The fearful dangers to invalids from spurious imitations of DU BARRY's invaluable HEALTH-RESTORING REVA LENTA ARABICA FOOD led to an investigation, and, upon application in 1854 for protection, the High Court of Chancery granted an Injunction restraining Alfred Hooper Nevill, and his agents, under a penalty of X 6,000, from selling any article resembling or being a colourable imitation of Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica, of which we are the sole pro prietors. Now, therefore, this is to give notice that the above reward will be paid, upon conviction, to anyone giving infor mation of any breach of the injunction. An intelligent public requires no admonition to shun all shopkeepers who may attempt impositions. London : BARRY DU BARRY & CO, NO MORE SICKLY OR ILL-CONDITIONED HORSES OR OTHER CATTLE.

Arranged on the slope before Palestro, wards the stream, they were greeted by the fire of the Austrian battery and by the Tyrolese ehasseurs ensconced in the high crops. The stream looked so insignificant that when the order came to drive away the Austrians the Zouaves threw themselves into the river, expecting it to reach perhaps to their knees. Instead of this they found themselves up to their belts in water, which wetted the car tridges they carry in the pockets of their loose trcusers. They were thus unable to use them. Nothing daunted by this contretemps or the hail of grape and rifle bullets which showered upon them, they ran up to the battery without firing a shot, and bayonetted the artillerymen and took the guns. But, in spite of this brilliant episode, which cost the regiment about 300 men hors de combat it is again the Piedmonteso who had the greatest share in the victory. There have beau hitherto 312 prisoners, not wounded, brought, in, among them several officers, and the woundea still continue to arrive. Among the prisoners the Lombard regiment, which lost so many men resterday, is again strongly represented. It seems that when the Austrians determined to retire to the position chosen by them, they left this reghnait as their rear guard ; I do not know w'ilether to show that they could trust their Italian soldiers, or because they thought their loss the least important, The Emperor went out again to-day to the battle field and remained there till late in the afternoon. THE BATTLE OF MAGENTA. (From the Times ) If we may place implicit reliance on the telegram which we publish this morning a victory has been achieved by the French arms which may take its place beside the most renowned names in the annals of the First Empire.- The little town of Magenta, on the Lombardy side of the Ticino, and about two miles eastward of the Bridge of Buffalora, over which the Austrian invaders advanced some weeks since to the easy conquest of Sardinia, is the scene of this great disaster. The French electric message boasts of 5,000 prisoners, and of 15,000 Austrians killed or wounded ; and, if we may believe that the numbers even approximate to those enormous figures, it is impossible to doubt that a battle has been fought which is decisive of the campaign. The great invading army is now become a flying multi tude, more or less kept together by habits of disci pline ; but Milan is open, Pavia and Piacenza remain like Austrian - uplands in a plain flooded by French and Italian troops, and there can be no pause for serious resistance on the western side of the great line of Austrian fortresses. More ample despatches, and details, at which we cannot now even guess, may diminish the importance of this imposing bulletin, and may lessen the numbers of the Austrian loss ; or we may possibly hear of a slaughter among the French which may take from ' the decisive tharacter of the victory. But as we re ceive it so we give it forth. Thirty hours ago a despatch left the field of Magenta, and announces in London that 15,000 Austrians are killed and wounded, and. that 5,000 prisoners are in the hands of the victors. These are the only ascertained facts ; but, connecting them with the statements of our corresportclents, we are not without some means of guessing at, the operations which must have pre ceded this decisive result. The letter of our Correspondent from the Head- Quarters of the Allies, which we publish to-day, gives a perfect description of the position of the two armies on the day when that letter is dated. The French had been for some time previous massed abouLt Alessandria, and were making de monstrations towards Pavia and Piacenza, while the Sardinians, supported by some Zouave Regi ments, were following up the Austrians as they •etreated from the line of the Sesia and were gain- ing advantages in every encounter. This - was scarcely a fair test, for, as the tactics of the Aus trians compelled them to retire, the field of conflict necessarily remained in possession of the Allies, but that it was sometimes hotly contested will appear from the details of the affair at Palestro when they are sufficiently authenticated for publication. The Austrians appear to have been satisfied that they had no