the sharp explosion of small fireworks were
still to be heard in the streets. Altogether,
the celebration of the victory of Solferino
W»9 a holiday whose reminiscences will long
linger in the memory of the Parisians and
their stranger guests who participated in or
witnessed it.
Since the first meagre despatch of the
Emperor, sent scarcely an hour after tho
repulse of the Austrian* from the scene of
conflict, we have received some more partic-ntars,
though the mail lias as yet brought
| DO complete account of the battle. On the
25lh, the Emperor again telegraphed tha:,
detail was still impossible, but confirming
the retreat of the enemy, on the preceedinji
night, and mentioning the promotion o!
Gen. Niel to be Marshal of France. Th
Kuiperor stated that he had passed th<]
night after the battle ia tho room whiol
had been occupied the same morning by tht
Emperor of Austria. Subsequent despatch
es from other sources state that tho Austri
am were obliged to recross tho Mincio, and
seek the shelter of their celebrated fortified
quadrilateral, of which I shall say something)
presently. Thirty pieces of cannon and COO'U
prisoners were taken by the allies during
the engagement, which, from its long dura-tion,
and the wide territory over which the
lines of the belligerent armies were .stretch-ed,
seems io have been a desperate affair.—
Though probably the battle of Solferino will
exercise no more decisive influence over the
campaign'than did the battle of Magenta,
i! is not le-is another and a signal defeat of
1 the Austrian army, drawn up in the posi-i
th ins of its own choice, and under the imme-
: diate command of the BmfMWOr Francis Jo-
! scph. The French were led by their own
I Emperor, who, throughout the day, constant-ly
exposed himself in tho thickest of the
light, and encouarged his troops by his
vilice and example.
Gen. Niel, who has won his Marshal's ba-ton
at this memorable conflict, is ono of the

ROVER &. RAKER'S 8EWIW« MA-CHINES—
The attention of Housekeepers Seam-stresses,
Dress-maker9 and Tailors, is invited to the
unrivalled excellence of Grovrr & RaKcr'N
Sewing Machines. They are simple in construction,
efficient and durable in operation, beautiful in model
and finish, and applicable alike to families or manufac-tures.
The co.npany foci confident that their Machines are
tho public edifices of tho capital, the Ttiillcr-
: ies, the Louvre, Government offices, the Jlall
of the Corps Legislafif, the Mint, the Palace
eryjof the Luxembourg, or Senate House, the
' Hotel de Vilie, or City Jlall, tho Bourse, all
tho Theatres, and other buildings, were lit
up with myriads of gas lights and lampions,
and decorated with fiags. The impatient
citizens had scarcely waited for twi-light be-fore
illuminating their windows, balconies,
doorways, even the eaves of their houses.—
Tho particolored transparencies known as
Venitian lanterns were countless in number,
and very many of them were novel and
beautiful designs; some representing the
mingled French and Italian iri-colors, some
embellished with pictures of the Emperor i
Napolean, King Victor Emannel, Garribaldi, Tici
the famous Zouaves, the various corps of
the Imperial Guard and the Line, etc., etc.,
ad iiiiinimm. The effect of these innnmcra-i
to respond vigorously to the enemy's artile-ry."
It will be remembered that when the
Austrian column was at length broken and
commenced its prccipiated retreat, the forty
gone under the command of Gen. Auger,
