Bilis (May 27) correspondence of Manchester Guardian. } Ag soon ee the news of the brilliant victories won oa Wednesday and Thursday last by Garibaldi, at Vareze, reached Turin, I hastened to take the ratiroad, in order to arrive in this city by twelve o'clock. Herelam; and] am therefore able to send you some interesting details wbout the double defeat sustained by our enemy. 1 was on Monday evening that Garibaldi’s Chaseeurs of ‘he Alps arrived at Varese, aNer a prodigions march of Swe days. A proclamation was iemed by the General, Mviting the whole of the Vareaotto province to rise againet their oppressors. The appeal was generally lis- femed to, and men of every age and condition hastened 40 the official residence of Marquis V ercinary commissioner sent by se the coadjutor of the Italian General ther two hours the whole of country wae in arms. Old men, cl women, came to the Town Hall, bar aoe ready to help the small band 999) Wwrethren. Varese was f0on fortiled, barri>ades means of defence carefully ordered. Bande of ts ‘were pouring into the town from the numberless hamlete, villas and villages which deck the picturesque hilis of that Beaotiful country—the finest ia Lombardy, aud, perhaps, 9f Europe. Garidaldi, who is always to be found everywhere when @anger is coming, began to array in companice the new somers, and gave the necessary orders for the defence of fe country, as he supposed the Austrians posted at Gal- Imratve would attack him on the next day. He was not deceived in his expectation, for on Wednes- @ay morning, at dawn, 300 Croats and 130 bueears, with a field battery, marched from Gallarate to Sesto Calende, where the a/tyanced of our cbesseurs was posted. This advanced guard was com. manded by Captaid Decristoforis, a young man of great military ability, who only two months ago waa in Sogiand and kept a first rate military school at Putney. Afvera ight which lasted two hours the enemy was com pletely defeated, leaving some prisoners !n our hands. The Austrians were obliged to retire oo Somma, and mothing wat heard of them till next mor ing at four Welock. This second attack was of a more eerioxs cha- vacter. It was e‘l cted by a brigade 5,000 etrong, with ten eld pieces and two squadrons of Uhians. Afver a fret @acharge of their muskets, the Italian voluntears aceau!- ted the enemy with the bayonet, and with so mach im- petuozity tbat the Austrian centre was obliged to fall ‘ack on its left wing, already engaged bya battalion of our right wing. Now the fight became gene tre- mendous hand to hand fight, in which every inch of greund was bravely disputed by both armies. ‘The qmemy’s artillery was of no more use, because Garibaldi, | teving none, had ordered his men to fight haud to baad with swords and bayonets, At the report of the musketry and artillery the country | = ge) hastened to the scene of action with pitchforxe, ‘kes and cleavers. ‘It was a dreadful scene of Sisughter,” said an eye witness to me, ‘which lasted Shree hours.’ Nothing can give an idea of the impstu eeity of those Italians, who could at last revenge 80 many ‘wrongs, 80 many cruelties.

