THE ARMISTICE WITH FRANOR AND ROME. After the conclusion of the armistice between France and the republic of Rome, Garibaldi marched upon Palestrina, where the King of Naples had advanced with 15,000 men; he beat the King, who retired upon Valietri; he dislodged him from this point, made a stand in the Abruzzi, and then was obliged to return to Rome by order of the Triumvirate.

Soon the whole iine was engaged in the fire, and it lasted for four hours, when the King, secing that it was impossible to dislodge the Austrians from Pa- festro, pushed the bayonet into their entrenchments, while a regiment of Zouaves, sent by the Emperor Napoleon, overturned a battery and threw the artilerymen into the water.

But his companions reminded him that he owed himself to his country, and Garibaldi having confided to the carth the re- mains of his well beloved, reached Ravenna under & thousand disguises; then he came to Tuscany, and at last reached the Sardinian States, where we now find him again as a general of King Victor Emanuel. willing to put No doubt the present war is, so far, a splen- did campaign for the French army, but we know what it costs us, and it is a repeti- tion of the campaign of 1796. In fact, Bonaparte, after the battle of Mondovi, circu- lated the report that he had the intention of crossin the Po to Valentia, where the passage offered seri- ous difficulties. But while General Beauliew assem- bled his forces before Valencia, Bonaparte turned the left of the Austrian army, forced the Scrivia and the Staffara after a forced march of thirty-six hours, then established himself at the castle of San Gio- vani, crossing the river opposite Plaisance. STRATEGY OF THE ALLIES. If, then, Louis Napoleon has invented nothin; he bas not forgotten anything. Not being oblige to expose himself by passing the Po at Casale or Pavia, he protitted by the moment when Garibaldi was disturbing the rear of the enemy, to menace Stradella and Pavia; and while the enemy massed their troops to cover these two points, the Allies left the valley of Scrivia in great haste and passed the Ticino at another point. BRIDGES OVER THE TICINO. Tt was on the second of June, when a division of the Imperial guard was sent against Turbigo, where, not meeting any resistance, they threw three bridges over the Ticino. s THE ALLIES CROSSING. The bridges thus established, General McMahon appeared at Turbigo tw cross de river, and he found the village and the vicinity occupied in a manner to ensure to him the freo possession of the bridge. The General then caused the bridge to be crossed by the head of the column of the First di- vision; but at the moment when it advanced to inepect the ground, he suddenly perceived an Aus- trian column at about five hundred metres distant, which apparently was coming from BuffaloraTand marching towards Robecchetta, evidently with the intention of occupying that village.

RECONCILIATION OF VARIOUS INTELLIGENCE. ‘This is the way in which the contradictory news which daily reaches through all sources is to be explained, as well even as the incoherency of the reports. We have seen him from the first_organiz- ing his partisans behind the Lago Maggiore, in the ‘valley of the Sesia, abandoned of all the world, but in a position to under- take a war among the mountains, which the Austrians could not accept.

The Austrians, as we stated, were for a mo- ment in a state of stupor. But that momen passed, they engaged in a fusilade so terrible and so well directed that half of the black regiment we-e made to bite the dust. But the survivors, excited by a thirst for vengeance, jumped sbout and fought them with such bravery and impetuosity that the Austrians were soon obliged to cease their fire to commence the combat hand to to hand. That moment, it seems, was terrible. ‘The bayonet was no longer suflicient for the Alge ines to fight with, and they made use of their nails and teeth in endeavoring to strangle the Ans- trians. They were covered over and over with blood to the very eyes. It has been said that they devoured their adversaries. FEROCTIY OF THE TURCOS. OTHER VIEWS OF THE work.

