Count Guyalaj the commander-in-chief of
the army of Italy, reports that his loss at
the battle of Montebello was 290 killed 118
wounded, 200 last and missing.
Gen. Guyalia says that the French force
engaged in the battle amounted to 40,000,
but says nothing about the Austrian force
engaged.
Some French authorities say that the
French Force actually engaged was not
much over 4000.
Other authorities state that the number
of the French and Sardinians engaged in
the battle was 12,000, which is the highest
estimate from any impartial source.
Advices from Turin announce that a pop-
ular movement had again taken place in
the Dutchy of Parma.
The victory of Montebello and the suc-
cess of Garibaldi at Como, together with
the arrival of Prince Napoleon at Leghorn
had aroused the national enthusiasm to the
highest pitch, and the expulsion of the Duch-
ess Louisa Maria was anticipated.
The popular feeling is strongly *n favor

The Austrians had constructed a strong

at the point of the bayonet. But, repulsed
from this, they fell back behind their forti-
fications in the town of Palestro.
Here the fight became general, and

On the one hand, Napoleon’s head quar-
ters, from the first at Alessandria, had been
moved to Cassale. The head of the right
wing, under Marshal d’Hilliers, was still at
Tortona, but its right had fallen back on
Arguata, which was strongly occupied.
Unless the Austrian movement was a
feint, it was believed that, somewhere in
this vicinity, would be the first general en-
gagement.

London, May, 30.—Advices from the seat
of war give the particulars of Garibaldi’s
movements, which are of the most success-
ful and important character. The Austri-
ans had been driven from Como, and were
rapidly retreating from all points. On the
lake of Como, towards Alilan, Garibaldi’s
many platforms and trooPs Aad occupied Camerlo Secco, and be-
fore entering Como a severe engagement
took place between the Austrian troops and
the force under Garibaldi. The Austrians
met the revolutionists and vigorously dis-
puted their approach to the city, but after
a furious combat of three hours duration,
the Austrians were defeated and driven
back with severe loss, the Italian troops
pursued them into the city, which they fi-
nally captured at the point of the bayonet,
