Tim curious ambiguity of certain expressions which fell from Iced MAST towards the close of his speech on Toesday night has set the unwary thinking whether after all some arrierr-pestle may not lurk beneath the florid frankness of the noble Pelvises mode of dealing with the question of confidence raised in the House of Commons. No man seems to revel non in the pleasures of candour than Loed DRAB( ; and nobody more delights is the saumptica of a magnanimous and patriotic tone, When called an to form a Government fifteen months ago it was impossible to exceed his eloquent appre ciation of the difficulties before him, or to surpass him in his depreciation of the party who sat behind him. For himself he professed tome not for office—he would rather, indeed, be without it. All this talk, how ever, about the deficiencies of ott ere, his own indis position to act, and the difficulties of the situation, was deemed of use, us setting off his seltdevotion ; said now that he has succeeded in somewhat better ing his position as far as dumb votiog•power is con cerned, but not sufficiently to resist with success the preponderating force of opinion against him in a Parliament even of his own choosing, we have the whole story over again of his reluctance to take office, and, in addition, various equivocal but signi ficant intimations that he may yet after all feel it his duty to be still more magnanimous than ever, by re taining place under circumstances yet more trying. When subjected to a vote of censure in a Parliament called by his opponents he refused to give way from an overwhelming sense of loyalty to the Crown and love of his country. Should he now be assured by a Panamint of his own summoning that he and his colleagues do not possess public confidence, he does not say that be will submit to that decimal= and leave the question of who is to succeed him free and unembarraesed by lingering pretensions on his part. Lord Deuce affects to regard the impending vote of the House of Commons as but one of the premises to the conclusion which, by the end of the present week, he may be forced to arrive at. Should that vote be hostile, and should any party in Parliament compared with that which now holds office ap pear more able to conduct the affairs of Go vernment, then the noble Lord told his Peers on Tuesday last that he would cheerfully withdraw in favour of his competitors. But who is to decide this newly invented question of political superiority ? Or where in the precedents or rubrics of the Consti tution do we nod any mention of posthumous rights in au extinct Ministry, like those which Lord DEanv darkly seems to hint at?

The division once carried he would oft:nurse repudiate any pretensions to the character of a prophet, or the privilege of a favourite. But what is the use of having a knack at taming carious sentences, and making people fancy they see what really does not exist, if one never is to do a little busi, use in this way f Bo thinks Lord DERBY perhaps . ; and SO we may possibly be told he meant to be understood when he proposed the other evening that a majority of the House of Commons, if found voting against him, should be called upon to prove that they were better able to perform the duties of administration than he and his amociates were. "We may be in a small 'minority 'tie true ; but if so, what then? 1)o not be afraid of voting with us because it is possible we may be beat.

And all this we may, perhaps, be told by and bye was said without any real design of betraying the high trust reposed in him by the Sovrartum by the offer of unconstitu tional end dangerous suggestions ; but simply with a view to experitnentalise upon the dulness and credulity of some half-a-dozen waverers for the purposes of • division. In that case we can only exonerate our candid and magna nimous PKIMILR from the suspicion of harbouring reactionary and subversive aims by imputing to him those of • shabbier and sh►llower sort. Lord Dreur has long had the character of delighting In • dodge; bat if the inexperienced players at the parliamentary table only open their eyes as to what is going on around them, and take warning in time, they can hardly fail, to see the hollowness and ab surdity of the proposition we have been adverting to, ►nd seeing it they will not allow themselves to be done. With or without them it is certain that the vote will be carried. Cbt Court, THE WAR IN ITALY. ENTRY OF KING VICTOR EMMANUEL AND NAPOLEON lIL INTO MILAN. The following official bulletin was published Lit eight at Turin: "King Victor Emmanuel and the