THE DAY'S NEWS According to the statements made by the passengers per the Overland Mail, Delhi has fallen. They say, that in the B3zaars at Bombay, such a report was very generally believed in, and as intelligence is received in the Bazaar some days before official intelligence, there may, perchance, be some truth in the rumours. When the passengers lett Madras, all the Europeans in that Presidency were well armed. The atrocities com mitted by the natives were of a most diabolical character, and we publish the particulars, so fares at present are known, of outrages committed upon six ladies. From what transpired, it was surmised that the rebels were. in communication with the :King of D .Ihi. The King of Oude was certainly leagued with them, as on his arrest, 1,700 armed men were found about his residence, though according to treaty, he was not allowed one armed attenUant. The Globe of last night says that the whole of the large force placed under orle s for India before the arrival of the last mail will have embarked by the end of this week. It has since been determined, substantially, to increase reinforcements and along with some addition to theßoyal Artillery fore, two regiments of Cavalry and four of Infantry will be immediately planed under orders for the East. The - 7th Hussars will be sue of the Cavalry Corps, the other is not yet kiown, but either the 4th or sth Dragoon Guards will probably be chosen. The Infantry regimen's fur this ser‘ice , are, the 56th, , 86th, and 72nd Highlanders, and another not yet .determined on, but which, in all likelihood, will be 'the 441 h Regiment. They will be made up to 1200 each. In consequence of the large artillery force being sent out, Major-General Dupius will proceed in command of that branch of the army, and we presume from the great increase to the European troops, that some of the colonels of the army will be app9inted to the command of brigades with the temporary rank of Major-General. The House of Commons had an early sitting yesterday, at which the Burial Acts' Amendment Bill went through committee, and was ordered for a second reading. A clause was made by Mr. THE NORTHERN TIMES.-LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5. 1857, Knight, the object of whicL was that the Burial Boards, instead of the Secretary of State, should have the power to make arrangements respecting burials, but it was negatived without a division The commitiee of the House to consider the Oaths' Bill was then struck. The committee conssts of Lord Palmerston, Sir George Grey, Mr. Disraeli, Mr. Walpole, Sir John Pakington, Lori John Russell, Sir James Graham, Mr. Gladstone, the Attorney-General, the Solicitor-General, Sir F. Kelly, Lord Stanley, Mr. Horsman, Mr. Henley, Mr. Roebuck, Mr. Malins, Mr. Headlam, the Attorney-General for Ireland, the Lord Advocate, Mr. Dillwyn, Mr. Napier, Lord Robert Grosvenor, Mr. Whiteside, and Mr. Cobbett. The quorum of the committee was fixed at nine ; Lord John Russell had proposed.three, but this was received with derision. The Divorce Bill then went into committee. The report of the committee to inquire into the allegations made by Mr. Bertolacci has been issued. It is decidedly against Mr. Bertolacci. The com mittee, think, however, that that gentleman has throughout the whole of his connection with the Duchy, acted in error. The wind-up of the report is as follows :—" In conclusion, your committee are opinion, that the presentation of this petition should not prejudice the present position or future prospects of Mr. Bert olacci, still less ought it to derogate from former claims; for your committee are clearly of opinion that, throughout, even when he was most clearly in error, Mr. Bertolacci acted bona . fide according to the sincere conviction which was deeply seated in his mind, that in his person the privileges of the office of auditor of the Duchy of Lancaster had been infringed." At the Cheater Assizds, yesterday, Mr. Lewis, solicitor and clerk to the magistrates at Wrexham and part proprietor of the Wrexham Telegraph, of the TVrexham and DenbighshireWeekly Advertiser, brought an action against Mr. Bayley, proprietor for libel. Damages were laid at £lOO. After a long hearing the jury returned a verdict of £lO damages. Locally, there is but little of importance. Mr. Keogh, in the Police Court yesterday, made an attack upon the crimps and touters of certain attorneys practising in that court. To-day the Quarterly meeting of the Town Council will be held. At this meeting the question respecting the Pike water is to be discussed, but we suppose it will be adjourned, and a separate day set apart for its especial benefit. Our acivices from the Continent continue in teresting. The Ministerial crisis at Constantinople is a serious affair, which will not