In the battle of yesterday three Austrian Arch-
dukes were wounded. General Festetics, com-
mander of one of the Austrian oarps, lost a leg.
General Count Shun was shot in the head; and
Colonel Binder and another staff officer were killed.
Prince Lichtenstein and Prince Windischgratz were
taken prisoners.

The following details have been received here re-
lative to the battle between the Austrians and
Prussians near Sadowa :—" On the morning of the
3rd instant the Prussians attacked the Austrian
army, which was concentrated on the right bank of
the Elbe, between Koniggratz and Josephstadt.
Until 10 a.m. the engagement was favourable to
the Austrians ; but after that hour both the Aus-
trian wings were driven back by the Prussians.
The principal action took place between Sadowa
and Horzitz. The whole Saxon army, the corps of
General Gablenz, and the Bth Austrian army corps
were engaged. At 4 p.m. the Austrian left wing
was completely routed. The Archduke William
was wounded in the course of the battle."

BERLIN, JULT 4.
The Queen of Prussia has paid repeated visits to
the wounded who have arrived here. Great crowds
assembled several times to-day before the palace,
cheering and shouting in honour of the Prussian
victories gained in Bohemia. Her Majesty acknow-
ledged the compliment by frequently coming to the
balcony and bowing to the people. Intense enthu-
siasm prevails throughout the capital. Frederick
the Great's monument has been covered with laurel.
EISENACH, JULY 4.

The Bavarians have attacked the Prussian out-
posts near Barchfeld. On the Prussian aide one
man and two horses were killed. The Bavarians
left on the field one man killed, two officers and
two men severely wounded, and 50 muskets.

The semi-official Prorinzial Correepoodeit: of to-
day says :—" General Falkenstein will soon put a
stop to the advance of the South German troops,
and Frankfort must speedily recognise the dangers
of an attitude hostile to Prussia. As regards
Bavaria it is again frequently remarked that in
consequence of the recent attitude taken up by
that State, Prussia will be compelled, in case of
further complications, to direct her attention to
the future position of those Bavarian provinces
which were once closely connected with Prussia."
BERLIN, JeLl 4.

The semi-official Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung
publishes a telegram from Paris, stating that false
reports respecting the battles in Bohemia, emanat_
ing from an Austrian source, had been forwarded
to the Prussian ambassador in that city as official
documents. The Norddeutsche qualifies this pro-
ceeding as a disregard of European morality, in
order to mislead foreign countries, and advises the
South German League no longer to be led astray
by Austrian cabinet policy.

visit his friends—l descended yesterday morning
from I Cappucini, our cypress-girt eyrie above the

Lego di Garda, to Desenzano, where I found nearly
all the shops closed, and the inhabitants hourly
expecting a descent on the part of the Austrians.
Shortly before my arrival, a party of 25 Austrian
hussars had pushed a reconnaisance as far as
Riveltella—a small town in a commanding position
on the lake, and less than three miles from Desen-
zano. At Rivoltelia, taking a little too much of
their ease at their inn, the hussars surprised a
drinking party consisting of four of that most
select of corps—the Guides of Garibaldi. Under
the circumstances, being four against 25, the Guides
could, of course, offer no resistance, and were led
off prisoners, their Austrian captors, in an unac.
countable manner, neglecting to carry off the sabres
and revolvers of the Guides, which were recovered
later in the day.
At Desenzano, which was almost entirely cleared
of troops, the arrival of a stranger created no small
excitement, and the general impression, wher-
ever I passed, wan that I was an Austrian spy,
who had been arrested by my red-shirted com-
panion. No sooner, however, did we reach La
Vicina—a small country house just outaide Desen-
zano, belonging to the family of my companion—
than I soon forgot the unpleasantness of having
been taken for a spy in the warmth of the recep-
tion which I met with, and is the delightful quiet
of the place, which contrasted so pleasantly with
the bustle and noise of the camp. This quiet
made itself all the more felt, because we were
within sight of the tower of Solferino, and but
few miles from the advanced posts of the Austrians.
Returning homewards, or rather to our camp, 1,7
way of Lonato, I had a second opportunity of won-
dering at the astounding number of volunteers
who had been massed about the place. Every hill,
hillock, and dale—for the ground about Lonato
very undulating—was swarming with red shirts,
lending au exceedingly picturesque appearance to
the landscape. Of regulars there was hardly
soldier to be seen anywhere, and the Garibaldini
seemed very proud of having such an important
position entrusted to them.
In the evening, when I got back to I Cappucini
alter spending a long day under a hot sun in re-
connoitering the positions of the Garibaldini, I wr
horrified to discover that, instead of the night
rest to which I was looking forward, we shouh
have to march, no one knew whither, that same
night, and, it was whispered, probably find our-
selves under fire before the next day. Sure enougl
at about 10 p.m, .the cries to ipaCk

