Post notices, amongst the latest inventions, a life-preserving
railroad car, made at Patterson, New Jersey. It
is constructed entirely of iron, of strong iron brace
and girders, and of iron panel pica, Do pecnliarlv and
ingeniously pat together that it would seem to im
possible, by any amount of force, to bend or break it, or
to do injury to it even by rolling it down a precipice.
The interior la finished off in the most elegant man
ner. Every panel has a fine papier mache pictnre in it
representing some famous view os monument ; the scats
are capacious, and the ventilators nomcrous and appa
rently efficient. Tx cur, owing to the greater thickness
of the iron sides, is eight inches wider than the narrow
guage cars arc usually, and weighs less by a ton than a
wooden ear of the same dimensions. This is certainly a
desideratum, for, in proportion to numbers, the battle of
Solfcrino was not more fatal in the destruction of fan

Inotich in so mixed aa afrt-mhly, still there was a
dignity and reserve ia the manurr of the white domino
that rather, repulxrd the idea of tsmiliar aklnm. and it
was tome time befcw the young sokliiv fnd courage to

Some alarm being riven, there was a violent nia oi

" An, hidyyoor evfry word eonvincef mc to Uic mv

to feci as it hod never alt before ; he was already ia
love.
Stic eluded Lis i Ports at di)covery, but permits Lim
to hand her to btt carriage, which drives off in the dark
ness, and though be throws himself upon his flccti'st
horse, be is unable to overtake her.
llic young Fraud colonel liecorms moody, he has lept
his heart anu knows not how to do. He wamm blth
er and thitlirr, slums his lormcr pluv of amusement,
avoids Lis military companion, and in aluirt is miniTalile
as a lover well can be, thus disappointed. Dne niirht,
just alter be Lad k-ft his hotel, on foot, a figure muflled
to the very ears, stornsxi tun.
" t il, monrictir, what would you with mo T afked
the soldier.
You would know tlie name of the white domino,"
was the reply.
I wouM indeed ! replied the officer hastily. " How
eaa it be done !"
"Follow me."
" To the end of tlie earth, if it will bring mc to UcTr."
" Hut you must l blindfolded."
Very well."
M Step luto the vehicle."
" I am at yotir command."
And away rattkd the young soldier and his comtmn
ion. " This may be a trick," reasoned Kucvnc Men ille.
" but I have no fear of personal violence. 1 am armed
witn tins misty sabre, and con tukc rare of myself.
Hut there was no cuiue lor kt, since lie soon found
tlie vehicle stopped, and be was kd blindfikkxl into tlie
house. When the bandnM wos removed from his eyes,
lie, found hiinnclt in a richly furnMwxl boudoir, and bo-
fore him stood the domino, just as he hod met her at the
masked ball. To fall upon his knees, and tell tier how
much ho thouirht of her since their separation, that Lis
thoughts had never left her devotedly, was as natural as
to breathe, ami be did so most gallantly ami sincerely,
" Shall I believe all you say f "
" let mc trove it by any test yon may put upon me."
" Know, then, the deling you avow are mutual. Nay,
uulooHe your arm from my waist, I have something more
to say.
" Talk on forever, lady. Your voice is music in my
tars.
" Would you marry me f knowing no more of mc than
" If you were to go to the altar masked," lie replied,
"Then I will test you."
"I low, lady?"
" For one year be faithful to the love you have profes
sed, and I will lie yours as truly as Heaven slmll spare
my lire r
" ( ), cruel, cruel suspense f "
Yon ik'mur."
" Noy, ludy, I sliall fulfill your injunction as I prom'
M."
" If at tlie expiration of a year yon do not lienr from
me, tlien tl contract shall be null ami avoid. Take this
hulf ring," slie continued ; " and when I supply tlie bro
ken portion, 1 will tie yours.
He kissel the little emblem, swore ngniu and again to
be faithful, ami pressing her hand to his lips, bade her
adien. lie was conducted away again niiiysleriouly
as lie had been brought thither, nor could he by any
possible mean discover where lie had In en ; his compan
ion rejecting all bribes, and even refusing to answer tlie
siinpkt question.
Months roll on. Colonel Merville is true to his vow ;
and happy In the anticipation of love. Suddenly he was
ordered to an embassy to Ykuna, the gayest of all the
European capitals, aliout the time that Nanokxin is
planning to marry tlie Arch Duchess Maria I)uisa.
The young colonel is handsome, manly, and already dis
tinguixlicd In arms and becomes at once a great favorite
at court j every effort being mode by tlie women to cap
tivate him, but In vain, he is constant and true to his
vow.
Hut his heart was not mode of stone ; the very fact
that he had entertained sneh tender leclings for the white
domino has doubtless mndc Lira more susceptible thim
before.
At last lie met the young Ilaroness Caroline Van
Waldorf!, and in spite of his vows she captivates him,
and he secretly curses the engagement he boil made at
Paris. She seems to wonder at what she believes to be
his devotion, and yet his sense of honor was so great,
that though lie felt be really loved tlie young Ilaroness,
and even that she returned his alTeetion, still lie had given
his word, and It was sacred.
The satin domino is no longer tlie ideal of his heart,
but assumes tlie most repulsive form in his imagination,
and becomes in place of his good angel Lis evil genius.
Well, time rods on j he is to return in a few duys ; it
is once more tlie carnival season, and in Vienna, too,
that gay city. I le joins in tlie features of the masked
ball, and what wonder fills his brain, when about tlie
middle of the evening the white domino steals before
him, in the same white satin dress he had seen 1st wear
a year before at the French Opera House in Paris.
Was it not a fancy T i
" I come, Colonel Kogcnc Merville, to hold you to
your promise, she said, laying her hnhd lightly upon
his arm
" Is this reality or a dream V, asked the amazed
soldier. .
" Come, follow me, and you shall see that it is a reali
ty," continued the mask, wcosantly.
. " I will"- " , , 5 -
" Have you been faithful to your promise ?" asked
the domino as they retired into a saloon. f
" Most truly in act, but alas, I fear not In heart." -
"Indeed." , , ,.
" It is too true, lady, that I have seen and loved
another, though my vow to you has kept me from say-
mg so w Mr."
" And who is this that vou thus love?"

