The news from Italy is very important and
sustained in such manner that it is here re-
celved as true, beyond any reasonable doubt. Ac-

Italians and Austrans, in which the former, &C

nothing is said of the number killed and wounded
We had before been informed of the sortie of the
Austrians from Verona, and of their march upon
Vlllafranca in the night, amidst thunder storm,
by which they captured that village and commit
ted some devastatlons; and that afterwards and
after the retreat of some small bodies of the Italian
forces, more considerable force attacked the
Austrlans, and with very considerable success.
Subsequently battle took place between Costo-
see and Sornma Campana, under the command
of General Baval, on the part of the Italians who
was sent to cut oil the retreat of the Ausrians to
Verona, who, the day before, had advanced and
attacked the frontiers of Rivoll, and attempted the
passage of the Minclo. This counter attack on the
part OF the Italians appears to have been quite sue
cessful, in which they made 600 prisoners, and
captured one cannon. This information comes to
us under date of the 9th of July. an official
form. But under date of the 26th. from Milan, and
the 2Sh from Switzer and, we have received the
news of the grand battle before referred to. which
is also confirmed by the private correspondence in

probable. The last correspondent says the bulletin