Emperor of the French entered Milan at 8 o'clock this morning amid the warm and enthusiutic greetings of the populace. " Count Cavour has left this evening for Milan." EVACUATION OF PAVIA BY THE AUSTRIANS. TURIN, WIDNLWAY. The following official bulletin was published to- day : .. The Sardinian head-quarters were transferred yesterday to Cainate. The King was to enter Milan to-day. "At six o'clock yesterday evening the enemy evacuated Pavia, after having spiked their guns and thrown their ammunition into the water. " The corps d'ormee under General Schwarzenberg has left Pavia, and taken the direction of Belgiojoso. " A Te Deum has been sung in the churches of Turin to-day, and the town has been illuminated." asks such an unjustifiable move. A glance at the map will show you that we had full liberty of marching on the Lombard capital, as well as of attacking the enemy on his front and flank, thus forcing him to fall back pell-mell towards the river. But when we consider that Marshal Baragnay , d'Hilliere, who, suddenly leaving Alemandria, , Voghera, and Casteggio, bad crewed the Po, was marching on the Lomellina with three divisions of infantry and one of cavalry, perhaps with the object of cutting off the Austrian retreat on Pavia, wo can easily explain how General Gyulai was compelled by necessity to advance on Abbiate Gram. It is quite clear that our move on the upper course of the Tessin could not prevent the enemy from falling back on the last mentioned town. If he was not able to do that, but forced to advance on Abbiate Grasso, it is obvious that he thought his retreat was cut off either by Baragnay d'Hilliera' corps d'armte, or by the move. ment of General MacMahon. On yesterday morning the position of Gyulai was therefore equal to that of Massena in 1800, when his retreat on Picenza was completely intercepted by the enemy. I have tried to explain to you the move ments of our armies which led to the great battle of yesterday, or, to speak msre correctly, to the battle which is still going on. Surrounded on all side*, Count Gyulai was com pelled to take up the position of Abbiate Grasso, with the object of forcing both French and Sar dinians to recross the Tessin. In order to attain his object the Austrian Commander-in-Chief ordered General Zobel to attack our extreme left at Magenta, which was formed by a division of the Imperial Guard supported by a regiment of Zotiaves. This column, thinking it had only to deal with a division of the enemy's corps d'armee, went boldly to the charge, but was soon compelled to bend on the centre, which had already been attacked by Prince Lichtenstein, who was leading two divisions of Schwarsenbeag's carps d'armEe. It was then that two guns of the Imperial Guard were captured by a company of the 3rd Yager battalion. This back movement of our left wing was soon stopped by a bold march of our centre, which by this time had , repulsed the men of Prince Lichtenstein. The , advance of our right then followed, and in leas than two hours the allied monarchs were able to deploy a line of 60,000 men against the columns of t the enemy. The forces of the Austrians were not I much short of 80,000 men, with a powerful I t artillery. They were, however, compelled to move on a most dieadvantageous ground, as their left was soon turned by Canrobert's corps d'armee, supported by Fant's division, thus obliged to leave Vigano and Route, and fall on their centre at Abbiate 61111410. The Austrian centre thus swelled by the routed columns of their left wing was soon all in disorder. Thousands of the enemy fell crushed by our artillery. At this time General MacMahon had reached the scene of action,andseeing that the moment had come to break the already dis ordered centre of the Austrians, went to the charge with an impetuosity never witnessed before. He was supported by General Durand's division, which stood in reserve, moving slowly beside him. The shock was terrible ; dead and wounded were now falling by thousands. The Austrians were routed ; the victory was won. I shall not dwell on the heartrending scene which the field of battle presented. A Crimean officer told me this morning that the assault of the Malakoff is nothing when compared to it. The telegraph has already informed you that on the first day the enemy had 15,000 men hors de combat and 6,000 taken pri soners. Some say that 27 Austrian guns were captured, others 40, besides immense materiel. This morning I saw myself twenty of the enemy's guns brought here by our troop., Our losses must have been tremendous, but the French suffered most. The