THE DAY'S NEWS.

The full details of the news brought by the
Overland flail has at length arrived, and we devote
a coni,iderahle portion of this day's impression
with all that is interesting in the news. Taken
as a whole, the news is as satisfactory as could be
expected, an I much more encouraging than the
gloomy and 2 Icsponding would have led us to an-
ticipate. The total number of regiments which
had mutinied Madras presidency, was com-
puted at fury, and fully twenty had been dis-
banded. According to the last reports the
mutiny was as rife as ever, but most of the
reels had maae their way to Delhi. This city is,
no doubt, an important place, especially when we
consider that it is open to receive men and sup-
plies. Bnt many circumstances, political as well
as military, show that the natural aim of the
mutineers to make Delhi their head-quarters has
been of great advantage to us. Cot.fleting rumours
prevail that Delhi has fallen, but no authenti.:: in-
tellig ace 3neeting that event had reached the
Government. To meet and crush the mutineers
at Delhi, General Barnard was said to have had,
on the 16th of June, under his command,
something like 6,000 men. His siege train had
reached him on the Bth, so that he did not want
the 18-pounders to which Lord Ellenborough
alluded. He had determined to begin a hot fire
on the 9th, and it was probably against tL e batteries
of the besiegers that the fruitless sorties were made
on the 9th and 14th June. Sir John Lawrence,
with decision beyond praise, had sent up from

the Punjaub some of his best troops, and—
what is more—some of his best men—the
Chamberlains and Nicholsous. The quiet of
the Punjaub had rendered the resources of that
country, as one of the early writers expressed it,
"a mine of strength." Add to this, the passage of
regiments up the Ganges as high as Allahabad ;
the progress of the Bombay column to Mhow ; the
proximate arrival of the China Troops; the possi-
ble arrival of a regiment from the Mauritius or
the Cape; the fact that Calcutta was secured ; and
it will be seen that, barring the climate and the
coming rains, the position of Sir Henry Barnard
renders it not improbable that the next mail will
report some decisive results of this converging
pressure on the rebels.
The inteii:
Tence from China confirms the tele-
previously received. Admiral
graphic despZtchees
Seymour was proceeding in the work of capturing
the Chinese junks, and giving Highness the
Imperial Commissioner Yeh a further proo: that
England is in earnest upon the dispute in question.
From what has taken place in the Canton waters
we have little doubt but Lord Elgin will find his
task of arranging a fresh treaty one of short dura-
tion, and extremely little difficuby.
The steam-ship Arabia, which sailed from New
York on the 22nd ultimo, arrived here yesterday
forenoon, bringing 1,400 277 dollars and £3OO
specie on freight Of this 112,009 dollars go to
Havre, and 20,025 to London. The Arabia's news
is meagre and unimportant. The chief item
relates to renewed troubles in Kansas. Governor
Walker had issued a proclamation, in which
he says that the charter is set up not
only without authority of law, but in direct and
open defiance of the act of the Territorial Legisla-
ture. He then goes on to state wherein it contra-
venes the law, and recites the evils arising from
the proposed course of the inhabitants of Lawrence.
He stigmatises their acts as most iniquitous, and
ncessarily involving awful consequences. He says
—"you are inaugurating a rebellious revolution,
disregarding the laws of Congress and the Terri-
torial Government, and conspiring to overthrow
the Government of the United States in the Ter-
ritory. Your purpose, if carried into effect in the
mode designated, by putting your laws fc,,reihly
into execution, would involve you in guilt and in
the crime of treason. You stand upon the brink of
an awful precipice, and it is my duty to warn you
ere you take the fatal leap. I warn you, then, ere
it is too late, to recede from your perilous posi-
tion." He concludes thus —" It will be my
purpose, if you persist, to spare bloodshed as far
as practicable, and subject the leaders or the pro-
jectors of this revolutionary movement to the
punishment- prescribed by law. I will accompany
troops to Lawrence with the view of preventing
if possible, any conflict, and in the sincere hope
that the revolutonary movement contemplates
and nearly accomplished will, ere it it too late,
be abandoned." A late despatch from St. Louis
mentions that Gov. Walker was camped outside of
Lawrence, with eight companies of Dragoons, on
the 17th instant. The citizens had decided not to
negociate with him. They will not resist the troops
unless fired upon, when civil war will be declared.
Gov. Walker has warrants for the arrest of the
city officers and other citizens of Lawrence.
The West India Mail Steamer Parana reached
Southampton on Saturday night. We give in an
another column full details of the news. The
chief topic of public attention and discussion
related to the slave trade. The island was
healthy, and the mining intelligence satisfactory.
Cholera was prevalent in Demerara. The Court
of Policy had all but passed the Militia Bill.
Accounts from St. Thomas speak very strongly of
the ravages of fever in that island ever since the
West India mail steamers had made it their central
rendezvous.