merely influence the fate of the Principalities, but perhaps also that of the Suez Canal scheme. As far as the Princi palities are concerned, a communication from Vienna seems to indicate that Austria is already falling off from England. It would be deplorable enough should the clumsy operations of Lord de Bedcliffe and Baron Prokesch, which consisted in deceiving the Sultan on one hand and disregard ing the wishes of the Principalties on the other, and in establishing the very thing they are strug gling to prevent—the mischievous influence of Russia and France on the Lower Danube. There is sore hope, however, in a communication from Berlin, which says that Prince Gortschakoff has not succeeded in bringing the Prussian Government altogether over to the views of Russia and France, and that Baron Manteuffel has recommended that the Moldavian elections be not immediately an nulled, but that the matter as it stands should be referred to another meeting of the Paris conference. The Emperor and Empress of the French are to embark at Havre this evening, and will arrive at Osborne early on Thursday morning. Intelligence from Portugal, of the 30th ult., states that an important manufactory of bad coin has been discovered in Oporto, with branch estab lishments over the country. Several members of the Portuguese clergy of high position are impli cated in this affair. An article by M Guizot, in the Revue des Deux Blondes, is attracting much attention. It is en titled "Belgium and King Leopold in 1857," and comments on the recent disturbances in Belgium, provoked by the aggressive policy of the Catholic clergy. M. Guizot considers that the tendency of this policy has been vastly exaggerated, and he warmly advises the liberal party in Belgium to forbear breaking with the clerical party. We have later news from the Brazils by the arrival of the Petropolis at Southampton. The news is of no great importance. H. B. M.'s Vice-Consul, Mr. Thomas . Gpattn c 4,“ L .be i e u ti China, sixteen in number, had arrived at Rio Janeiro, and would leave on the 3rd July for Java. The heavy portion of the Indian mails arrived at Southampton yesterday in the C)lumbo. Among her rassengers were Sir William Read, governor of Malta. The screw-steamer City of Washington, which was to sail• from New York on the 23rd ult., was off Queenstown yesterday morning. She will in all likelihood arrive here in the course of this fore noon. She will bring one day's Jater news. THE admission of the Baron RonrscuiLD into the House of Commons, as representative for the City of London, has assumed a new phase. Lord Jour; RUSSELL has had recourse to another move, which, if successful, must upset his new Oaths Bill." We confess we cannot understand the manoeuvres of his lordship on this great and important question. We believe that it was all but settled that Baron ROTHSCHILD should have presented himself at the early sitting of the House on Monday, and claim to be sworn, and take his seat—the oath to be administered in a manner which he should deem most binding on his conscience—and in the event of his being ordered to withdraw, Elen Mr. DILLWYN was to move that he should take his seat by virtue of a special resolution. But the Baron was dissuaded from the adoption of this course lest it should in any way interfere with Lord JOHN'S movements.. Now, it is matter of regret that there should be such hesitancy and doubt manifested by the advocates of Jewish Emancipation. Not only are the electors of the city of London enthusias tic and earnest iu the matter, but the nation at large would hail with delight the removal of this last remnant of political intolerance and ecclesiastical tyranny. Can there be any hope of this being brought about by the steps which Lord JOHN RUSSELL is taking ? There seems to be a want of true courage in pushing the matter to a final issue. His proposal of appointing a Select Corrimittee of the House of Commons to inquire into the objects and interpretation of the several clauses of the Act of 5 & 6 WILLIAM IV., cap. 62, is a novel mode of legislating upon what is universally admitted to be a political grie'vance of magnitude. It has all the appear ance of an excuse for delay, and a desire to provoke gratuitous and uncalled-for discussion. We do not wish to put a bad construction upon the public acts of senators, nor attribute to them a desire to do anything that will tadr the progress of civil and religious liberty, At the same time, we confess that the cause of which Baron ROTHSCHILD is the champion cannot be expected to make much progress, if left to Lord Jost/ RUSSELL, or the solons of Westminster He. On Mond a y night, there was a somewhat lengthened debate on Lord JOHN moving his resolution for the select committee alluded to. But what was the sum and