THE AUSTRIAN ACCOUNT OF THE BATTLE
OF MoNTEBELLo-Pacia, May 2l.-The
French having been seen to the east of Vogue
IA, it became necessary to find out in what
strength they were. Accordingly, yesterday
morning a body of about 10000 men, under
Count Stallion, were sent across the Po by a
bridge at NacarizZa, few miles from this, just
below the junction of the Ticino and the Pc,
with orders to push ON until they found the
enemy in force, to obige him to show his
strength, and then Immediately to retire. At
about noon Count Stadion reached Casteggio,
which he found occupied, and prepared for
defence, and he did not take it till after a hard
fight Beyond Casteggio the enemy had Sc

village of Nlontebelo in his center. Count
Stadion attacked Immediately, and in about
half an hour obtained possession of the heights,
losing, however, many officers and men in
storming some farm-houses, which were most

From the heights of Monticello the Aus
trians beheld novelty in The art of war. Train
after train arrived by railway from Voghera,
each train disgOrging its hundreds of armed
men, and Immediately fastening back for
more. In vain Count Sadion endeavored to
crush the force in front OF him before 1t could
be increased enough to overpower him. The
battle was kept up witheut any decisive result
