They bave opcrated with & epoed, decision, boldness, sccuracy and foresight beyond all praise. It will iuterest your readers it T bricfly sketch the course of the campaign to the present date. On the A4th of June the Gerwan C deration was broken up; on the 15th the Prussian tr00ps were everywhere in mo- tion—especially on the frontiers of Bohemin. If you look at the mapof Northern Prussia, you will ind that a tougue of Bohemia stretching into the provinee of Silesia, leaving the fortitied town of Gratz on the right,aud reaching on toward Schweiduitz, another Prussiin fortress. Of this district Braunau is the principal place, It is now supposed toat Field Marshal Benedek's original plan was to pene- trate Silesia from Braunau,and to aim in the first instance ot Breslau. Nor could he have taken'a beiter course—if bo bad taken time by the forelock; but these sud ifs ar always 1n some people’s way. As in many other cases. 8o in this, the Austrians have been tooslow. 7o the right from Braunau lay the srmy of the Crown Prince of Prus- [ #ia, with its headquarlers first in Neisse aud afterward in Fiirstenstein. To the left, at a considerable distance, lay the Ay of Prince Frederick Charles, with its headqu tors st (G0rlita. Obviously Benedek's course was to 1 rapidly iu between the two, first to attack the Crown Prince aud open Silesia; and then to prepare for Privco Frederick Charlos. But be did not do so; and what wus worse for him, the Prussians did, most boldly and rapidly, pome wiscacres said, quite eguinst all the rules of war, on the 15th of June, nce marching from threa dirce- tions into Bohemia.

In Vienna people @amcterized the Prussian adsance contemptuously as @ ppedike speed; but such contempt recoils on its ¢ nors.

But they were at onco greeted from windows and all availuble openings with & murderous’ fire, and compelled to retire.

LA Mivax, Jaly 9, 1866, Cialdini has crossed the Po wiih his whole army. The mbardwent of Borgoforts was probably a cover for this wovement which appears to have encountered no oppo- sition. However, as it is not likcly that 100,000 men could cross the Po anywhere without attracting atten- tion, it is roasonably certain that tho Austrians per. mittad tho erossing for strategic or diplomatic reasons, 1 incline 10 the opinion that both classes of motives influ- ence the enemy. Public opinion has pronounced with singulur uvanimity against the propositions of Austria, and the journals are singularly clear in their language. But the journals do not reach the clamorous tone of in- diznation which the people employ.

In this military lull everybody has been pretty soundly abused. ‘Ihe royal family, Garibaldi sud Claldini t the only exceptions. painful to see a brave and magnanimons ple, iy to pour out its blood like water for national inde- endence, made the sport of diplomatic gamesters.

Ths Ia:t proof of the siogular nature of the military mind is that the correspondents of the news- papers are Buspected of having be‘rayed the secrets of the genorals to the enemy.
