Reports of deserters are unanimous in stating that 40,000 men were collected at Poztolengo. Marshal Bara- guay d’Hilliers met with unexpected difficulties at Solferino, und the Piedmontese reconnaissance also encountered great | forees of the enemy. Whilst Baraguay d’Hilliers performed prodigics of valour at Solferino, the masses of the enemy continued to advance, At Castiglione the Emperor,’ per- | Ceiving that he was now contending with the entire army of the enemy, deployed the corpsof General Nicl and McMahon in the plain, an@ ordered Canrobert to rejoin with the Im- |perial Guard the reserve on the heights. The King had | been requested (o direct all the forces possible against Sol- iferino, and he aceordingly ordered Ceverals Fanti and | Durando to convey suceours to the French. General Fanti had already commanded the moyément to be made when

hews arrived that the reconnaissances of the 3d and 5th!

divisions were in danger of being cut off at Disenzano by a Superior force of the enemy. .The King recalled Fanti and | ordered the brigade Aosta to return promptly to San Martino.

However, Baraguay d’Hilliers won Solferino, and marched against Cavriana. The King having been informed that, | hotwithstanding the 3d and 5th divisions were engaged, it

was difficult to carry the heights of San Martino, ordered a general attack of those divisions with the brigade Aosta, the

lst division, under General della. Marmora and the Brigade ide Piedmont. In spite of a violeat tempest General deila | Marmora directed his course by Poazolengo, and descended }upon San Martino, but was attacked from the side of Pozzo- |lengo. The 4th Regiment moving to the left repulsed the enemy, causing great losses with our artillery. In spite of | General Durando’s delay, occasioned by the tempest, and by | the ignorance of the guides, the 3d and-5th divisions and the brigade Aosta, dislodged the cnemy from his formidable positions, and a brilliant victory ended a contest of fifteen hours, sustained with heroic constancy.

was the result-—-as bloody. and as desperate as any |

the whole Austrian line, five ‘leagues in length, had beeu forced by the French and Sardinians, who had captured many cannon, flags, and prisoners. It concluded wiih stat- ing that the battle lasted from four in the morning till eight ia the evening.

Toe affair was terribly disastrous to the Austrians, and has impressed the French with the belief that they are cap- able of beating their antagonists whenever they meet. In fact, the Austrians confessed the defeat in their first cfficial i1mmouncement.