active enemies to dread at the moment, ex cept only the Sardinians and Zeuaves opposed to their right wing, and Garibaldi and his irregulars hovering upon their right flank. The great body , of the French were still, as they conceived, sta tioned about Alessandria, as they had been when General Stadion made his unsuccessful attack 'upon them. To some enterprising Generals this position would have suggested the opportunity for a great blow upon the apparently disunited army. General Gyulai seems to have seen in it only a facility for returning to Lombardy. So long ago as Thursday night the Austrians were in full retreat along their whole line. They abandoned that position on th© line of the Po which commencing near Valenza and extending from that town to the junction of the Po with the Ticino, threatened the fortress of Alessandria and the right wing o the Allied Army. They evacuated Mortara, which since their retreat from the Sesia had become the central position of their line, and their retreating route is said to have been in a south-easterly direc• tion towards Vigevano, Bereguardo, and Pavia. The two latter of these towns are on the Lombardy side of the Ticino, and there could be little doubt that the object of the movement was to concentrate the Austrian forces in the neighbourhood of Pavia and Piacenza, in order to cover those fortresses. The precipitancy with which this operation was ef• fected and the abandonment of the stores of grain which had been collected were not without their import ; for they indicated that the Austrians had learnt that the preparations of the Allies were com plete, and that they might be expected at an early period to assume the offensive. The Austrians, therefore, bad several days ago given up their raid into Piedmont. It was commenced without any adequate object, and it was, even when the retreat appeared open, neither advantageous nor glorious. When Austria so promptly declared war and moved her army forward Europe gave her credit for the conception of a great enterprise, and was prepared to excuse the precipitancy of the attack on account of the certainty that a struggle must ensue, and of the advantage of a decisive blow struck at the com mencement of the campaign. When this usually sluggish Power started so unexpectedly into action we expected to see her move rapidly upon Turin, blockade the passes of the Alps, cut off the commu nications with Alessandria, and make an attempt upon Genoa. It was a quick scheme for an Aus trian imagination, but if there was no design of this character, everyone asked what could be the object of this sudden fit of military ardour. It is, how ever, now clear that there was no plan worthy of being called a plan of campaign ; that there was nothing better than the old plans of the Aulic Council, which Napoleon used to read first, and which the Austrian Generals afterwards received and clumsily carried out. The Austrians commenced the campaign of 1859 with a direct infraction of that rule which is of equal authority in the game of war and the game of chess-." Avoid useless moves." Their military policy in this was neither generous nor chivalrous, nor even :expedient . They wasted the open cou n t ry where there was no resistance ; they avoided the fortresses, they attempted no serious attack, and they retreated before the first demonstration made by their enemy in force. We saw them swarm over the Ticino and settle like locusts upon the plains ; we heard of them eating u? all the resources of the townspeople and the peasantry ; wa were told that they were putting out foraging parties and exploring parties here and there, and advancing whenever there was no resis tance. Then they took up a position upon the line of the Sesia, and fortified themselves as though they had made up their minds to advance step by step until they had occupied the country. Timidly and cautiously they felt their way,—once, and once only, they made an attack, not with a great object, but simply with a desire to know where their enemy lay. Meanwhile the allies had actively utilized the time which the Austrians had been wasting. The French soldiers as they arrived had been passed up to the front, and the supplies had been collected in those convenient stations for which the railways afforded copious facilities. The Austrians had tarried in the plains while the allied force was growing; they began to retreat when they found it mature in strength. We have already several times pointed the obvious consideration that it would be madness for the Austrians to risk a battle on the Sardinian side of the broad and swollen frontier river Ticino. It was quite clear that if they retreated ataallrtday nighthey , would they re i t e i y re hbaed yond that point. On Saturday reached the banks of the river, and were preparing to cross it at the fords and bridges they had tra versed when they came as invaders. To cover this movement Gyulai ordered a feint upon Mortara, which they had just before abandoned, THE SUM, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 6, 1859. .111111101.

