The Great Battle.
SERIOUS LOSSES BY THE FRENCH.

By the telegraph, additional to what
we published Saturday, we have the in
telligence that the great battle near Milan
was fought urder the Emperor Napoleon
on one side, and Gen. Hess on the Aus
TRAN side. Gen. Espinasse, of the End
corps d'armee was killed, and Marshall
Canrobcrt, a brave French officer, was
italy wounded. Gen. Mcmahon had
been Great ed Marshall and Duke de Ma
genta, for his marked bravery N the con
hict. 1t was rumored in Pari. that the
French loss was from 10000 to $4,000
although the Emperor in his dispatches
to the Empress, estimates the loss of his
own army at ouly 1000.
The Austrians lost four Generals and
five staff officers. Over $50, 900 Austri
ans, and over 10000 French, are said
to have been engaged in the battle. The
Austr ian accounts DENY the victory of
the French at Magenta, and it was be-
lieved according to later accounts, that
proposals of peace would follow the en-
trance of the French army into Milan =
Nevertheless tie city of Paris was iumi-
mated, in honor of what they claim as a
French victory.
Queen Victoria, in her opening speech
to the Parliament proclaimed that a
strict and impartial neutrality would be
preserved on the part of that country
1t is not positively certain yet, how the
great battle has terminated, but the prob
abilities are in favor of the French. Ma
poleon has been preparingfo it for some
time, and designed to make it his great
action of the campaign, 1t was evident
ly a desperately fought battle, and if Ma
poleon did come off victorious, it will be
the death blow to the Austrians, and
peace will be obtained on almost any
terms. Fall details will be awaited with
the deepest interest.
LATER.-By the telegraph of this af-
ternoon, it will be seen that the Austri-
ans taken prisoners are 1000, ard the
Musicians placed hors du combat are 20,
900. French loss about 5000 killed and
wounded. The Austrians left their can
non and treasures behind, in evacuatng
Milan. The Austrians accounts say the
combat was undecided. The battle first
commenced on the fourth and continued
on the fifth at Magenta. The Emperor
was present at the battle, but did not
command in person.-Milwaujsee Vas

Mar. Greeley RS IL Traveller.

The Boston Correspondent travell-
ing with Mr.. Greeley across the plains
has the following:
An admirable travelling companion is
Mr.. Greeley, with an inexhaustiblo fund
of humorous experience and inirthful
anecdote, a philosophy that neither frets
nor grumblcs at annoyances and an al
ways ben snant coun.enaacc, radiant
with clear consciencc,a sound digestion,
and abundance. of tho milk of human
kindness. Occasionally, when crossing
rivulets on foot, he sinks in mire to his
knees, but maintains bis serenity undis-
turbed. In amusing the marvellous little
Ida" he sha,nes her mother altogether,
in the use of "babv talk" and other seduc
tive arts to captivate infant affections. To
day we met party of returning Ohio
eni:grants, who had m;red their wagon
in a slough, from which their weary cat
tie were unable to extricate it. He gave
n few common sense directions about US
ing the spade, and then took hold of the
lever and pred at tho wheel with vast
deal of vim. Meanwhile, one of the en-
igrants, having learned something of his
profession asked;
"W That New York paper are you con-
nected with, sir!'
"The Tribune"
"0h, yes; your with old Greeley, are
you?'
eyes, sir, was the dry reply, the editor
meanwhile Juggling away like an Irish
laborer. Just as the wheel was extricat-
cd, some one came along who recognized
the cd white coat, and made its owner
known to the crowd. l think never
saw men more amazed.
Almost every train we meet contains
some one who recognizes him, and the
emgraots flock around and scrutnize him
as if lie were the seventh wonder of the
world. But yesterday, on the outskirts
of crowd, rather stolid looking man
asked of me.
"Stranger, is that John Greeley, those
fellows are talking so much about?'