and be off, and by an hour after midnight the Cal.
pucini—probably the loveliest position on the Lago
di Carda—waa as deserted as usual.

While awaiting the arrival ofTsthe yokes of old
which were not forthcoming for the last tl
baggage waggons, I was a good deal enter
tained by watching what went on before in
Having been as yet but a few days actually on tl
march, it is very natural that a good deal of con-
fusion should still prevail at starting, and that
many things should occur which would be inex-
cusable in a regular army. Some time after the
main body of the regiment had marched off,
stragglers kept dropping in from every direction in
a hopeless search for their companies, and others
found sleeping under the trees were kicked up and
set a marching. Among the latest who turned up was
the doctor's assistant—a strung stupid fellow, who
carried the doctor's medicines and surgical instru-
ments on his back. To see the poor fellow stand-
ing in the full moonlight, in despair which way to
turn and to whom to address himself, was the most
comical sight in the world. At last the adjutant
of the regiment, who remained to superintend the
arrangements of the departure, shouted at him in
a loud voice, " Why didn't you follow the doctor,
who started an hour ago l Begone after him at
once. I should like to know of what use the doctor
is without you ; and still more, what the devil 13
the use of you without the doctor 1" Upon this
the poor fellow bolted, and was heard of no more.
Presently a couple of the regimental cooks made
their appearance, carrying barrels slung over their
shoulders on a bent stick, and prayed to be shown
which way to direct their steps. After this the
silence was broken by a most incongruous oath on
the part of the postman—for each volunteer regi-
ment has its separate letter-bag—addressed to the
men who were roping the baggage. " Pure
Madonna ! see how that rope is tied ; Operas
Madonna!"—the repetition of the oath, which
seems a singularly favourite one with the volun-
teers, being accompanied witk a deep sigh, when

GENERAL PEEL ON WARS AND BREECH-LOADERS.
—At a dinner which followed the Huntingdon Wool Fair,
held yesterday, General Peel, in replying for the toast of
"The Army, Navy, and Volunteers," said—lt is possible
that I may be called upon to tiU the position of Minister at
War—(cheers)—but I swore you most sincerely that
there is no man more anxious to maintain the peace of this
country than I. (Loud cheers.) I have one observation
further to make. I believe that a great deal of money has
been thrown salt were into the sea in gunnery experiments ;
but I believe those experiments have proved that the worst
breech-loader is better than the very best muzzleloader.
I say that this has been proved as 5 to 1, and that of late,
in the Austrian army. We have the best materials and
the best soldiers in the world, and I am among those who
desire that our soldiers should be anned with the best
weapons. (Cheers.) lam averse to war—

Still it were well
That kings should think withal,
When wealth and peace their land has blessed,

'Twere Dotter to sit still at rest

Than rise—perchance to fall.
(Loud and long-continued cheers.) lam convinced that
nothing can be so painful as these wars-- wars that can
end in nothing but the ruin of those engaged in them.
(Loud cheers.) _ _

