further interesting details of the battle of Monebe
10, received from Paris and Vienna, from which it
appears that Marshal Baraguay D Hilliers debarked
his division from the Mediterranean squadron at
Genoa and formed the extreme right wing of the
allied army near Voghera.
The details of the battle show that the loss on both
sides was very severe.
Brigadier General Buret, the French Commandant
at Duchet is among the killed.
Venice correspondent of the London Times says
that the Austrian strength engaged at the battle of
Montebelo was three brigades, and that their loss
was about the same as that of the French.
The Times correspondentsays the Austrians fought
well, for they were obliged to carry the town of
Casteggio before they could reach Montebelo, and
severe struggle must have occurred at that point.
The Ausrians at first seemed to be successful, and
were only driven back when the French supports
rived. General Forey estimates the Austrian forces
at from 10000 to $4,000 men, though the captured
prisoners estimate it much larger.
Great praise is awarded the Sardinans for th cir
gaantry during the battle, the combat being hand
to hand fight in the streets of the village.
The Austrians occupied the houses, and defended
themselves with the greatest tenacy firing from the
| roofs and the windows and the Sardinians showed
the greatest bravery in their desperate charges, car
rying house after house, and driving the Austrians
| before them with great slaughter.
