The Strategic character of the .battle of Magenta is, However, now for the first time before us in an authentieadeseriptim. We already knew that General MeMalkon had posed the,river at Turbigo, and had repiihied a .feeble attack there made Upon him by the Austrians, and we now learn. that the Gener- al had been strengthened in his nosition by the Grenadiers DI the Imperial dunrd: The ,assage of hfurshitl Canruber4 corps cVarrner ly the bridge at BulTalura was arranged to 'correspond with a lateral movement which was intended to be made by General Mc Mahon to siwport this passage. While Mqtfahon, already on LOmbardy side,'rnored to the attack of the Austriai form posted at Magenta and Buffolora ; bu whose strervii and position 'seem to have been underrated, the Mtnperor with the Zen. aver of his Guard was to force the passage at 13uffslora t supported by tie corps d'armce of Canrobert, and by other divisions which were to follow in continuous columns. The brce which was to ha‘e etrected the opera. ions at Buffidora did not - arrive at the up- pointed time,. and when Mlifshon's division appeared on the left bunk of the Ticino, and attacked the Austrians on the Turbigo side of their position, thA Emperor fount, himsel at the head of a smaller number of men than he had anticipated. Cenrobert had been de. )ayed, and the Austrians had, according to the French accounts, fuund means to .concen• rate a force of -125,000 men. at'the poi! J. F. Si110IX:AtIII. where Iti'Mahon was now attacking. The Emperor, with the. Zousves of his Guard, seems to have crossed to WMahou's assist. once, and an unequal comba t . of four hours duration 'ensued period Canrobert mime up, and other troops had succeeded in disentangling' themselves from the confusion of the choked causeways in the rear. M'Mahon, whose attack from the Turbigo side had been interrupted by a necessity of uniting his columns, returned to the charge. when he heard the fitsillade upon the BulTslora side ofihn Austrian position:— The Austrian; who had been fur smite time in superior force, and bad taken prisoners_ and guns from their assailants, driving them back, we are not told bow far, were now- in theirturn assailed by ta superior, or at loast an equal force, and were hard pressed both you their centre and left, and compelled to evacuate Butlalura im order to make bead against lit'llahon, attacking Nat Algenta. This diversion enabled ,the Emperor to" vig orously resume the utfansive,7 and it is an incident of great- importance in estimating the futore chances of the war, that large hod• ies of Hungarian troops now laid down their arms, under. us it would appear, no very pres;:ing necessity. While the Austrians were thus Vigorously attacked on both sides, and were experiencing something very' like defection in their ranks, General 'Auger had succeeded in getting forty guns into position upon the railway -.embankment which flanked the Austrian positinc. From this he poured into their' masses a , destructive fire, whielv must have told wiltfearful effect, and way account for the gr4t carnage which the Aus trians are raid to Have suffered. Meanwhile McMahon had pur.sued,his attack- successful. ly and had driven the enemy front Magenta, putting more than 10,000 Austrians hors du combat, and making 5,000 prisoners. This village, however, was so desperately disput ed that it was taken and retaken-no less than seven times, reinforcements of _the allied troops continually arriving upon the field, and, ai tt, would appear, forming one contin uous line along the 'Lonthardy hank of the Ticino. The battle lasted until half past, eight o'- clock at night, and, as we hear nothing of the action of the Austrian guns, we must suppose that they were very interior, in art.illery, and were, of course-, at a dreadful 'disadvantage while the forty pieces of cannon were pLY ing_upon them from the railway emharik• ment, At this hour, we are told, the Aus trains "withdrew," leavit:g in the bands o the victors four guts and two flagsas' the moderate trophies of this obstinately, Tought field..... The allies were uridouble . dly_ the vic tors, for they held the field and the position. They also had taken 7,000 prisoners, but, as sonic of these were taken is regiments, an: as they are foi the most part Min- Aerial's and ltslians, it may perhaps he doubted whether the"' bulk , of the . -Aus trian soldiers in the hands of the allies should•he more correctly characterizoi vs prisoners or deserters. .The estimate of killed and wounded can hardly be received with perfect confidence when made so Mime: diately after 'the battle; but if 27,000 men were really killed, woundeil and taken, some of them must have beenbut lightly armed, for only 14,000 muskets were found upon the field. , Such is the Freneh,acconnt of the battle of Magenta, and in all its strategic points, it is doubtless in the main correct., That it pas. sea lightly over the events of those 'terrible four hours when the Emperot and his Guards were committed to a contest with superior numbers, is but natural.