substance of all that his Lordship advanced in support of the motion ? Nothing more than a statement of his general opinion—an insinuation of the power of the Act, which in his dilemma he had discovered, and an enticement to Sir FREDERICK TIIESIGHER to make another display of his forensic talents, by the delivery of a speech which was singularly remarkable for a tedious and uninteresting expo sition of legal and technical obstacles, mingled with sneers at Lord JOHN RUSSELL for the tor tuosities of his conduct on the question, as well as the inopportune period he had selected for the contemplated investigation. These views were received by some few other third-class members, and Lord PALMERSTON made a declaration of his intentions on the subject, which, by the way, was anything but satisfactory. There was an absence of a hearty appreciation of the motion, and no great anxiety manifested for the removal of J ewish disabilities. In fact, any one reading his Lordship's few commonplace remarks would be inclined to think that he did not scare a straw whether Baron ROTHSCHILD should ever be a Commoner of England de facto, provided he could continue to retain possession of the Treasury Benches. The upshot of the debate was the appointment of the committee in question. The constitution of the committee was next the subject for a formalistic squabble; and when Mr. NEWDEGATE had raised a hue and c.y about ignoring some two hundred members belonging to the Conser vative side of the House from the committee, the matter was adjoUrned until last night. The debate was again resumed, and our readers will find the constitution of the committee, as finally agreed upon, in our parliamentary report of last night's proceedings. We cannot indulge in any very sanguine hope that the committee now appointed will be able to advance the matter one single iota beyond the position in which it now stands. The interpre tation of an obscure act of parliament by a number of gentlemen who hold different and deep-rooted opinions, cannot] enlighten the House. While Lord JOHN RUSSELL may con tend that that special act is strictly applicable to• Baron ROTHSCHILD'S case, Sir FREDERICK THESIGER will stoutly deny the -position ; and Mr. MALINS, Sir RICHARD BETHEL, and Mr. J. D. FITZGERALD will find their ideas and inter pretations of law controverted inch by inch by Mr. NAPIER and Mr. WIIITEIDE. Indeed, from the fact that Sir FREDERICK THESIGER risked his professional reputation by stating that Lord JOHN'S vaunted discovery would turn out a mare's nest, and the ATTORNEY-GENERAL declining Lord lOFIN'S appeal as to the correct ness of the construction of the 5 and 6 Wm. IV., we regard the constitution of the committee as unsatisfactory, and that their report will be a legal Babel—the opinions of many men, of different minds, views, and principles. It now • • .••••••• f 011 1 ,45.1 Laavu MAIL , take his seat before the commencement of the next Session. TRE REBELLION IN INDIA WITHOUT' A. limin.—Even with arms in their hands, men without organisation, and without a leader, are a mere mob and- net an army ; they are, therefore, easily overthrown when a disciplined force, greatly inferior to them lu numerical strength, is opposed to them—hence the force of the following observations from the pen of one of our leading merchants, who says, in writing ta- his house in .Liverpool—" I am quite of opinion that there is no "head " over the disaffected in India, and that their present success results from the large acquisition of plunder, but the possession of this will only add to•the weakness of the: rebels who,: having not leader and no great object to serve, will quarrel amongst themselves, and thus speedily help us to settle matters." REPitESZNTATIoN OF MAYO.—There is a - singular report afloat in reference to the election of a member for the county of Mayo. In consequence of certain notorious proceedings which took place at the last election, as proved before a committee of the House of Commons, the writ has been suspended, and wilt not be issued until the commencement of the next :sessioo, which wi 1 probably be in February. Shortly afterwards—namely, at the March assizes—the Rev. Peter Conway and the Rev. Luke Ryan, aro to be tried for the part they took in the riots alluded to. Now it is said that the difflculties . arising out of this state of affairs will be amicably settled. The offlcial wrath of the Attorney-General for Ireland will be appeased, Archbishop M'Hale will have the nomination for the county, the government will gain a supporter in the room of Mr. George Henry Moore, who has been - unseated, and the priests will get off scot free. At first sighi, it would appear that such a thorough reconciliation is impracticable, and yet it is to be brought about in the simplest possible way. Mr. John Patrick Soniters has lost his seat for Sligo, and he is to be put into Mayo by the joint interest of the Prime Minister and the Archbishop of Tuam. The prelate is to recommend Mr. Somers to the electors, the government is to exert all the interest they possess to secure his return, the prosecution of the priests will be abandoned, and it will be " under consideration" whether the government cannot take under their paternal care some measure of tenant right in the course of next session. This admirable scheme is said to owe its origin to the fertile genius of the right hon. gentle i man who is always ready to extricate Cue government from any scrapes into which they may fall.