This memorable battle also, which opened the ‘ates of Lombardy to the French, has been terrible. the battlefield was covered by dead and wounded, and then the retreat commenced, The Austrians, seeing themselves surrounded on all sides and cut up by the fire of the battalions, and the grape shot of at least fifty pieces of artil- lery, Which took them in flank in a terrible man- ner; the Austrians, we say, dispersed and aban- doned their arms, their baggage, their knapsacks, CORKECTNESS OF THE DETAILS. These details, whose exactness we guarantee, have been transmitted tous from the army by one one.of our friends—they are ail confidential, but they appeared to us interesting not to be revealed. On learning what was the object of such a calumny—for Victor Emanuel is of good faith and not false—the King struck his forehead and seemed to be waking from a dream. It was 80 much the more like truth that ke should be a traltor, we re- peat, for the Emperor Napoleon refased to permit the division Niel to 1 of Garibalat, ie] cross the Ticino to the succor Tt was then that in ef exalted uM in the exaltation of a sort of sage, ho wished, without thinking of his own per- and even their prisoners to the enemy; but General MeMohon said very little in his bulletin to explain the nature of the ground on which the engage- ment took place. THe KILLED AND WOUNDED, As nothing hes been inquired concerning the umber of killed and wounded on both cs, nobody knows anything about it, The fact is, the French fought with their ha- hitual intrepedity, and the Austrians resisted us bravely as at Montebello. Who will judge, after ‘ this, of the dreadful butchery which resulted from | the engagement of the two army corps, tighting al- most hand to band during several hours, and thea the pursuit of one by the other over a space of about two kilometres to the end of the course. MOVEMENTS FOR LePARING THK ORES, The day followivg, while General McMahon re- organized his corps d’armée according to the or- ders of the Major General of the staff, the Sar- dinian army also crossed the Ticino at a second point and the Imperial Guard, commanded by General Espinasse, on the other hand, advanced on the rond leading from Novara to Milan Bp to Trecate, where it menaced the head of the bridge of Buffalero. With this division the Emperor marched, surrounded by his staff. TRE AUSTRIANS CROSS THE BRIDGE. The Austrians, who still occupied the head of the bridge, which ig had constructed before Buf- faloro, naturally fell back, crossing the stone bridge which traverses the river, and pre- pared to blow it up. Unfortunately, the eflect of the mines was insufficient, and the two arches which should have been destroyed by the combination of the Austrian engineers were onl; defaced and shaken, but not destroyed. T wasa miracle. The crossing was not even inter- 1upted. rders were immediately given to the co: d@armée of General McMahon, reinforced the division of Voltigeurs of the Imperi Guard, and followed by the whole army of the King of Sardinia, to proceed to Turbigo, above Buffalora and Magenta, while the division of Grenadiers of the Imperial Guard re- paired to the head of the bridge of Buffalora on the left, and the corps d’armée of Marshal Canro- bert advanced to the right on the banks of the river, to cross the bridge at the same point. It was then that orders having,been given the division, Es- inasse ventured into Lombardy to take the route for Milan, ORDERS MISUNDERSTOOD. But it may be that the orders of the staff were misunderstood, or could not be executed so promptly as Marshal Vaillant calculated; or it may be that false reports prematurely announced the arrival of General McMahon, a fusilade against the Austrians, who occupied the high ground bor- dering on the Naviglio & great?canal) commenced, and the French troops, with their habitual ardor, threw the enemy out of their position, and went beyond the village to the point where a junction with the other corps should take place. GREAT FEAT OF ARMS. It was there that the most considerable poumae of arms which, perhaps, has occurred in Italy since the commencement of the war, took place, and this explains why we remained for nearly two days without receiving any news; it was because the Imperial Guard had escaped being crushed and the Emperor Napoleon made prisoner. McMahon did not arrive, Canrobert executed a difficult march from Novara, and doubted if he could have arrived in time at Buffalora, that no succor could be ex- pected from him. COUNT CLAM-GALLAS. General Gyulai had given ordera to Lieut. Field Marshal Count Clam-Gallas to hold the position of Magenta, and to wait for the division Reischach of the 7th corps, which came from Corbetta by