THE AUSTRIAN ARMY. (Front the Times Special Correspoadent) VERONA, Aug. 6. H. J. and D. NICOLL, COURT TAILORS. LONDON- -114 to 120, Regent-street, and 22, Cornbill. MANCHESTER-10, Mosley-street. LIVERPOOL-50, Bold-street. In my last letter I related some particulars of an excursion to the outposts of the Austrian army before Pergine, in the Val Saguna, about three and a half miles from Trent; but as all the world except Gen. Kuhn and his Staff were in a torpid state in the City of the Council, I started next day for Verona to see how things were going on there, and to visit the field of Custozza. The single train which runs from Botzen to Verona daily is exclusively em ployed on military service, and no one can proceed to or fro without a pass. General Kuhn was good enough to forward the proper document—a " pas sirschein"—to be shown at headquarters, Verona ; and, in company with two English officers who were travelling to observe the rival armies in the field, I started by the train from Trent at 5 o'clock on the afternoon of the 4th August. We found Gen. Kuhn and some members of his Staff at the station ; and, indeed, there is little done in Trent which that keen-eyed commander does not inspect. What a man he is for loopholes ! If in former communica tions I have ever appeared to censure the Austrians for neglecting precautions, it is but just to say Kuhn -atones for all deficiencies. He has a mania for loop holes. I do not see how a single creature from Trent to the end of the valley of the Adige can escape cold, neuralgia, and rheumatism, for man, woman, and child must have at least one loophole open night and day in the sitting-room or bedroom, and even in church they are not safe from draughts. All the villages, all the towns, are perforated profusely, and every man's house, detached though it be and far apart from any neighbour—is his castle in a sense very different from that intended by the lawyers. Mines are being laid, rocks blasted, roads com manded, batteries thrown up on all sides of the city with immense energy. As the General was walking about the station he said naively, in reply to a re mark that he had not suspended his preparations on account of the peace, " The peace ! I know nothing about it. I have seen something in newspapers about peace being likely when the armistice is over, but I have not had any official communication on the sub ject." The valley of the Adige was simmering in the heat of an August afternoon, and our carriage was filled with more than its legitimate number, but as they all wore uniforms, and we were only there on suffer ance, we could only pant and bear it. There were not a dozen civilians in the train. The station of Trent is under guard, with fixed bayonets. Every station on the way to Verona is the centre of a detach ment which has outposts high in air among the moun tains overhead, and one can readily understand the ennui of an officer quartered on a bed of gneiss or granite 6,000 feet up there in a time of truce, cut off from letters, papers, and books for days together, stinted in food, and destitute of the smallest luxury. A Vienna dandy must have great internal resources if he does not feel a little Weary now and then in the course of the week, and particularly as there is small chance of active service afterwards. Our fellow passengers were not in bad spirits, and one lively adjutant of a Jager battalion, who had been shot through the right arm, kept up the good-humour of his comrades by many anecdotes of the Italian cam paign, and amused even the sufferer from a more recent wound, whose wrist and hand were badly in jured by a bullet. Some got out and others got in along the line, and a British subaltern would have been taken much aback had he been treated to the embraces exchanged by the officers on parting or meeting. Indeed, Kuhn, rugged and martial as he is, gave two sounding smacks to a general whom he saw off at Trent, such as no English Achilles ever be stowed on his dearest Patroclus, though it is saidthe great Duke had to suffer a goof deal in that way from enthusiastic allies. All the world knows the valley of the Adige from Trent to Verona, and would have seen little change in it. The ruined castles still keep watch and ward over glen and pass. Churches (all wellventilated by General Kuhn) on lofty crags attest the devotion of Tyrolese congregations— villages, speckling the mountain sides with white patches, seem to have clambered out of the valley to escape floods and tax-gatherers, and monasteries and religious houses close at hand are ready to glean their harvest of souls undisturbed by the noise of civilised life among the ravens and lammergeiers. Far and near, however, they are all open to the breezes of Heaven, which are generally many and strong in these parts, for the inevitable loophole has been among them and covered their white faces with an eruption of black specks. Here, as all over Austria, the land is seamed with white, for soldiers are visible at all the important places, and commerce and war differ in their ideas as to what constitutes import ance, so that in the Tyrol soldiers are to be