The POsTTIoy OF THE HOSTILE ARMIES
The Paris correspondent of the New York
Commercial AdrH6ssr, writes on MAY 3lst {:
IL will be perceived that the allied army
Is advancing upon and surrounding the CAPT
tai of Lombardv in the form OF "A horseshoe.
The Austrians are in the hollow ofthe cnrv-
ell line, with both the wings Of their army
Outhanked by the allies. This position g<Ses
the latter an immense advantage, but the
principal blow, unless the Austrians should
retreat, must be struck by the two Monarchs
on the centre, somewhere in the neighbor-
hood Of Mortara and Novara. II is eudent-
~ here that the Austrians are to be found in
large numbers.