What is most striking is the quiet and good humour which prevails, in spite of the frequent delays and contretemps which natu rally occur under such circumstances. Yesterday, the 11th anniversary of the battle of Goito, when the Piedmontese effected so brilliant a passage across the Mineio, was chosen as the day for advancing. The PiedrnontesQ had yesterday, too, the honour of beginning the forward movement under the per sonal direction of the King. As you will have read in the bulletin, they took possession, after an obsti nate resistance, of the three villages of Pale'stro, Casalino, and Vinzaglio,:all three in advance on the road to Mortara. Two cannon and aborat 300 pri soners and wounded were the trophir, s . The glory is entirely due to the Piedmontev., ; for, although considerable masses of the French troops had already crossed, they took no part in the action. Thu Piedmontese deserve it amply, for, according to all accounts, they fought with great bravery. It is in a great measure due to the nature of the ground, so favourable for the defenders, that the Austrians could oppose the resistance they did. Fancy a low country, intersected with ditches and dikes, and studded with wood just sufficiently thick to afford shelter to the defenders and to impede the deploy ing of large masses. The villages themselves are all built of stone and brick, every house easily crJe verted into a little stronghold, while the farm houses, which are dispersed. all about the. 'country, form so many positions. It is altogeth e r a country made for retarding the advance of an e:iemy. Curiously enough, the Austrian troop s which were in the front were Italian, and most of the prisoners, of whom 206 have been brougb#,, in from this first engagement, belong to a Lore}Jard regiment. They have been shut up in a elrurch, where they have become the objects of cor.siderable curiosity. Yesterday, while the battle was still going on, about 4 o'clock in. the afternoon, his Majesty the Emperor arrived here. In spite of the rain, which had lasted since the morning, a considerable crowd had collected at the railway station, and cheered him heartily on his arrival. He drove off to the Bishop's Palace, a building situate on the out skirts of the town, close to the high road to No vara. The crowd followed and collected before the he - ase, which has since become the great centre of attraction. Almost immediately after his arrival he went out to the battlefield, from which he returned at sunset. In the evening the town was illuminated. There is a quaint old Place in the cen tre of the town, which is picturesque with all the irregularity of a medixval Italian town. All round this Place runs a row of arcades supported by massive, pointed arches, and with copious remains of a very original tracery in brick. This square forms the great lounging place, which is one of the never failing features of every Italian city. The Emperor, leaning on the arm of one of his Generals, made a tour in the town in the evening, Passing through this square, on which the greatest efforts at illumination had been made, and which showed itself even to greater advantage in this attire, amid the cheers of the crowd. It is not astonishing to see the Italians in good humour with him—they certainly have reason to be so; but what one cannot help remarking is the excitement which his passage causes among his own troops. They throng on his road as if they had never seen him, and the cheers which his presence elicits from them show how popular he must be among them. The cheers with which the Emperor was received had scarcely died away when several carts of wounded passed, forming one of those strange con trasts which are so common in war time. This morning the whole infantry of the Guard arrived here, the Chasseurs-a-Pied, the beau ideal of an infantry soldiery, leading the way. Although they came in after a tolerable march, having passed the night at Trino, they looked as game, if not as ornamental, as if they had just come out of their barracks, and the dust and mud only gave them a more martial and serviceable appearance. They passed through the streets, which were thronged by a shouting crowd, while from the windows rained down upon them showers of flowers. Although the appearance of French troops has ceased to be a novelty in these parts, the enthusiasm of the popu lation seems inexhaustible. This festive reception cannot but pro luce a great effect on the morale of the soldier, and the disposition is such that positive disappointment is felt at the continual retreat of the Austrians. The only fear with the troops seem to be lest the Austrians should deprive them of the chance of beating them in the open field. This ap prehension is explained by the seemingly incompre hensible movements of the Austrians, who allowed the French army to take its own time for prepara tion, satisfying themselves with feeling about their way in the most cautious manner ; it is strengthened by their slow retreat now before the Piedmontese army. A few days will very likely show the true state of the matter. It may be that they have chosen their own battle ground, or that they have been out-manoeuvred by the sudden movement to the Sesia of the French army, which, after the affair at Montebello, they must have known to be