which- projects n mile or thereabouts into the
p'tuin uud then breaks ctf towards the left into n
wide cx|?aiisc of smaller hills, aud A into the
rolling surface which makes that portion of the
plain The Austrian* had taken |Hfeiliou upon
these hill*?pluntiug cannon upon those nearest
to Castiglione, which they could approach, as the
French army was in full force in and around that
little village?and liad stationed their immense
as-rny nil over die surrounding |>iaiu.
As nearly as we can now learn the Emperor
Elancis JoseprMuid collected here not less than
223,0tM| troops, and commanded tlieni in person.
1 lis evident mirnose was to tnnkca stand here and
i i*k t??<? fortune* of the war u|>o? the hazards of
the day. Nnpoloon promptly accepted I ho challenge,
nnd commenced the nM/iek as soon as it
was light this morning hy placing cannon upon
the hills still nearer to Castlglinne tlun those held
l?y tho Austvians, and opening tire upon them on
Ilia heights beyond, lie took his own stand upon
the highest of these, n steep, sharp backed
ridge which commands a inagniheent view of the
entire e-ircuit of the plain, and from that point
directed the entire movement* of his army during
the enrly portion of the day.
Tho French very soon drove the enemy out of
the posts they held nearest to the town, and followed
them into the niuill villages of the plain
lietbw. The first of these was Solforino, where
they had a sharp and protracted engagement.?
The Austrinns disputed every inch-of tin- ground, j
and fought here, as they did throughout tho day. I
with the utmost desperation. They were three \
tiims* driven out of the town before they would |
*ta/f out. The people of the village, moreover, j
took part against the French, upon whom they 1
fired from tlicir windows and the French were
compelled in self-defence to bum the tow n.
When the Anstrhins found it impossible to hold
their ground any longer, tliev fel! hack slowly
ami steadily, until they readied the village of
Yoltn, which, as you will see by the map, lies directly
south-east from Cusligifone, and is er.'.y i
about n mtlc troni me river :r<,n, which,
howev/r, it is separated by n range ol Mil*. Op
on these hills, in the rear ot Hie town, and overlooking
it complotVon liu> south nnd south-east
sides, the Auili'iniu lmd |ilnntril very formidable
batteries; and wlmii I arrived ii|>on the Heldand
went nt once to Hie height where the Fuiperoi
lmd stood ut the opening of the engagement, hut
which he had left an hour before to follow hivictorious
troops, these batteries were hlnxing
away upon the French who were stationed on
the |dtiin below.
I wns too far off to observe- with any accuracy j
the successive steps of the action, but I could distinctly
see the troops stationed u|>on the lirond
plain, and moving up in musses towards the front,
>vl?vre the artillery was jx?*ted, as their services
were required, lint as soon as tlicy reached this
point tl ctr were speedily enveloped in the smoke
f the cannon, nnd disappeared from observation. I
Ifut the general result was soon made evident liy |
the slackening of the Austrian tire, and by the fall- |
ing back of their smoke and a corresponding ad- :
vance 011 the part of that which rose from the !
French artillery. The cannonading at that point |
lasted for over an hour; hut in precisely what
direction the Austrian* ret rented, it was not pos j
slide, from the position I occupied, to see. Fart ]
of the Austrian force prolwldy crossed the Mincio 1
Uivcr. which flows southward from the lower !
end of hake tiunrdn, and empties into the t'o.
ljul the ItAlllt* continued to rage nn over mere >
gimi north-west of n lino connecting lit*; towns of
Caetiglioue, Solferiiio, and Yoltn. At one point
after another n short cannonading would nriso
nml continue for hnlf or t hroe quarters of nn hour,
and after each successive engngcinenl of this kind
the result became apparent in the retreat oi the
Austrian* hnd the advance of the French forces. |
During all the early part of the day the skx J
had been clear and the weather hot. but clouds '
began to gather about noon, nnd at. five o'clock
while the cannonade was at its height, a trornen- >
dous thunder storm rolled up from the north-west:
the wind csnie first, sweeping from the parched
streets nn oHoruiotis ehuid of dust, ami was toon
followed by a heavy fall of rain, accompanied by
v ivid lightning nnd rapid explosions of rattling
thunder. 'I i?i- stortrf lasted for about nn hour, ami
the cannonading, so far ."w we could distinguish,
was suspended. Then the rs.'in ceased, the clouds
blew away, the sun shone out again, and the nir
was cooled and perfectly delightful.
Though the cannon may have ec.iscn fi.wntiine !
to take part in it, the fight hn<! meantime ?on? |
<>n ; ami when I again resumed my post of ol>- J
nervation, from which tliestorm had expel ltd ue, J
tiic cannonading commenced quite on the extreme
leh of the entire field, and on the very borders
ot the lake, north-east from Castiglionc and west
of l'eseltiera. Tho Pieilmiiritese troops, under the
King, who commands them in person, had been
*)o9ted there and received the Ain'trians as they
canto around. From nhout 7 o'clock until after
nightfall an incessant and most terrible comltat
was here kept up. The hatteiies of the two armies
wore apparently about Itnlf a mile np.:rf,
mid nt the outset they were both served with :
nearly equal and effective vigor; but Hie Austri- [
ons griuliially slackened their tire ami several
limes took np new positions, while the Sardinians
poured a rapid and uninterrupted shower cf
halls upon Litem, suspending only for a few minutes
at* time, nnd then renewing it again with
redoubled fury.
The wind had now gone down, the air was
still, and the sonn-d of musketry, as well as of the
cannon, was di-tiiictly heard. The former was
continuous, sharp, mid incessant, souiming like
the constant and irregular pntteriugof hail upon |
a roof, while tho latter wnsoeeasion illy suspend- I
ol, hut while it lasted was over win lining! v graiul j