On leaving " I Cappucini " we began marching
towards Lonato, in the neighbourhood of which
place it was thought by many that fighting would
have taken place to-day. However, whatever may
have been the original plan, it was suddenly
changed, for a little after dawn we encountered
Garibaldi in person, attended by his staff, making
in an open carriage for Salo, for which place we
received his orders to direct our march at once.
To see the general looking so well, and attended
by such an imposing following, in which an escort
of some 40 well-mounted guides was the most con-
spicuous feature, was in itself worth several nights'
rest, and cheered us all up wonderfully. As for
shouting and hurrahing, there was none of it, but
a good deal of quiet expression of feeling. In
the rear of the corUge followed Garibaldi's light
grey and second dark charger, while a servant
carried what was evidently the general's sword,
carefully wrapped up in paper.
For almost its entire length of 12 miles the road
from Lonato to Salo was this morning lined with
volunteers bound for the latter place, and the pre-
sence of an exceedingly well appointed ambulance
train confirmed my suspicions that some early
fighting is expected. A night disembarkation on
' the Austrian shore of the lake is spoken of, but it

EMPLOYMENT or WOMEN IN MlNES.—Consider-
able excitement has been caused in the North Monmouth-
shire mining districts by the fact that a single woman was
killed a few days since by an accident in one of the iron
mines of Mr. Crawshay Bailey, M.l'., at Nantyglo. The
employment of women in coal and iron mines i-, as every-
body must know, prohibited by act of parliament. At
the inquest which was held upon the body of this unfor-
tunate woman, who was 3.5 years of age, single, and enceinte,
Mr. Lionel Brough, her Majesty's inspector for the district,
was present, and from the evidence of the witnesses it ap-
peared that for some time there bad been rumours afloat
that women were working in the pit in question, but the
agents alleged that they never saw any women in the work-
iws, and strictly cautioned the sub-oontnictors against any
hdringement of the law. The deceased was employed by
a man named Lewis, who bad taken a contract, and, it
was supposed, employed female labour because of its
comparative cheapness. He had been cautioned, however,
against the practice, and it was not known that he had •
woman in his employ until the accident occurred. The
general ignorance existing in regard to the practice was
exp Lined by the fact that deceased adopted a roundabout
way of going to her work, by which she could reach it un-
observed by any of the miners. Mr. Brough said it was
clearly an infringement of the law, and a very serious one
too. He did not remember another such case occurring in
Lis district for 20 years before. He had received letters in-
timating that women were employed in this pit, and had
communicated these reports to the agents. He felt he was
bound, in the discharge of his duty to government and the
public, to forward the evidence to Sir George Grey and
await his instructions before commencing a prosecution
against the man who employed the woman, and connived
at her working in the mine. The woman herself, it would
seem, deceived the people with whom she lived by saying
that she worked in the open patches.
OUTBREAK OP CHOLERA IN THE WEST RIDING.—
Much alarm has been caused in Batley and Dewsbury,
West Yorkshire, on account of the occurrence of several
fatal cases of Asiatic cholera. On Tuesday a man named
Richard Thompson, living in Batley, was suddenly seized
with racking pains in the abdomen, and in a short time all
the symptoms of cholera presented themselves in a viru-
lent form. The surgeon who was sent for applied various
remedies, but without effect, and the unfortunate sufferer
expired at noon on the same day. The attack proved fatal
in under six hours. The deceased resided in a locality
notorious for its dirty, overcrowded hovels, and for the
number of filthy heaps which are allowed to accumulate in
the most exposed parts. The local authorities are aware of
the invasion of cholera in the town, but as yet no precau-
tionary measures have been taken. A few days ago a lady
in Dewsbury, whose dwelling stands in a neglected part al
the borough, fell sick, and grew rapidly worse. Her medi-
cal attendant soon discovered that she was suffering from

are entertained that this is but the precursor of cholera on
an extensive scale. There is reason to believe that the
latter disease has made further progress in the neigh-
bourhood than many Imagine ; but the strictest secretly is
maintained by the medial faculty in the hope of prevent-
ing a panic.
