published yesterday
movements of the

emng, announced certain
Austrians from gtradella towards

Voghera. Nothing new has been irablished to-day

The weather continues rainy.

According to some•of the last accounts from Pied-

mont, the rivers had again overflowed the country,
and military operations were completely suspended.

The Austrians were concentrating, with a view of
fortifying their line ,of,the Ticino and Po.
The Times adverts to the complete preparations
that Prussia is making for entering as a principal
into the contest, and points to the remarkable
declaration of the Prince Regent on closing the
Session on Saturday. The inference is, that it will
be very difficult for Germany to prolong the policy
of neutrality.

The Herald elaborately defends the Government.
The dictatorship of the King of Sardinia differs
essentially from an independent popular government,
and what has taken place breaks into the treaties of
1815. Great caution is required.
TURIN, May 11. —The Austrians are evidently

shifting their quarters.; and with the cool audacity
of ignorance our wiseacres here pretend that they

have suffered so severely from the rains and inunda-
tions, that they are hurrying back across the Ticino,
lest the French or Piedmontese should fall upon
their scattered and disorganised army. Ido not see
there is the slightest ground for entertaining this
idea. The French and Piedmontese suffered also very
severely from the rains, as the crowded state of the
camp hospitals testify but too clearly, and the ground
which has been unfitted by the inundations for the
operations of the Austrians, cannot be much bet-
ter adapted for those of the French or Sardinians.
This flooding of a country cuts both ways. If the
Sardinians had not swamped the rice grounds to
impede the advance of the Austrians, the Austrians
supposing them to have adopted the same extraor-
dinary tactics, would have cut the dykes themselves
to prevent the advance of the combined forces. More-
over, in artillery and cavalry, there appears every
reason to suppose that they are much stronger than
their opponents. What both the belligerents can be
about is the theme of much unprofitable speculation.
The object of the Austrians would appear to be,
iif all we hear be true, the somewhat vindictive one
of inflicting at all hazards a terrible blow upon
Piedmont by ravaging the crops, rooting up the
mulberry trees, destroying the silkworms, which
from so large a share of the national wealth, besides
levying black mail up to within a very short distance
of the entrenchments behind which the Piedmontese
and the Frenchmen of General Niel are wondering
why they are not allowed to move on. If such was
really their object, it cannot be denied they have
completely succeeded.