not yet aten or beard of a solitary instance of rude con
dacU r even c ruW language, on tlx ir part 1 do not
bt lieve that any lire company, or body of New York
Volunteers, ever went out for a single day on a target
excursion, without exhibiting more "rowlyi?m H than
tlie whofc French army ! shown during tlie wbole or
this Italian campaign. Think owing partly, 1 presume,
to the natural poJilcoc of the Frenea character, for
it is part of a Frenchman nature never to encroach
upon tlie private rights or to wound the fceltngj of olh
er. Much of it is due also to the discipline of the
army, to its separate and Mattd motk? of exist'tice.
llie soklkv is taught to Vxk at tlie tamp for evivy
thing he nereis ; with the world outside he has nothing
w hatever to da He has no claims upon it, aud be has
never learned to make demand, or to ask favors, from
it. 1 saw tlree artilkt) av n at Castiglkw, who had
travelled to Ilresria and buck, thirty miles In a burning
sun, through blinding dust, and without a morsel to eat
for twenty hours. They were away from their ramp,
and without money, and could therefore get nothing. I
asked them if nobody had given them fowl. Tbey said
no, no one had known of their hunger, and tliey Jul
hvl likt lo al ! This dt os not answer to the popular
notion of pn invading anny,-whieh is generally snr
poacd to eat it Way through the country, scizinff what
ever it needs, and sweeping bore the region through which
it takes its desolating way. There have been no more
welcome or popular travtlen in Italy for years than this
French army. They march only on the high roadi j they
buy ol the peasants and merchants the cattle, poultry, fruit,
Ac, which theyjiave to sell, paying always full price
and in current coin 5 and if tliey hire carts, oxen, mule
or donkeys for purposes of transportation, tliey do it by
fair contract and with prompt pay. On tlie day after
the battle I met several peasants, who imiuired of me
the way to the Paymaster's office as tbey held written
warrants for small sums of money, for having brought
a load of wounded from the field to llic hospital. I fre
quently taw soldiers come, covered with dust and ready
to drop with fatigue, directly from the fiekl, into tlie lib
tic uijt of tlio place, and count out their sous with niont
scrupulous accuracy, for a drink of wine or a piece of
bread.
Anotlwr thing which struck me forcibly was the air
of iislifterenre will) which the soldiers seemed to treat
tlie whole affair of the fight. There was no nnearance
of exultation, no excitement, no indication whatever of
anything out of thu ordinary course of things among
them. 1 did not Itcar a shout, not a cheer, not a aonir
from them all. They acted as if they had done their
day's work, and were clad to rest a little : and that
was all. The whofo thing was nyanM by thcni as an
ordinary business transaction. The officer were not
liitc so indifferent nor did they take quite so common
pin e a view of the engagement ; tliey hud appreciated
it- importance, and probably understood its difficulties
1 u r than the men, and talked of it with correspond
ing warmth. Hut so fur as any show of Wig was
ei nccrned, 00 the part of llic troops you will never have
supposed they had been doing anything more than dig a
canul or remove trilling obstacles out of the road over
which they had found it neeessury to pass.
Nearly the whole French force, on the niirht after Sol
fcrino, encamped on tlie field of battle. Some of those
nearest the Castiglione came away a mile or so to ob
tain a clearer spot for their bivouac. Just at dusk an
officer of Zouaves rak' tin to a snliordinatc who was
standing near mc, ami told him to go at once and place
men about a certain Im4U win-re lie wislicd to encamp,
and not k t anybody else take it. He rode ofl and pre
cntly brought his nginient np the road to the spot. As
they urrivid tliey tumid off into the orchard which bor
dered the rood pitched tls ir tents, hitclied tls ir horses,
then clustered around tlie spot wImtc the catt le had lieen
slaughtered and dressed, and rmived tlicir allowance of
ment, and In rmunn hour their little urcs were blazing
ami raeh was preparing the mipjicr lor which his day's
work had, iloulitkus, riven himnneajrerappetite. 1 liercR
iim-nts that Were too far off for this, contented tberhsclvc
with clearing a space of the dead, with which the whole
field was ineumlx n il, and pnrtnking of such fare as could
motl readily ho brought up to them from lis' rear. The
followers ol un army, those I mean who are not actual
c onilmtanfo, though ranked as soldiers, lulmrcrs, Ac., Ac,
arc always very numerous ; and besidiM these, who are
counted as troop, there is always an immense number
of ptrsmrn who merely follow on with carts, hund-wagons,
Ac, fillet! willi cat able or drinkables for sale. Tliese
volunteers arc of gnat service after such an engagement,
and wlicnevcr there is any temjmrnry interruption of the
regular supplies. On the day 4 MolftTino esiieeially tlie
neeeRsilies of tlie troos were very great, as most of

