The bnt" j tie of Magenta wns a decisive victory for the French aud Sardinians. Since, the allies hare oocupied Milan, beinreceived by the inhabitants'most enthusiastically. Several I subsequent smaller victories have crowned i tlio arms of the French. The Austrians are \ TCtreating, and aro <])ns?1y pursued by the ' allies. These successes have cost the Austrians 25,000 men killed or wounded, 10,000 prisouers, 17 cannon, muskets and munitions of war. The loss of the allies is also heavy, but not given in round numbers. N.\rol.Eox, the Emperor of the French, is gaining laurels and popularity, as coinmantlcr-in chief. Ho is probably the greatest captain of the age. Something is said about penco, but nothing is positively known as t) the state uf the pulse of tho bolligorents on the subject. On the othor hand, Germany ami Prussia arc disposed to side with Austria, llussia mean" while keens them in cheek. So, instead of .... peace, a generiil war is imminent. The Weather. For the information of those blessed just now with a cool climate, or those fond of be ing told the truth, wo would state that the weather is warm?decidedly the warmest of tho season ! The prospect for a shower is ^>oii, ami pornaps witn it may conic n change of tho present steamy tcinporaturo. Masonic Celebration.

The procession moved to tho Johnson F?mulo University, where an atUln59Sjjipproi>riaj? to the occasion, was delivered by ilon. J. L. Our, a member of Hiram Lodge. It is spoken of in tlie highest terms. Dinner w.\3 served up at Finloy's hotel; after which, toasts and speeches were the order of tho day. The Election. Tho election in Williamsburg District, for n tnombor of tbe Legislature, was held on Monday and-Tuosday of last week. Dr. ?J. S. BaocicrNT'vv, anti-liluo Ridge, has boon - ciect^d, receiving threo hundred and six votos. The Kingstrcc Slur, in an article on tho lload, says : F.von if the next I/?gisla I turo should withhold aid, wo will not oonsi- ' dcr the project abandoned. In lft??U there will be a general election in the State, ami the Blue llidgc quoslfon will be made an isV sue. Tho friends of the 4load will thrtn pot the matter beforo the peoplo in its true li^ht, anil we have little fears of its success. The Presidency. A Tho canvass for the Presidential election, , ' which is to bo held in ISCO, has already com 7 jncnccd. The democrats aro surrounded l?y elrcumstnnces not vpry oneouraging. and there are some in the party who proiliot its early dissolution. But tliis is hy no means certain. Should it fall to the ground, a now party, embracing its principles, will be formed. Son a tor Douur.is and Gov. Wise, of Va. aro made prominent for the position by a portion of the press of the democratic party, tlio latter gentleman being the most'popular and available man of tlio two. It is very uncertain, however, who will be nominated, and (perhaps there exists a greater uncertainty as <o whether or not the nominee can bo sue eossful. Tho South should only enter the Charleston convention on high ground, maintain it at all hazards, and insist upon the selection of true and ruliahlo men. liut this is long in advance of any action than can ho . | had on tho subject, and, as " moderation" is ^ N ' iho watchword in certain quartors, tho anti1 minted 44 vrntch nml wnit" nolii-v nmv mitlin / inappropriate) now. The times, howovor, arc / not temporising in their charnctor. The Place fok Lotai.s.?The perfection of tho sub-editorial spirit is to wish thnt your best friend would die, in order that you c6uld servo ffm up in a touching obituary. The author of the subjoined appears to have gone nearly as deep into iho fooling. Ho tliinkH San Francisco a " splendid place for locals." " The great number of Indians, Mexicans and John Chinamon, in that city, ami tljeir novol curious habits and customs afford innumerable items, to say nothing of the daily occurrence of murders, fights, duels, suicides, and such mtlo oceentricities which in tlicir plentitude, enable ft reporter to perre tip ft linefi, and asliockaccident in two.

MoviiMlIl nffftii'tt nrn it* nn nncnJJliwI tion. A telegram from Wshiugton states tlmt one of the Mcxiuan generals hail received an oiler of 3,000 American troops to aid the liberal cause in Mexico. Wo doubt it? truth. A paragraph, originated by n Washington papor, to the effect that Col. Orr is engaging his energies in State politics, with a view to remodeling onr State constitution, is going tho rounds of the press. If there be truth in j it, it is unknown in these parts. There has been another freshet in the Mississippi doing much damage. The loss in money is several uiousami uoiiars. The livor is higher than it lias been for twenty-six years. A Book of FunSnti.i.aIJK.u, of the Boston press, is on the eve of issuing a new volume uf Mrs. Pariin;/ion's sharp ami dull witticisms. Ilis first book, of the same character, had an immense sale; but why, wo never could imagine. It was peculiarly nonsensical, but wc suppose it was not discovered until it had had its run. Tlio new candidate for popular favor is flourishingly announced, and another " success" is predicted.

That tho entry of tlio French into i Milan, supported by a popular manifestation, shall be considered by the European Powers as a convincing proof of the disapprobation in Italy of Austrian policy. 3d. Tho neutral Powers will insist on an . | armistice while congress is assembled. 4th. Tho extension of the Kingdom of Sardinia will be deemed essential ; tho Duchies . of Parma and Modena, with tho fortress of ' I'iaconza, nro to be added to it. 5th.