found in very unlooked-for places guarding what com merce would consider very uninteresting and insig nificant positions. Notwithstanding the contrast between rifled guns and cross-bows, the ancient engineers were influ enced in the selection of sites for their works by very similar considerations to those which determine the choice of the moderns, and if you see the ruins of an old fortification in a pass in the Tyrol you may be pretty sure the Austrians are not far off to-day. Near Negliany, where the remains of a magnificent castle show where some chiefs once took toll of pilgrims and merchants on their way between the great Italian cities of the plains and the busy marts of mediaeval Germany, there are seated three modern fortresses. One is a casemated work in a gorge, through which the Adige flow s in a deep con tracted stream. Another, high on the rocks above, sweeps road and river, and crosses its fire with that of a third perched on a crag at the opposite side, and all three seemed to watch the traveller with their dull black eyes till it has been borne away through the fast receding and diminishing Alps, and handed over to the care of the redoubts and bastions on the plain around Verona. It was almost night before the train stopped at the Porta Nuova, outside the gates of Verona. Through the falling shade, long before we reached the bridge over the Adige above the city, the dark outlines of casemated works and of low redoubts could be seen all around above the level of the scrubby mulberry trees and fields of Indian corn which render the plain of Lombardy so monotonous and tiresome to the traveller and so troublesome to the soldier. Some of the villages were deserted, but in the open spaces troops could be seen on parade, and the pa rapets were well-manned with soldiers looking at the train as the great sensation of the day. Since my last visit to Verona the number of outworks has been increased, and they seem now to be placed on two lines outside the regular fortifications of the city. They are detached, but so close together that nothing living could pass between their fire, and the whole country is so level that not a man could come within range of the guns unobserved. The pro cesses of agriculture have tended to increase the strength of the position created by the labours of the engineer, for the ground has been cleared of stones, which are piled up in wall-like lines all over the country, and, as they are small and round, like 31b shot, a ball or shell striking one of the heaps would scatter it like grape or canister. Much as fortified places have fallen into disrepute, the most daring General would not like to attack Verona, and few places - would offer greater obstacles to the progress or a regular siege, provided all the works with be fully manned, and that they ar e armed the best modern artillery. I believe there al! 33 re - doubts and regular works around Verona in addi tion to field fortifications. On entering the city by the Porta Nuova, inside the dry ditch, we we re stopped by the guard and asked for our passports, but the signature and offi cial seal of the Commander of the Tyrol were an all -sufficing " Open Sesame" to the city of the Ca pulets and Montagues.

STAMPED sd. outside the military cafe, and all the square btweeen it and the grand old Amphitheatre was filled by the Veronese, listening perforce to the music which certainly was not the " food of love" in their case. And, dividing the gay crowd, we made for the nearest hotel at hand, and set about our plans for the morrow. It was, like many plans, easier and finer in conception than execution. The train for Trent leaves Verona at 630 a.m. We intended to get up before daybreak, drive out to Somma Cam pagna, visit the battlefield of Custozza, drive back, catch the train, and return to Trent next morning. But, in the first place, no one can leave Verona till after sunrise ; and, next, he must have a passport ; and, thirdly, the battlefield was two and a half good miles further away than• we anticipated, so the scheme was finally declared to be quite too splendid to be practicable. General Kuhn's passport was returned from head-quarters with General Jacob's visa, and we engaged a most intelligent and learned vetturino, who knew, we were told, every inch of the ground, and could point out the positions of " Piedmontese" and Austrians, who might but for our official pan port have possibly been termed " Italiani" and " Tedesci" respectively. There are no two gentlemen of Verona who can view the present state of affairs with satisfaction, be they Austrians or Italians. When I went down to the coffee-room, or salle a manger, or whatever it was, at the Golden Pigeon and asked for a news paper, the man was as much shocked as if I had de manded the head of an Austrian General for break fast. " Newspapers are not allowed," said he, " for some time past, but we have these given to us by travellers ;" and he pointed to some Vienna jour nals from three to five weeks old on the dingy table. " Well, what news have you got ?" " Ah, Signor, we never have news in Verona. No !no! no news. What will he have