Zouaves engaged had about 700 men hors de combat. A brigade of Mar shal Canrobert's corps d'umee was almost destroyed in the last charge. I am assured that during the battle the Emperor and the King were always in the thick of the fight. Generals Espinasse and Cler are amongst the dead. Others are mentioned, but I am unable to test the truth of the report which came to me. All military men to whom I spoke this morning are unanimous in stating that the strategic combina tions of the Emperor are worthy of the first Na. poleon. By his able movements he led the Aus trian Commander-in-Chief into the net, and even General Hess was not able to prevent the disaster. What has happened to-day I cannot tell. All communications with Magenta, Abbiate Gram, and Rosate, are intercepted. Whilst I am writing, the sharp report of field guns and the roll of musketry is distinctly heard far on the right, in the direction of Binuco. Milan is already freed from the Austrians, who, some say, have withdrawn without any fight—threatened, as they were, by a popular movement. To-morrow I hope to be in a position to send you fuller information, for I must close this letter and confide it to a French officer wbo is on the point of starting for Turin. All communica tions with Novaro and the capital are interrupted, and we have no post running from here to Turin. I hope my friend will surely post this to morrow, so that you will be able to receive it on Wednesday next. Now allow me to correct a misstatement into which I war led in one of my last letters. The Austrian General Szabo, who fell at Palsstro, is not a relation of the Hungarian colonel of this name, as I have stated. Colonel Szabo, whom I left in Turin with Captain Novelli, is busily en gaged in organising a Hungarian legion. Gene rals Klapka and Perezell will command it. The illustrious defender of Comoro is now at Genoa, where the quadrer of the legion are now in a fair way of formation. At the late battle the King of Sardinia is said to ban received a wound is the arm. It was also said that General Mecldaht,n bad received a wound, but we learn by a despatch to his father-in-law, Count de Castries, that be escaped. General Espinasse, killed at Magenta, was mar ried to Mdlle. Feetagierre. of a highly respectable leanly at Bordeaux. His widow was in the department of the Gironde, and the prefect, M. do Mextque, was charged to convey to her the fatal newt.

PARIS, WIDNESDAY BVININO. None of the French papers yet contain any so. counts of the Battle of Magenta from their own correspondents. The Pays publishes some ex tracts from a letter, dated " Field of Battle of Fonts Nuovo di Magenta, June 6, 4 h., morning," the writer of which appears to be • captain of Zonaves of the Guard. He begins by saying that he is unable to oommunicate any details of the great battle beyond what he saw immediately around him. The brigade to which he belonged, com manded by General Cler (since killed), received orders to mar the Ticino early on the morning of the 4th. On arriving on the banks of the river they saw the Emperor, who had scarcely arrived at Novara before he removed his head-quarters to the bridge on the Ticino. The let battalion of the 3rd Grenadiers were selected for the first attacking column, and the three first companies of the Ist battalion of Zonaves, one of which was commanded by the writer, supported the movement. They began by taking a redoubt with such rapidity that the Austrians had not time to fire their guns. Immediately afterwards, however, the Zouaves, 200 only in number, were attacked by a much stronger force of Austrians, who had been driven from the redoubt. They lost so many men that they were " unable to resume the offensive with success." After resting some time, a division of Canrobert's corps and a brigade of Macldahon's Game to their assistance. This captain was then ordered to attack a village with his company. He took it in ten minutes, bat was afterwards forced to beat a retreat, " fighting all the while like mad men." Three battalions of the line then came up ; otherwise the writer thinks every man of his force (he must probably here allude to others than those of his own company) must have been stretched dead on the field. They went on fighting till half-past 9 o'clock. The writer only knows of the loss of his own regiment, which he states to be as follows in killed and wounded :-9 officers (of whom 1 only killed) and 250 men. The Nord and other Belgian papers say that General Vinoy's name is to be added to the list of generals killed. You will have seen that the