forced marches, the division Sillia of Castelleta, the 3d army corps of Abbiate-Grasso, the 8th corps of Bi- nasco, and 9th corps, destined to act asa reserve, which were at Pavia, and to which orders were sent to march on to Magenta, HEROISM OF THE IMPERIAL GUARD. All these corps and brigades advanced from all directiona, semmanding straightway to cut off the retreat of the Imperial Guard, while tho division Reischach retook the bridge of Magenta, and while the Commander-in Chief proceeded to Robecco in order to advance the Third corps d'armée on the right flank of the enemy. In this moment the Im- perial Guard saw itself assailed on all sides; but it Toust be said, in order to be impartial, they resisted with a courage and a heroism above alleulogy. They felt nothing except that the for- tune of France was confided to them, and that the concentrated manceuvre of the Austrians could not have any other result but to close the war and make the Emperor a prisoner. From this moment, the dead were not counted. The thunder of the cannons and the lightning of the fusillade broke every line ; ie French brigades be- came greatly disordered, the cavalry became powerless; soon torrents of smoke enveloped the battle field in a manner that no man vould tell where he was, and that every one dreamed of death, bnt determined to die a3 gloriously as pos- eible. NAPOLEON'S COOLNESS IN BATTLE. It is said that the Emperor Napoleon, who sud- denly found himself for the first time engaged ina serious affair, observed extraordinary courage and coolness in the midst of his Guards. He saw his enerals fall without dismay—heaps of dead odies were piled up around him without his shuddering. This, perhaps, would be na- tural enough in such circumstances, and in his impassibility he had a little stubbornness. This butchery endured for four hours, when finally the brigade Picard, with Marshal Canrobert at the head, arrived on the battle field; at the same time the division of General McMahon eppeat, which had been delayed in its march in advancing in two columns on Magenta and Buffulora. A cry of triumph was raised among the French masses, and the enemy threw himself before the reinforcements in order to prevent a junction. TERRIFIC NATURE OF TH CONTEST. From that moment it is impossible to render an account of the combat which ensued at every point at once, with the same ardor, with the same cour- age. Every position was taken and retaken five or six times, and at nightfall Magenta was in the power of Geu. McMahon, who definitively seized the village—the key of the position—street by street, house by house, stepping over heaps of dead ae in the midst of the fire and the hail of bul- lets. M’MANON THK SAVIOUR OF NAPOLEON, It is now understood why General McMahon was nominated Marshal of France on the battle field and created Duc of Magenta, for the Emperor probably owes him his life, and France one of ita greatest victorics, DEATH OF GENERAL ESPINASSE. It is curious enough to recail here that the same day when General McMahon was thus covered with ory, he who was the only French Senator who had the courage to combat against the “ Law of Surety,” and to vote against its adoption—General Kspinasse —-who has presented and supported this law, met his death on the battle Geld. It is just to add that General Espinasse died bravely at the head of his division, and that he has paid early enough for the esine fault of his life, which will be forgotten wit him. The following morning the infantry regiment Duc of Hesse again attacked the bridge of Magenta to facilitate the retreat of the Aus- trians; but this was a powerless effort, and the unfortunate regiment lost one-third of its officers and soldiers either killed, wounded, or made prisoners. Nevertheless it went through the manceuvre to occupy the enemy in Magenta, so as to cover the retreat ef the Austrian army to Pavia and Lodi. DEAD AND WOUNDED. ,. The number of dead and wounded on both sides is, doubtless, exaggerated ; but to judge from the heat of the action and the number of chiefs hors de combat, one may say that 10,000 Austrians and as many French have died on the battle field, so many names to be inserted in the roll of human marti- rology. As soon as the Milanese had heard the result of the hattle, and while the Austrians evacuated the city, leaving behind their arms and munitions, the municipality presented ftself at the hoadquarters of the Allies and offered their submission to the King of Sardinia in the presence of the French Empe- ror, and he submitted the following address:— The Municipality of Milan is proud of beiog abie to make ‘use of ita most ES. privilege ia bolug the interpreter Of its feltow citizent ut this grave crisis.