fOr breakfast ?" Steam, tele graph, and the march of intellect, notwithstanding, here is a city of 60,000 people full of intellectual life—a city famous in the world for its culture of the arts and sciences beforo the name of Austria had been invented or discovered, deprived of the smallest interchange of thought with the whole of the human race outside the grim forts and silent earthworks which hem it in and cut it off from the associations that give such a charm to the life of modern society. If measures like these were necessary—if, however odious, they made Austrian rule in Italy safe or respected, we might feel the force of them, but it cannot be maintained that the Austrians have succeeded in making themselves either thoroughly feared or greatly loved. The field of Custozza will probably be for ever memorable as the last battle fought between Aus trians and Italians on the Lombardo-Venetian king dom. It will be remarkable as an anomalous action, in which the victors had no locus standi, and in which the vanquished were fighting to obtain from their conquerors what they had already given away. Just as near as the Austrians were to winning Koniggratz must the Italians have been to winning Custozza or Monte Croce. If a survey of the ground and the re ports of the peasantry in the villages are to be trusted the Italians should have gained the day, and all the stories we have heard about the superiority of the Austrian position over that of their enemies must be discredited. The Archduke Albrecht's detailed report, as far as I know, has not yet been written, or at all events published, but as the battle lasted from 8 o'clock in the morning till 6 o'clock in the evening, and as the Italians did not cross the Alincio till the following day, it may be conceived that the encounter was very severe, and that the victory won was by no means to be considered as decisive. If there were any doubt on the latter point it would be removed from my mind, at all events, by the fact that the Austrians threw up earthworks and made batteries and abattis in front of their position from the rear of Somma Campagna to Custozza after the battle, and remained on the ground for 17 days afterwards watching the Italian army. I have been spending some hours of one of the hottest days of an Italian August among their works, wandering over the ground on which the battle was fought, and I came a way with the conviction that the Italians had the best of it, and ought to have won the victory had they been equal in endurance to the Austrians. AUGSBURG, Aug. 8, p.m. In a future letter I intend to give an account of the battle field, but as I am now in search of the vanishing fragments of the Bund army before it be dissolved I have been on the march incessantly, and this letter is interrupted by the urgent demands of the departing postman at Augsburg. In the telegraphic summary of the Allegemeine Zeitung, which I have just seen seen, it is stated that the immediate provisioning of Verona is going on in pursuance of orders, and that the Italian land and sea forces will be raised to their full strength. Now, so far from any steps being taken to provi sion Verona to stand a siege or become the basis of operations of an army, I can assert, on the best of all possible authority, that the Austrian troops in garrison there have not enough to eat at present. The authority to which I refer is the actual fact that when I was coming from Verona, the day be fore yesterday, there were several Austrian officers coming up to Trent and Botzen to buy provisions for themselves and their men. Their conversation turned altogether on the scarcity of supplies and the n eglect and shortcomings of the commissariat. One field officer, who expressed his surprise at the state of affairs among the troops, said that he had lately been speaking to the Commissariat Superintendent, who told him the men were very well off, which pro duced a strong and unanimous negative. And, in fact, one officer got out at Caliano, another at some other small station, and others at Trent and Botzen, to look for whatever they could find. If the Italians hear of provisions being sent down to Verona, as suredly they need not take it as a sign of hostile in tentions at present, and may spare their outlay on fleet and army. Just see how Verona is situated. The Italians are at Vicenza, and cut off all commu nication on the east. The demarcation line presses it on the south, and Pesehiera on the west must look for supplies to Verona, as the service of steamers on the Lago di Garda is suspended. All supplies, therefore, must be carried down by the Brenner pass, and the intricate communications through the Tyrol. The news of peace is, in fact, distasteful to the Italians and to the Austrians of the southern army. Nothing would please General Kuhn and many a worthy brother in arms so much as the opportunity of driving De Medici on the one side and the Garibaldini on the other out of the Tyrol at the point of the bayonet, as they believe they could do, while the Italians are burning passionate fever to do battle by sea and landbtonva: ° been Lissa and Custozza.

