DAY.  TUL Y 16„ 1.059  THE DAY'S NEWS  In the Houses of Commons and Lords last night, ..no business of the least importance was transacted. We give a full report of the proceedings in both houses. We would direct ow the report in another column  'eaders attention to  The Paris 31o2ziteter of yesterday contradicts .a statement made in the Augsburg;Gazette, tothe effect that the reason that the Emperor Napoleon was se eager for peace, was that an incurable malady had broken out in the French Army. According to the Vienna correspondence received :this morning the Emperor of Austria left Verona for Vienna on Thursday evening. The despatch of reirforcements and ammunition for Italy has been stop9ud in. Austria, and the French Miniter of War has coentermanded the dep.artare of any more troops for the late seat of war ; and we are further informed that the French corps d'armee have commenced their countermarch. The other continental news is. not of any material importance. We may premise that the Vienna journals arc already speculating on the results for England of the relation established between France and Austria. An order of the day was published at Verona on the I2th, which says that Austria commenced the war for the main tenance of sacred treaties, relying on the devotedness of the people and the bravery of her army, and on her natural allies. Not having found allies, Austria -yields to an unfortunate political situation. The :Emperor heartily thanked the people as well as the army, " who have again shown that their Emperor  may confidently rely en their devotedness, if any new struggle should arise." According to a letter m the Times, from Rome, dated the 7th instant, the Pope had sent an autograph letter to the Emperor Napoleon, Ftatin g that he was determined to demand from the Roman Catholic powers an armed intervention. An interesting and important case came before the  Bankruptcy „__ ,ay. A bankruptcy docket was struck against Mary Todd and William Waddell Todd some time ago, but two creditors pntitiOned that the adjudication of bankruptcy made againSt them might be annulled. Mr. Commissioner Perry- delivered judgment yesterday, and as he considered that the proceedings in bankruptcy were concerted with the banki—upts, and without the , intention of ,doing more than obtaining .for them a discharge from their debts, and not with an honest desire of benefiting their several creditors, he therefore dismissed the  yestere  petition. Yesterday, at the police-court, the enquiry into the alleged murder at New Calabar, on board the  ship Faith, was resumed 'before Mr. Mansfield. Several witnesses were examined, and the accused, John Macintyre, was committed:S:3r trial on a .charge of •maaslaughter.. -Akease 'of -attempted: raurder 'm Leeds will "befound frill`-reported in another column.

Tins evening, according to announcement, the  Conservative, party celebrate the defeat of the late  ministry by a`banquetttiven to its chiefs. We can noVsay that the, directors of the fete would approve  so •apparently paradoxical a translation of their  motive ; but, seriously, we are anxious to do both them  heir leaders honour  Successes are sometimes  disasters ; as at Solferino.