The landau Duily News of the lL'th instant remarks
as follows npon the recent decree of the Sardinian Gov
ernment: " The Governor of Milan recently aniioiiited by Vic
tor Kmanuet, has issued a decree declaring that the samo
liberty of conscience and of religious teaching which has

valuable even as a means of national advancement and
civilization in the sight of deep thinking men, freedom
of worship and of education bos been established in all

government of tlie Provinces thus united should af
ford the earliest proofs in its power of the equal spirit in
which it undertakes its new obligations. A nobler evi

not give than this. There is do sectarian object to be
gained In Lombardy by tlie enactments of guarantees of
'soul liberty. There are no uisallectcd llugcnots to be

A few nights since, while the honest and peaceful ci
tiwns of this great metropolis were doning upon tbeir
pillows, and these only waked whom vice or crime kept
from similiter, a curious scene was transpiring in the
inner apartment ol ono of tlie moat fashionable and well
known faro banki in this city. The parties present were
not numerous. At one side of the table, andSit the right
of tlie deakr, sat a sertain well-ffnown Kentucky gen
tleman, now a resident of this city, and very popular as
an auctioneer, irppnmw to mm were two Clerks irom
dry good stores on 1 Ake street. At tlie foot of the tabk
were three young 'gentlemen connected with certain of
our city banks, and four professional funcy men. The
game commenced at 4 o clock in the afternoon. It was
now past 'A o'clock In tlie morning, and the contest was
kept up with nndiminislicd vigor. Fortune early In the
evening had declared for tho gentleman on the right of
the ileakT ; and although, luck occasionally deserted him.

He had up to this time won $18,000. The rxTsnira

men, and as tliey nervously laid down tlsir counters on
tlie squares, their hands shook with nn emotion they
eonid not conscai. iwcn mc practised cnomoss of the
profiwional gamblers ih'serted them, and they gnawed
their lips in undisguised nnxiety. Tlie Kculm ky gentle
man suddenly laid down cheeks to tlie amount of SMKXI,
and as the ik ak r liegan to draw out the cards Irom the
silver liox in which they lie, kit tho table, and walked
to the sidt lionrd. Tlie cards are dealt, and tlie f COOO
are hint! This reduces the winnings of the (V.hme! to

place. A tasty supper is taken ; tlie Cokwel proposed
to piny no mon-. i ik- ihihts onji-et ; uwy ure linn In

win their losses, which have been fearfully heavy, back

It is now fl o'clock. Day has liegiin to break, but the
thick enrliiiim ol the apartment keep out tlie strengthen