It is painful as well as instructive to see the ruin which has been caused by the diversion of the cotton trade from its accustomed channel. We would naturally look for this ruin to the port which lost so lucrative an export, not to that which gained it. It is, however, to Bombay and not to New Orleans we must turn our eyes to behold the full effect of the disaster, for disaster we cannot help considering it. For four years Bombay has had almost a mono.. poly in the supply of this staple. For the account of the present position of the capital of the Western Presidency we are indebted to the Bombay Times, July 9. "Although ruin and insolvency," writes this journal, " are overtaking all the well-known merchants, and even the capitalists of the island, yet it is believed that large numbers in the third or fourth ranks of commerce will escape failure, and some may be ready to take the places of well known but ruined native merchants. Until all liabilities are ascertained and some degree of con fidence is restored, such changes cannot take place. But it is already remarked that those who have mainly confined their operations to import trade, and have avoided excessive speculations, are in funds and in a sound position." Then follows a list of financial companies, banking insii tutions, and reclamation schemes winding up and in a state of insolvency ; schemes the shares of which but a short time ago commanded extravagant premiums, the possessors being considered objects of envy. A sudden influx of wealth is rarely of permanent benefit to a country. It requires strong heads to withstand the temptation to speculation thereby fostered. At first all is gain, made with the greatest ease, requiring no discernment, and but little credit, given at such times to every one witl a good coat on his back. Examples of rapid for_ tunes accumulated from nothing become numerous, and the infection spreads. It is almost irresistible when Jones sees a stupid fellow like Brown pass him at one bound in the race of life. Jones can jump as well as Brown ; so Jones takes the loap timidly at first, but with increasing confidence, with almost unhoped-for success. The contagion spreads until it becomes epidemic, and men and women rush headlong into the vortex. The means seem to grow as, dirt in the Augean stable, in threefold the quant4y it is shovelled out. The legitimate article of barter which has caused the mania becomes only one of many roads to wealth suddenly opened out to the charmed eyes of the frantic crowd. The main body rush panting after the biggest and most alluring bubble. Joint-Stock Companies grow apace, and that promoter who most audaciously calculates o n the gullibility of the multitude meets with the greatest success. But little more than a year ago the concoctors of schemes, which would now be termed insane, held a position of influence far out stripping that of the Governor. The big officials sank into small people. Little officials disappeared from society ; and officers of the army, who bad nothing but their pay, could afford meat only twice a week. The rent of houses went from tens to hundreds, food became enormously dear, and labour of all kinds rose in proportion. The change was magical—society was turned upside down, and Bombay awoke to a dream of wealth which might have appeared to a Parsee fire-worshipper as a scene from the Arabian Nights. It is not an easy task to extract money from a Hindoo —yet, in this marvellous transformation, the caution which makes him consider mother earth as the safest bank for a deposit, forsook him. The fat baboo, aided by his wife, who stripped herself of trinkets—the calculating Parsee—the more reckless Mahom medan—were all carried away by the delusion, and shares in schemes so wild that they will scarcely be credited when the history of the Bombay Bubble comes to be told, were scrambled for by the Asiatic throng with a Babel of Bedlam. At first all went on charmingly. The illusion was equal in powers of deception to a mirage, and no warnings of the journals, and some few wise men who kept their heads, were strong enough to have a moment's influence on the reckless speculators. King Cotton had paid the city a visit, and turned the people's heads. As the American war drew to wards its close, many of the more far-seeing began to be uneasy, but the vortex was so swift, and the mass of them were so involved in its whirl, it was impossible to withdraw. One morning Bombay awoke to find the American war at an end ; Rich mond had been captured by Grant—Lee had sur rendered in irretrievable defeat, and the Southern President was a captive in the hands of the victorious North. Here was another Arabian Nights' scene. The water-carrier awoke to find himself Haroun al-Raschid, and the pseudo Sultan went to bed; to awake—the water-carrier ; and the last state of the poor man was worse than the first. So it was with Bombay. There was a tremendous bill to pay, and when the people began to overhaul their means of liquidating the liabilities, they discovered all was moonshine. What became of the gigantic sums shipped into the Presidency from England and Aus tralia has not been told; but the city, after awaking from its dream of wealth, went into a sort of general liquidation. An after rise in the price of cotton enabled them till lately to resume business. The first shock appears, however, to have been too much, and news of the London panic again prostrates them. The next time Bombay receives £80,000,000 for cotton she may keep it, and turn it to a better account. But we most sincerely hope that many a will be bestowed, before such a sum be g long year will elapse, and that much pataienatinlapbaoiudr. —Anglo-American Times. _~ The Neutrality Laws.

Would it be for our honour as a nation to permit preparations for war on our territories, intended to be waged against nations with which we are at peace ? We could scarcely hope to escape from being involved in difficulties with the nations out raged by such proceedings. And what would be our recompense? Nothing but the satisfaction of annoying Great Britain.

FEMALE BEAUTY.—The plainest face is redeemed by a lovely skin and colour; the most beautiful is not per fect without it. Paints and powders are absurd to the eyes of beholders, and deceive none but the silly wearers of those ruinous applications. A gentlewoman of rank, from philanthropic motives, is anxious to impart to every one of her sex, rich or poor, the means of procuring the most beautiful natural complexion by wholesome, simple, effective, and inexpensive means.—Send stamped directed envelope for particulars to Mrs'.
