I NNA, Saturday.—This inorn:ig, a great reli to,-Ils solemnity, with procession and public prayers, Place here, imploring Heaven to bless our arms victory. All the members of the Imperial Nv a — "Y, and:the ministers, were present. The mass read by Monseigneur Lucca, the nuncio of the 'tr_ INDIA ROUE for preparations, satisfying themselves. with feeling about their e` , :tvay: in 'the ' most cautious • manner; it - strengthened' by their stow retreat now before the Piedmontese army. A few days will very likely show the true istate 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 of Monte bello, they must have known to be concentrated behind the Po. The most probable 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. Pp. The 'last French soldier had scarcely left Voghera when already the Austrian drums were heard. They occupied VOghera the day before yesterday, and burnt it down. As a reason of this it is given, 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 patrolles. Of one thing there can be no doubt, the AustrianS are retiring slowly before the Piedmontese in the direction of Mortara, and that. they have likewise retreated but with out fighting, towards Novara. This morning, just at the moment whn the Piedmontese army was on the point of following up its success of yesterday and break forth from the villages occupied yesterday, an Austrian force, which had marked its advance behind the trees, which border almost every 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 Baggia 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 Us RObbio. The trophies of to-day are more considerable 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 other 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 considerably. This is not surprising, for the guns which the Austrians had . put in position had to be taken - at the point of the bayonet. The Zouaves surpassed the- selves. Arranged on the slope before P stream, they were greeted by the fireW the Austrian battery and by the Tyrolese Chasseurs ensconced in the high crops. Oestro, toward! The scream lo . oked, so insignificant that when the Or to drive away the Ansrians, the Zouaves threw them selves 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 cartridges they carry in the pockets of their loose trousers. They were thus unable to use them. Nothing daunted by this contretemps or the bail 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 PiedmonteSe who had the greatest share in the victory. There have been hitherto 302 prisoners (not wounded) brought in, among them several officers, . and the wounded still continue to arrive. • Among the prisoners the Lombard regiment, which lost so many men yesterday, is again. strongly-represented. It seems that when the Anstrians determined to retire to the position, chosen by them, theyleft this regiment hindmost ; I do not know whether to show that they could trust their Italian soldiers, or because they thought their loss the least important. The Emperor went again out to-day to the battle-field, and remained there till late in the afternoon THE BRAZILS. Full details of the news to hand by the Brazil Mail have reached us. From Buenos Ayres we learn that the long threatened invasion of the province of Buenos Ayres by Urquisa was, at the date of the packet sailing, considered inevitable. The contingents of Entre Rios and Corrientes were moving towards Rossario, where the invading army was being concentrated. The Government of Buenos Ayres-has p•iven cedwtghreesositvheer no new motive for this fresh act of hostility. Its liberal institutions, ompal. it p h ro i p m ro p v o i r n ta c e n s 7 , a o con are ands Up P p r Os s e P d e rtitY' as - stitute the motives for Urquisa's implacable hatred. Should the invasion not be successfully suppressed the whole province will be laid waste and 'ruined. The Buenos Ayres government is making vigorous exertions to meet the threatened danger. General Hord has been dispatched to the north to watch the enemy's rnovanionta, anti it was supposed that, seeing the impossibility, of avoiding w . ar, which would only be delayed until . Urquisa felt afromr enough to strike a blow, he would probably assume the ottenstv,. of Buenos Ayres almost unanimously sympathise with the jouc,.— Ayreans, and dislike Urquisa. The red ribbon, Rossi's old badge, had been revived by Urquisa, with a different motto, and at San Jose, his residence in Entre Rio and head quarters, military executions are said to be frequent. The business in imports during the month have been very brisk, and subsequent to the arrival of the packet a further rise in all kinds of raw produce had taken place. Exchange opened at 675. 6d. to 655. 9d., and 665.

THE WAR IN ITALY. THE VICTORY OF MAGENTA. This •great battle was fought on Saturday. The rival armies met on the bank of the Ticino, near the bridge of Magenta, which crosses the Ticino on the high road from - Novara to Milan, one of the two roads from -the latter city which met at • Vercelli. The other road from Milan passes through Mortaia and these are, the two great roads by which - it, would .t Novara the Austrian army, meditating rc naturally re-enter Lombardy. Both and Mortara the Austrians were in great strength, the number of troops in the former town being estimated at 50,000.. This force must, however, have left Novara on Wednesday, before General Niel's arrival, intending probably to re-cross the Ticino. The movement of the allied army seems, however, to have been too rapid to admit of this. So the Austrians either choose, or were compelled, to accept battle on the banks of the river, possibly at some disadvantage. The result was a speedy and utter defeat. The Daily News adds :—" Within seven days, the Allies have swept the Austrians from the free soil of Piedmont, which they had Wantonly invaded, and inflicted upon them a loss equal to a division of the invading army. The week that commenced with the double victory of the King of Sardinia, on the laaks of the Sesia, was closed by this grand triumph of the Allies on the banks of the Ticino." The Times says the great invading army is now become a flying multitude, more or less kept together by the habits of discipline ; but Milan is open—Pavia and Piacenza remain, like -Austria, uplands in a plain flooded by French . and Italian troops ; and there can be no cause for resistance on the western side of the great line of Austrian fortresses. PENCE NEGOCIATIONS The Daily News confirms the rumour ithat Prince Esterhazy is coming to England on an extra ordinary mission from the Austrian' Government.

