You'd the AIDA is, perhaps, more than any
other part Of Lombardy, iniersectcd by road,
connecting the many considerable towns an
villages which lie on this line eastward. This
facilitated the advance considerably, for, being
close to the Austrians, il was always necessary
to keep well together. The Austrians retired

railway was left nnininred, and the telegraph
only so little damaged that almost all along

its establishment. / need not say, that, as

coil OF its enormous body rolls forward in I'M
interrupted succession, until it suddenly stops.
The prey must be near. for it entwines it's coils
as close as its massive mobility admits, as if
preparing for the spring. This is Just at this
moment the attitude. The mass Of the body

the head stretched out, as if to measure the
distance. 1t is the concentration Of strength
and energy, before employing it. The greatest
part of the army is collected within a com.

A council Of war is he'd to-day to determine
