- baldi believed in Victor Emanuel, and accepted a post in his nianne. Then establishing himself at Caprera he rested and waited. The air was thick with tokens of the coming storm ; and this mariner knew well enough that the tempest was rolling up. On New Year s Pay, 1859, the Emperor who had destroyed Rome hinted thxt he would deliver Italy. The* French army crossed the Alps. At the first whisper of war. Garibaldi offered his services to the Kii^. Car vourknew liis value, and accepted them. Then, with his 'Hunts- men (rf the Alps,' the hero dashed to the front, beat up the Austrian quarters, and bqgan the war. From Lago Maggiore to Varese, from Varese to Coma, this irregular force marched hetote the Anstnan General had inspected his troops, or seen the last orders received from Vienna; and erehe could tele^aph that the * enemy had es- caped him at Varese,' Garibaldi had ^ptered Como amidst the cheer- ing of the people. In this campaign the marvellous fertility of, re- sources, the quickness of decision, the celerity of execution displayed by Garibaldi, convinced all Europe that the reputation he had won in America was not exaggerated. Sore trials remained for him. Solferino was followed by Villafranca. When the shameful news reached Garibaldi's cainp, he bore it bravely— it was hatefdl, it was horrible ; but he had to do his duty to his king for all that Cavour ^ resigned ; Garibaldi held his commission lor some time longer. A y "> ' !*■■. '■I,: -'■■■■ I still heavier bloHr had to be endured. The Emperor, who had gone to war for ' an idea,' sent in bis bill of costs. Nice and Savoy worts to cease to be Italian. At this news the great heart of the Niczard almost failed him. That his very birthplace should be bartered away was terrible, He spoke out vehomently -he denounced the transac- tion as an infamy, and then waited for the spring. In the first days of May, 1860, volunteers bc^n to assemble in the neighbourhood of Genoa, Gimbaldi himself was then at Quarto, five mUes from that city. Duridjg the night between the 6th and,6th of May, a detaoh- Bient under the ordenT of Nino Bixio, seized two steam troats— the Lombardo and the Piedmonte— ^and proceeded to rendezvous which bad^been appinted.' The people of Sicily had risen in insurrection ; IGkuribiddi, the knight^errant of liberty was going to their aid. He took his own place at the helm on board the Piedmonte, and steered the ship himself. In III, his men numbered about a thousand, the greatest part of them being Lombards. The enterprise on which he had embarked seemed one of the most desperate ever attempted.. The Piedmontes Qoventment disowned him ; by that of Naples he was dendunced as a pirate and an outlaw. Steadily steering on, and keeping a keen look out for hostile cruisers, he held his course. He touched at Talamone, on the T«D9can border, took in coals at Santo Stefano, and then steered due south towards the coast of Africa. Safe thus far, he took in provisions at Cape Bon, and then pushed right away to Sicily. On the 11th of May he made the land ; a fiming-boat infomntd him that a Neapolitan frigate and two corvettes had that morning quitted their anchorage at Marsala, and gone round towards Trapani. The harbour was free. Garibaldi landed, and the hostile squadron, returning just too late, could only seize his de- serted steamers, and open an idle fire upon the town. Next moniing he and his * red shirts' were on the mareh. On the 15th they met the encnny at Colatafimi, and beat him; on the 26th, driving the Neapolitans before him, he occupied Palermo. In due time all Sicily acknowledged him as Dictator. Early in August he crossed fipom Messina to the mainland. At the mere whisper of his name foments dimersed : and Bombalino ran as swiftly from Naples as his father had fled from Yelletri. Then, when he had conquered two kingdoms. Garibaldi laid the ^t atthe feet of Victor Emmanuel, and jrent back, a poor man, to grow turnips at Caprera. In all his- tory there is not a more wonderful or glorious episod^. "Again he left Caprera on a sad journey. With the cry of lome or death,' he called his friends around him. J^ad as the mdertaking seemed, there were many who, remembering what he had "re^y^ done^ believed that success might yet be possible, Thq sus- ^ Jnse wa8\^rt.

The London Star also publishes a spirited memoir of Garibaldi :— " Never,"it says, "has the muse of history or sott^touohed a nobler theme than the soldiership and manhood of the ^tnot hero who land* ' to-day on English soil. It is not for the first tune he now viats this island home of; a great and free people.
