Napoleon, as we have seen, after having ordered him to bring back the army to France — an order which, had it been exe- cuted in time, might have changed the fate of the war — had unfortunately, after the successes of Montmirail, Charapaubert, and ]\Iontereau, commanded him to remain in Italy, where the prince successfully maintained his position, until Murat attacked him in the rear. He then despatched the Maucunc division to oppose the Neapolitans at the passage of the Po. The brave Maucune h...ad, in fact, routed them whenever they appeared, either alone or supported by the Austrians, and still continued to keep them in check, when positive intelli- gence of the occurrences at Paris reached Milan. Prince Eugene immediately consented to negotiate with Marshal Bellegarde, and on the 16th of April signed an armistice on the following bases : — The French troops scattered through Italy were to return to France Avith the honours of war, bringing away their materiel. The Italian army under Prince Eugene was to remain on the Po, and continue to guard the fortresses until the allied powers should have decided the fate of Italy.
