NEWS FROM INDIA.-The intelligence from British
India by the late arrival is con6rmatory of the for
intelligence of the fall of Delhi and the defeat of
the insurgents. Letters from Delhi under date of
June II, announce the capture of the City by the
British forces, with slaughter of upwards Of seven
thousand rebels. The rebels, it is stated fought
most desperately, but were driven back inch by nch
with frghtful carnage, until they were forced to
take refuge in the Palace. From this retreat, they
were speedily dislodged, and the city remained in
the hands of the British forces whose loss was
paratvely slight. This intelligence was firmly be-
lieved both in India and England but. in the sb-
sence Of official accounts it is yet impossible to ar
rive at satisfactory conclusion: there is, however,
apparently little reason to doubt the statements
which bear so strong semhlanoe of truth. Of
course if the fall of Delhi is fact beyound dispute,
the rebellion is virtually chrushed, the insurgents
having no other ralIYing.point,

Syrup of the Chinese Sugar Cane.


friend has sent US . sample of the syrup of the
Chinese sugar cane. extracted by Mr.. Albert John.
son, of this City. The juice was extracted by tenn
porary mill made by Mr.. johnson for the purpose,
and afterwards boiled dowr to syrup. Mr. John
sons process is to put in about three ounces of
Stacked lime, dissolved in water, to every twenty
five gallons of the juice and then boil down until the
proper thickness is obtained, skimming of the i'm
purties as they arise.
The stalks yield, II is stated, about half pint of
juice each and it is fair to presume that the juice
will yield about fifteen per cent Of syrup or mo.
lasses.
The sample sent is syrup rather than molasses.
The color is nearly that of honey, and it is sweet
and pure. 1t is indeed "good and pleasant to the
taste" Why may not our people now make their
own supply Of molasses?

At the last gubernatoral election the vote of
the State was thus divided:
Polk, 46,245
Ewing, 41O76

With these figures before him the editor of the
St Louis Republican remarks:
The candidate of the democratic party was put
upon the course in opposition to . well-ascertained
majority of over 81 900 in the State as shown in
the election of governor last August. 1t was sup
posed that no state of things could arise which
would bring about fusion between the Benton
men and the know-nothings, two parties up to that
time vrulently hostile to each other; and for this
reason no doubt, less exertion was made than 9TH
erwse would have been the case and to this cause
than anything else, is to be attributed the de-
feat of the democratic nominee. The figures show
that it is a close vote between the contendng can
didates and that half the exeron that was made on
the other side would have secured the triumph of
Col. Stewart"
The democrats have secured . decided majority
in both branches of the legislature of Tennessee

Sour majority in the legislature cannot be less
than nine in the house and five in the senate

Mr.. Stanly's Duplicity.

Mr.. Stanly endeavors to make the impression in
his letter of acceptance that he held while here the
same opinions on slavery which he now proclaims
in California. Can it be true that he was black
Republican at heart while in the service of the peo
pie Of North -Carolina? Such is the inference from
his letter. and such is the impression which he seeks
to make on the people of California.
Mr.. Stanly also denounces the repeal of the Mis-
souri, restriction as an "enormous outrage" He
he'd no such opinion while in this City on his last
and quite recent visit; or if he did, he strdiousy
concealed it. If We are not mistaken, he was invi-
ted while here during the last session of our State
Legislature, to partake of . public dinner, to be
given him by gentlemen of all parties as q mark of
their esteem for him as a native North Caronian !;
and we are sure that no such respect would have
been shown him If it had been known that his black
Republican opinions had been formed before he
went to California
Mr. Stanly gives striking evidence Of the gratitude
which he cherishes for his old constituents of the
Washington District, by his statement that he held
the same opinions slavery while he their rep
rescntative that he holds now. He would have the
world believe that they endorsed and sustained an
anti-savery man and embryo abolitionist; where
as there is portion of the State where slavery is
more profitable, where it is more vitality connect
ed with the existence of society. than it is in the

HoN. JAMES B. CLAY-Some of our K. N. cotem-
poraries appear to be greatly provoked at the elec-
ton of James B. Clay to Congress, and especially
at the late festival at Ashland in honor of his tri
umph. The Wilmington Herald, speaking of this
festival, says "the scene is revolving. We cannot
dwell upon-it. 1t was enough to have made the
grand old statesman burst his cerements, and scat.
ter in Gismay the sacriegious ntruders." All this
is decidedly fanciful Who believes that the "grand
old statesman if he had lived to this day, would
have bowed his proud soul and his majestic person
amid the recesses of the Know Nothing culvert :
His son John is no doubt doing what his father
would have done under similar circumstances.
DEATH OF EUGENE SUE.--Eugene Sue, the French
novelist, died in Paris on the Sd instant He was
about 49 years of age. His earlier works attracted
no great attention but in 1s43 he brought out his
Mystsries Of Pdris and year or two afterwards his
Wandering Jeo, and these works at once gave him
q world wide reputation They were read every
where with the greatest avidty, and the enormous
sales soon rendered him = wealthy man. He lived
in the most luxurious style, which Was probably the
cause of his early death.