—london paper. How FORTENE4 ARE MADE IN AMEUCA.—From a New York paper we extract the following interesting para graph :—" I. M. Singer and Co., have leased fa a term of years 'he large marble building at tb. south-east corner of Broadway and Grand.street, and have fitted up the lower floor at a cost of over 6 ,000 dols,asan instructiim, sales,and show wow. This is beyond question the aneat establiel merit of the kind ever seen, and reflects infinite credit on the enterprising proprietors, whose income from the sale of sewing machines, during the past year, has been over 200,000 dols, with a promise of still more flatering results in the future. The Singer Machine for heavy Wirth:P., work and general manufacturing purposes, stands .ir . the front rank, and the manufactory register of machines numbers about 12,000 already stint out. The !ianufactory is at the corner of Centre and Frank]Yß-- s t reets, emp l oys about 200 hands, and is capable of sap-eiyin.. at least 125 machines per weak. In addition, The formtr sale rooms, at No. 328 Broadway, are now p; se d f or rdiosting the ma machines preparatory for ex.':Jibition and sale. The ma chines range Prioes fi:om 125 dole. to 165 dole., and number from Ito 3. Of the large number sold not more than one-fourth are of the smaller size for family use ; full three-fourths being used for heavy work and general manufacturing purposes. Another item in the business of the establishment is the sale of Linen Thread and Silk, specially manufactured for use on these machines. The profits on this item alone last year, amounted to over 15,000 dots. Messrs. Singer and Co. have just obtained an injunction restraining the manufacture and sale of the single thread chain-stitch ten-dollar sewing machine, which is an infringement upon Singet's single-thread machine, perfected some three years ago. The 10 dol. machine is the same in principle as a machine invented in France some foity years since for stitching letters on the ends of flue French broad cloths, making a stitch that will wash out and unravel usually long before a garment is worn out— results which compelled Messrs. Singer and Co. to aban don their manufacture after a brief trial. Of the other noted Sewing Machine manufacturers at present occu pying the market, Masse. Grover and Biker furnish a very elegant machine from 75 do's. to 150 dole. in price. Fur the manufacture of bags this machine is unequalled , as its stitch is peculiarly adapted to this kind of work. These machines, from the peculiar manner of constructing the stitch, take up about twice as much thread or silk to the yard of seam as Singer's or Wheeler and Wilson's. Grover and Biker's manufactory is in Boston, employs about 200 men, can turn out 100 machines per week, and has already manufactured over 8,000 machines. Wheeler and Wilson's machines are eepecielly adapted for the finer kinds of work usM in the family, and for the manufac turing of gentlemen's and ladies' furnishing articles. These machines work more rapidly, with less friction and with a greater economy of thread than moat if not all others, and vary in price from 100 dole, to 150 dole,, and number from Ito 3, No. 2 being the family machine. This company have recently purchased the property of the Jerome Clock Company at Bridgeport, Cann., to which they have added extensive improvements and enlargements, including com plete sets of newly invented machinery for the manufacture of the different parts of their machines, on the principle in use in the United States Armories, by which means every part may be used on any single machine. This company have invested a capital of about 400,000 dots, and when their establishment is in full operation they will be able to manufacture 500 machines a week should the demand e. quire it. Their sales last year amounted to over 600,000 dol , , an thus far give promise of exceeding 1,000,003 dole for the corning year. All of these manufacturers are licensed by Mr. Elias Howe te use his patent needle. Singer and Co., paid Mr. Howe over 30,000 dole.. last year. Grover and B , ker, and Wheeler and Wilson each nearly as mech. Tnis patent expires in 1800, after which aewing machines will be somewhat cheaper. IRON 1. 