concentrated behind the Po. The most pro bable supposition is, that both these reasons have combined to induce them to fall back. It is well known that a strong force of Austrians were two days ago on the right bank of the Po. The last French soldier had scarcely left Voghera when already the Austrian drums were heard. They occupied Voghera the day befo re yesterday, and burnt it down. As a reason for this, it is said that at the time of the first occupation of Voghera by the Austrians the National Guard and the population had attacked and cut off some of the Austrian patrols. Of one thing there can be no doubt—the Austri ans are retiring slowly before the Piedmontese in the direction of Mortara, and that they have like wise retreated, but without fighting, toward Novara. This morning, just at the moment when the Pied montese army was on the point of following up its success of yesterday and breaking forth from the villages occupied yesterday, an Austrian force, which had marked its advance behind the trees, which border almost ever field, and behind the high crops, came up to attack it. They came up at the same time from the side of Palestro and Confienza, two villages, from both of which a road leads to Robbio and Mortara. Thanks to the nature of the ground, they had placed their batteries on the banks of a little stream, a branch of the little river Boggia Sartorina, which runs about parallel to the road leading from Confienza to Robbio. The force which the Austrians brought to bear to-day is estimated at more than 20,000, and the result of the whole was, that after several hours of hard fighting, the Austrians were not only driven from their original position, but pressed back as far as Robbio. The trophies of to-day are more con siderable than those of yesterday, eight guns and several hundred prisoners, but the details in this respect are as yet imperfectly known. With the exception of a regiment of Zouaves, no French troops were engaged in this action. so that the Piedmontese may claim the victory for themselves. If one is to judge from the number of wounded which have been brought in, the fighting must have been obstinate, and must have cost them dear. This is not surprising, for the guns which the Aus • trians had put in position had to be taken at the point of the bayonet.

You must not ex pect this first letter long, for there is so much to do and so much to see that very little time remains for thinking and writing, The mystery of this unusual movement, which contrasts so strongly with the dul ness of the last month, is explained in a few words. The allied armies have completed their preparations and are advancing, and advancing with a rapidity and energy which must silence those who were so impatient and expected battle after battle, and victory after victory, 24 hours after the populations of Genoa and Turin had saluted so vociferously the first French troops. No doubt, we have to thank in a great measure the Austrians, who allowed us to make all these preparations without thinking of disturbing them, except by some partial effort, such as that at Mon tebello and the little skirmishes along the Sesia. There, were those who smiled at the idea of the Emperor taking the command of his army in person. They ought to have been on the spot, and seen the manlier in which this magnificent army has been collected, provided with everything, pro tected against any possible attempt on the part of the enemy to disturb these preparations, and they ought to see now the manner in which this army is brought with unexampled rapidity to the desired point, and they would, I think, already forget smil ing, for this is due to the Emperor himself ; it is he who keeps every thing together—he who directs and guides. One fact will show more than anything else how he does this. Not more than four or five days ago the body of the French army was eche loned from Voghera along the Po and to Alessan dria, and thence to Valenza and Casale, and to-day this mass, with the exception of the Guards, has passed the Sesia, and all this without confusion, without accident, and with such great skill that until yesterday the general impression was that the movement of the army would be quite in another direction—that is, towards the east. This impression was so strong that the rumour, which was spread on purpose, that the Imperial head quarters would be transferred to Voghera was fully credited. No doubt, the repeated preparations of departure from Alessandria contributed consider ably to this success. It was yesterday and the day before that the movement assumed its proper shape. Up to this moment the great object was to take up• a defensive position, so as to be able to bring up the French army in line. To realise what an army of above 100,000 men is, is something like trying'to acquire a distinct idea of millions of money. It can never be done unless by actual contemplation, and the most lively imagination must remain behind the reality. Now, you must know that all the materiel and the larger part of all the provisions has to come from France—all the hundred thousand tons of stores, artillery, munitions, and pontoons. Tho question was how to do this undisturbed, for the least confusion would have retarded all these preparations in a frightful proportion. As, there