.pears when it became evident that , hostilities
would actually commence, the , friends of the
Cmint represented to the Emperor that the'
Minister' could. influmwe the' policy . 13f England
very favorably towards him...ln. this they
were disappointed', and .his enemies at court'
made it an efficient weationsagainst him, at the
Barrie. time erltrising. an official' application to
the ezar for. the good: will,.at least of Rauh.
This vres•refused so'long as %SUM held .olfice,
the Gortschakoff, with the Emperor, still hold
ing in. mind that
,Burl had. been at' pains to
write his.congratulations to the Etriperor Nar

TheMO of Bellalafa
Much.surprise is expreised by many persons
that the Austriaria,,after crossing Abe .Ticino,
should haVe made' such slow.prOgress in . their
march of inVasion, When every hour to•theno. is
'so important: It 'is stated' in a fetter from
Tiffin, that the "Sardiniani.have ,blown,.up the
bridge. et .BUffalora, 'felled .trees across . the
roads; and, cut the dykes, and - thus have over- . :
flowed the fields this, Aide- of . .the This
.will perhaps, account for . the delay, of the . Ant
trians. the roads across the. plains
•of Sardinia, now the seat of war,.are or were'
lined' with rows of full.groien,trees, and a very
little laboewould materially fchs,truct: the roads
far tic° or three days at least... A cOrrestion-,
h
dent of oursaving recently....travelle.d s. by.car
rine, from Milan to Turin by BuffalOra, No
,vara and Vercelli, sends us a
,n extract; from his
journal written on, the spot .which. may be in
te'resting to the.reader,
.now that this part of
Stirdinia is so suddenly made famous:
f , Novart.i, Sept. 24—We left Milan this
carriage for Novara, arriving,here at
1.1 o'clock'this afternoon... The road is good
all the way; being nearly straight and a dead
levelorith the' exception of . one or two slight
and gradual ascents and descents. • We crossed
on foot'the magnificent granite s bridge•over the
Ticino at.Boffalora. This bridge is 1,000 fee .
long, and is.thefinest Iridge.l ever saw ',way'
from a city or , town. It had eleven nrches of
uniform size, and is built of immense blocks of
hewn granite, at a cost of nearly $700,000.
StiCh abridge could not be built for a million
Of dollars , in the United States. The parapets
are of hewn granite in immense blocks, font.
feet high, two feet . widetindsin long; sidewalks
tr
on eac side of solid 'blocks of granite, and
douhle train = ways-. constructed' of 'the
smite materialfor carriages. Indeed the bridge,
is perfect; and'withal so sternly simple that not
a dollar-appeitre to have been expended for .
;mere ornament. Unless hlown . Up by
gun
powder, or thrown tip ' .. by an. earthquake; it
would last until the, end of time.
“The . Ticinio is a rapid, clear itream,: . run;
