The Austrians are advancing. it is said, in great
numbers. They have done nothing in Aroma beyond
breaking the telegraphic wires. l was assured the
party which had creased the Maggiore were no more
than three hundred Another large column has oc-
cnpied Novara, and is advancing upon vercelli
Nothing is said about the greatest mass which IL sup
posed to be directing its towards Aessandria.
There was general report this morning that
skrm,sh had taken place at the advanced post at
Cassoo, opposite to Abbate. e.grssso. It has been

A young Piedmontese officer, Captain Coli. has
drawn the first blood from the enemy by sabre cut
across the Austrian commanding officers face. It
was sort Of chivarous encounter between those two
however, for both detachments retired.
The French are pouring in both from the Alps to
Turin, and from Genoa to Alessandria.
Ii the Austrans have but 100 0O0 men on the field
as we are told, no doubt the Sardinians (or
Italo Franchi as they are here caed) are not infe
rior in numbers. The Austrians have, however, un-
mean to attack both Vercei and Casale on one side
the Montferrat hills, and Novi and Aessandria on the
other side Ny opinion is that the occupation Of No
vara is but fen and that the real attack will be
made upon the fortresses Austria will thus take the
bull by the horns but it was very evident that she
could neither advance upon Turin without exposing
her flank to her foes at Casae, nor yet attack Novi
without running the risk Of attack from Alessan-
dria. Nov is, besides, within reach of constant "a
! pld and almost unlimited succor from Genoa.
1 On the whole, l have not met a human soul here
evlncng any uneasness or apprehension with respect
to the coming struggle The Sandman army, already
well disposed has been raised to the highest pitch of
enthusiasm by the sight Of the first French troops.
Unquestionably. there will be great emulation be-
tween two nations which look akin outwardy far
more than they similar in nature or disposition
The rapid marching in Of the French forces has al

A very different sensation has been excited by the

shall say late-English Cabinet, seems to me very
evident from the fact that Austria sends 5000 men to
strengthen her garrison at Ancona. To what purpose
should Austria, who is utterly helpless by send
her and which lies about 200 miles far from the cen

Movements of the French,

The movements and relative positions of the allied
armies Of independence must necessarily be KEEP

trust in Mcmahon, Canrobert, Random, Valiant ant
La Marmora Some young officers, particularly Bour
haki, are believed by the troops, who watched hin
topmost of the whole staff in hardhood and wist
daring. General Bruat, who led the first division ove
Mount Gems, is total loss. His death at the top 0
the Alps was simply owing to his not adding to mucl
laws regulating animal life Heated with the worl
of climbing the nights of glory and marshaling thu
the vanguard, he would gulf down glass of snow
water and fell as if stricken by shot. He was forty