The Chicago Journal thus well and
truly states the doctrines Of the Repub-
lican party on some OF the principal points
of national interest:
All men endowed with the better i'm
pulses of hnmauity, who think before
they act and act from conviction, III
matters of American politics, must sym
pathize with the doctrines upon winch
the Republican party of the Oh position Is
founded. They aie the doctrines OF en-
lightened patriotism, of honorable and
right government Hof comprehensive,
tolerant, ana liberal policy. While it IN
sists upon the restriction Of Slavery. 1t
scorns to invade It's domain or to disturb
its legal rights. While it strennously OPP
poses the extension of slavery into the Free
Territories of the Union, and denies It's
title to the fostering and monopoizlng
care of the Federal Government, 1T new
ertheiess is willing to let the States in
which it is established by law, keep it as
long as they want it. State Rights IN
its true meaning, is emphatically Re-
publican doctrine; but we believe that
the Slave States have no more rights
guaranteed to them than have the Free
States. All states stand on an equality,
in the light Of the Constitution, and a !
with their respective interests and insti-
tutions, are equally entitled to the Impair
tial care and faithful guardianship of the
Federal Government. This is the Repub-
lican doctrine, as regards the states, as
we understand it, aud such would be its
practical policy if it were in power at
Washington. It's Territorial policy is
well understood, its doctrine beng that
inasmuch as Slavery is the creature of
State law, it can have no legal existence
| beyond the limits of the State or States
in which it is established and protected
by special law-and, consequently, can
have no legal existence in the Territories,
where no such special State law exists.
And as the Republican party respects
the equality of the States, so does it re-
spect the equality of all citizens of the
United States All citizens are equally
entitled to the protection of the Federal
Government and the laws, and to enjoy
equally the rights, privileges and blessings
Of our Institutions. A misguided faction
aided by miscllevous enemy, in one
New England State, may prescribe GER
tain class Of citizeus on account of the ac-
c;dcnt of birth, but such principle, SO
unjust, unreasonable and arbitrary, can
never be sanctioned by any considerable
portion of the Republican party of the
Nation, as those Of its opponents who
pretend to believe otherwise, well know.

@ ssSoME things can be done as
well as Others" This, we take it, is one
of those sententious sayings in which the
wisdom of the world is chrystalized, and
the truth of which is indisputable. "a
mong those things which can be done is
the not publishing of paper.
1t is popular idea among publishers
and editors, that paper must be pub
lisbed every week. We have demonstra-
ted the fallacy of this idea. The jour
NAL has not been published for two
weeks, and yet we have no doubt our
subscribers are as healthy and happy as
ever, and we are more So.
1t may be proper to state why we have
taken this respite from editorial labols.
First: we have published a paper
through ''hard times" for two years, and
we felt S we presume sensible horse
does after drawing a large load up long
hill-like taking breath.
Second; we wished to make some i'm
provemeDts in our Office. and also to 90
fishing. Now it was certainly wise to
make our office as commodious as posi-
bic, and fishing, when conducted on cor
rect principles is Legitimate AMI paying
business. -e.
THIRD; we publish country paper,
and claim a right to the freedom of coun-
try life. 1t is not to be expected that our
neighbors who publish city papers could
claim the privilege which We, living in
the country enjoy.
Hoping that this explanation will be
satisfactory, we now resume our labors,
and trnst that honceforth the course of
the JOURNAL will be like that ola good
mans life-eyenly and on.

The N. Y. lady correspondent of the
Springfield Republican, speaking Of the
violent de ath of FANNY DEANE, the ac-
tress, says
We may cease grooming over the sins
of Paris-over the unfortunates who rush
into deaths arms through the muddy wa
tiers Of the Seine-ovcr the tragedies Of
any other city, or nation we have
enough to think of at home If New
York would reveal half the hideous Sc
crets which she carries in her heart, we
should start back aghast, and never find
time again to think of Ito mysteries of
Paris More, if the smallest village in
our land would lay bare the story of its
inner life, we should find martyrs and
tragedies, ty Thousands of hearth stones,
where new we dream that love and cou-
tent are the lares who make their warmth
and brightness. Every day, we are hurt
with the horrid story of domestic crime;
and the heart of every true woman, who
loves her race. who honors herself, bleeds
over the hourly repeated story of dis
crowned and despoiled womanhood.

young man-whose prospects for fortune
were once flattering, but who is pow rap
idly becoming devotee of the Glowing

morously quoted:
"And when think of what ar,
And what l use to was,
finds I've thrown myself away.
Without sufficient caIse."
He laughed at the lines heartily, poor
follow, and thought them very nusing.
His laugh to us, however, sounded like
the tolling of a funeral bell, for we tho't

of the { ir. meek face grown so sadly
pale, from the lack of that warmth which