The Emperor of Austria, Francis Joseph, who is now at the head of his formidable army in Italy, is etill in ths prime of life, and young enough to be tne gon of his im- perial antagonist—the one being fifty-one years of age, the other born Avgust 18, 1830, not yet twenty-nine years f age. me father, the Archduke Francis Charles, brother of the late Emperor Ferdinand—the good hearted—wag, and 8, generally regarded as a aortof idiot, Weak of mint and health, he never played any political rdle in Austria, and was completely ruled by his wife, the famous Arch- duchess Sophia, a Princess of Bavaria, a sister of the Queeus of Prussia and Saxony, and of the late King Lud- wig, the renowned patron of arts, of Jesuits, and of Lola Montez. The people of Vienna, iaclined, as all non- migratory people sre, to simall talk about high persone, know and tell, although in private circles, many goa dalous stories about the family life of this pious, moet Catuolic prineéss, We will not repeat them, because the peculiarities of the mother should have nothing to do with the life and character of the eon, the sketch of which we are about to give to our readers. One etory, regarding the Emperor himself, we may be allowed to relate. When the young Archduke, the present Ewpcror Francis Joeeph, was born, # Vienna wit baptist the baby with the name “das arme Wasel,” which ia the Viensa dialect bas a double signitication, meaning ‘a poor fatherless child,” and at the same time, “little son of Wasa'’—baving reference to the Prince Gusiay Wasa, the sou of the pretendent of the royal crowa of Sweden, and at that time colonel of & regiment at Vienna, and Conmber- \s.o of the Emperor Ferdinand.” Much credit need not be given to thie wcandalous story, not beck te of too high an idea of the virtue of the impe- ria! mother, but rather by some reason, which we could reason. If you look on the young the same front, the same beautifal eyer, ant even the same eiple of moving and walking, ae in the F Wasa, but there ie one eign stamped on the face cf Francis Joreph which proves him a real’ Hapsburg- Lotheriuges, that is, the big underlip, the race tucson lip, the wignatura Hoyeburgenris, a history calls it; and it ie difficult to believe that such a historical lip, at the ma- Ngnant Vienna Court lad.ce and chambermaids will make you believe, could merely be the effect of the peculiar atmorphere in the imperial ‘‘Burg,”’ and of the permanon «king on of the numberless big lipped portraits which ¢ walle of all imperial private an’ state roome. ig aeide thie lip, the young Emperor is 2 decidedly me msn, full 6f manly grace, a really gallant homme Joon, am excellent rider on horseback, and the dancer at the private and court balls He there- been, cince his youth, the pet of all ladies, who r him and the banished Archduke Stephen as the most hasdeome, the mos! ver and the most agreeable we of the twenty-eeven Hapsburgien Archdukes. -e presumptive beir of tbe imperial throne—Empe- ror Ferdizand being childless, and his father being a real “nobody"—be got, as may be euppored, an ot education. General Hausiab, and the chief mander of artillery, General Augustia, were his «ry inetructors. It may be worthy of remaric, these two highly talented men, to whom ths ation of the imperial child was entrusted, were both cant, Hauslad being the son of a tailor, and a privateer, who deseried in 1809 the Austrian ranks, went to England and was employed as commoa workman in the arsenal at Woolwich, where he learned by smartness and clever management the fabrication of the Congreve rocket. Offering the communication and introduc- tion of this important invention to Prince Metternich, be got his grace, and after having fully succeeded in the manufac- ture of the mysterious rockets in the arsenal at Vienna snd a military establishment at Weiner Neustadt, he was eppointed captain of artiliery. He was the man who gave to the Austrian artillery the eugeriority which every military man, even on the side of the enemies of A must acknowledge. In natural bistory, and in the practical sciences, as cs, chemistry, national economy, the young prince had @ teacher equally renowned as hie militery instruct ‘This wee Professor Baumgarten, the same savant who was the tutor and instructor of the unbappy Duke of Reich- stadt, the child-king of Rome, crowned in the cradle, died and buried at Schoubrun, the son ¢f Napoleon I., whom jal documents now-a-days call, and perhaps history call, Napoleon I]. Under euch leadere we are en- tied to euppose that a young man of even medicere nts ought to make good progress, and must have ob. tained & more than ordinary good education. But Francis Joeeph war and ‘2 really more than a commonly talented man, The writer of thie sketch, living before 1848 at Vienna, had gevera) times the opportunity to speak to General Hausiab abort hig young pupil, and was re- peatedly assured by this gentleman tbat he (General Bauslad) had never seen a boy of such quick conceptions quick learning as the young Archduke. sh gentleman, a Mr. Thorn, Wwe remem>er rightly, who gave him lessons in the English language, Wis equally astonished about his great talent for learning and epeaking foreign languages.

Since that time he lived in the stye of what we would call in Now York a fast young MeN. Therefore, in the letters written by his nephews, the 8008 0 Archduke Rainer, intercepted and published by the revwationary government at Milag, io 1889, he ig called by tle nickname of “The Precocious Boy.” Mile.