It will be sufficient to say that the headquar- ters of the Austrians has been removed to Abbiate- Grasso, a place about two leagues distant from Vivegano, on the route from that city to Milan, on the Lombard territory, and that the Emperor Francis Joseph has established his own behind the line of the Mincio, at Verona—a very strong and important place, which will be found on the map which we publish, He arrived with an excessively large number of princes, among whom was the hereditary Grand Duke of Tuscany and his brother the Prince Charles. PRESENT POSITION OF THE ARMIES. The news from the seat of war in Italy, received by the Vanderbilt, which arrived at this port on Sunday, brings us intelligence from that quarter up to the 21st of June. No important action had then taken place between the main armies of the bel- ligerents, but they were taking up such positions as would render a terrible combat inevitable ina short time. Francis Joseph had placed himself at the head of his army and established his head- quarters at Villafranca, a point on the railroad line between Verona and Mantua, almost in the centre of the great strategic quadrangle. The French, under Louis Napo- leon, occupied Brescia, almost in a direct line west of Peschiera, the northwestern defence of the uadrangle, aud connected with it by the railroad fom Vienna to Milan; while Victor Kmanuel, with the main body of the Sardinian army, was near the little village of Castegnato, a few miles from Bres- cia, The allied forces then were concentrated in full strength at one point, while the main body of the enemy, with the Austrian Euiperor command- ing in person, were awaiting their attack in the very heart of their strongest defences. Ere. this, perchance, the shock of war has been felt be- tween the Mincio and Adige, and Austrian domi- nion in Lombardy may have received a fatal and a final blow. The Austrians also occupied a position in the Stelvio pass, where they were constructing en- trenchments and fortifying that post with artillery. Meantime a force of 3 men were advancing to dislodge them. Thus stood the war up to the 21st of June. The next steamer will probably bring intelligence of the most terrible battle of modery times, in which the three sovereigns of France, Sardinia and Aus- tria will doubtless French face to face upon the bloody field. Prince Rape meantime, was advancing with his army through Tuscany, and had reached Florence, while an attack on Venice by the French fleot was hourly anticipated. THE VERY LATEST NEWS. The second edition of the London Times, of Wed- nesday morning, June 22, contains the following, which comprises the very latest intelligence from the theatre of war:— Panis, June 22, 1859. The Monitcur of this morning contains the following des- patch :— Brescia, Jane 20, 1869. Tt is announced that the Austrians, wao in great force hed occupied strorg positions at Lopate, Castiglione and Montech‘aro, where they bad fortified themselves with caro by embatilemeniing the walls, cutting the bridges and constructing numerous batteries, have abandoned all these positions. Ihe Emperor has lft Breacia to day, in Order to sdvance, The following is the letter of the Paris corres: Paes of the London Times, dated June 21—6 ‘The next news from the theatre of the war is waited for with an impetionce which not free from ditquictada, There seems to be 6n instinctive feeling that u pattle on the Mincio, whether won or ist by the Freoch, will be followed up by the sppearance of some new actor on tha scene. Some who hitherto believed that tho Emporer Na- polecn ccult and would limit hostilities to I'aly, have changed their views, and unwililagly yivid to the convic- ton that if Prussia pursue the line she has eptored on no howan efforts Fre pe Mona the war from enveloping the wholo of continental Kurope. What muy be the secret wishes or hopes, or even fears, of the Emperor on thia Point, it is aiflcult to guees; bat that the final advantage is not intended to be teft to him may be divined by the ex- ultations of the revolutionary party, who, in spite of all he bas done towards tne liberation of Italy, clearly look to a state of geveral confusion for the realization of their own peculiar theories, A private despatch has been received from Bres- cia stating that the Austrians had again occupied Montechiaro, and this fact is calculated to contirm the anticipation that a great battle is at hand. The following letter has been received in Paris from Venice, dated June 14:— There was ® long popuiar manifestation here to.day.