official journal of Turin admits the French loss in killed and wounded to be 5,000, instead of 2,000 as stated at first in the Moniteur. The "'dependance says that the Emperor originally understated his losses from motives of humanity, in order that the joyful feelings resulting front victory might have full play in the first instance, and that previous reflection on the probable consequence of a great battle might prepare the minds of anxious relatives for the gradual revelation of the whole truth. The journals which reported General Mellinet u wounded now say they were misinformed. The Empress's appeal to the public for contribu tions of old linen to make lint and bandages for the wounded is placarded all over Paris, with the additional intimation that offerings will be received at all the Mairies. Crowds of people are reading these bills with a sad interest. The stern realities of war are brought home to the mind when the inhabitants of such a vast city se Paris are told that there is preming necessity for immense quantities of old rags to be sent all the way to Italy to savage the sufferings of the wounded. No mere figures could speak so eloquently. The prefects are collecting linen in the departments. There cannot be a doubt that the appeal will be promptly re sponded to. I should hope that a great deal more than can ever be wanted will be collected imme diately. Paris was again illuminated last night, and mea sures hising been taken to generalise the demon stration, many more private houses exhibited lights than yesterday. It has been explained that the reason why the illuminations on Sunday were far from general is that most of the inhabitants were out of town or, at least, out of doors during the day, and did not know of the victory in time to make pre parations. A few Numbers of the Patrie stated yesterday that the Corps Diplomatique was present at the re Deum at Notre Dame. This palpable error was soon perceived and corrected. Rear-Admiral Boiiet Willaumez hu arrived at Toulon, and is about to hoist his flag on board the steam frigate Mogador. You are aware that he commands the "siege fleet." All the gun-boats in this fleet, which may shortly be expected to operate in the Adriatic, will be under the orders of Captain de la Roncitre le Nonry. The Bourse gave way to a panic at the opening, canoed by the absence of any authentic news from the theatre of war, and by a telegraphic report of Lord Derby's speech last night, in which he is reported to have said that the war was commenced by France under false pretences and that in any event Italy would never derive any benefit from it. A great many disquieting rumours I prevailed, and in the course of the day the Rents dropped to 621 r. 3dc. The despatch announcing the Emperor's entry into Milan was not placarded till a quarter to 3. It was considered u a conclusive re futation to all the stories of Austrian origin ; but, nevertheless, it only brought up the Bente 20c. from the lowest point of the day. The closing prices were 67fr. 70c. for cash, and 62fr. 53c. for account, with a fall of 60c. in each case. Mobilier fell 12fr. 30c. The Lyons railway fell 16fr. ; Northern, 10fr.; and the other lines from Mr. to 7fr. 60c. THE EAST. TRIESTE, JUNE 8. A Greek steamer has arrived from Constantinople. The steamers of this line will run regularly every fortnight between Trieste and Constantinople. CORFU, JI sz 3. A Turkish squadron has arrived here. A correspondent of the Nord says that the Emperor's despa.ch with the news of the victory of Magenta contained no ken than 800 words. It was opened at St. Cloud, and deciphered by M. D AMA@ Hissed, In the presence of the Empress and the guests who had ken dining with her. When the translator came to the wisp relating to General Mac Mahon, "who, as always, was first in the geld," he stopped for a moment, owing to a ditliralty in making out the ether; Madame Mao Mace, who was listening intently, fancied that this hesitation wan the pre lude to a terrible revelation, and fainted away. THE PAPAL NUNCIO AND THE EMPEROR.—At the grand banquet given at Rennes after the ceremony of the fnetalletioa of the archbishop, the Papal nuncio said : " Gentlemen, I propree a toast to the health of the Emperor, the Empreamliernt, and the Prince Imperial. It was his Majesty who conceived the religious idea of erecting an archbishopric at Rester, and than eathfylng the wishes of the eltrgy and the people of Brittany. The Holy Father eigerly j fined In that Idea, and gave • fresh proof of the good understanding which prevails between him and the Emperor.