The Vienna people can tell hundreds of stories about the amoure of thelr young Emperor; one will tell you About the dark eyed, handsome Bohemian prima donna, Theresa Schwartz, the Alboni of Vienua, who en- chanted the young Exoperor in hi in “Lucretia Bor. os” eo mech tt ded the Imperial throne, he did notchange this style of | wore for one kigg | gxhevetio them cn | of the raviswante Romeo; ancther tells you the romance siaooe® | goct the Forester’s Marie, woo, to see the Fm no practical rewcliq ) oy arranged the grest and britliant bunting partios j intne forests of Styria; = third ome relates the rather somewhat scandalous story about the ‘‘Segar Marianne,” for whom he fixed up & seger store in the entrance of the imperial Burg, to have, as he said jocosely, ‘‘the consola- tion of her beauty in the neighborhood of hig workehops.’” Of course, all officers bought their segars at Marianse’r,, aud the poor girl gotrict im some months, ‘There is a romantic story about the two daughter.¢ o° the banker and lottery ticket merchant, Perisut’,|—the beautiful elsters, Juliette and Mariette.

Toe Austriane, especially the people of Vienna, do nod look on such things #0 seriously a8 the people of England and America would do, Om the contrary, they liked and joved the gay young Haaperor the better for it.

The Emperor himself bas impetuous a character to be guided by a womaa, or to be governed by & man who ig much inferior to bim in knowledge and talents. The events of 1848 car him to ascend the throne much scouer than was expected, inasmuch as taey were the prigcipal cause of the addi uncle, in favor of his only brother, the Archduke Charis, who, on the sane day, passed the crown to big eldest on, the present Emperor. Hungary, not veing willing to recognise the young monerch, was cornet’ a a republic under the Presidency of Kossuth. The vic of Novara, gained by Radetzixy on the 14th of April, 1849, pat an end to the war againgt Sardinia, and the Aucirisng were then able to convey all their forces to Husgar; In tbe moath of May of the same year the "3 Francie Joseph removed to the theatre of war, and aseist- ed at the taxing of Kaab on the 28th of June.

The policy of the monarch at home was cen- ati on. In the Exstern war the Enperor manifesied his aympa- pathies in favor of the ca’ defended, concluding with the Western Powers the treaty of the 24 December, 1854.