1 . WOOD.—INCREkSE OF TTIR gT2AM AIAMNE OF GREAT BRITMN.—TII3 New York Daily Times save : " Bat few of our commercial men, perhops, are aware of the extent to whi3la , British capitalists are embarking in the construction of iron steam-propellers fur ocea❑ service. This great interest was but partially developed before the late Russian war, but that war gave an impetus to this branch of the British steam marine, which threatens to largely supersede us ii the p tss-nger a•ld light freight business. As evidenca , ;f this, we hive bit to rerer to th.? rocent establishment of• a new British line of s`esmer s between Southampton and Bremen, also between New Yurk and Glasgow, and New York and Liveroool, these steamers sailing for the several ports semi-weekly from New York. This has excited no little alarm in the minds of those largely interested in the carrying trade. The puckat-ship Colombia, of the old Black Ball line of Liverpool packets, whose regular saling day was the first of July, has not yet been able to complete her engagements for a full•cargo. This line has been cele brated for punctuality in sailing upon the days advertised :This is the first instance in thirty years that any ship of that line has had to lay over for so long a poi iod after the .regular day of sailing; this will give some idea of the great depression of tha commerce of this port. At this moment there are no less than three hundred steam propellers ranging from one thousand to fifteen hunirel tons, build ing on the Clyde and in the ports of Great 13ritian. Tho steam-engine buildere were never more busy than at the present time, and welearn that Napier, tha celebrated steam engine builder, has more work engaged than can be he him tnr. • three re,irc to eirae. Wrree DOCTORS- DISAGREE.—The Phis corresponden t of an American journal su?plies the following bit of medical gossip : —" Some-fifteen years ago, Dr. Horace Green, of New York, suddenly acquired a great reputation in that city in the cure of aphonia (loss of voice), laryngitis (inflammation of the throat), and laryngeal phthisis (one of the forms of eonsnmption), by the direct application to the larynx (windpipe) of a strong solution of lunar caustic. The application wasmade by means of a small spoageattached to the end of a curved piece of whalebone, an instrument called, in surgery a probang. This instrument the doctor professed to have pushed into the larynx, even as far down as the bifurcation of this organ into it, two brouchi , .l branches. He gained a large practice in the class of diseases in which this real or pretended application was salutary, and published a book on the subject, which, aside from the question of the introduction or non-introduction of the probang, is recognised in the Faculty of Paria, and I believe also in that of New York, as a work of great merit. When the book arrived in France it was carefully read by those Professora who make of disease of the throat a special study. Among these, Professor Trousseau, one of the leading men in the Faculty of the School of Parte, and the leading man in France on' diseases of the throat, declared that the operation of introducing the prebang of Dr. Green into the, throat of the living subject was impossible, an& on the dead almost impossible. Dr. Green professed to have done it many hundred times successfully.; Dr. Trousseau professes to have tried it very many times, and to have seen it tried very many times by the most skilfnl surgeons of Paris, and uniformly without success. The question was discussed in the journals and academies, and a verdict pronounced that the operation of Dr. Green was impossible, and had never been performed. Tnis verdict went back to the United States, and gave rise to a discussion there. As late as two years ago the Academy of New York appointed a committee to decide on the question, and this committee, after seeing Dr. Green operate, and after collecting all the evidence within their reach, decided by a majority to report against Dr. Green, while a minority reported in his favour. The question, for the profession of New York, therefore, remains undecided. A few days ago Dr.Trousseau,while lecturing on an operation of trachootomy (his two hundred and fifth operation of the same kind I) for the relief of croup, referred to the operation of Dr. Green, and spoke in the following words in regard to that operation :—" The learned Professor denied that anybody, anywhere, ever introduced, after Dr. Green's method, the sponge probang into the larynx, A student of Dr. Green's, said M. Trousseau, who was ben two years ago, a gentle. man who professed to understand perfectly Dr. Green's