Further Particulars of the Battle of SolferinoAccount ok tub Kukncii I'ai-kks.? Oavria'na, June 25.? Still another "lorious day was yesterday. 1 cannot give all the details of the battle, as I do not yet know tliein. 1 give a sketch of the facts that 1 know, for tone will not let me describe them at length. When at Brescia, on the 20th and 21st .ve learned that the enemy had abandoned Moil tech "nro and Castiglione. Oonse tjuently we advanced with the Iimperor to occupy their positions. On the 24th, we reached Oastiglione at 0 a. ni? and found a column prepared for battle a half a league thence, with the Austrian*, com manded by their Emperor in person, who they say, had promised to take tlieni the same evening to dine at Milan and the next day to drown us all in the Ticino I need not say that their army was formidable. The attack, which was begun at Solfe vino, situated near Oastiglione and Lake Garda, one of the Nlainelon forts of the chain of the Tyrol mountains, was not tiauu ? HtivMH acmui.u lusavs uil unr aiv.ii.% for the two regiments of tlio line, tlie 91st anu 9S:h, as well as the 17 th battalion of chasseurs, (1st corns,) had to contend against a force ten tunes .superior in number and inoie advantageously placed on ibis bill, and entrenched in a strong town which crowned itj crest. Our men began to fall hack, overwhelmed by numbers, when the battalion of Chasseurs of the Guard and the two lirst regiments of Voltigeurs, forming to gether the First Brigade of tha second l>ivision, came to their support. In full view of us they rushed upon the enemy, who was beateu down and driven away from his position. We followed, at a charge, with the bayonet, to the foot of a ravine, where there was another village. Ine firing began from the winuows and roofs, and it was hero that wo lost tho most men. Nevertheless we drove the Austrian* from this village and from six or eight line positions, which thev oc eupied, on tho hills that stretch along Lake Garda. Several villages were also taken. FinikUy, Iroiu caiiofnnt ti.iut;, wt: lnul used ail our ammunition, and wo had nothing lor defence l?ui our bayonets and the stones that fell in our way. Wo made good use of them ; but the enemy perceiving this, took adtantage of it to stop his retreat lor a moment. Then the Grenadiers anil Zouaves came up to join us, and sustained the fire with their artillery, while we got fresh ammu nilion. This was scon done, and we pushed on at a charge, and they withdrew to the strong village of Gavriana. There they placed themselves in the houses and the church-towers, whence they fired on us with important effect, But as soon as we got on the hill on which the village is situated, we made a horrblo slaughter among them, and drove them back towards Peschiera. While the infantry of the Guard were .performing such fine feats on the mountain, the whole cavalry force, which only j ?/i i?t:*i itA niiuui r* 11 \ w fti active on tlio plain at our right, vvlieie they fought with the Austrian cavalry.? The Kuiperor was in the midst of us. going from one point to another, without fear of the tiring or the bullets of the enemy, which were all around him. lie en couraged us ?ho whole day, and wo had need of it, for wo were exhausted with climbing and descending at a running pace, from 4 in the morning till 1) in the evening, and that in a tropical heat, with out anything to eat or drink the whole time. To day, as at Magenta, there is a sus. pension of hostilities, to burv the dead unci remove tlie wounded. We have taken a groat quantity of' prisoners and many cannon. Moreover, we have all the best positions and we are on the Mincio. One or two more blows like this, and I think ihey will have had enough. Tiie Al'btm an Accounts of Sourki no.?The Austrian accounts admit of 20,000 killed, wounded and miaj|^H The right wing of their army ocouptBT Hozzolengo, Solferino and Cavriana. The'" left wing marched on the 24th to (lurdiz alo and Caste! Goft'redo, and repulsed the advancing enemy. As the Imperial army continued to advance towards the Chie.se, the French, who had also assumed the offensive. with their whole force, pushed forward such large bodies of troops that there was a general engagement between the two armies, at 10 o'clock, on the morning of the 24th. The right wing was fgrmed of the second army, under Count Scldick, who maintained tho position first occupied until 2 o'clock p. m , and the left wing, composed of the first army, under Count Wimpssen, continual Jv gained ground m the direction of the I 11 > i.jn wvtu/urrfa .1 /kV?ln/*Lr tlin anttmn made a vehement attack on Solferino, and, after several hours' hard lighting, obtained possession of tho place which bad been heroically defended by the 5th corpsd'armee. They then attacked Cavriana, which was courageously defended until evening, by