The Continental intelligence this morning is not
of any moment. From Paris we learn that Col.
Barmann, for several years past Minister Plenipo-
tentiary of the Helvetic Confederation at Paris,
has given in his resignation, and that his decision is
announced as irrevocable. In January last M
Barmann proceeded to Berne for the same pur-
pose, and it required all the eloquence of the
President of the Federal Council and the entreaties
of some of the leading members of that body to
make him change his purpose. The Moniteur
publishes a decree promulgating the convention
recently concluded between France and the Grand
Duchy of Baden, for the construction of bridges
over the Rhine. By the first article of the conven-
tion, itis agreed that a mixed special commission,
formed of delegates of the two States, shall meet
at Carlsruhe or at Strasburg, as soon as possible,
in order to deterhaine, subject to the approbation
of their respective Governments, the different
points at which the interests of the two States
most imperatively call for the establishment on the
Rhine of new means of passage either by fixed or
flying bridges, Sze.; and by the second, it is decided
that a permanent bridge between Strasburg and
Kehl shall be immediately commenced, as being
indispensable for the extension of the commercial
ralations between France and Germany, and for
giving to the intenational conveyances of the re-
ipective railways every possible development.
Letters from the East again allude to the dissen-
sion that has arisen among the members of the
Greek Church in consequence of the foolish con-
duct of the Vicar-Apostolic and the French Consul
about imposing the Gregorian calendar. Rather
than submit to this wanton innovation, many of
the Greek Catholics have preferred becoming
Schismatics. At Beyrout, it would appear, the
bishop, priests, and the population of the
diocese have refused to recognise the Pope
any longer as head of the Catholic Church,
as the Court of Rome has not vouchsafed to
take any notice of the remonstrances addressed
to it against the forcible introduction of a nomen-
clature which is so contrary to their usages and
traditions.

Our local news this morning does not contain
much that is interesting or important: Two fires
took place yesterday, one in Mr. Alderman Bennett's
premises, in Sir Thomas's-buildings, and the other
in the establishment of Mr. Jackson, organ builder,
Camden-str‘et, London•road. The former was a
minor affair, but Mr. Jackson is said to have sus-
tained considerable damage. Yesterday the Rev.
J. Martineau preached his farewell 'sermon to his
late congregation, in Hope-street The esimation
in which this rev. gentleman was held by his flock
not only for his erudition as a scholar and a divine'
but his great moral worth as a minister of the
Gospel and a private citizen, attracted a large
congregation ; and the rev. pastor, having preached
a brilliant and deeply affecting discourse, bade his
hearers farewell. Sighs and sobs were audible,
and all present left the chapel fu;ly impressed with
the cenviction that Liverpool was about to lose the
ministerial services of one of its greatest divines.
The celebrated clipper ship Lightning, Captain
Enright, which sailed from Melbourne on the (.SAI
of May, arrived here on Saturday, with 32,856 UZ3.
of gold, valued at £131,500.

THE details of the news from India have
reached us, and we compile from Bonibay and
Madras files full particulars. Before noticing
the leading aspect of affairs in the Indian terri-
tory, we have to say that we were not wrong in
the opinion stated by us on Saturday, respecting
the final issue of the serious and important
struggle now going forward. Generally speak-
ing, the telegraphic despatches in anticipation
of the Overland Mail were tolerably correct
The principal feature that is new in the detailed
particulars just to hand is the movement which
has commenced to exhibit itself among the native
princes. However, we have not sufficient infor-
mation to enable us to form anything like a
definite opinion thereon. The arrest of the King
of Oude is fully confirmed, but upon what
charge we are left for the present t 0 conjecture.
