SICILY AND NAPLES.

Everything leads to the belief that Garibaldi is directing his expedition against the Mainland, but ho confirmation of the fact has yet been received. The evacuation of Sicily by the Neapolitans, however, is fully confirmed. After that evacuation the chiefs of the revolutionary movement atNaples caused an illumination of the whole city to take place. Crowds of people shouted "Garibaldi for ever," in defiance of the Royalists. About 10 of the late police agents were killed. The belief that Garibaldi is actively engaged in some further enterprise is corroborated by the fact that we continue to be without any exact news of his whereabouts. If some communications from Turin are correct, the General cannot possibly have received the letter from Victor Emmanuel .(referred to elsewhere) entreating him not to cross the sea; and it is doubtful whether such a letter was ever sent. The Post of this morning, however, learns from its Paris correspondent that the Sardinian Government has positively " consented to support, by its influence with Garibaldi, the proposal of a truce for six months, between Naples and him." All our news from Naples goes to show that utter disorganisation prevails. - "To judge from the public voice and the' outward appearance of things," says the Daily News correspondent, " one . would be inclined to say that the existence of Francis 11. was not worth an hour's purchase. «An inventory has been made of the royal property,' says one person, * and what can be embarked has been sent off.' ' The Spanish minister was with the royal family the other day,' says another, * and an asylum on board the Spanish vessels was talked of and arranged.' 'No more of the Bourbons,' cries a third, and it is reiterated by the Piazza and the cafes, they have deceived us three times, and we will no longer believe them.' Letters from Naples to the 21st of July announce that Garibaldi had left Palermo with. from. 8000 to 10,000 volunteers. It was not believed at Naples that /the destination of the Hero ol Sicily was Messina only. ; . , .-.