Viexxa, June 19,1859, A letter addressed to an acquaintance of mine, an inhabitant of Vincenza, states that above one thou. sund wounded men are now lying in the hospitals of that city, and it must be concluded that he lias paid them a visit, as he remarka the officers and privates who are less severely red kill time by railing at Gyulai. This morning information was given me that the whole country up, to Graz in Styria, and Brixen in the Tyrol, is Tull of hospi- tals and infirmaries, to which the wounded and sick will be gradually removed. It was not until yester- day that we learned what became of the first and second corps d’armée after their retreat from Ma- genta during the night ofthe 4th inst. They reach- ed Milan on the beep of the 5th, and marched, | “without taking any re! Malegnano, to Lo THE FAMOUS AUSTRIAN QUADRANGLE, eshment there,” by way of {Translated from the Paris Pays, Juno 17, for the New Yor« Hxwatp ] Since the beginning of the war there have often been questions of that military position in which our enemy places so much confidence, and which, in fact, was of so great service to him in 1943 to resume the offensive. To enable our readers to judge for themselves, we will enter into some de- tails on that subject. The plain of Lomberdy is crossed in its full length by the Po, which evory one knows is a most important river. It rons at a distance of from 60 to 80 kilometres (15 to 20 leaguos) from the counterforts of the great chain of the Alps, which send their ramifications fur as the southern point of the great Italian lakes—Mag- giore, Como, Isouzo and Garda The Adda, the Oglio, the Mincio and the Adige are its principal confluents, on the Jeft border. The Adda runs out from the Lake of Como; its left bank is, in the whole run of that river, lower than the right bank, and does not, therefore, offer a good defence against an army advancing from Piedmont; that is, probably, the ‘reason that we have just learned that, as ia 1848, the heer has abandoned that line almost without fighting. It will be the same with what of the Oglio, which, issuing from the Lake Isonzo, runs almost in a paraliel line with the Adda; but, as it does not water any important place, and does not offer great obstacies to the passage of an army, it will probably not be de- Ponaed by our enemies, unless near its mouth in the Po, where it is crossed by the main road going from Pavia to Mantua, We are now arrived at the western side of the nadrangle, formed by the Mincio,and of which the Adige forms the eastern flank, while the rail- way from Milan to Verona bounds it at the north and the Po at the south, The four angles are occupied by the cities of Peschiera, Mantua, Leg- nano and Veronte A railroad leading from that ast named city to Mantua, forms the onal of the quadrangle. One perceives at a glance the importance of that position, situated at a point where, the Tyrolean Alps and the Po coming nearer to each other, the Jain of Lumbardy is so much contracted that it is ut forty kilometres (ten leagues) wide. An army wanting to advance towards the Adri- atic could not move by the right bank of the Po without being exposed to be cutin its line of ope- ration. The enemy oceupying the four cities, tant one from the other by at the most one or two days’ march, nay, at a given moment, concen- trate all his strength at the threatened points, and in his turn crush @ scattered enemy. Let us add, also, that the possession of Verona, at the debouche of the valley of the Adige, commands the communi- cations with Tyrol, as the road follows that valley, and the army may, although with some difficulty, obtain supplies through it. That is the favorable side of the medal; let us now examine the reverse, and for that it is necessary to euter into some de- tails about each of the four cities. Peschiera is a small fortress situated on an island formed by the Mincio at its issue from the Lake of Garda. At the time of the Venetian republic it was a simple pentagon, to which the French, while they oceupied the country, added three lunettes, forming akind of crown work without curtains round the co- nical hill called Mandela, which commands the left bank of the river. These have since been strength- ened by a covered way running along a natural ditch, by which they are protected. On the left bank of the Mincio there is moreover an extensive work, called the Salvi, covering the immediate ap- proaches to the river. Siace 1848 the Austrians iste extended the fortifications far beyond the island, and have crowned an adjoining eminence with eight lunnettes