glorious setting in the west, ?nd hi* light gradually
departed the vivi?l flashes at each disehmge
of the cannon gleamed through the smoke like
harp lightning through the breast of an enormous
cloud. Sonio'imes only a single flash would
be seen, then two or three nt once, nrid sometimes
Jinlf a dozen would break '-irth in instant succes
It wn? beginning to be dark when I turned to
descend the hill, and nil the way down I still
heard the roav of the cannon nnd u'.'C clattering
?>f the gone of the infantry. But the A''strums
were clearly falling bock, nnd could scarcely i',nve
foiled to sustain a t otal route. It is possible they
may be in condition to make one more struggle
in the morning, but, judging from my own olr
servation, it certainly is not probable. They
hove sustained an overwhelming defeat, ami it
scenic to me. not unlikely that the Kinpcvor may
/low lie induced, by the representation* of iho
jieidrai l'owcra, to accept the peace whieh Napoleon
will.be very likely to tender him.

was distinctly visible in the direction of Man'

Thursday Morning, July 21. 1859.
The Weather.
Without doubt, wo nre now experiencing the
worniO't weather tliut has jMissed this way for
many a day. The thermometer, at noon, has
ranged from 95 to 99 decrees every day this
week. When and where the thing will stop the
wisest of us nre unable to tell.
Court.
The Extra Term of the Court commeneell its
scs?i in on Tuesday morning last?his Honor '
Judge Wiiitner presiding. Up to 6 o'clock yea
terday a'lernoon, hut one ease hud heen disj>osed
of?that of M. P. DiCKKY re. the Hush Creek and
| South Tyger Prainngo Company. The jury had
! not, at the time of goiog to press, returned a
ver.Het It is thought that the end of the docket
will not be reached, notwithstanding the
Court is to convene for two weeks.
Fine Fruit.
Wc ftro indebted to i)r. Kandall Croft for the
| present of some most excellent ponchos. We
know of nothing more delicious and healthful
than good, ripe fruit, and we know of no one
in our District who lias succeeded better in its
i cultivation than our friend, Pr. Croft. May he
! live a great while to enjoy the fruit? of his la1
hors, and he, as he is, n source of joy to his friends.
A New School House.
Wc invite attention to the advertisement of j
the Hnilding Committee of the proposed new J i
School-house and I.eeturc Koptn to he ereeU-d in |
our village. Tlie building is to he located on the
vacant lot of land west of the dejiot. and is, we
think, admirably suited for the purpose. The
School, it is intended, ahull go into operation curly
in,the be'Inning of th next year. U will com.
prise a Male and Female Departnmiit, which are
to be under the management of able teacher*.?
The attention of contractors is railed to the advertisement,
and bid* arc respectfully invited
from all.
The Boads.
We presume that the roads through onr District
are, generally, in good condition. We have
heard a few complaints, however, In respect to
the negUet of the Commissioners in one or two
particulars, viz: Suffering heavy rocks to remain
in the roads and failing to remove the
branches of contiguous trees, which operate had- |
ly upon covered wagons and other vehicles.? j
These little matters have only to be brought to j
the notice of the Commissioners, whom we are j
confident will remove all hiudrances aud obstructions.
The Village of Fairview.
It will be seen, by an advertisement in anoth- '
/>e onlnmn llnil several lots are advertised to be i
sold ft' tl?o above place. Tlic village of Fnir.
view is lo. ate 1 in a beautiful section of our l?is<r;ct,
and surrounded l?y ninny thriving, indnstr'.o.H
and pious families; nnd an investment in
this property would, 110 doubt, be n good one,
^ particularly to those parents who are delirious
I of educating their children.

