tire armies at 10 n. m. yesterday. Our left,
under General Winpfen, advanced ns far rs

trated assault on the heroically defended town
of Solferino. Our right wing repulsed the
| Piedmontese, but on the other hand the order
of our centre could not be restored. and our
losses are extraordinarily hea.J. The devel.
opment of powerful masses Of the enemy