on the plan of those of the Mandelia. All these works together constitute an entrenched camp capable of receiving a considera- ble number of troops, and their chief importance lies in their threatening the flank of an army at- tempting to cross the Mincio near Goito or Valeg- gio. There is besides the flotilla of the Lake of Garda, which finds protection and coal magazines under the walls of Peschiera, and can throw troops across the lake in a very shorttime. Moreover there is a system of sluices by which the level of the lake may be considerably raised, so as to pro- duce, at a given moment, a vast impetus along the Mincio, sufficient to sweep away avy pontoon or trestle bridges thrown over it by the enemy. The town of Peschiora itselfis small, and contains not more than 4,000 inhabitants, who in case of attack will seek refuge in the extensive barracks, which have been rendered bomb proof, and capable of affording protection to the garrison during the bombardment. The fortress of Peschicra is fifteen miles from that of Verona, and both are connected by railway. Peschiera sustained a severe and lengthened bombardment by Charles Albert in 1848, and capitulated only through actual want of food. After the surrender it was found that the detached forts of Mandella and Salvi had been patel destroyed by the Piedmontese artillery, put the fortress itself remained quite uninjured, an contained a large quantity of ammunition, sufficient to have warranted a prolonged defence, if the pro- visions of the garrison had not become wholly ex- hausted. Should the fortress be captured by the Allies, the garrison will doubtless, if not completely invested, fall back upon Verona, or take the road leading to the southern Tyrol. Mantua lies, like Peschiera, on an island formed by the Mincio, much larger, however, than the for- mer, since it covers about 124 acres. Close to it there is another, called the Te, which is used as a Champ de Mars. Both lie in the midat of a lake formed by the widening of the river, and are about 850 yards from either bank. Hence, Mantua is un- approachable, except by five narrow causeways-— viz.: two on the left bank and three on the right. The fortifications of Mantua would be insignificant were it not for the protection afforded by the lake. This may, indeed, be tapped, as was done in the last century, but the only result was the formation of @ morass, emitting a most offensive stench, and more impassable by an army than the lake itself. The causeways are defended by three forts, the Citadel St. Sears to the east, and Pradella and Pietola to the left. The latter was built by Na- poleon I. Austria has added little to these fortifica- tions except a few mines. Mantua, though always considered the key of Italy, is too unhealthy and too far from the defiies of the Alps, wheuce reinforcements and provisions ust arrive, to stand alone; hence Verona has been selected as the great central depot of the army. The guns of the fortifications command the passage of the Mincio towards the southern extremity, and covered by them the Austrians may cross and re- cross without fear of any serious injury. Mantua is connected by railway with Verona and Peschiera and there are also good main roads to Verona and the fortress of Legnano. In 1795-6 Mantua sustain- ed asiege of eight months hy Napoleon I, and, like that of Peschiera in 1848 ( Aoaas only from absolute want of provisions. To prolong the de- fence all the horses in the place were slaughtered and the flesh doled out sparingly to the exiausted garrison. Verona is situated at the issue of the Adige from the Alpine passes, and has received most extensive fortifications, the cost of which amounted in 1343 to eighteen millions of florins, now swelled to at least twenty-five millions of florins. Such large sums, spent within that small compass, have con- tributed considerably to attach the Veronese to the Austrian rule; sv that here the Allies are not likely to meet with the sympathy of the popula- tion. Verona possesses 55,000 inhabitants, and can boast many valuable Roman antiquities, showing that it has at all times been considered an import- ant strategical point. The old Italian fortifications form the groundwork of the modern works. On the right bank of the Adige the old wall has been strengthened with eight bastions on the system of Carnot. The approach to the town on the river side is covered by Fort St. Proculo; a little further from the town is Fort Hess; but these works being inauf- ficent to harbor a large army an entrenched camp has been added on aualluvial plain