VIENNA, WZDNISDAY. • General Gyulai', official report of the battle of Magenta, dated Head-quarters, Belgiojoso, 6th of Jane, has been published to-day. The Austrians have lost, in killed and wounded, from 4,000 to 6,000 men. The loss of the enemy is at least half as much spin. Every line of the report proves the heroic power of the Austrians to withstand the &quits of the enemy. The official Austrian Correspondence says : " After our troops had, according to orders, evacuated Milan, on Sunday last, the public fano- tionaries also relinquished their poets ; and the charge of providing for the security of the town was trans ferred to the municipality. " The Imperial Austrian functionaries have with drawn to Verona ; it is possible, however, that they may resume their posts and functions in Mantua.* VIENNA, THURSDAY. The official duserisa Correspondent . e states that according to reliable information, Field Marshal Lieutenant Urban has successfully effected a retreat with his troops by Cassano. THE BATTLE OF MAGENTA. (fox 0171 SPICIAL COI XOVARA, SUNDAY, Juin 6, 3 O'CLOCK, P.M. I bad just posted my yesterday'. letter when I was informed that a great battle had been fought on the other side of the Tessin, on that ground which from Magenta, Abbiate-Grasso, &mate, and Bere guardo, extends along the course of the river in the direction of Paris. I thought it was my duty to go ea near as possible to the field of battle, and after a great many difficulties I succeeded in reach ing Novara early this morning. I am therefore writing at a distance of fourteen Italian miles from the spot, which has witnessed one of the greatest battles fought in our century. I shall now endeavour to give you a sketch both of our own and of the Austrian military operations daring the course of that memorable day. lam not of course in a po sition to send you a fair description of the battle, for I am but writing what I was able together fromdifferent sources. Besides, I am writing under the effect of the greatest emotion I ever felt in my life. The numberless dead and wounded I saw this morning have so much affected me that I am scarcely able to gather my thoughts and send any thing which may be called a systematic narrative of this terrible and glorious battle. You mast not forget that since the end of May General Gjulai, thinking the object of the allied armies was that of leaning with their left wing on the Po, near Torre Barretti, and with their right flank on Bobbio and surrounding heights of the Appennine defile, sent General Benedek to Lomello, and a brigade of his 6th corps d'artnee to Bobbio, to oppose equally the crossing of the Po and inter cept the road of Piacenza. The battle of Montebello, and the subsequent reconnaissance made by the enemy on our liner, had impressed the Austrian General-in-Chief with the idea that we intended to effect an offensive movement on the I'o, crossing the river by the road of the Duchies. The lines of the Sesia, of the TfifillS, and of the Agogna, were, in the opinion of General Gyulai, but secondary. On the 31st of May Marshal Can- ! robert, coming from Preset° and Paleetro, had sue ceeded in making his junction with our army. On the following day General Niel, who, passing through Momo and Olcggio, had marched on Novara, from Borgomanero, had occupied that city. By these move ments we were the same day in full possession of that tract of land which extends from Vercelli to Novara. The right wing of the Austrians wee therefore forced to retreat, and obliged to fall back on its centre. Robbie and Mortara were hastily evacuated by Zubel, Lichtenstein, and Schwartenberg's corps &armee during the night of Thursday last. Threatened by our forces, these corps de armee were thus compelled to lean on Vigevano, Bereguardo, and Pavia—that is to say, on the nearest point from which they oould succeed in crossing the Tessin. We know that on the Ist of Jaw General Gyulai's headquarters were still at Garlasco, but on the following Wednesday, pressed by the allies, he was compelled to remove them to Route, and finally to Abbiate Grasso early yesterday morning. On Saturday we had succeeded in crewing the Tessin at Buffalora, and our head quarters were established, after some fighting, at Magenta, a large borough founded by the Emperor Maximilian and destroyed by Barbarous. This borough is situated at four miles north from Abbiate Gruso and twelve miles from Milan. Whilst this able movement was executed by our troops, a French corps d'armee had succeeded in crossing the Tessin at Turbigo, five Italian miles above Buffrlora. • This crossing of the last-mentioned river by the ' allied armies renders it obvious that orate , getie science ought to have advised