The Inspecting Officers of the Railway Department of the Board of Trade, on certain railwq accidents which occurred last January and March, have just published the second part of their report. • From it we learn, that a - collision on the Great Western Railway, on the. 31st January, at the Hollingswood station of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham section of that line, -is traceable to the neglect of the com pany's servants, and the result was that the station master at Oakengates, and four servants employed at the site of the accident, were summarily cashiered. The danger of " self acting" points—so often denounced by tilt engineers to the Board of Trade --is in this case glaringly evident. It probable that these points, after use, had " st-7-" the main line, -and \i !d on to the down line, in- and the etrcumstance was rectior being left to the land 1 •cies of an over thire and York Crofton, on the 1 January 1 biz Prov i-ay of the tyre of the left leQ,_( mgine, when on the zradient of 1 in 200 lIDAY AT CONSTANTIN most brains appmf Lnd Mr ad full of 'em THE ALLIED CAMP. VERCELLI, May 31.—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 manner in which this magnificent army has been collected, provided with everything, protected against any possible attempt on the part of the enemy to disturb these prepara tions, 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 smiling, for this is due to the Erhperor himself ; it is he who keeps everything 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 Bros of the French army was echeloned from Voghera along the Po and to Alessandria, and from thence to Valenza and Casale, and to-day this mass, with the exception of the Guards, has passed the Sesia, and all this with Out confusion, without accident, and with so, 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 impres sion 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 prepara tions of departure from Alessandria contributed considerably 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 100,000 men and above 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 imaginatiorr intiSffeniain behind the reality. Now, you must know that all the - )nateriel and the largest part of all provisions has to come from. France the hundred thousands of tons of stores, baggage,. artillery, munitions, and p, undisturbed, for 1 would have retarded all ,here preparations in a frightful proportion. As, therefore, 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, as the French corps d'armee'e were echeloned along the line of the Po from Casteggio, Voghera, Castelnuovo, Sale, to; Bassiguano,. with Alessandria and Tortona as points d' appui, while the Piedmontese army occupied the line from Valenza to Casale, and, since the retreat of the Austrians, to Vercelli. The first point was to gain a passage across the Sesia, one of those broad swampy rivers which intersect 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 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 re ceived therefore the mission to effect a passage across the Sesia, which, as you know, was done with complete success more than a week ago. He established himself at Berge Vercelli, the first considerable place on the road to A bridge was immediately constructed, and thus a communi cation 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 Cassale to Borgo Vercelli, a little village a couple of miles beyond the river. Already another bridge had been constructed by the French en gineers 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 brih liant. Troops, which would have had five or six days hard marching, - were transported often in so many hours to the place of their destination. This had the additional advantage of relieving the passage of the others on the road, which would have been too much encumbered otherwise, and of saving a large mass of troops from the failure 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 gre atest part of them are soldiers of several years' standing ; by their age, mostly from 25 to 30. their free and elastic step, their thorough soldierlike bearing, you would recog nise them in a moment were it not for the mass of Crimean medals which you see sprinkled about in the different regiments. • By yesterday afternoon a considerable part of the. French troops destined to cross were on the left bank of the Sesia, and ever since then a stream has been pouring over the bridges. Infantry, cavalry, artillery, munition, stores, French and Sardinian ; pass in an inter- rupted line, except when ambulance waggons return from. the othor .iaa with 'the wounded—friends and foes —for them every one makes room. -smut is most striking, is the quiet and good humour which prevail in spite of the frequent delay and contretemps- which naturally occur under such circumstances. Yesterday, the 11th anniversary of the battle of Goito, when the Piedmontese effected so bril liant a passage across the Mincio, was chosen as the day for advancing. The Piedmontese had yesterday, too, the honour of beginning the forward move under the personal As you will have read in the bulletin, they took possession, after an obstinate resistance, of the three villages of Palestro, Casselino, andVinzaglio, all three in advance on the road to Mortara. Two cannons and about 300 prisoners and wounded were the trophies. The glory . is entirely due to the Piedmontese ; for, although con siderable masses of French troops had already crossed, they took no part in the action. The Piedmontese deserve it amply, for, according to all accounts, they fought with great bray*. The plan seems to have been combined with con. siderable skill, for the allies could have brought an over powering force against the 8.000 or 10,000 Austrians who occupied the three villages. It is in a great measure due to the nature of the ground, so favourable for the defendant, that the Austrians could oppose the resistance they did.

As to the East arope, not only were partitions and spoliations exCluded, but it was expressly notified to the Court of St. Petersburgh that the policy of France, as regards Turkey, remains, and must remain, unchanged; that it was now what it had' been in the Crimean war ; and that the alliance with England, in which that policy had been manifested, subsisted in all its force. The Daily News adds : The proposals of France were such as might be made to any government ready to acknowledge the fairness of the war which France, was preparing against Austria, and designed to prevent its extension. Accordingly, these were made to the English Government, before they were made to the. Government of Russia, and it was only when the English Government declined to accept them, that France, as a matter of defensive precaution, sought a limited and, conditional support in another quarter. lecesSity for impr Wi zan INDIA MAIL.