fore, the French troops arrived they were sent to the front, in order to check any attempt on the part of the Austrians. Thus, by degrees, the French corps d'armee were echeloned along the line of the Po from Casteggio, Voghera, Castelnuovo, and Sale, to Bassignano, with Alessandria and Tortona as points d'appui, while the Piedmontese army occu pied the line from Valenza to Casale, and, since the retreat of the Austrians, to Vercolli. The first point was to gain a passage across the Sesia, one of those broad swampy rivers which in tersect the upper Italian plains. There was only one bridge from Vercelli over it, built on arches of fine masonry. It served for the railway as well as for the great chaussee to Novara. The Austrians, you will remember, blew up two arches of this fine bridge; to re-establish them in the face of the Austrians would have taken too much time and trouble, and would very likely have attracted too much attention towards this point. The Sardinian division Cialdini received therefore the mission to effect a passage across the Sesia, which, as you know, was done with complete success more than a week ago. Cialdini established himself at Borgo Vercelli, the first considerable place on the road to Novara. A bridge was immediately constructed, and thus a communication secured between the two banks of the river. Since that time gradually the mass of the Sardinian army has been concentrated on that point, the different corps of the French army succeeding and occupying the places left by them. The day before yesterday the King himself trans ferred his head-quarters from Casale to Borgo Vercelli, a little village a couple of miles beyond the river. Already another bridge had been con structed by the French engineers to facilitate the passage of the French army, and the French troops began to cross over. In the movement of the latter from the right to the left of the line the railway played a considerable part, and certainly, for a. first trial of the use of railways in warfare, the success was indeed brilliant. Troops which would have had five or six days' hard marching were trans ported often in so many hours to the place of their destination. This had the desired advantage of relieving the passage of the others on the road, which would have been too much encumbered other wise, and of saving a large mass of troops the fatigue of a forced march. This latter consideration would have been the least important, for there never, perhaps, has been an army in finer marching condition than the French army here. Were it not for the mass, one might almost imagine they were picked troops. The greater part of them are soldi ers of several years' standing, by their age, mostly fr om 25 to 30 ; from their free and elastic step, and their thorough soldierlike 7 ( themeP' //~ -~ TEE NEW RUSSIAN FRIGATE, GENERAL-ADMIRAL. The new 6,000 ton war ship General-Admiral, ust completed at this port for the Russian Govern ment, went on her trial trip yesterday, leaving the foot of Canal-street at 7 o'clock a.m., with five or six hundred invited guests on board, among whom we observed Mr. Ostensacken, Secretary of the Russian Legation ; Capt. Faunce, of the cutter Harriet Lane ; Chief Engineers Everitt and. Mart:bit. United States Navy, and merchants and sea cap tains. On account of the prevalence of a fog it was not deemed prudent to cross the bar at Sandy Hook, and so the steamer cruised around the harbour during the day, instead of going to sea as had beeh intended. The trial, though not affording the best opportunity for testing the speed of the ship, for want of sea room, was very satisfactary, and highly enjoyed by those on board. The General-Admiral is the largest wooden steamer afloat, and is un doubtedly superior in workmanship to anything which Americans have ever built. It may even be asserted, without fear of contra diction, that she is nowhere excelled as a vessel of war. Her builders in every department hove been more ambitious to construct a ship which shall worthily represent American skill (perhaps to invite further proposals) than to derive the largest possible amount of direct pecu niary advantage in their own behalf. Moreover, they have been unrestricted in expenditure, as appears very evident fsom the way in which the work is executed. A large proportion of the castings are of brass, and very massive ; the fastenings are of the same character throughout as to quality and strength ; the timbers are the choicest products of our forests, and ingenuity has been fruitfully em ployed in the application of the most approved enginery and naval architecture. The entire amount expended, exclusive of armament, which will be put on board at Cronstadt (with the exception of two powerful Dahlgren shell guns, placed on pivots fore and aft), is about 1,250,000 dollars. The two mon ster guns already mounted appear to be about 10 feet long by two in diameter in the largest part, and being made to revolve on moveable railways, may be used with effect either in pursuit or while in retreat. They are formidable engines, capable of throwing shot with accuracy to a distance almost incredible. On either side of the spacious gun deck ore arranged, opposite the 90 portholes, the massive mahogany carriages, ready for their armament, thus completing the furniture of