abandoned by the waters of the Adige. This plain is surrounded with aseries of strong redoubts, at distances of about 600 yards from each other. Nearly all these redoubts are trapezoid, the jarger base being turn- ed towards the camp, and each redoubt is provided with bomb proof barracks. The length of this for- tified camp is three kilometres; it is two in breadth. On the left bank the oid walls, originally erected by the Emperor Gallienus, and at a much later RG iod repaired by the celebrated engineer San Nichele, have been strengthened with bastions. Port San Felice, consisting of a continued redan line crowning an inaccessible rock, an offshoot of the Tyrolese Alps, completely commands the town. ‘The approaches to this fortare defended by vari- ous tren If the Austrians are forced to retreat from that portion of the city on the right bank of the Adige, they will crose to the left, or eastern bank, and after destroying the bridges, renew the coni but, before this takes place, we may expect to hear of hard fought batties at St. Lucia, Villafranca, Val- legio, or on some portion of the ground west of the Adige. Should the Allies possess themselves of the suburbs and forts on the e part of the city, and succeed i ing the Adige south of Verona, in all probability, take up their position upon the famous recky ud almost impreg- nable heights of Caldiero and the opposite heights of Colognola, and there await the attack of the Al- ties, These heights and their position bear some comparison to those of the Alma, and, before the: are stormed and carried, the loss of human life will be something frightfal to contemplate. The posi- tion of Caldievo will no, doul& be strengthened at all points by bastions, entcenchmonts, p By and every conceivable means of defence, and from the Adige to the heights the ground will doubtless be disputed by the Austrians. Legnago is a small foxtress, a8.a link be- tween Mantua and Verona. Its great advantago is that it porses a double bridge head, wheuce sallies may be made on both banks of the A. Its pre- sent fortifications were crested by poleon I, ‘The town itaelf is sural, but the fortificntions are of considerable strengih, and, were, for the most part, built under the divection of the celebrated Sammi- chelli, This Austrian portion is rendered still more formidable frow the ease with which troops may be conveyed to the two great fortresses by railway from Vienna, Venice and the Tyrol. There is an almost wabroken line of railway from Vienna to Verona, with a branch to Mantua, and a rajlwa: from frient (South Tyrol) to Verona, by whith trogps from Innsprack and Botaen may he carried ta the centre of operations. Frou all that we have just stated, we can draw the following conclusion; that {wo of the four for tresses of the quadrangle, Peaghn’' and Legnano, cannot offer a very serious resistans.? to our uieans of attack; the third, Mantua, has once before been taken by our troops under less ‘avorawle ciroum- stances, and the fourth, Verona, however strong it is, is not worth Sebastopol, and the wiater of Lum- bardy is not so rigorous as that of the Chersonese pevipsula. Then we: have always for us the for- Tose of France at the service of a just and holy cause, and, moreover, the unequalled valor of our army, commanded by the worthy heir of the genius and the glory of Napoleon 1. OUR NATIONAL ANNIVERSARY THE WAY IT WAS CELEBRATED. THE METROPOLIS 08 THE FOURTH TAMMANY SOCIETY CELEBRATION, CORPORATION REGATTA. Pyrotechnic Displays, Exeursions, Balloon Ascensions, Aquaties, Dinners, Cacualties, Police News, ho, &., Tho eighty-third avniversary of our national iadopem- dence was celebrated m this city on Monday, the 4th inst. with more than usual eclas, Weeks before this event teok place the children of this glorious Union, from Maine te California, were looking forward with food anticipstions for the time to arrive whou they m'ght unite in celebrating the anniversary of their nation’s birtbday. Not only was the event held in expectancy by the children, bat by the sage and the statesman, who felt that we owe a profound debt of gratitude to the Ruier of all things, when we con- trast the disturbed political condition of Europs and the glorious peaco aud harmony existing throughout the length ‘and breadth ofour land. Tho consequomce was that the civic and military organizations and corporate bodies of the different cities of the United Siates, and especially those of our own city, put forth all their euergles to cele- brate the oocasion in a patriotic manager, At midnight om the 24, the wind blowed a ga!o