Theory of Education," V?" presented in n most
entertaining manner to his ii.-tcnTs. and has received
a more lasting shape by t,eii?g published
in pni?i|>hlet form, it contains many beautiful
sentences, as well as many interesting facts "id
arguments, und is well worthy a careful pernio'. |

Tiie Zov.wf.*.?This cxlrnordinnrv boily of infantry
originated in the wars of Algeria, where
the Freneii found that soldiers differently trained
from tiie rest of the array were necessary to coinpete
with the swift and nimble Arabs. They
are mostly natives vf France. A large number,
however, are educated and drilled in Algiers.?
They are inured to every hardship, learn active
gymnastics of all kinds, tunning on both hands
and feet, creeping, climbing, nn>1 practising n
peculiar bayonet exercise, with hnyoucl? as ru
zors, and in their hands ns available as small
swords. The Baltimore American regards the>e
?oiis of Bothnia to lie thn-min-t effective infantrv
in the world, as peculiarly fitted for the performance
of bloody deeds, but utterly unfit for the
lobcr ditties of life. Tiie editor asks: *' What
is the mere momentum of a body of heavy men,
mmpnred to tiie impetuous rush, the incredible
igility, the terrible xkill. the tiery intrepidity of
the Zouave sthletcs. They are cnvalrv and' in
'antry combined. Whether there are any troops
in the world who enuld withstand their lightning-like
assaults, may well he doubted. The
rifles that did such murderous havoc u(mhi I'nckenh'im's
divisions front hehiud the cotton bale*
it New Orleans, might cheek them by dealing
instant death tijioii two-tldrds or four-tilths ot
their iiuoiIkT ; but bayonet to Imyuust, the hnrdv
ind gallantTennosseeansand Kentitekians would
go down before them. Their match is not in all
the earth."
Ricklf.s axo ins Wife.?The New York Tribune
of Tuesday has the following:
*" We are credibly informed from various sources
that the Hon. Daniel R. t?iekles has heeome entirely
reconciled with his wife, and is now living
with her in uinrital relations, as before lite death
of the lute Philip Hilton Key. We are also assured
tlntf in taking this remarkable step, Mr,
Sickles has alienated himself from most, if not nil
of those personal and political friends who devotedly
adhered to him during his recent imprisonment
ami trial.
* i lie reconciliation nctuccn .?ir. ami air*, ruckle#
wai consummated. ni we ore informed, while
Mr. S. was residing at the house of o friend on
the Plonmihgdale Road, about half n mile from
the former house of Mr. S , which for wine time
past Mr#. Sickles has occupied, either alone or
with some of the ntemliers of lo-r own familv.?
The suspicion of his host were excited hy the repeated
absence of Mr. S. at unusual hours; and
wh?n he came in very early one morning lie xvns
interrogated hy the host and another friend who
was present, and on hi# positively denying their
right to question him nint refusing to??ive an explunntion,
they shook hands with him for the
lust time and he withdrew. It is said he has
since addressed letters to hi# former intimate a#
socint?a. notifying them formally of the resumption
of conjugal relations between hini'elf and
Mix Sickles.
Tiik Porn Colo Misk.?This mine is situated
in Abbeville Pbtriet, South Carolina, near the
Kdgefield line, and ahout six miles from the Savannah
river, ami according to O. M Lieher.
State (ieologi?t, is one of the richest and most
productive in the world.
(?n the hill of the older Porn Mine, are two
rei:>a?enrol which opened in 18.M. in the short

t ?je bushel of the ore from a single blast

the uvesi.ge production of the richest portion
of the hulc,"ni.d 'vas found to contain the
large sum of $t,lOO. a s:,igle small horse mill
was employed in working tin' innhi portion of
this vein, and yet during the m.-st productive period,
the weekly yield amounted to .about $10,
(?00.
North of this vein, about thirty feet, I# another
which hns been opened for about, two hundred
yard# and is the one which is now chiefly worked.
This vein has also been very prodnctive. The

and that of the Itorn Mine, has been $90O,(H>0,
although engines linve been employed only within

1 Ast night, startled by a loud explosion, which
caused something of n stampede. Upon enquiry
into its cause, it was found to have resulted from
a candle having heen stuek into A snuff bottle
which contained n quantity of gun powder.?
When ttic Candle burnt down, the powder, of
co rse, fulfilled its destiny, and the bottle went
n a burst, setting fire, which was soon exting
fished, to some articles in the room. Ko person
was present at the time, or the consequences
might have been serious. Pu< not your trust in
Imttles, their content* are almost always dan
