Below we give the latest news
received by the Africa, from Liver
pool, on the 7th inst:
Advices to the morning of the 7th,
state that the Prussians continued
victorious, and had defeated the
Bavarians at Tambah, and occupied
the town. The conclusion of an
armistice was then considered i'm
possible. Public opinion in Prussia
and Italy is strongly averse to it, and
Napoleon had received no acceptance
of the proposition, and it was thought
not unlikely that Prussia would
dictate terms at Vienna.
Fhe battle of the 2d inst lasted
twelve hours, the Austrians maintain
ing their position obstinately for six
hours About three in the afternoon,
the Austrian position ut Bistritz was
carried by assault, after which they
were rapidly driven from other
positions. The whole Austrian army
was in full retreat in the evening.

Monte Suela and Caffaro, and they
are now occupied by Garibaldi.

La Psesse, the semi-official organ
of Paris, of July 7th, says King Victor
Emanuel has not at once acceded to
the armistice proposed through
France. He alleges as the reason
that he has to consult with his ally,
the King of Prussia. In consequence,
the italian Government has been
advised that it will have to cease i'm
mediately every act of hostility
against Venetia-it being French
territory. A French commission is
going at once to Venetia to assume
its government in the name Of the
Emperor.
Orders have been issued to the
French squadron on the Mediterra-
mean, Immediately to repair to
Venice and to hoist the French flag
instead of the Austrian upon all
fortified posts on the Venitian coast.
The cession of Venice to Franco is
complete and definite, and without
any other condition on the part of
Austria, except to withdraw the guns
and all munitions Of war found in
fortified places. Within forty-eight
hours the whole of Venetia will be
French territory, and it will depend
upon the good will of France either
to keep or part with it.
Further, La Presse says it is tho
sntentlon of Austria to continue the
war against Prussia if she perseveres
IN her pretensions as asserted in her
project of Federal reform communi-