General Gyulai , to fall back on Pavia, his natural base of opera- tioss, from whence he would be in direct communica tion with Playgirl, and :Mantua. Instead of doing this the Austrian commander-in-chief chose to go to Abbiate Grasso, that is to say, in the most unfit mead to oppose the bold march of our columns. He had the Tessin on his left, the canal Naviglio and the Ticinello on his right, and the most difficult ground to move upon on his rear, for it is all cul tivated with rice and surrounded by water. The only road on which he could easily march his troops is that which from Abbiate Grasso leads to Pavia, a dia -1 tance of sixteen Italian mile.. At the first sight General Gyulai's movement is justified by the desire he perhaps had of covering Milan ; bat when one considers that we werealreedy in pomemion of Turbigo amid the village of Magenta one can hardly un derstand how the Anatrtan commander could IN DIA. We have received Calcutta journals dated the 314 ult. Owing to the alteration in the date of de parture of the mail, which is usual at this season, there are the events of ten days only to record. The interval has been almost barren of interest, so far as the rebels and their movements are concerned. From Central India (says the Etiglialtman) there is but little to report ; the heavy defeats which they have sus tained at Bartde and in the Sarong district, most have greatly diminished their power of giving much further trouble. She- Imbed, Sam, Cieruckpore, the northern districts of Oude, and the Nepsul frontier, are, however, still kept Man uneasy state of anziety by the presence or the movements of the rebels, the Singrowlee band having costrived to join their fellows In Nepaul in spite of our troops end the efforts of active ma gietrates and parties of irregulars ; end through all these dis tricts our troops ere of necessity kept on the psi vi re, although the hot weather baa fairly set in. Still it is to be hoped that all foss of any further effective combination among them is at an end. The last report of Nana Sahib places him at Souraghattee, in the neighbourhood of Boots!, with a numerous force, but hampered with great numbers of women and children. The Beguiles followers have been much reduced by the surrender of several parties to our troops, end hopes are espresesd that she may herself be induced to come hi, and that the Nuts may be caught by the same trescbcrous DAM as gave Tenth Topes into our hands. The prospect In this direction is certainly brighter, but the guerilla warfare, which is inevitable under the most favourable circumstances, will be both troublesome and costly. A Gazette Extraordinary had been issued an nouncing that the local government had at length consented to modify the conditions, and extend the usefulness of the Treasury Bills, originally authorised by the notifications of January 26 and February 28. The same Gazette contains a notification that civil salaries are to be revised. The following items of news h►d been supplied to the Calcutta journals by the government : Lusuff Kim, the Begum's Commander•in-Chief, hie brother General Elsan Khan, and two of inferior Dote, with 40 followers, have surrendered ; others are expected in. The Horhungabad military polies, on the 18th instant, surprised a body of rebels, some 500 strong, under Adil Mahouts' ; 10 men were killed and 6 taken prisoners. The standing ramp of the rebels, with about 100 home and ponies, and 80 to 100 arms of all descriptions, including several English muskets, fell into our hands. Sir Hope Grant reports from Gonda, on the 28th instant, that the force sect yesterday to the jungle. met with cam plate sweets. Surds Slog, with 150 of his men, were killed. The remainder all dispersed. The rebels are reported to be retreating westward up the banks of the Gogra; they amount only to about 400 men, many haring dispersed ; General Sir Hope Grant is following them no. One hundred and twenty-seven Bowers, with 25 horses in wretched condition, and 70 camp followers, gave themselves op to Major Henry, at Lotun, on the 21st tut., sad more are expected to come in.

CHINA. In the Ocerlaed Friend of China of April 23, we read: Political news in this quarter is as scanty as it was when we last wrote ; we have hardly an incident of importaue to refer to; and but for the hourly looked for arrive of the minister to Pekin and othsr high functionaries, we see no prospect of a stir in the stagnation. Sir John Burring and Sir C. T. Van Straubenzee did not lens China by the tart mail steamer as expected; nor is It certain, apparently, when they will go. . . At tut, after fifteen year.' toil in this trying climate, Chief Jostles Huhu leaves uo—again on lure of absenos only.