THE AUSTRIAN. ARMY IN PIEDM [Correspondence of the London Times.) AUETRIAN HEADQUARTERS, Gariasco, May 25, 1859. The French still delay any general offensive movement, @ good deal to the surprige of many persons. They are, however, quite right to do so until they are prepared, and have accumulated considerabie stores at Allessandris, Tortona, or gome other central position. On Sunday, the 22d, as I informed you in my last letter, the Piedmontese crossed the Sesia near Vercalli, and were driven back. On Monday the French sent a strong party across the Sesia near Caniia, ob ably with the two-fold intention of reconnoitering and of alarming the Austrians. It retired after a short engagement. The patrols have now ¢aily skirmishes, and officers here are becoming very un- easy at the reckiessness of the Hungarian Hussars, who despise their enemies, the Piedmontese, a great deal too much, About foriy hussare were caught buthing in the Sesia the other day by a Pisdmontese patrol, aud taken pritonerg. If the Turin newspapers assert that the Ans- trians wear no clothes, you will kaow how to explain the statement. All here are waiting with great interest for the French account of the affair at Montebello on the 20%h, and aati- cipate an acknowledgment of immense losses, a3 the. A 18. trians, who had but 9,000 men actually engaged, had ed, wonnded and miseing fo.ty-three oilivers 4 1,252 men, of whom eleven officers and 233 men were killed, The allies, having had nearly three times the force ac- tually engage), must have lost more, particularly 23 the Austrian artillery did great execution. I mentioned in my last that Genera! D’Urban was blamed for too great ardor, having pushed on too far and to fast. It was this impatiesce whica brougot the smal! body unsupported in face of 2 euperior force. Count 3ta- dion’s orders were that D'Urban ehould move with two brigades by the mein road from Stradella on Custaggiv, clearing the mountains on his left by parties of Jagers; Lieut. Gen. Baumga: was to operate with the prigvie of General Bils rgainst Casatisma,a@ small town on the plain tothe north of the road, and with Gen. Gaal’s bri- gade against Robecco,a village close to Casitigma; and the Prince of Hesee’s brigade was to move through Verrva on Branduzzo to eecure the rr flank. So far all wae done ag directed. Count ‘lion, how- ever, wished a delay to take place when the’ troops bad proceeded go fur, as to enable them to advance fimultazeous!y at twelve o'clock, but General D'Urban, beving taken Casteggio by 11 o’clock, followed np the enemy with only two brigades, drove him beyond Montedelio, and actually occupied Genestretlo, a village: #till further westward, He wag #00n jobiged w retire on Montebello, and, before Gaal’s brigade arrived to support him, hat euflered severely. One email battaiion, tho Third Jag atone lost 8 officers and 148 men, of whom \wo officers and 61 men were killed. The three brigades heid toeir ground for several hours, freeh #rensh troops arriving ail the time oy railway, and dally with- drew in gocd order, iu the face of a greatly superior force. Lieutenant Prokesch, of the artillery, 1s much praiged for the mancer im which, with’ two guns, he held the mein road for a jong time. He waited till the enemy’s column came within about forty yards, then fired, and cleared the road, loaded again and waited; again the enemy came on, and again, he mowed them down, until dead and wounded barricaded the road, He hag been recommendad for the Cross of the Order of Maria Cherega, a reward not lightly bestowed. Count Phua is also mentioned as having dia- played great coolness in receiving a charge of cavairy, forming his battalion of infantry (07 the Hess Regiment) into a square, and almost destroying the cavalry by a well directed fire of musketry. Several conflicts took place with the bayonet, but the Jagers preferred using the butt- ends of their rifles, with which they did great execution, The moral eflect of this engagement has been excellent; all now fecl confident that whatever men can do these troope will do. Thoge who think the Austrian troops ere dispirited, or that any of them are wavering in their allegiance, are Much mistaken. Nothing can exceed the sp rits of all, and the common enemy has caused all internat dis ikes to cease, at all events for the moment. One battallion jivouacks in the equare of this town. Theae men Ihave observed attentively, and, for the instruction of those who think the Austrian troops bar- bariang, I will teil you how they pase their evenings, About five o’clook they all crowd round the band, which ig led by Farbach, the well known Vieunese composer, and take the greatest delight in listening to the music. During the intervals of the instramental music Parties of twenty or thirty of these so-calied savages sing in a man ner wi I bave not yet had the pleasure to hear equal- led in France or England, fyrolege songs follow Vien- nese, and then sometimes the band strixes up some Han- Brian tune, and in an instant a space is cleared, and every Hungtrian in the crowd joins in a dance’: or Farbach gives one of this exquisité waltzes, and a hua. dred Germans seize the opportunity of enjoying their favorite dance. Hairy fellows, in thick shoes and great coats, are their only available Partnere to be seen; but still it is very piea- sant to sce these men amusing themselves in go refined a manner. I have even seen onc man, mounted on a chair, reciting poetry toan attentive crowd. The Ttalians stare atallthie. Their behaviour is yery uncertain on all o3- casiong. leven saw one inhospitable keeper the other dey. Count Gyulai has thought it pradent to order them all to be disarmed, because one Hussar was murdered in Voghera, and on the 20ta some laborers, or men dressed agsuch, engaged in the fight at Montebello. General Zobel reports from the right that patrols have been seen areesed as countrymen, suppored to dea part of Garibaldi’s corps. Ae these might enter singly evea the headqnar. ters here, you will see how absolutely necessary it is to forbid all but soldiers to carry arms.

The writer of the official bulletin out tha: affair was therefore mistaken in gu: pporing that the French did not reply to the Austrian fire. By-the- way, if twenty or thirty consecutive bulletins contain simular mistakes, people will not place much faith in em.