the 1st and 7th corps, but eventually left in the bands of the oiieinv. While the struggle for Solferino and Oavriana was going on, the 8th corps ? which was on the outer Hank of the right wing?advanced and repulsed the Sardinian froops ; but the advantage did not enable the Imperial Army to recove, the positions they had lost in the centro JUe 8d and ftb corps, which, supported , by tlio 11th corps, were engaged on tho left wing, and leserved for cavalry at* tacks, made several brilliant attacks. The ; unusually heavy losses, and the fact that | the left wing ol the lirst army was unable I to make progress on the right flank and I the centre against Volta, led to the re ! treat of (ho Imperial Army. It began j early in the evening, during a violent I storm. An English Act oust.? A coirespondenl of the London Herald savs, so little did the French expect a battle, that on the previous night a t message, received from the King of Sardinia asking for sup port in oiiso he shook! bo attacked, met I with u refusal, on the ground that an at 1 lack by the Austiians was not probable. ;Vi day break, however, the corps of 1 t llilhers came in sight of Solferino and I was immediately set up bv a large Aus trian force an<l fought desperately. The ! Marshal resisted to the best of his power and sent oil'for support ; but not before three hours of dreadful carnage had pass ed, did Neill's corps make its appearance. The Austrian.* were then slowly driven hack and the French continued to gain ground, heaps of corpses making the lluctuations of the fight. The Austrian* were thus slowly driven out of Solferino, but all of a sudden they made a tretnenduous burst forward, and the French were driven down the hill.? They were adtnirab'y supported by their artillery, however, and made a stand and commenced once more advancing. It was like a hail storm of bullets and balis, and whole files were moved down by a single discharge. In the meanwhile the right and left wings of the Austrian* were decidedlv ,r J getting the bust of it. The Piedmontese were slowly driven back. Canroberl's corps was also heavily punished, and bad there beofi a skillful general in the Aua trian army, to collect and concentrate their threes against a weak point in the enemy's lines, matters would have assum ed a very different aspect. The French commander sent forward the Imperial (jSuard and a strong division of infantry into the line against the Austrian centre and succeeded in breaking it. Instead of bringing up forces to repel this formidable attack, the supports were sent to the left and right wings, which did not need them. Desperate attempts were made to recapture Solferino, lait the French held it, and presently the Austrian bugles commenced sounding a general retreat. An attempt was made by cavalry to pursue them, which led to an encounter between the French l*Minssi?iir.i uml t"?. tr'fau llulaus, in which the former rapidly put to tlie right about, ami retreated.

The Edgefield Advertiser of lust week, contains a long editorial under the caption: "Arc wo to Accept Douglas?' The Adver- | tiaer is, we believe, the lirst paper in this ' State that has intimated tlint the South J could poaaih'j do worse than to accept Douglas as her standard bearer :n the next | Presidential contest. It does not believe that the election of a Black Republican to the Presidency will bring about disunion, and suggests that if we remain in the Union I and are to decide between two alternatives ?Douglas and an out and out abolitionist? would it not be better to take the former ? It says in conclusion : For ourselves personally we have no loaning towards Senator Douglas, but rather the contrary. Vet it will probably become u question, whether to prevent the election of a Black Republican, it may not he necessary for the South to unite upon the Senator from Illinois. Objectionable as bis course has been in several particulars of late, it may be that Ids availability for this emergency should not be loo angrily viewed by the South, it is on this account alone that we suggest the several propositions above given. These things should be thought about calmly and dispassionately. The Cheraw (iazrh'r has an article on the subject of the Charleston ('(invention and the possibility of Douglas receiving the nomination, which is the very antipodes of the above. The (iazette evidently has never entertained the ^niost remote notion that Douglas can ever again be acceptable to the South. It does not believe that lie will he the nominee of the Charleston Convention, and if perchance he should be, does not think that he can be elected. The Cazellc takes for granted that the entire Southern wing of the Democratic partv re- j pudiates Douglas, and says upon tile subject of his unavailability at the Soutl^: We know that some months back Mr.!
