Austrian Retreat.
From Our Own Couespondeutl
MILAN, July 9Th, 1866.
After ten days Of inaction which have
seemed d century to our impatient people, and
after a complete breakdown of Austrian
pride in Germany, our army Is asain in mo-
ton. Claldlni crossed the Po yesterday with
out difficulty, aud If the Austrians are dis
posed to fight my longer there will probably
be hot work to-day. It is hlghly probable
that the Archduke Is already half way to
Vierua with half Of his army; but we have
here DO means Of knowing immediately. Tie
journals inform us that the mediation Of
France has been accepted by both France and
Italy but that the armistice will not be ae-
cepted until Its terms ore stated with preci-
sion. In other words VIC shall fight with one
hand md treat for peace with the other.
There appears to be some surprise that the
italian cities were not Illuminated at the news
Of the Austrian proposition. The London
1unes Will doubtless read US one Of Its cns-
tomasy lectures On the lolly OF being senti-
mental; out we cannot forget that We mare
won the respect Of Europe and commanded
assent to the 1ust1ceot our claims by devotion
to the sentiment OF national honor, dignity
and independence. When Austria cedes
Venice to us rs Of right ours, or ours by con-
quest from her--wtthout the payment Of
money to her or brokerage to Napoleon-wc
shall hare good time with our banners and
our flluminat1ons. Everybody In Paris and
London seems to have been drunk On the nth
and otly balt-sobered OIL on the sixth. l
ought perhaps to except Gisardin, who cyen
on the hsth saw and stated the difficulties OF
the Austrian proposition. We mere have some
practical sense-too mueh to get drunk before

the details must be arranged before We let
