The following is the proclamation addressed by
RADBTZKY to the inhabitants of Lombardy :
" Inhabitants of Lombardy,—I have arrived on the
territory of Lombardy, at the head of my valiant and
victorious army, for the purpose of delivering you from
a tyrannic and revolutionary domination. Yielding to
perfidiousinsinuations, many among you have forgotten
your duties to your legitimate Sovereign. Return to
your duties of subjects under the protecting sceptre of
the Emperor and King. I tender you my hand for a
sincere reconciliation. Lombardy, listen to my bene-
volent advice, receive with confidence my valiant troops.
They will guarantee to the peaceable citizens the com-
plete safety of their persons and properties; but the
laws of war will be applied in all their severity to those
who, in the wild delirium of rebellion, would shut their
ears to my exhortations. You have the choice. For
me it is a duty to keep my word exactly.
"RAI)ETZKY, Field-Marshal.
" Valeggio,' July 27, 1848."

RADETZIir was on the 4th under the wails of Milan.
CHARLES ALBERT, who had taken a position at Lodi
on the 2d, with the intention of defending the line of
the Adda, evacuated it on the 3d, on the approach of
the Austrians, and fell back upon Milan, for the
purpose of covering that city. He arrived there on
the 4th, and encamped in that neighbourhood.
Before quitting Lodi the KING had detached the
division of General SOMMARIVA to Placenzia, on the
south side of the Po, to check the progress of the
division of the Austrian army which is operating upon
that bank. General Sommaaivn has orders to
strenkthen his division with the detachments of
Piedmontese which occupy the duchies of Parma and
Modena, as well as the reinforcements sent from
Genoa by way of Bobbio, and from Piedmont by way
of Tortona and Voghera. If he should find himself
attacked by superior forces at Placenzia, he will be
able to execute his retreat on the fortress of Tortona,
which covers the fr mtiers of Piedmont.
On the 3d the Provisional Government of Milan
declared the city in a state of siege, and made every
preparation for an obstinate defence. Barricades are
erected, and they have expressed a determination to
defend the city house by house.
The English Chargé d'Affaires at Turin, accom-
panied by the Frencti Charge Affaires, visited the
camp of CHARLES ALBERT on the Ist, from whence
they proceeded to the head quarters of RADETZILY,
to offer the mediation of their respective Govern-
ments.
It was reported in Paris yesterday that a telegra-
phic dispatch had been received announcing the'evacu-
ation of Lombardy by CHARLES ALBERT, who had
retired with his army into his own states.
General COLLEGNE, Minister of War, made, on
the 4th instant, the following speech in the Chamber
of Deputies of Turin
Gentlemen Deputies,—There was a time when it
was thought prudent, that whatever concerned a war
should remain mysterious and impenetrable, in order
that the enemy should not know on what side the danger
would fall on him. But when a nation is determined to
employ all the means of defence she can command, mys-
tery is useless. Let then our enemies know that the
Italian nation is prepared to incur all sacrifices for the
defence of her independence, and those who have the
supreme direction of the councils of the nation are in
duty bound to acquaint her with the energetic action
given to the general movement. The Ministry, whose
first duty is to preside over the general armament, must
inform the Chamber and the country of all that they
have done."
The Chamber, before adjourning (to the sth of
September), voted that 150,000 copies of the Gene-
ral's speech should be printed and distributed.
The Risorginzento of Turin, of the 4th, has the
following :
" Mr. E. Abercrombie has returned from the camp.
We have advices from Milan of yesterday, the 3d. The
Milanese aro determined to resist to the last, above all,
g, the King is preparing to sustain them with his army; ,

Milan will be defended by an entrenched camp at some
distance from the town, and a part of the troops are
already encamped on the site. His Majesty arrived yes
terday morning at the gates of the city, coming from
Melagnano, and has taken up his quarters at San
Giorgio, outside the Roman gate. From the other
places where our army is the news is satisfactory."