method, who had himself practlsed the operation under Dr G.'s eyes, attempted to perform the operation here, in this hospital, at m y request. He failed entirely; his probang arrived on the opening into the larynx, wts pressed there, and then passed on into the ce.ophagus (the canal leading leas) the s'omacb.) I convinced him of the fact, I have, tried this operation, very often, continued M. TrovAseau, after the directions of Dr. Green's Treatise oq ite subject. I hail tried it long before the - appearance 'af that Treatise, both on the living and on the dead subject. I have put all the good will possible into my experiments, and I have never been able to succeed. More than this, I have convinced myself that the operation after this method is impossible, and that it has never been ac complished by Dr.:Green or any one else." Now, then, with the best disposition towards Dr. Green, and with a desire to claim for American surgery and for an American physician this great discovery in the healing art—for, if true, its importance is such as to mark for it an epoch in the history of the art—l must confess that I felt Staggered by the positive declaration of M. Trousseau. Dr. Trousseau and the profession of France declared the operation impossible. Dr. Green and a minority of the profession of of New York declare it possible. Dr. Green has acquired reputation and a position as Professor in a respectable school in New York, by this specialty ; his position is known in France, and yet here, believ ing his pretended operation an imposture upon the honourabie profession of which he is a member, he passes for a charlatan, and thus, as a professor in a respectable American school, brings a stigma upon the whole profession of his country. The passage of a sponge through the opening of the windpipe either can or cannot be done. A great stigma or a great honour belongs to American surgery, according to the negative or affirmative of the question. The question has arrived at a point where it can no longer go undecided. The words of Dr. Trous seau, quoted above, aro the declarations of the profession of France, thrown out to the Faculty of New York. Dr Green himself, and the Faculty of New York as well, owe it to themselves, after this speech of M. Trousseau, to endeavour to put this dispute once for all at rest. Either Dr. Green ought to be discarded from the profession and from his high position, or he ought to be declared and proved to be entitled to the honour of this important discovery. THE COURT, &c.

AMUSEMENTS, &c. ZooLoorcAr. GARDENS- 7 1f any corroboration of what we, have already stated, iegzrding the spirited enterprise of Mr. Atkins, the proprietor of these favourite gar • dens, were required, we might refer to the fact that he has succeeded in arranging with the celebrated Delavanti family, and Mr. Wallett, the renowned jester. These were before a Liverpool public some two months past, at Hengler's circus, and caused quite a sensation in the pub lic mind at the time. Mr. Atkins has so arranged that the public can, at the lowest passible expense. have an opportunity of witnessing these gifted artistes, but it must be remembered that their stay is short, and when the publicare made aware of that fact, and the excellence of the entertainment affordr,d them, no doubt they will avail themselves of the opportunity to enjoy as rare and rich a treat as was ever offere I them. 7S AM COWLLL'S CONCERTS.—On Saturday evening Mr. Cowell brought his " last" visit to a close by one of the most successful and crowded concerts he has given.

During the past week, Miss Anna Maria Quin, a pretty and remarkably intelligent little girl, of not more than thirteen years of age, who has achieved extraordinary success as a juvenile actress throughout our Australian colonies, made her debug in the old personation piece of " The Actress of All Work." Tom Taylor's comedy of the " Victims," con tinues to be as successful as ever, in which Mr. Bucksto'ne, Miss Reynolds, and Miss Lavine come in for a pretty considerable share of applause. The " Victims" is also continued this week; and the "veteran of the stage," Mr. T. P. Cooke, re-appears in Douglas Jerrold's play of " Black Eyed Susan," sustaining his original character of William, and Miss Lavine will play the part of BNB Peter, singing several songs, and, amongst them, that of "All in the Downs? This lady having been a general favourite during the whole of so long a season, ne doubt, in conjunction with Mr. Cooke, the piece will, at the present time, have a particular charm to 0 metropolitan audience. Mr. Henri Drayton has taken the Theatre Royal, St• Helier's, Jersey, where, with Mrs. Drayton, he purposes to perform those little Operatic Proverbs which have heel so much admired in London and Liverpool.