To gain this gieat bat. tle is another glory to the French arms, but to lose such a battle and yet to conduct the retreat of so great an army over so difficult a country unmolested and unpursued is a credit to,the Austrian fumy only second to the glory of victory.—London Tines. . At the end of this terrible The following particulars of the battle o Magenta are extracted from a letter in the Constitutionnq of Jpne 10; written front Novara, on Jane fith, by %. Ernest Dreo " Yesterday, as the first battalion of the voltigeurs of the Guard, after conquering in a first engagement at Turbig,o, were pursuing their march-toward Milan, it appears that 40,000 Austrians, massed in' columns, •khd den!), countermarched, and, confident ii, their numbers, advanced against our leading col umns, hoping to tuna them, and cheek the concentration of our forces upon Milan.— But they had not taken into their account the division of the Grenadiers and Chasseurs of the Guard commanded by Generil This division rapidly fiot together • between Butialora and Magenta, not far (ruin the •spot where the Turco* fought, and they very soon showed a-front to the enemy. Toward noon the Austrians, atter hesitating for some time, decided to attack. The Zuuaves and Grenadiers united did not make up more than 10,000 men, but without budging a foot they held their ow!' against the vainly ener• getic efforts of the 40,000 Ausuians. The latter, surprised at= Such an obstinate reiis lance, retired in good older, formed again, and returned to the charge a second time.— They might as well hd,ve !rushed against a brazen rainpart. The Guard soon . became tired of this passive attitude, and resolved to take the offensive. It charged and scattered thb enemy. But the latter, perci4ving - how small were the niinalscra of the French, came up again and again. Seven times . in the course of two hours were these heroic charges renewed. The Grenadier; and Zou ayes were eleetrified by the presence of the Emperor who, sword' in hand, supported and directed them. The Emperor, however, was frequently seen to turn his eyes toward the points where, pursuant to his orders and cal culations, he expected to'see the divisions of Niel and .Mchfslion make their appearance. They arrived, and were saluted with a- long bravo, which astonished and "disconcerted the enemy. General •McMahon advanced to Magenta with an ardor, a dash,santi an enthu siasm which was the admiration of the whole army. At the moment when his attacking column was crossing the bridge, General Es 'pinasse, who was leading it with his well known intrepidity, was unfortunately struck by a ball in the very center of his breast.— lie have died instantly. On seeing him fall, the soldiers, - quite beside themselves, rushed forward toltvonge his death. Noth ing could stop them--on, on they went, sweeping awry every obstacle; .and after - completely routing the enemy they efrected their - junction with the Imperial Guard, which was all the while - comtnanded by the Emper or in person. The ( bnittle was gained. Mar shal Canrobert and General Eegnault de St. Jean d'Angley had done wonders on their side. We were masters of the field.— ) hear that the Emperor warmly congratulat ed the tiew Duke of Magenta, to whom he attributed a large share in the success ut the day, The Empetcir did notnttrink from ex posing himself during the action, *ad more than once Gen. Fleury threw himself before him, braving, with a devotion, which all ad ' mired, though all were ready to do the same, the gulfets which fhreateued his Sifitje_sty." • gar From the TriLune's translation of an article in .the• Journal des Debugs, on the bat tle of Magenta, we extract the following: " Very strange incidents are told, which make one ask what has become of •the Hun garian regiments and those famous battalion• of the military colonies, and those bands of Crosts who used to rush shouting to the charge "At thq time of the forward-movement oi the 31st the divibious of Lilia 411: which did no), count less tban 20.000 men: They were covered by a deep canal, protected •by • a_hight, mid defended by a buttery whirk, had been admirably placed.

When .we saw these m en run up - toward these guns sweeping them, with grapeoleap into the eo ns!, climb the-bunk, upd then charge upon us without tiring a shot, our battalions trem bled like a flock of sheep assaulted by a wolf. Nothing Controlled them—neither Orders - nor threats; they ran. And still these soldiers are brave and , well disciplined. They. would stand all day under fire without flinching; but tbis sort of an atteck—this beg inning with the bayonet—terrifies them. As I said, I don't understand it at all.' .
