LONDON, MONDAY, MAY 3D.

WIIII4T the French Earlan Sad VICTOR
Eats %BUIL or. waiting to eemplete their prepare-
tiome—it is said that the Artillery and Cavalry are
still deficient—the famous GARIBALDI has made •
daring snd successful inroad into Lombardy. With •
body of volunteers, numbering some say 4,000 and
others 10,000 men, many of them scions of the
noblest houses of Naples, Bologna, Modeos, Parma,
and Milan--eelected moreover out of a crowd of can.
didatea for service, and organised by GARIBALDI
himself, that singular man, without artillery or
cavalry. has crossed the Ticino where it issues from
the Logo Maggiore—penetrated to Varese, half-way
to Como, and on Friday bet, after a straggle of five
hours with the Austrians, entered Como, amid the
acclamations of the people. According to the latest
accounts another action had been fought at Camerlata,
about two malice south of Como, in which the Italians
were again victorious; and the Austrians were falling
back in the direction of Milan. There is no denying
the brilliancy of these exploits or the serious effects
which they may have upon the campaign. In fact,
if the accounts are to be believed, GARIBALDI is
within 30 miles of Milan—the people in the Alpine
valleys behind are in revolt. The road from the
westward, by which supplies and reinforcements can
be reci.i‘ed, is open to the Allies; and thus the
Austrians may lied their flank threatened by
30,000 or 40,000 men, whilet their front is at-
tacked by the mw of the allied army, if
it can manage to pass the Ticino. It is
difficult to believe that the Austrian. will not
make • vigorous effort to crush GARIBALDI'S force
before he has been sufficiently reinforced, or before
he has had time to fortify his position. But sine*
the country behind him is in his favour, and the
Lake or Como practically in his hands, it will be
almost impossible for the Austrians to cut off his
supplies. To attempt to anticipate the movements
of • man like GARIBALDI would be idle. But it is
important to cote the vigour and success of hi.
movernerot, and the advantages of the position which
he now occupies.

It is singular that almost every war brings to
light some military genius. No sooner were the
Allies encamped before Sebaatopol than TOM-Ellen
proved his abilities as an engineer ; and the Indian
Revolt drew forth men who till that hoar were
never suspected of any extraordinary powers-
G ‘kIFIALDT, however, is only continuing the same
career far which he has all his life been famous.
Foe more thee twenty years he has been du-
tingaiislied both as • soldier and a sailor.
Having thoroughly studied the theory of his pro-
fession both is France and Italy, he took service first
with the hey of TUNII4 and then in South America.
He has commanded both ov see and land. In 1818 he
reunited to Nice, and took part in the Italian cam-
paign. But perhaps the most distinguished part
which be has played won in the defence of Rome.
For a whole month he kept the French army at bay,
and, indeed. the French marshal himself did ample
justice to the energy and skill of his oppooent.
When the city was Nicer, he refused to surrender,
but made hie way to Genoa with 200 of hie followers,
and soon returned to America. There he abandoned
for a time his warlike pursuit, and betook himself
to commerce. About 1832 he seaweed the command
of the Peruvian army, bat when his services were no
longer required be remitted to Nice.
The story is told that be was at one time in corn-
mead of a collier mooing between this country and
some foreign port' also again, that for some years
be lived in retirement with him sons on a small island
where be farmed extensively. la short, he has /el-
bowed all punnets arid men much of the world.
With • thorough knowledge of men and • passion
tee adeirature, he a•dertakes enterprises which to
lest men would seem impossible. In him sagacious
prudence and the most daring courage an perfectly
econsbiased. He does all that im possible—he has never
yet attempted more than he could perform.
Of course bits character has been assailed, sad
his volunteer band stigmatised ea a diseederly
rabble. But those who bare known him—and many
Engiieh naval office re have had the privilege—de-
et ribe him as "an excellent fellow" and • chivalrous
gentleman. Hie vigorous advance, and his perfect
success hitherto, conclusively show that his troops
are something far beyond • mere rabble. Austrian
writers may represent them a• railer. and /ass-
tmecks, soldiers of the wallet and the cord, but the
truth is that there is no regiment in the service of
the Allies subject to stricter discipline, or air
lected with more scrupulous care. 'Those who have
saes 0 MIR aid and watched hts career will readily
understand bow this must be so. Handsome, and
with an Use frame, his noble and expressive cons-
istences prove him to be what he is—not a common
brigand—but • patriot leader.

BENEATH the look of indomitable pride and the
air of profound confidence in the destiny of empire
which Austria wears, there lurk% a sense of danger
nearer home than any that threatens on the banks
of the l'o, or off the shores of the Adriat'e. Those
who know best the real state of feeling that peeved,e
among the governing caste at Vienna concur in
saying that whenever the name of Hungary ie
mentioned is connexion with the pending struggle
in Italy, a cloud moms to creep unbidden
over the haughtiest brow, and a chill to spread over'
the satieipatiosr of the most sanguine. The ides of
a second Magyar revolt within ten years after the
fir.t wss quenched in blood, is of course not a thing
to be audibly suggested, fit lam to be admitted ea a