from the nortaweat, and the vault of heaven was overspread with dense bisck clouds, and the thermometer fell to seventy degrees, with everything betokeniag unpicasaut weather for the Fourth. As the morning approached the wind veered around to the westward, and just be‘ore daylight the sky was more cloar and the prospect for a fair day was quite flattering. At daylight the aky was clear, with quite a fresh breeze blowing. At sunriao the ushering in of the “glorious Fourth” was announced by salutes from the Navy Yard, Fort Columbus, and also from the Battery by the Veteran Corps of 1812, who re paired thither under the escort of the Washington Conti- mental Guard, Second company, Capt. Lansing, simulta neously with the raising of the American ensigu on the flag staffs and ringing of the church bel!s throughout the city. Early in the forenoon the shipping in the harbor was decked with flegs and bunting, with such profusion ‘that it could be easily discerned by a strangor to our customs that a great day was being celobrated. Some of tho vessels wore bedecked with strivgs of colors reaching from the tips of the Dying jibboom to the royaimast beads, and from there to the end of the#panker booms. The British veascls, without au exception, were thus dressed; sud it was gratifying to msay to witnoss tho Amoricam Casign entwined with the flag of St.George, The hotels, public buildings, bell towers and many private dwellings had the American ensign flowing to tho breeze, The eariy railroad trains from this city carried thousands of our oiti- wens away to enjoy themselves in tho country, and, vice verea, thousands of suburbans came to this city to spend the day, A} noon the city presented quite a busy scone; the atreets, parks and public places ware perambulated by an immense throng, making every demonstration of joy on the occasion. The City Hall park was fairly crowded from early in the morning until late at night; and the refreshment booths and sight showers in proximity to it reaped financial harvests. It would be impossible te make any approximate calculation of the number ef strangers who came to this city on this occasion; bat Suffice it to aay that the streets wore crowded. In Broad- way tho hydrants were opeped and dippers furnished, se that podostrians could slake their thirst. They were quite extensively patronized, but as the day was not unusually warm the real benefit was not so woll appreciated as it would have been under other circumstances. THE MILITARY DISPLAY. The parade of the First Division New York Stato Militia, Brigadier General Wm. Hall commanding, was the most Attractive part of the day’s proceedings in » military point of view. Major Geacral Sandford did notcommand, on ae- count of the recent death of his son, Col. Chas. Sandford, who died at Caracas a few months since. The Division line was formed in Fourtcen'h atreet, right resting om Broadway, at eight o’clock A.M., when they wero review- ed by General Hail and staff, accompanied by the Washing- ton Grey Troop (Eighth'Regiment), who acted as an escort. Tho review was quite imposiog, and was witreased by a large concourse of people of both sexes and all ages. After the review the division was formed in column by companies nud was marched down Broadway. The ateges and other vehicles were turned oif Broadway by the police, and an uninterrupted view was afforded to the spoctstors om the etreet, at the windows, aiid on the hotel balconies and tho stoops and doorways of the stores, to witaecss the troops. Brondway was perfectly dry and closn, which enabled the troops to march with ease and precision. The route of march was down Eroadway, around the lower end of the Park to the east gate, where the head of the column halted. In tne Park, acd on the balcony of the City Hall and oa the steps of the samo, wero gathered a pleasaut look- ing throng. The police arrangements under Captains Dowling, Leonard and Weed were of the most oom- plete character, keeping, as they did, the parade ground clear through which the military passed, besides presery- sing the best of order. Shortly after the head of the mili- (ary column reached tho Park, the Ma;or, accompanied by Mvjor General Sandford—the latter in citizen’s dress—Po- lice Commissioner Bailoy, General Superintendent of Po- lice Pillsbury, Captain Manofleld Lovell, Assistant Adju- tant General under General Quitinan; Colonel Cocks, Captain Bunce, and a number of tho members of the Commons Council, received a marching salute from the troops, - The latter passed in the following order:— Washington Greys Troop, Captain J.