this superb " slaughter house." The Emperor Alexander, no doubt, designs this ship as a model for the imitation of his own artisans in future years. A considerable number of Russian gentlemen, some 15 or 20, have diligently co-operated with our mechanics, not only to secure a good ship, but to perfect themselves, as far as possible, in the different departments of nautical science. In the result they challenge the severest criticism. The General-Admiral will carry 90 guns. She has a pair of horizontal back-action engines ; cylinders 84 inches in diameter, with 45 inches stroke of piston. The shaft has a diameter of 17 inches in the journals, and weighs about 27 tons. The propeller is wholly of brass, is two bladed, and weighs 13 tons. The other brasswork connected, such as chains, hoisting frame, &0., weighs 12 tons more. The whole length of the line of propeller shafting is 124 feet. The air pumps are worked direct from the pistons, and are arranged with rub ber foot and delivery valves. There are six hori zontal tubular boilers, with 38 furnaces, having in the aggregate 21,000 square feet of fire surface and 700 feet of grate surface, and comprise not less than 15,900 brass tubes. Their aggregate weight is 240 tons, and the water filling them weighs 300 tons more. All the boilers are connected by one telescope smoke-pipe 11 feet in diameter. Besides, there is one donkey boiler for driving two donkey steam pumps and blowing the furnaces. There are also hose connexions on every deck, for extinguishing fires ; and Dr. Reed's ventilating apparatus, by which all parts of the ship timbers and cabins are effectually purified, is supplied with power from the same source. These engines are from the Novelty Iron Company's works in this city, and are believed to equal, if not surpass, any marine machinery before made in this country. The hull, as is well known, is from the eminent builder, W. H. Webb. Its length over all is 325 feet, breadth of beam 55 feet, depth of hold 34 feet, It is need less to repeat the other details of dimensions, &c. The General-Admiral returned to her wharf about six o'clock, and a shower had little effect in dampen ing the enthusiasm of those who had so bountifully , shared the hospitality of Mr. Webb and his Mus covite patrons. She was at one time, notwithstand ing the fog, worked up to the speed obtained on her former (engineer's) trip, when she easily made 10 knots with 40 evolutions, going from Governor's Island to Fort Hamilton, a little over seven statute or about six nautical miles, in 36 minutes. She is a work of which our mechanics may well be proud, and we are not surprised e t irn o igeau le ni a r r isnh n gi that age n t s o f p w ya it r h ds re o f f e o re th n e ce r t f o or t e h ig e n co g n o s r t e ru rn e m tio e n nt i s n a A r m e vessels of this description. The General -Admiral will leave port early next month for Cronstadt, via Cherbourg, under the command of Capt. Comstock, late of the Baltic.—New York Journal of Commerce, Nlay 21. A SHIP ON FIRE AT SEA.-NARROW ESCAPE. LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY. By the arrival of the West India mail intelligence reached this port of the narrow escape from total destruction of the fine new ship Florence Nightingale, of Liverpool, while on her outward passage to Arica, at which port she arrived on the 18th Ap r il. From a letter received by the owners this morning from the commander, Captain James Gales, of which the following is an extract, it will be seen that, but for the promptitude and energy displayed, the loss, not on l y o f lif e, b u t of property, on the occasion might have been very serious _ Captain Gale says--" On the 17th March experi enced very severe weather, off Cape Horn, and on ' the 28th March, i n l a t . 58 S. long. 76 W., it blow ing at the time a h ar d gale from N.W., and ship hove to under close-reefed topsails, the after - hold was discove re d t o b e on fire. I ran below, and found the flames bursting through the cabin deck. The hose was immediately screwed to the fine engine, which is a very powerful one, and in less than a minute from the time of the discovery of the fire, large quantities of water were being poured on it. We got axes and saws, and cut the cabin deck up. For a long time, in every . part of the ship, as fast as we subdued the flames in one part they kept breaking out in another. We at length got them under, and then kept playing on the burning embers until(ii.teheni-oetwN,aest fortunatelyn o y v ati chance hu ea. valuable--chiefly gle ......0 0 0 f de t sb h i e be i efi r nye abthobreakingbottled out again.

Upon this weakened right wing, engaged in the pass age o f th e r i ver a t th e b r id ge of Bufalora, the French attack seems to have fallen, and the French and Sardinians appear to have fol lowed their retreating enemy over the bridge, and to have ultimately defeated him at the village about two miles on the other side of the river. Of course, these are speculations which detailed accounts of this battle must either confirm, or modify, or destroy. We put them only as proba bilities deducible from the previously known facts. Meanwhile Paris is bright with universal illumi nation, Milan is welcoming her new master, and Italy is rejoicing in a hope of recovered nationality.
