we have at length received correct infor-
nation from Tyroi. Before the war began,
Austrian agents overran that province to
organize the instruction which broke out
ere they heard of the hrst hostilitics. The
insurgents united in the neighborhood of In
spruek, marched ON the 18th April, against
the grand corps-de-guard, where the Col Ba-
ron Eietturt. had hastily assembled some de-
tachments OF infantry--that brave officer at
tackeo the insurgents and repulsed them.
but party OF them contrived to enter the
houses and fire from thence upon the troops
the Colonel Dietfurt. received four wounds.
OF which he died few days afterwards.
In consequence of similar movements, ma
infested in other points, the Austrian corps
! IN the neiglborhood, occupied the greater
part OF the German TyroleSe, but pressed
on all sides by the victorious troops OF the
allies; IT they do not wish to lay down their
arms, they have not moment to lose in ma
king retreat: one or other OF these events
must evidently take place, and we, therefore,
consider as Certain, the speedy return of the
lyroese, under the Bavarian dominion.

tne PeasaRtry have been seduced whilst the
inhabitants of lnspruck and other cities: as
well as the Italian Tyrolese, remain faithful
to government. Wemay judge fthe spirit
which animateS these robbers, by the single
iact, that their first expedition was to plum
der the houses of the Jews, who purchased
the plate of the suppressed converts. They
nave also assassinated several of the Bava-
ran working people. who were wholly with
out means of defence. Such are the briIli-
liant exploits OF the Austrians, which prove
that the! are worthy of being the allies of the
English.

victory WAS obtained, at Medcllin, on the 28th
March, Dy the tlrst corps or the army, COM
manced by the duke of Belluno, (Eictor)
over the enemy, under the command of gen.
Cuesta.
Ten thousand Spaniards were sabred
upon the spot, and 1000 made prisoners by
our light troops the rest saved themselves
as well as they could. All the artillery, IS
pieces, and six standards, have fallen into
our hands; between 10 and IL, 900 Spaniards
were left on the field of battle. The greater
part OF the staff of Cuesta and OF the supe-
rior officers, fell in this action the Spanish
general II. Francisco de Trias, was found
desperately wounded, and lying among the
slain.
The army of Cuesta and part of that os
hndalusia, are annihiated by this event.
Marshal Belluno Vietor bestows the high
est praise upon the generals and troops who
have fought under him.
Our loss, compared with that of the
enemy. would seem Incredible, and in the
whole affair, We lost but 500 men killed and
wounded cur advantage was owing to the
'mpetuosity Of our attacks, and the visor
with which theJ were sustained.
This victory secures the conquest of An
dainsia, which in very short time will bs
entirely occupied by our troops.
